Summary

Part IV of the closing credits

Guests

Chris Radtke

Notes

Film

  • The penultimate minute.
  • Credits, credits, credits: starts with the credit for Roy Arbogast (Sy Snootles' husband), and ends with all the guys who played ewoks.

Podcast

  • Radtke is back! He's a precedent-buster.
  • The alleged impropriety between Lucas and Annie Arbogast (Sy Snootles).

Ewok Credits

  • Two Peters (both Ewoks).
    • Peter Mandell
    • Peter Burroughs, the Swingin' Ewok.
      • Little person stuntman and Warwick Davis' father-in-law.
        • We have warm feelings for Warwick.
  • Felix Silla: Twiki the robot (Buck Rogers) and Cousin Itt (The Addams Family).

Other credits

  • David Fincher, asst. cameraman in the effects dept. (before he was the David Fincher).
    • Favorite David Fincher films.
  • Covering the Peters.
    • Peter Romano: the go-to guy for underwater photography.
      • Lives in a submarine or underwater lair (Editor's note - this is probably untrue, but we can't confirm).
    • Peter Amundsen, effects editor.
  • Having actors doing all the sound and special effects.
  • Joe Johnston, who also directed many well-known movies.
    • Lucas paid for him to go to UCLA film school

Meta Minute

  • 27:42 podcast episode length.
  • Alex mispronounces Roy Arbogast as "Rob Arbocast".
  • Brian Bonsall is a former child actor best known to nerds as Worf's son that he almost never mentions (from Star Trek).
  • The Lucas-Arbogast connection was first mentioned during the Lapti Nek minute.
  • Actress Saffron Burrows was in Deep Blue Sea.
  • According to Wikipedia, Warwick Davis met the Burroughs family during the filming of Willow and three years later married Samantha Burroughs.
  • Not talking about The Phantom Menace was a running joke behind the scenes on the podcast.
  • Although Pete Romano did underwater photography for a bazillion movies, this is his only Star Wars credit.
  • The Wizard of Oz (1939) and Gone With the Wind (1939) were both directed by Victor Fleming.

Quotes

  • Alex: (re: the first rule of Fight Club) Don't talk about that! Pete: Aww. Wait, about which? Alex: Either one. Chris: The Phantom Menace. Seriously guys, you're making a terrible mistake.
  • Pete: Ronzani and Romano, Peters at law.
  • Alex (as George Lucas) and then Pete: (repeating) Sio Bibble, you're the bongo.
  • Pete: *flibbing his lips* I'M PETER ROMANO!
