'''Pete:''' They all look the same so it's hard to tell… that's not me being REYcist… the way the snap goes out and around and back to her is kind of a metaphor for the force in a way because it controls her actions but obeys her command in that she initiated it but then can't help but snap when the snap reaches her again. The shot of her slapping her hand down as she's getting out of the water is almost identical to the one from when she was meditating and slammed her hand down on the rock.

  Meta notes apparently nS. aturday Night Live did some good Disney era parodies look into these. Fans at conventions reenacting the ray snap. it's reminiscent of the running of the willrow hoods.
Referenced: The Not Another Teen Movie movie franchise. There was a Lego Star Wars droid Tales associated with the force awakens but other than that there hasn't been as much comedic tie-ins to the newer Star Wars films at least not so far compared to the prequels which had Robot Chicken and Family Guy.

Fan theorizers got so much of this movie right.

Steel quotes your idea… it's disgusting. Pete that's what I was looking for. Referenced: the end of 2001 A Space odyssey. In 7 years of doing the podcast they've missed out on the Trope of Pete asking what if the film ended here? But he's trying that out now. Or if this was a TV series they would have cut after Ray fell down the hole and then had the next episode be entirely about some other characters Adventure like Canto bite or the space chase. Better notes Nikki and Paolo movie poster? With Connex and pz4co.

Summary

Guest commentator Steele Saunders is here to catch some Reys way down in the hole and gives us his HONEST opinion of #TheLastJedi!

Guests

Steele Saunders

Notes

Film

  • Starts with Rey gasping, and ends with Rey snapping.

Podcast

  • How the important plot elements of this scene might be different if it was also directed by J. J. Abrams.
    • Pete's opinion is that what we see now doesn't contradict what we see later. Who Rey sees in the mirror is not her parents, but the person who made her who she is (herself, because she's self-made).
  • Steele remembers finding the few seconds between when Ray reaches out and when she touches the mirror interminable.
  • Steele's aunt had one of those dressers in the bathroom / washroom that has mirrors on three sides so when you look into it you see infinite reflections (Infinity Steeles). Maybe Rian had something similar.
  • Per Alex, the way the snap goes out and around and back to her is kind of a metaphor for the Force in a way because it controls her actions but also obeys her command in that she initiated it, but then can't help but snap when the snap reaches her again.
  • The shot of her slapping her hand down as she's getting out of the water is almost identical to the one from when she was meditating and slammed her hand down on the rock.
    • Alex is disappointed that there's not another shot so it could obey the comedy rule of thirds.
  • Referenced: Parody films like The Not Another Teen Movie movie.
    • There was "LEGO Star Wars: Droid Tales" associated with The Force Awakens, but other than that there hasn't been as many comedic tie-ins to the newer Star Wars films so far, at least not compared to the Originals and Prequels which had Robot Chicken and Family Guy.

Meta Minute

  • 31:41 podcast episode length.

Quotes

  • Pete and then Alex: Gaspin' and snappin'.
  • Pete: They all look the same so it's hard to tell… that's not me being REYcist…
