Summary
Luke Skywalker ignites the green but is it enough to satisfy guest commentator Steele Saunders?
From a certain point of view!
Guests
Notes
Film
- Starts with Rey asking Kylo how he could be so low as to kill Solo. Ends with Kylo telling Rey that she should "let the past—"
- The famous line "Your parents threw you away like garbage."
Podcast
- The phrasing of calling something 'garbage' might not mean the same thing to someone who lives on a junk planet and makes their living off of selling garbage.
- Kylo Ren does quite a lot of passive-aggressive negging.
- The way that Ben Solo calls his father 'Han Solo' (the full name) as if it were one word. He refers to Rey's potential father figures in the most dismissive way possible. Shoutout to Radtke (who is even called that by his wife). Mentioned: Wormie Skywalker.
- In Luke's version of his backstory, he was Bart Simpson and everyone thought he was cool, but in everyone else's version of his backstory, he was Milhouse (who everyone made fun of).
- The "whole double-backing" on Rey's heritage is where Star Wars falls apart for Steele.
- The fundamental moral message of the first two films of the Sequel Trilogy was that you can come from nothing and still change the world. But then the third one says you better be related to someone even if you don't know it.
- 99% of children watching these movies relate to coming from nothing and trying to become something as opposed to the 1% who are related to someone infamous and need to try and overcome that.
- The reason there are so many movies that keep getting made about workaholic business people who have to learn that their real wealth was their family is because that's who the movie producers themselves are.
- 99% of children watching these movies relate to coming from nothing and trying to become something as opposed to the 1% who are related to someone infamous and need to try and overcome that.
- This damage was already done in Return of the Jedi when they made Leia Luke's sister. Pete quotes we thought it was a Swedish fish but it was a red herring. Throughout the movies everyone gets more and more related and the only people who we thought from the get-go were related(uncle owen and aunt beru being related to Obi-Wan and or to Luke are not actually related) or even Leia and her father. Character in The Force awakens kylo Ren was obsessed with the past and becoming the next Darth Vader but now he's saying let the past die. But that's character growth after he got that dressing down from snoke saying he'll never be the next Darth Vader and so he's talking to himself as much as Ray that it's time to give up on trying to live in the past.
- The fundamental moral message of the first two films of the Sequel Trilogy was that you can come from nothing and still change the world. But then the third one says you better be related to someone even if you don't know it.
Meta Minute
- 43:28 podcast episode length.
Quotes
- Alex: (framing the moral message of these films to the intended audience, executives at Lucasfilm) Don't worry that you're so much wealthier than everyone else; your kids are going to turn out fine.
