- Quotable line: "the greatest teacher, failure is".
Podcast
- Plug for Don't Stop Or We'll Die (for which Tony plays the drums) and former guest of the show Paul Rust.
- Referenced: Sam Neil's character in The Hunt for Red October.
- Rey would've loved Yoda if they met, but since he's a Force ghost can she see him? Or are Force ghosts only in Luke's imagination?
- Nobody else really ever sees them in the movies.
- Do real ghosty ghosts exist in Star wars? Lot of unanswered questions.
- Jedi leaving their robes behind when they die.
- How they (choose to?) appear.
- Referenced: "Sesame Street", the Great Gazoo.
- Yoda hits Luke with his stick. A rare instance of a Force ghost interacting with the physical world? Referenced: Paul Scheer's sandwich.
- Shout out to Chris Radtke.
- A rare appearance of Yoda's tender side.
- Have Luke and Yoda been in touch before now? Probably. Callback to last week ("scanning sleeping kids").
- What if it had been Anakin's Force ghost instead of Yoda? Should Obi-Wan have shown up too?
- In the scene in TROS where Rey is struggling and she hears the voices of the Force ghosts on Exegol, they filmed the physical appearance of those ghosts but ended up not using it in the film.
Tony's list of predictions
He hasn't read this in years. Incidentally he numbered them "1, 2, 3, 4, 6".
1. The first shot is a fake out: it's not space, it's a rock with Rey's hand on it (as in the trailer). Similar to the deleted scene of Finn in the bubble as the opening (partial credit). Mentioned: please don't bring up the toys.
2. We will see a force ghost Obi-Wan and/or Yoda.
3. Rey will wear the Kylo Ren suit.
4. Snoke will be revealed to be Ezra Bridger.
6. 5. The 'D' in "DJ" will stand for "Darth".
Other notes
- Tony has seen every new Star Wars movie except for The Force Awakens at the Universal Studios Universal City Walk because it is the only true IMAX theater anywhere close to him.
- He saw all the movies except for Solo with former guest of the show Todd Cooper.
- Todd has not and refuses to see Solo. Remember: Solo is available on Blu-ray and digital.
- He saw all the movies except for Solo with former guest of the show Todd Cooper.
- Plug for "Living in these Star Wars" by Dan Whitley and the Rebel Force Band (starwarsminute.com/theme).
Meta Minute
- 25:15 podcast episode length.
- The song "Babu Frik" by Don't Stop Or We'll Die is the closing theme for The Rise of Skywalker Minute.
- Wookieepedia describes ghosts as "folkloric creatures" so they've definitely heard of ghosts in Star Wars, there's just no word as to whether or not they actually exist.
- Todd never did appear on Solo Minute.
Quotes
- Pete: [Yoda]'s a regular Snuffleupagus.
- Pete: (re: Yoda's sick) Not only is it better than bacon, it's Marty Jannetty.
- Alex: (as Alec Guinness) Oh are you still mad at me Luke? I brought Force ghost cake.
