Jackie quotes put a gopro on that bomb.
On some of the bombs in the Cobalt hammer there are things written by the crew in Aurobesh. (just [https://www.wearethemighty.com/mighty-trending/writing-funny-messages-bomb-ammo/ like crews did during WWII].
One has a smiley face, one says hi snoke, and another says Han says hi
Propagandizing Han’s return to the Resistance. Lionizing old generals (when their real lives might not be so glamorous nor so black and white).
Maybe putting “Han says hi” on a bomb is like the Star Wars equivalent of ‘’’[[Wikipedia: Kilroy_was_here|Kilroy was here]]’’’.
Tallie (Tallissan Lintra)
Reminder: she is from Pippip 3.
Ridiculously, she has a sister named Kallie Lintra.
She is the Wedge of the sequels in terms of background character fan interest, but not so much in terms of surviving the trilogy :’(.
Where does “bombs away” come from? See also: “fire in the hole”
 
Leia is traumatized every time she sees something/somebody blow up because of Alderaan. Or is she just sort of collapsing in relief like Admiral Ackbar after the destruction of the super star destroyer?
Alex quotes (in admiral acbar fishy voice) <sighing> Ohhh. I’m a tired fish.
She’s mad because Poe squandered the squadron.
Canady is sneering to the last. How it would have been different if Canady was instead regretting the life choices that brought him here. It would humanize him, kind of like how we learned Stormtroopers are really just kidnapped children forced to fight. It’s humanizing bad guys that we’re supposed to be able to hate with impunity. Jackie doesn’t approve; it’s good that he sneers.
What Alex wants his last words (or his epitaph) to be. Pete wants his to be “poodoo”.
Alex quotes (to Pete) not just “DNR” but actually “TNT” is what it should say on your chest.
The exploding dreadnought takes a long time and many parts blow up individually. Will we ever see an instantaneous explosion like we had with Death Star 1 again? We have the technology to see the individual parts exploding. Compare the short of Canady sneering to the last shot of Tarking.
Meta-notes terminator Tarkin mashup?
The death star has great buildup and sudden release, as opposed to in more modern movies.
was watching the background extras trying to pretend like they’re busy: Again compare to the background extras aboard home one.
Pete quotes There’s a human here in the room, I’m not going to say which one of us it is.
resistance monitor is his only character name (jonathan hardin) not a cameo, just a working actor.
Alex quotes so Jackie you’re a famous person…Jackie <laughs>
Who would Jackie want to be if she had a cameo in star wars? She’d be fine with a bunch of prosthetics on her knees for half a day.
Stand up comics in the Mandalorian
What she’d really want to be is a voice for star wars lower decks. Mentioned: Lazlo from ‘’Real Genius’’.
Meta notes as of February 2021 there is no real genius minute
Jackie quotes i have sort of that your favorite aunt energy. She could be Rey’s aunt.
Pete quotes she [Rey]'s like “yeah i have no family. Oh! except for my aunt Jackie”
Pete and alex make the same joke at the same time (link to saying the show closer in sync)
Pete quotes as soon as the chips are ahoy
Why does the bomber crash once the bombs are gone? Simply Because the pilot is dead?
See note before about the wekness of the planet’s gravity at that distance.
The alignment on the StarFortress pulls a little to the left. The resistance cant afford regular maintenance.
The little x-wing checklist kind of status screen. Mentioned: Battleship, Gorf.
Jackie will be back tomorrow.
