Summary
Guest commentator Chrysanthe Tan joins us for the never-ending party that is life on Canto Bight!
Guests
Notes
Film
- Starts with Finn saying "this place is great". Ends with Finn asking "what are those things?" It's a fun creature minute.
- The worm character (played by Warwick Davis) from the first Novella in the Canto Bight book (but was cut from the scene) is very… phallic.
- Warwick Davis and his daughter are also in this scene playing members of the Lucky Three.
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.
- Comparisons of Canto Bight to Disney World and Las Vegas.
- Chrysanthe read the Canto Bight book!
- Upon seeing the movie, Chrysanthe related to Rose’s anger, and reading the book only made that worse.
- Kedpin_Shoklop (played by Warwick Davis) looks like a "one-eyed worm".
- Characters that do appear in this minute:
- Wayulia Tagge-Simoni, the old lady that is too frail to go out so she is sending her holographic avatar in her stead with a proxy droid body. The head is a younger version of herself(?).
- Any relation to the Tagge family (Casio Tagge of House Tagge)? Wookieepedia doesn’t know.
- Reference to the Bruce Willis sci-fi movie ‘’Surrogates’’.
- Like it's like a remote High School reunion where you use your high school photo instead of your current photo.
- the little croupier guy on the craps table.
- Apparently he emits an oddly pleasing aroma that puts patrons at ease. What does he smell like?
- Mentioned: Lexo Sooger the Dor Namethian, who has a very keen sense of smell, so he was always saying what creatures smell like.
- Wayulia Tagge-Simoni, the old lady that is too frail to go out so she is sending her holographic avatar in her stead with a proxy droid body. The head is a younger version of herself(?).
- The custom smell industry.
Meta Minute
- 49:02 podcast episode length.
- Yes they’ve brought custom smells up before, for example: That New Death Star Smell.
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.
- Chrysanthe: For me, it's just not that much fun to read stories about rich people doing terrible stuff.
- Pete: You wanted to put your fist through the whole book.
