Summary
Qui-Gon and Jar Jar pull themselves out of the mud.
Guests
Notes
Film
- Jar Jar springs upright (like Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
- First time (episode order) that gods are mentioned
Podcast
- Odd (old-fashioned?) film pacing in TPM
- Humanizing dialogue cut out to make room for more effects shots
- Referenced: The Terminator, Prometheus, "By Mennen" Jingle, Love Actually, Jonathan Winters, Bob Newhart (stammering), Tim Gunn, A Christmas Story
- Mentioned: What does Jar Jar smell/feel like?, From time to time
- English-speaking Chewbacca?
- Unintelligible Jar Jar dialogue
- The non-threat of the droid troop transport
- Jar Jar character design
- Compare/contrast with Ewoks
- Another shoutout to Matt Gourley
- Lucas' anti-faith bent
- Movies we'd like to see: Chewie and his tutor rom-com, Han and Chewie college roommates
- Ring theory: ROTJ Minute 12 is the Droid torture scene, which parallels Jar Jar's shrieking
- Cut scene: lightsaber maintenance
Meta Minute
- 37:05 podcast episode length.
- Flash forward: Although not explicitly stated in the movie, Chewbacca did appear to have a bit of a thing going on with Doctor Harter Kalonia
Quotes
- Ben Acker: The Voldemort of Hotels.
- Alex: "All-Too-Human" MacGregor.
- Ben Acker: We [the Gungans] gotta develop vests; it just makes sense.
