Guests
Notes
Film
- Starts with Leia asking C-3PO what is Wicket saying; ends with the ships jumping to lightspeed.
- All the "-wings".
- First time we see the Falcon flying in this movie.
Podcast
- C-3PO acting as a translator. There should be no need for Leia to ask what is being said.
- Listener Projects: Make a 20-minute music video of Yak Face with Yakety Sax.
- Alien languages in the Original Trilogy vs. foreign accents in the Prequels.
- Characters being spoken to in an alien language, but then replying in English.
- Nien Nunb
- Smuggler from Sullust.
- Spice Mines of Kessel.
- Speaks Sullustese.
- Unaltered Tanzanian Haya dialog, which was understood by audiences in neighboring Kenya.
- How to pronounce his name.
- Nien Nunb vs. Ten Numb.
- Other listener project: edit in party horns for Admiral Ackbar's mark.
- Ackbar's chair
- Rudy Vallee and megaphone crooning
Tony's mom sent away for the Nien Nunb figure. Tony went through a brief phase where he got rid of all his Star Wars toys and has since had to re-acquire them. He bought some here at SW Celebration. There was only one survivor of the toy purge: his Luke Skywalker Stormtrooper Disguise figure. Tony was 5, the perfect age, when this came out, so he doesn't hate the Ewoks.
