Summary

Guests

Notes

Film

  • Starts with Leia asking C-3PO what is Wicket saying; ends with the ships jumping to lightspeed.
  • All the "-wings".
  • First time we see the Falcon flying in this movie.

Podcast

  • C-3PO acting as a translater. There should be no need for Leia to ask what is being said.
  • Listener Projects: Make a 20 minute music video of Yak Face with Yakety Sax.
  • Alien languages in the the Original Trilogy vs. foreign accents in the Prequels.
    • Characters being spoken to in an alien language, but then replying in English.
  • Nien Nunb
    • Smuggler from Sullust.
    • Spice Mines of Kessel.
    • Speaks Sullustese.
      • Unaltered Tanzanian Haya dialog, which was understood by audiences in neighboring Kenya.
    • How to pronounce his name.
      • Nien Nunb vs. Ten Numb.
  • Other listener project: edit in party horns for Admiral Ackbar's mark.
  • Ackbar's chair
  • Rudy Vallee and magaphone crooning
Tony's mom sent away for the Nien Nunb figure.
Tony went through a brief phase where he got rid of all his Star Wars toys and has since had to re-acquire them. He bought some here at SW Celebration.
There was only one survivor of the toy  purge: his Luke Skywalker Stormtrooper Disguise figure.
Tony was 5, the perfect age, when this came out, so he doesn't hate the Ewoks.
  • Star Wars Minute: Weekend Edition.

Meta Minute

  • 22:31 podcast episode length.
  • Cold Open: plug for Star Wars Minute: Weekend Edition.
  • The Mon Calamari live in water, and are amphibious.
  • Alex is correct; according to Wookieepedia, species like the Wookiees are able to learn to understand Basic, but are physically unable to speak it.

Quotes

  • Pete: I thought you said 20 minutes of "Yakety Sax".
