Guests
Notes
Film
- Starts with Finn telling Poe that the First Order has them, and ends with Kylo Ren spinning his TIE fighter, just like his grandfather.
Podcast
- Spinning: still a good trick.
Noah's character Stomeroni Starck: what's his deal?
- For whatever reason, Noah is required to be in all of Riann Johnson's movies; he wouldn't have greenlit the movie if they didn't put him in it.
- Johnson's uncle is named Stark. The name Stomeroni comes from "Stoe", who Johnson and Pablo Hidalgo made up to be Poe's screw-up brother.
- Mentioned: Peet Deretalia. Pete has a Google alert set up for her so he can always keep tabs on what's going on with the character.
- No Spoilers, but something happens to Stomeroni Starck in the next couple minutes here.
- But... unless you see a body, you can't guarantee that they're dead (at least in Star Wars).
- Referenced: spider legs, "we have the technology. We can rebuild him..." from Six Million Dollar Man.
- But... unless you see a body, you can't guarantee that they're dead (at least in Star Wars).
- The Friendship / "will they/won't they" with Tallie. They could do this story as a prequel.
- Supposedly, they're still going to do Rian Johnson's trilogy sometime in the future. What role Noah would play if they brought him back.
Backstage info
Sitting behind the pilot's seat of an X-wing In the new movies most of the vehicles are in at least some capacity fully functional the switches and buttons all work and light up. And the screens have animations. And in the snub Fighters the cockpits go up and down controlled by experienced operators. But they don't go up and down unless the person in the cockpit the actor is holding a sort of 'deadman switch' with both hands. So it was hard for Noah as start to bang on the cockpit door because he had to hold down the switch while doing that. Noah's experience going on board the Falcon set. It is modular, so they can take it apart and put it back together again but it does all fit together. So you can walk under the stage up a gangplank and then you just on the Falcon which is how it was when Noah visited.

- Noah: All I can do is glue his [Ryan Johnson's] fingers to the keyboard; I can't decide what he does with them from there.
