Alternative notions for the collective name. Meta notes a group of puffins is called a circus. Also a colony, a puffinry, a burrow, a gathering, or an I'm probability. A group of pugs is called a grumble. And a Group of noisy parrots is a pandemonium.

Summary

Guest commentators Asterios Kokkinos & Sirancha spark a debate about whether Kylo's helmet is totally excellent or ridiculous excrement!

Guests

Asterios Kokkinos and Sirancha

Notes

Film

  • Starts with Snoke thinking that Kylo Ren would be the one to snuff it out, and ends with Rey telling Luke that there's no light left in Kylo Ren (so I guess he did snuff it out).

Podcast

  • Snoke is continuing to be verbally abusive toward Kylo Ren.
    • Despite being the guy that killed Han Solo (one of our favorite characters) we actually do feel a little sorry for Kylo Ren (thanks a lot, Rian).
    • The running theme that the First Order is like the world's worst office.
      • They probably all talk about Kylo Ren behind his back. There's a betting pool to determine when he's going to throw his next tantrum.
      • Or anytime anybody breaks something they can blame Kylo Ren (he's the "not me").

Elevators

  • In every Star Wars, except for The Force Awakens.
  • Instead The Force Awakens has ladders.

Other notes

  • How old Adam Driver was when filming this vs. how old Hayden Christiansen was when he first played Anakin. Regardless of his exact age, he's not a 'child'.
    • Looking forward to the still upcoming Obi-Wan series as a chance to redeem Hayden Christiansen, Jake Lloyd, et al.
    • What if the situations had been reversed where Christiansen was more mature when we first met him (and and Driver was only 23)?
      • Adam Driver's filmography. He kind of started out at the top (he didn't have far to climb).
  • Sirancha loves porgs but does not like baby Yoda (because everybody else does). Referenced: baby Yoda getting punched for ten hours.
    • Baby Yoda eating many creatures and eggs. Could he eat a porg/porglet/porg egg?
      • Porglets are disgusting-looking. The only thing that looks uglier as a baby is birds, and porgs are no exception.
  • Porgs seem like they shouldn't be able to fly. Or really swim all that well.
  • Today's porg fact is that they know how to use tools [citation needed]. Final porg fact from Sirancha: the collective noun for porgs is a murder of porgs (note: see below).
  • What porg merch are our guests still looking for?
    • Asterios wants the bigfoot porg (from the Bigfoot plush line)
    • And then there's the porg piebird (Williams and Sonoma).
    • Asterios and Sirancha should set up a wishlist.

Meta Minute

  • 28:05 podcast episode length.
  • We are now only 1/8th the way through this movie (12.5%).

Quotes

  • Pete: …analyze scrutinize and First Order officer side-eyes...
  • Asterios: Put the Ewoks in it and fill it up with losers.
  • Asterios: (quoting Sirancha, or so he claims) "I've changed my mind on baby Yoda. I love baby Yoda now". Sirancha: That sounds like hearsay.
  • Asterios: [Porglets] look like po' boy... orbs. Sirancha: What do you think a po' boy is?
  • Sirancha: Porgs are little stubby nubbins'. Pete repeating in cutesy voice powgs aw widdle stubby nubbins.
