Notes
Film
- Starts with a pouty Luke Skywalker folding up his clothes in his hut, and ends with Snoke revealing that a cur's weakness is… blank.
- First appearance of Chewbacca for this movie.
- First appearance of Kylo Ren in this film, first in-person appearance of Snoke, period.
Podcast
- Nobody looked up what the other things in Luke's hut are.
- Considering that Luke is retired from the Jedi, he sure has a lot of Jedi-type knickknacks in his office. We want more Jedi tchotchkes and a Snoke globe.
- Question for the panel: what is Luke's relationship with Chewbacca. Are they like frat brothers?
- Since Luke is an emo teenager, even though he pretends like he doesn't want his mom coming in his room, he really did want to talk about what happened at school that day – it's that sweet sweet attention he craves.
- Evidence of the relationship from when they interact in the original trilogy.
- Chewie probably has lingering resentment because Luke is always trying to put handcuffs on him.
- Luke's "where's Han" (in addition to reminding us that Han died) means that the last time he knew them, they still owned the Millennium Falcon. Since the Falcon is like a floating bachelor pad, it would be like if Asterios' apartment showed up in Portland without him.
- Rey is interpreting Chewbacca for Luke; isn't that a bit presumptuous?
- Is she translating for him accurately? Maybe he said something totally different.
- How Rey knows how to speak Wookiee. Maybe it's a really really easy language to learn.
- That thing in modern filmmaking where one character asks about another character and then we cut to that character or in this case the character who murdered that character.
- We didn't know how big he was until just now.
- The size of people's holograms and what that says about them.
- Referenced: [[emperor chimp eyes. The energizer bunny has an entry on Wookieepedia. Snoke's self esteem issues
- Story about the killer pop-up (Editor's note: this is a link to a wiki about Creepypasta, not the actual website with the killer pop-up).
Meta Minute
- 28:23 podcast episode length.
Quotes
- Alex: […] analyze, scrutinize, and celebrate The Last Jedi one moist minute at a time.
- Alex: Weakness for whoopie. Pete: <finishing> the Snoke Story.
- Pete: All right, I'll cut that part out where you're a failure. Asterios and Sriracha: *uproarious laughter*.
- Alex: <petulantly) Mom I'm playing with my crystals! Sriracha: My Snoke globe, Mom, it's an action figure!
- Asterios: <indignantly> I know C3PO got his memory wiped by […] the guy from [sic] "Law and Order" [L. A. Law]!
- Pete: I think it's a joke they're playing on C-3PO. Asterios: Life is a joke that's being played on C-3PO!
- Pete: We'll have to go back and watch the Holiday Special again.
