Notes

Film

  • Ends with a quiet reprise of the Imperial March on harp (or some other stringed instrument).

  • Anakin/Vader's various deaths and identities. How many people has he been, and how many of them have died?
  • Vader being disappointed in his son.
  • Where is everybody? Behind the scenes info.
  • Shaw and McDiarmid were friends. The small community of British Actors who all seem to know each other.
    • When he ran into McDiarmid on set, McDiarmid asked Shaw what he was doing there. Shaw was quoted as saying:

"I don't know, dear boy, I think it's something to do with science-fiction."

  • Mentioned: Green Eggs and Ham.
  • How awkward it would have been if someone were to interrupt them.

  • John shares general memories seeing the Star Wars films and Jedi in particular.
He didn't particularly like it, and feels that there are 2.5 good Star Wars movies.

  • The start of another All-Star Week.
