Chrysanthe read the Canto Bight book! '''Chrysanthe:''' For me, it's just not that much fun to read stories about rich people doing terrible stuff.
Chrysanthe read the Canto Bight book!  
Upon seeing the movie, Chrysanthe related to Rose’s anger, and reading the book only made that worse. '''Pete:''' you wanted to put your fist through the whole book.

The worm character (played by Warwick Davis) from the first Novella in the Canto Bight book is very… {{Wookiee|Kedpin_Shoklop|phallic}}. Warwick Davis and his daughter are also  in this scene playing members of the lucky three. Warwick Davis looks like a “one-eyed worm”.

Guest commentator Chrysanthe Tan joins us for the never-ending party that is life on Canto Bight!

Chrysanthe Tan

Notes

Film

  • Starts with Finn saying "this place is great". Ends with Finn asking "what are those things?" It's a fun creature minute.

Podcast

  • Pete and Alex were the last two people over at Chrysanthe's apartment before the pandemic in March of 2020. They distinctly remember thinking "I wonder if they'll be the last people I see..."
  • Pete was mixed on the “intro Bight”.
    • As mentioned last week, the creatures feel a bit too “Babylon 5” or “Doctor Who”ish. But if you're not familiar with either of those shows it's hard to put your finger on why they feel that way.
  • Recall: the hero of the original Cantina scene was the dim lighting; when creatures are well-lit they don't look as good. They have a certain TV quality about them.
  • Is the comparison with the original Cantina apt? Chalmun's is a dive bar, and this is a ritzy casino.
    • Comparisons of Canto Bight to Disney World and Las Vegas.
      • Las Vegas now caters to the common person but it used to be you had to wear a tuxedo just to get in. Canto Bight seems more like that.

Meta Minute

  • 49:02 podcast episode length.

Quotes

  • Alex: Here we are, on the other side. We made it. *Prevaricating noises from Chrysanthe and Pete*. <Through gritted teeth> Alex: We made it.
