Notes

Film

  • Starts with the CBMP (Canto Bight Mounted Police) chasing Rose and Finn through the fields, ends with what looks like Rose and Finn getting abducted by aliens.

Podcast

  • The shot that starts this minute is reminiscent of the original Planet of the Apes when they're chasing them through the fields. Mentioned: Field of Dreams.
  • The fathiers have no problem smashing through windows and buildings, but they stopped dead at the edge of a cliff. They should jump right off, lemming-style (but see below).

Meta Minute

  • 38:23 podcast episode length.
  • The idea that lemmings commit mass suicide by leaping off cliffs is a very common misconception that is ridiculously untrue. Unfortunately, the footage captured to film the 1958 documentary White Wilderness of lemmings hurling themselves off a cliff were staged, and was actually footage of truckloads of imported lemmings being thrown off the cliff by the producers of the film

Quotes

  • Pete: ...Analyze scrutinize and free rides.
  • Pete: [...] analyze scrutinize and "tie my tie".
  • Pete: You know what they say, "if it's Canto Bight, it's gotta be night."
