Summary

The walker’s giant feet continue to pound onward across the frozen snow. Stray laser bolts whistle by Luke as he climbs up the cable to the walker’s hull, reaching a small hatch. Hanging precariously, Luke cuts the solid metal hatch with his laser sword.

Guests

Mike Norton

Notes

Film

  • The end of the Hoth battle. Han and Leia are starting to evacuate the command center and it ends a minute later when Luke Skywalker single-handedly takes down a Walker and it falls over on the ground.

Podcast

  • For Mike, Luke taking down a Walker with a lightsaber was the coolest moment in Star Wars movies up until this point. All done with toys and CG but it all looks so real. Really well done.
  • Luke likes swinging his lightsaber, looking through binoculars and swinging on ropes.

Resume at 4:45.

Meta Minute

  • 26:34 podcast episode length.
  • Toy-talk:
    • Mike remembers having the ion cannon / trench playset as a kid and everything just blows up in the toy.
    • Alex mentions the similar Imperial Hoth playset that was also available.
    • Pete mentions the Star Wars miniature playsets (eg Bespin gantry).
