Summary
Amidala enters the ship, followed by her Handmaidens. Jar Jar hugs Qui-Gon and Anakin.
Guests
Notes
Film
- Starts with Qui-Gon explaining what symbionts are, and ends with Darth Sidious asking if the planet is secure.
- New Amidala outfit: Purple Travel Dress.
- First scene where Anakin and Artoo get a chance to bond.
- Another "R2 cheat". He couldn't make it up over the lip of the ramp, so they cut away.
Podcast
- Midi-chlorians as a spectrum.
- The Force has no gender, but it does have a will.
- Aspects of the Force.
- The Living Force and the [Cosmic] Force. The Throbbing Force?
- Qui-Gon as a specialist in the Living Force.
- It's odd that Amidala is both an elected monarch AND a child. "Boy kings" are usually hereditary monarchs.
- Referenced Game of Thrones.
- Amidala's accent—who is she trying to fool?
- Formal affect.
- Jake Lloyd talk.
- He's not the best actor, but he's fine.
- The point of having Anakin starting as an innocent kid.
- It's creepy when people hate children.
- Unless it's directly contradicted by things in the new canon, the old E.U. might as well exist.
- Jacob doesn't want to see recasting of characters that are the same age as those that have already appeared on film.
- Characters played by multiple actors.
- Wedge.
- Vader.
- Why is Jar Jar excited to be going home?
- Cut dialog: Sidious ordering that the Federation destroy Amidala.
- The "shocking reveal" is part of the Star Wars formula and is lacking in the Prequels.
- Palpatine turned out to be Sidious, just like we all thought.
- Plugs for the SWMLS, patreon, and Instagram.
Meta Minute
- 29:16 podcast episode length.
- "The will of the Force" is first mentioned in the second draft of "Adventures of the Starkiller"[1]. The first time this phrase appeared on screen was in minute 86.
Rogue One potential spoilers
- Given Jacob's stance on recasting, it would be interesting to hear his thoughts on CG Tarkin and CG Leia.
- The mustache guy from the Rogue One teaser turned out to be Cassian Andor, played by Diego Luna.
- For a list of actors to portray Darth Vader on screen, see the page for minute 8 of Attack of the Clones.
Other Meta Notes
- If you look carefully, R2's dome pops off just slightly in minute 64, during the podrace.
Quotes
- Pete: (As crackpot Qui-Gon) No, look, if you hang out with me long enough you're gonna hear voices too.
- Alex: I don't think CGI birds poop the way regular birds do.
- Jacob: So we done guys, wesa goin' home?
