Summary
Guest commentator Kelly Anneken has to split, leaving Snoke half the man he used to be!
Guests
Notes
Film
- Starts with Rey saying "Ben"; ends with her gazing in wonder after Snoke is bisected.
- Biggest surprise of the movie: Death of Snoke.
- Parallel shots of Rey catching the flying lightsaber in TFA and TLJ.
- One of the few dismemberments in the Disney films.
Podcast
- Referenced: "That's Not My Name", mentioned: "Ben", Willard (2003).
- Never claim that you can't be betrayed/beaten, (on reality shows it never goes well).
- Does Snoke think of himself as a bad guy? Snoke as a bank teller.
- Credit to Kylo for being able to mask his intentions from Snoke.
- Kelly's loves to loudly react during movies. Her friend rented Dynasty Typewriter so they could watch Speed. It's unfortunate when some people take silly movies too seriously.
- Mentioned: Batman Returns.
- Snoke is killed with Anakin's lightsaber. He's surprised, and there's a Rey fakeout.
- What types of lightsaber wounds can you survive? It depends on Snoke's physiology.
- Who pulls the lightsaber through Snoke and to Rey?
- Force creep: Snoke is doing everything so casually without needing to concentrate to use the Force. See also: Pete's complaint about the famous hallway scene at the end of Rogue One.
- Maybe it's a Dark Side thing.
- Mentioned: Run Lola Run

- Kelly: How can we be evil? Our promotion structure is a snuff film.
