Guests

Hal Lublin

Notes

Film

  • Starts and ends with Obi-Wan skulking around Geonosis.
  • First appearance of Christopher Lee as Count Dooku.

Podcast

  • Pete's stupid joke from yesterday. Referenced: Peter Gabriel from the band Genesis.
  • Other times that Obi-Wan skulks around. Parallel to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
  • Obi-Wan is like a UN weapons inspector—shouldn't he be reporting this? Or taking any action at all?
    • Ewan McGregor is normally a bright spot in these movies.
  • We're not looking forward to the upcoming droid factory scene.
  • It's been ten years and Nute Gunray is still walking around talking about treaties.
    • Mentioned: Snow White.
      • Nute Gunray is really into heads and shows it how he decorates his office. Using human body parts as office supplies.
      • Or he's just really into phrenology.
  • Count Dooku and Obi-Wan don't seem to sense each other.
    • Other times that Force users feel (or fail to feel) each other's presence.
      • Nobody supects Palpatine.
    • Using the WiFi signal as an analogy. Maybe you need to be actively using the Force to show up each other's radar.

Meta Minute

  • 25:58 podcast episode length.
  • Although now legends, an artificial heart was mentioned in West End Games' Cracken's Rebel Field Guide sourcebook.

Quotes

  • Pete: ...to be fair, this is the second secret army [Obi-Wan has] found today...
  • Alex and then Hal: <impressions of various emotionally needy battle droids>.
  • Hal: "I won't believe she's dead until you bring me either an organ or an entire body part—let's go with head..." Alex: Yeah head is better than heart because [...] you'd totally be able to see her...bored stiff face.
  • Pete: I don't know the terminology of phrenology. Hal: Nobody does. Not even phrenologists.
  • Pete: You have a Force request from "D. Vader". Alex: He'd like to add you to his Force network. Hal: <Skype ringtone noises>
