Notes

Film

  • Starts with the AT-ST Tempest picking off more stormtroopers in the woods, and ends with the drunk fallen AT-ST blowing up after it hits the ground.
  • 32 ewoks at work simultaneously in this minute.
  • Widdle "Willy" Warrick and Wunka the Ewoks.
  • Stop motion AT-ST.

Podcast

  • Why the Ewoks have all these traps ready to go, and how they were able to prepare so fast. They are very organized!
  • The stormtroopers are having a hard time getting around the forest (even though many of the extras were local loggers). They should have called in the log troopers.
  • Willy and Wunka.
    • Wunka and his brother Tokat became gunners on the Alliance cruiser Liberator. Maybe Wunka is firing the guns of the Tempest.
  • The hosts just watched the minute and no one can agree on who is sitting where in the AT-ST. This is why humans are unreliable witnesses.
  • The Endor forest is super flammable, and the Rebels don't really seem to care.
  • Previously uncontacted tribes adopting the worst aspects of Western civilization.
    • Referenced: the original Star Trek series episode "{{{2}}}".
  • Amazing traps

"*The first Mythbusters Star Wars special tested the log smash.

Meta Minute

  • 24:37 podcast episode length.

Quotes

  • Alex: As with most of the EU, I think that's utter garbage.
  • Alex: If you rounded up all the Ewoks, herded them out of the village into like clearing in the woods...I'm not sure what you're going do when you get them there...
  • Pete: His [Wicket's]"widdle" brother, who's older.
