Notes

Film

  • Starts with Padmé comforting Ani in the Lars family garage, and ends with the family standing around sadly at the funeral of Shmi.
  • "To be angry is to be human".
  • First time a character cries (episode number order).
  • There are three graves. One is smaller than the others.

Podcast

  • Referenced: "All Star" by Smash Mouth.
  • Padmé is encouraging Anakin to embrace his anger, and the Emperor's theme cuts back in. Possible manipulation by Sheev?
  • +1 to John Williams and Ben Burtt.
  • Anakin is trying to convince himself that he's a Jedi and that means certain things.
    • The disconnect between concept and execution.
  • Who knows about Anakin killing the Ghorfas and the while 'Shmi' thing?
  • Characters crying in Star Wars. Mentioned: Malakili.

The funeral

  • Who the gravestones belong to:
  1. Shmi.
  2. Cliegg's first wife (Aika).

Meta Minute

  • 28:51 podcast episode length.
  • Pi(e) day!

Quotes

  • Alex: (as pirate-voiced Cliegg) As soon as I heard her name was 'Shmi' I was "Shmitten".
