I'm not going to give you spoilers , but while listening
2:52
to the audiobook , just because it's easier
2:54
. While I'm working , because
2:56
I do work a crazy full-time job
2:58
.
2:59
Yeah .
3:07
I was sitting there with my Star Wars Wikipedia page up and like googling names , as
3:09
I heard it , and different like species and planets and ships , because
3:12
I'm a very visual person , I
3:14
need to see it in front of me to get
3:16
like more engaged with the story
3:18
and , being the High Republic , we don't
3:21
really know anybody from the stories
3:23
, so it'll
3:25
be exciting yeah , and so then I bought
3:27
the encyclopedia because
3:30
, um , to be helpful
3:32
, I like visuals .
3:34
As I stated , it's difficult
3:36
when there's no face at all

I also want to talk about
4:28
something rad that everybody did this week .
4:30
What was that ? I was ?
4:30
your April 8th . What was April 8th ? Oh , it was good , I was off
4:32
work . It was , you know
4:35
, we all know . I talked about my , my preteen , my
4:37
12 year old love him to death . He
4:40
was off of school as well . He
4:42
was off school . He um , they
4:46
just happened to have the eighth off , so
4:48
I was like I'll take the day off , we'll hang out , we'll watch
4:50
the eclipse . And so the
4:54
eclipse happens and he's like that's
4:57
it , it's not gonna get darker , oh
4:59
, I went on totality
5:01
, buddy , I know , but we were told
5:03
it was like 95 , 96%
5:05
totality , so I was thinking maybe
5:08
like 95 , 96%
5:11
darkness . Yeah , it
5:13
was not . It was still really cool . We
5:16
heard all the birds and the bugs and
5:18
everything go quiet . And
5:21
the temperature definitely dropped
5:23
dramatically , which was really cool .
5:26
Um yeah , mine was
5:28
also pretty freaking cool . Um , eric
5:31
and I went up to okay
5:33
. So there's the story . I have tea to spill
5:35
. First there is , uh
5:37
, there . This , this eclipse
5:39
vacation started off with some , some
5:41
drama and some crying , so
5:44
we had
5:46
this place booked for a year and a half . Adri
5:48
, mark's wife Mark
5:50
is Eric's older brother . Yeah
5:52
, she
5:55
booked this place like a year and a half ago
5:57
as soon as she found out
5:59
that
6:01
this was going to happen .
6:03
We both did it . No , it's fine , we both did it .
6:06
I'm gonna put your book down here , though , okay . Okay
6:09
. So she booked this place like a year and a half ago , as
6:11
soon as we found out the eclipse was going to happen , and
6:13
it was a place up by Springfield
6:16
Frederickstown I think it was .
6:18
It was in the path of totality Okay so I was
6:20
confused when you said Eureka Springs
6:23
.
6:23
Okay , yeah , because we were supposed to go up by St
6:25
Louis St Louis , not Springs , because
6:27
that was in the path of totality and we're like
6:30
it's so close , we'll just drive there
6:32
and make a weekend of it , right ? So
6:34
a year and a half passes , we're all getting ready
6:36
to go . It is the night
6:38
that Eric and I are about to leave
6:40
and drive to his mom's house , are
6:43
about to leave and drive to his mom's house because we're going
6:45
to stay the night with her and then carpool with her up to st louis instead
6:47
of freaking . Everybody's car mark and adrie headed
6:49
out that night and we're heading up
6:51
there to , uh , or the day that we were
6:53
all supposed to leave . They were heading up
6:56
towards our place in st louis and they were like let's just
6:58
call and get like our code and all that stuff
7:00
ahead of time . Make sure it's all squared away . They
7:02
call , and they call , and they call , and the phone rings
7:04
and rings and like no number no
7:06
no nothing . They can't get a hold of anybody
7:09
at all , and so they were like
7:11
, oh well , this is the problem . So
7:13
they call airbnb and they're like hey , we're
7:15
on our way to this house . We don't have any codes or anything
7:18
like it's been booked for a year and a half . We
7:20
can't get a hold of anybody , and they were were like
7:22
okay , well , hold on , we have , you
7:24
know , like emergency numbers and things like that , yeah
7:26
. So they were like hang on , yeah , I you
7:29
know , we don't know , but we'll see if we can get
7:31
a hold of them . So they
7:33
call and call , and call and call and
7:36
they can get a hold of nobody . So
7:39
Airbnb is like okay
7:41
, we don't know what happened .
7:42
We're going to have to investigate this further .
7:44
In the meantime , we're going to give you a partial
7:47
refund and put you in another place , you
7:49
know , for no extra cost at all , another
7:51
place in the area , and she's like okay
7:53
, cool , it's totality
7:56
of eclipse there is nothing
7:58
Forever Booked
8:00
ours a year and a half ago . Oh man
8:02
yeah yeah , so there's nothing available
8:04
. So they're like oh no , um
8:07
, so sorry , here's a full
8:09
refund . We don't know what to do right
8:12
because at that point it's like we
8:15
can't really blame airbnb
8:17
for shady stuff the owner's doing , and
8:19
it turns out the owner had
8:21
sold the house but never updated
8:23
the listing . Just kept collecting people's money . Oh
8:25
my god , like nobody ever knew
8:28
. So the new owner is just like I don't . I
8:30
don't know what you're talking about this . Uh , we
8:32
don't have an airbnb .
8:33
You know , we use our house
8:35
for only us I say I've heard of
8:38
airbnb hosts , um , for
8:40
like big events , like they'll cancel
8:42
people , yeah , and then rebook
8:44
it with somebody else at a higher price to
8:46
get more money . So frustrating
8:49
.
8:49
So this was just straight up fraud . He was just like I'm gonna
8:51
take all your money and you don't get a place to stay so
8:54
we were like oh , no , and adri
8:56
is a freaking rock star and
8:59
she scrambled around and happened to
9:01
find this absolutely beautiful
9:04
, perfect place in yourureka Springs
9:06
, like just like 15 minutes outside
9:08
of Eureka Springs . Okay , nice . And it
9:10
wasn't 100% totality , which is a bummer
9:12
, because we were supposed to have that , but we
9:14
had like 98.3% totality
9:16
, so we got a heck
9:19
of a good show . It was beautiful
9:21
and , like you were talking about the degree Like
9:23
we felt like a 5 to 10 degree temperature
9:25
drop .
9:28
And that was that was really cool . Yeah , I thought that
9:30
was really cool . But , Owen was like oh , that's
9:32
it . Oh , like after
9:35
, like it moved back , like as it was
9:37
moving past it . He's like I'm going to go back in and play
9:39
video games . I'm like whatever
9:41
.
9:41
2045 , we'll have to go to Ketown . Yeah , 2045 , we'll
9:43
have to go to the cabin . Yeah , so but , it
9:45
really illustrates . We were talking while
9:47
we were watching it about how
9:49
powerful the sun
9:52
you know , and it's rays are because
9:54
we were at , I mean , 1.7%
9:58
of the sun we could see , that's all
10:00
and we were still , like you could see just
10:02
fine , and it wasn't freezing . Our sun is powerful . It's
10:04
like our sun is powerful .
10:06
It's pretty amazing I mean , yeah
10:09
, we're a lot closer than what . Six
10:11
other point , five other , no , there's
10:13
only eight planets now so five other
10:15
planets , pluto's , not a planet .
10:17
Our poor childhood
10:20
, they took pluto they have been ruining our
10:22
childhood like three
10:24
or four times a year , every year
10:26
since we became adults yeah
10:28
, it's like more and more things come out and you're
10:30
like , oh , but you know what's great
10:33
?
10:34
we got fun Star Wars stories . We do have Star Wars
10:36
stories and we probably get into them
10:38
.
10:38
Like I didn't realize , we've been chatting for 10
10:41
oh , 10 minutes okay
10:44
, well , thanks for being such a support . The eclipse
10:46
was cool . The eclipse was cool . While
10:50
I'm editing this , when it drops on Friday , I'll toss in some pictures
10:52
, and we also have
10:54
some videos from us watching the eclipse
10:56
that'll be dropping probably
10:59
today .
11:01
I haven't been home very long .
11:03
I haven't been home very long , so I haven't had time to put everything
11:05
together . That's fine . I'm sorry
11:07
.
11:09
Life happens and Denise almost
11:11
just knocked everything over , so let's just keep
11:13
going . Okay , maybe we won't do that .
11:17
All right , so I
11:19
have the first story from
11:22
A New Hope . So , during production
11:24
on A New new hope , filming for the scenes on
11:26
tatooine were shot in pelagia , tunisia
11:29
, tunisia , tunisia
11:33
. It was the perfect location for the dry
11:35
, sandy environment of luke's home world
11:37
, owing to the fact that it hadn't rained there
11:39
in seven years . But mother nature
11:41
had different ideas . Seven years
11:43
, seven years it had not rained in this
11:45
place for seven years
11:48
.
11:48
So I guess that does make it the perfect place for kathleen
11:50
, because I don't think kathleen had seen rain
11:52
in a very , very long time . Yeah , it's just sand
11:54
and they have to have their moisture far
11:57
.
11:58
Well , this day they didn't , because just after
12:00
they arrived in tunisia , the heavens opened
12:03
up and the area experienced
12:05
the heaviest rainfall
12:07
in an entire generation Every
12:10
four days straight , causing
12:13
filming to delay and damaging some of the
12:15
sets . That's like our luck , I
12:17
know I've
12:19
trained . In seven years here's a flood
12:21
.
12:22
Oh my gosh that
12:25
sucks . And they traveled all that way to Tun flood . Oh my gosh that sucks . And they traveled all that
12:27
way to film Through
12:29
Tunisia , to have it just .
12:33
They're like perfect place . Desert Hasn't
12:35
rained in almost a decade . We'll be totally
12:38
fine the day they get
12:40
there .
12:40
They also filmed some of the scenes in
12:43
Death Valley , didn't they ? In California ? But
12:45
those are the ones with the Banthas .
12:47
Yeah , those are the ones with Bantha , and Alex
12:50
Guinness Guinness
12:52
.
12:53
No , alex , it's not Guinness
12:56
beer , alex , alex
13:00
, I need a drink after work .
13:02
Oh no , I can't remember his last name . Alex was
13:05
the bantha , the elephant trainer , oh , but
13:09
. Margie was the
13:12
elephant that they used and they were all
13:14
shot in . Who
13:17
else we got Okay ?
13:23
What You're laughing , and I don't
13:25
like laughing and not knowing what's going
13:27
on .
13:28
Okay , so
13:30
the costume that
13:33
Anthony Daniels wore for A
13:35
New Hope when he was P3O
13:38
3PO .
13:40
You always say P3O .
13:42
I know 3PO .
13:45
Well , there's three that's P3O
13:48
. Yeah , so you always say P2 . Yeah
13:51
, but it's kind of weird . But it's
13:53
okay , I know .
13:54
We love you anyways .
13:57
You might get us canceled . We'll be safe . I'm
13:59
sorry .
14:00
But I realize I'm doing it .
14:02
Original character's name wrong . How dare
14:05
you say PO
14:07
instead of 3PO ? You
14:09
call yourself a fan . You
14:12
are a disgrace to
14:14
the whole fandom .
14:16
Shame myself , shame , shame .
14:20
The sad thing is , there are people out there that do that
14:22
.
14:23
I know If this makes it into the right ears that'll
14:26
happen .
14:26
I got laughed at because I said I was excited
14:28
for the main character in the new Star Wars Outlaws
14:30
game because it's a female . I'm
14:33
not a very attractive one at that .
14:34
Who cares ? Kick them in the nuts
14:37
Internet , internet , internet
14:39
Alright so
14:43
the costume that Anthonyony daniels wore for a
14:45
new hope was extremely uncomfortable
14:47
. It took hours to put on
14:49
and , according to daniels , the
14:51
sharp edges hurt him with every single step
14:53
that sounds like wearing a stormtrooper
14:56
, armando a little bit , yeah , except
14:59
worse even less
15:01
mobility . I don't say that thing's like skin
15:03
tight , can't even
15:05
like put your arms all the way down .
15:07
I'd say you got no like mobility from
15:09
side to side .
15:11
Pieces often fell off or broke . That's
15:13
what I was giggling about , and the first time
15:15
that Daniel's put the costume on , the entire left
15:17
leg shattered the
15:19
whole thing just came apart .
15:21
I'm having flashbacks to when I broke my
15:23
shin on my mando . Yeah
15:26
, I completely . I
15:28
was taking a picture in the snow , trying
15:31
to climb up on a log , to
15:34
get on the log and take a really cool picture , and
15:36
I slipped and I smacked right
15:38
into the piece of wood . That's
15:41
partly why he yeah , he
15:44
waddle .
15:48
I mean he can't't move .
15:49
You can't bend his legs , you can't , no , just
15:51
shuffle . This is all you can do . The pto
15:53
or p30 shuffle .
15:56
I was saying it for you it's
16:01
really hard for me to not add the three in front of the , the C3 of .
16:02
Temple . It's really hard for me to not add the 3 in front
16:04
of the C3 of Temple .
16:06
Like I know , every single time I do
16:08
it , I know what I'm doing , I'm not
16:10
just I bet you PO had BO in
16:12
the back . I
16:16
bet he did Alright
16:19
. Okay
16:22
, so we've got another story here , Detailed
16:24
in her 2008 autobiography
16:26
Wishful Drinking .
16:28
Oh , read that one .
16:30
Yep , it's about Lucas's
16:33
insistence that she did not wear a bra
16:35
in New Hope . Fisher
16:37
said years later that , according to Lucas , lingerie
16:40
doesn't exist in space , so as
16:43
the straps could end up strangling the wearer
16:45
in a zero gravity environment , playing
16:47
on that .
16:48
does that mean guys
16:50
don't wear underwear either ? I think so , Because
16:54
it'd get all jumbled up .
16:55
Because it would strangle you . Wait
16:59
what those would ? Be basically
17:02
strapped into a furniture dolly
17:04
, so he could rest . I've seen pictures
17:06
of that . I need a picture of that I
17:09
need to see it .
17:11
I hate the whole . There's no underwear
17:15
in space .
17:16
That's such a stupid thing .
17:18
It's so dumb . Was
17:21
it an issue in the first one ? Did he say it
17:23
in the first one ? Or did he say , bring it up in A Return of
17:25
the Jedi Because you wore the
17:27
bikini ?
17:30
No in A New Hope .
17:31
I think it was from A New Hope .
17:32
yeah , I think so too .
17:33
Yeah , yeah , insistence that she did not wear a bra in New
17:35
Hope Free-balling in space
17:38
.
17:39
I couldn't even . Oh , I gotta
17:41
plug my computer in real quick . Let
17:44
me finish the story .
17:45
I couldn't even imagine free-balling in space
17:47
, I'm just constantly like floating
17:50
around . Mom
17:54
the anti-gravity .
18:05
Blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , blub
18:07
, blub , blub , blub , blub , blub , bl . I don't know if I'm ever going to be able to get that sound out
18:09
of my head now . So , with this in mind , fisher often
18:11
said that for her obituary
18:13
I want it reported that I drowned
18:16
in moonlight , strangled by my own bra that
18:19
was like one of the stories that she
18:22
loved to tell anytime she
18:24
could talk about that story like
18:26
she was talking about that story
18:28
.
18:29
I need to plug the computer in real quick . I'm
18:32
sensing a theme every week , but
18:37
I like Carrie Fisher . If you have not
18:39
read any of her books like , I , highly
18:41
recommend it . They're
18:44
so good . Some
18:47
get a little bit deeper than others . Um
18:49
one of them , it like made
18:52
me bawl my eyes out but
18:54
like there's some ? um , where
18:56
was it ? The
19:01
one I can't remember . I think
19:03
her daughter may have read it , but
19:05
it was talking all about filming
19:08
Star Wars and a lot of it talked about her
19:10
affair that she had with Harrison Ford .
19:14
I don't know if I have read that one yet , but
19:17
I've heard a few of the stories from that am
19:21
I pushing you over ?
19:22
I don't think so .
19:24
I'm just wandering away , I'm very pushy
19:26
, so am . I Speaking
19:32
, though , of their romance In
19:38
the book , which was based on a diary Fisher
19:41
kept during A New Hope . Yeah , that's
19:43
got to be that one . Yeah , she claimed that she had
19:45
an affair with Harrison Ford during production . Ford
19:48
himself confirmed that the affair happened , but
19:50
has not chosen to elaborate out of respect for
19:52
Fisher , who died just a month after
19:54
the book was published .
19:56
The book was so good Like there's
19:58
so much tea in that book . It
20:01
was so great what
20:03
.
20:07
Oh , okay , I forgot about this . When you're gonna love it , all right , all right . While the late peter mayhew
20:10
may not have had a single speaking role in
20:12
all of star wars , the character he played , chewbacca
20:15
, is easily the most lovable
20:17
sidekick in the entire franchise . Yes
20:19
, but while the iconic wookiee is
20:21
recognizable on screen from afar , he
20:23
could be mistaken for something else entirely . Like
20:25
a bear or like Bigfoot Earth
20:28
, wookie Bigfoot . This
20:31
was the situation Mayhew found himself
20:33
in when filming the Endor scenes
20:35
of Return of the . Jedi in the Redwoods
20:37
. While shooting in
20:39
the Redwood Forest in Northern California
20:41
, Mayhew was escorted by men wearing orange
20:43
vests whenever he was in costume . Their
20:46
concern was that a hunter would mistake him
20:49
for a Sasquatch and shoot him .
20:51
I'm telling you like a Wookiee
20:53
. It makes you wonder Originally
20:57
, where did we ? We talked about
20:59
the look of Chewbacca
21:02
change and evolve over
21:06
time .
21:07
It was originally Did we talk about it in our Creatures
21:09
episode .
21:10
No , we did not . Oh
21:12
my goodness , now I can't
21:14
remember , but we talked about how he
21:16
evolved and it looked entirely
21:19
different . What
21:23
was it ? Or
21:31
was it that the Ewoks changed ? Oh my god , I can't
21:33
even remember because we talked about
21:35
how it changed . And the Ross ? Oh , okay , never
21:37
mind , I'm all right , I know I , we
21:39
got there . So originally we were talking
21:42
about when
21:44
we read warwick davis's book and him
21:46
being an ewok that originally
21:48
, in return of the jedi , they were going
21:50
to go back to the planet of kashyyyk
21:52
and have the wookies fight
21:54
um the empire
21:56
, but because of how
21:58
tabaka had been portrayed and being bigger
22:01
, stronger character , they didn't want to do that . That's
22:03
why they created the Ewoks , the
22:06
more primitive species . There we
22:08
go . I was like I know
22:10
we talked about this and I couldn't get to it
22:12
. We did , we did , we
22:14
got there . Good job . But it makes me wonder
22:16
when you created Chewbacca
22:19
, like , did he have inspiration
22:22
from Bigfoot stories ?
22:24
He had to right right . It looks too much like bigfoot
22:26
to have like no inspiration
22:29
so similar to bigfoot
22:31
.
22:31
I'm sure if you get a bigfoot specialist he would say
22:34
that they sound the same too . Oh
22:36
, I bet because of the long . That's
22:38
. What we also learned , too was the long vocal cords
22:40
are so stretched . Yes , when
22:42
we talked , that was our wookie versus
22:45
ewok episode . Oh yeah , there
22:47
we go . That's when we talked about it . We're
22:50
our sad attempts of trying to learn how to speak
22:52
. She woke .
22:53
Yes , they weren't great , but we
22:56
tried uh , so phil says
22:58
he got to meet peter mayhew in the early 2000s
23:00
and he was such a sweet , sweet man yes , I
23:02
got to meet him at celebration .
23:04
Four in la . I didn't buy
23:06
like the autograph or anything and this
23:08
was back in the time , because it was like 2004
23:11
or 5 . Okay , I walked
23:13
up and took a picture with him , oh
23:15
, and they didn't charge , like I was like hey
23:17
, I'm a fan . And I chit-chatted with them . I
23:20
was like , can I get a picture ? And he's like , yeah , can
23:22
I get a picture ? And he's like yeah sure , we took a picture
23:25
. We interacted I also did that with David Krauss , yeah
23:28
, and we met
23:31
Larry Baker . I
23:34
think I didn't get a picture with them but I
23:36
also All of the same .
23:38
Yeah .
23:38
Yeah , yeah . And this is back when , like
23:40
Luke Skywalker , so um Mark
23:45
Hamill's autograph was only like $60
23:47
back then , whoa , carrie Fisher's
23:49
$60 .
23:50
And back then it's wild to think of like .
23:52
And what's crazy was , back then I was complaining
23:55
about how expensive it was . I
24:04
was like God , this is way too much money for a celebrity . Like it's like it's just a signature
24:07
right . And now you're like hundreds . I'm gonna say some of them three , 350 . And I'm like this is astronomical
24:09
and it's not necessarily the celebrities that set the pricing .
24:11
Yeah , it's their teams and their agents and
24:13
their agencies .
24:14
I'm gonna say the people who set up all the a
24:17
lot of the cons sometimes cons
24:19
will have a set like this
24:21
is what you're trying to do because they have to make a certain
24:23
amount of money back to pay for
24:25
the celebrities
24:28
.
24:28
But I wish I would have got all those autographs
24:31
back then , I was a poor
24:33
college student right after
24:35
we graduated high school , like one or two years after
24:37
.
24:37
I was working at Disney at that time . That
24:39
was my first time I ever cosplayed
24:41
. I cosplayed as padme from
24:43
attack of the clones I
24:46
gotta find them that's the thing they're on
24:48
a hard drive somewhere , and
24:51
once you find them , then we'll put some stuff together
24:53
. I have moved several times
24:55
since then , so I don't know where the hard drive
24:57
is .
24:58
Well , you look . You
25:01
look and when you find them , we'll put them up . So
25:04
we've got the next one . Director Irving
25:06
Kirshner told of a particularly
25:08
memorable shot that was taken during one such
25:10
storm , while they were filming
25:13
on Hoth . They were like in the middle of like
25:15
blizzards and freezing winds
25:17
. So , Empire Strikes Back , yep . The
25:19
shot in question was a scene where Luke wanders
25:22
back to base after the Wampa attack , unable
25:25
to leave their hotel due to the winds
25:27
. The production
25:29
crew stayed at the entrance and filmed
25:31
while Mark Hamill wandered
25:33
around in the snow .
25:36
But it was too cold for everybody to go out , they just made him stay there . But it's
25:38
too cold for everybody to go out , but they would sit down , man
25:40
, they just made a stand , yeah
25:43
they shot from like the doorway
25:45
oh
25:49
sorry , bro , you're Luke . Skywalker
25:51
, you'll be fine . You're the face of the movie
25:53
, so you gotta do it .
25:55
Sorry , we can't afford to . Yeah , I've heard
25:57
that story
26:00
.
26:00
Do it ? Sorry , we can't afford to take these people . Yeah , I've
26:02
heard that story Because it got really
26:05
, really cold . Wasn't it like negative temperatures
26:07
Were they filmed at ?
26:08
I believe I would look it up , I
26:11
don't remember yeah .
26:12
I would look it up on my phone .
26:16
I would too , but I got my stories on my phone . Okay , back to funny
26:18
stories from the set of A New Hope , though . One of
26:20
the funniest behind-the-scenes stories was
26:23
while they were in Tunisia . So while shooting
26:26
scenes for Tatooine , the production crew for the biblical
26:28
epic Jesus of
26:30
Nazareth had set up shop nearby
26:32
. For the most part , the
26:35
two crews didn't bother each other very much , that
26:37
is , until one of the remote-controlled
26:39
R2 units malfunctioned , unable
26:42
to stop the droid which no longer
26:44
responded to radio control
26:47
the
26:49
crew watched helplessly as R2-D2
26:52
paid the folks at the Jesus of Nazareth
26:54
cinema visit .
26:56
Oh my gosh , All
26:58
these religious people are like what
27:01
in tarnations ? What in tarnations ?
27:06
No , they say tarnation in Tunisia
27:09
. Oh my gosh , it's like a
27:11
southern thing , right .
27:14
I don't know why I wasn't there with that .
27:19
They're like baby Jesus , and
27:21
here comes R2-D2 . What
27:23
is this ?
27:24
metal devil doing over here .
27:30
I love R2 . He is my favorite for so
27:32
many reasons .
27:34
He's also the most vulgar character in
27:36
um he's always being bleeped out
27:38
. Vulgar character . And um he's always being bleeped out . Mm-hmm . So
27:43
vulgar he could be
27:45
bleeped out all the time everything's
27:50
a poor little word .
27:55
Oh okay , all right let me look up my next
27:57
article .
27:58
Oh goodness , I
28:01
love R2 . R2's great
28:03
. He is my freaking favorite
28:06
. Oh , talking about where's my book ? Oh
28:08
, I put it right there . Yes , we're going
28:10
to my book . Well , I'll pick
28:12
that up . Okay , it's fine
28:15
. Denise is knocking over things when
28:17
?
28:18
is Well , you're looking for the next one
28:20
. While filming the Empire
28:22
Strikes Back , Fisher rented Eric
28:24
Idle's house .
28:25
Who's Eric Idle . He was in Monty Python
28:28
. Oh okay , my grandmother was obsessed
28:31
with Monty Python .
28:32
Yeah , oh yeah . I like Monty Python . It's
28:36
so fun Going
28:40
back to the baby Jesus and the
28:42
children shall lead . What the hell is that
28:44
? tin
28:47
can devil that's
28:52
probably one of my favorites . Oh
28:54
, okay , okay . The
28:57
Monty Python actor was still spending time
28:59
at the property while he was renting it , and
29:02
one night he invited the Rolling Stones over
29:04
. Fisher asked
29:06
Fisher
29:11
asked Harrison for to join too
29:13
, and the two actors drank and partied with
29:15
the band . The only problem was that they were due
29:17
on set in a few hours . We
29:21
weren't hungover , fisher said . About filming the scene
29:23
, we were still in our cups , so they were
29:25
still drunk . So what movie was
29:27
this for Empire ? And
29:30
if you watch the movie , you can see that Harrison
29:32
and I are smiling as we arrive in Cloud City
29:34
. Doesn't that sound like a euphemism
29:36
? I
29:41
like it . I don't keep getting so far away
29:43
from it .
29:44
I don't know , because I'm being pussy .
29:46
I don't think you are , though I
29:48
think I'm just wandering away . I found
29:50
what I wanted to show you though .
29:52
Yeah , let's do it . It's another droid . Oh
29:54
, who is he ? That is Astro-McDroidGT22
29:59
. Hello , gt22 . But
30:01
again , you guys , I'm telling you my
30:03
like Look at that droid
30:05
, I can't believe it . Look
30:08
at him . I
30:10
think he's cool . And Owen's like no
30:12
, he's not as cool as R2 .
30:14
He's right , he's not as cool as R2 . But
30:17
we should make one .
30:19
I think this one is so cool looking .
30:21
I like the droids Me too , the droids
30:23
and the creatures .
30:24
Totally my favorites . Creatures
30:28
. I love creatures .
30:30
Whoa , what is ?
30:31
that Uh well , uh , show them that
30:34
creature .
30:36
Whatever this thing is , it's amazing
30:38
. I don't know . It's
30:42
kind of a touca , but like a thousand times bigger
30:45
Volca With horns Volca .
30:49
Sorry , my like this
30:54
is rad , distracted , like
30:56
all over the place today . It's
30:58
fine . I had a very long day . I
31:01
think it's because I keep moving back and I don't want to just
31:03
smack you in the face right now . Oh , okay
31:05
, maybe that's like .
31:07
That's some excitement I'd rather not have , but if we did , at
31:09
least it would be on video . That would be funny
31:11
. It would Okay
31:14
. Um , this was one
31:16
of my favorite things to read too . Okay . So
31:19
while filming Empire Strikes Back , fisher
31:21
asked her space brother , Mark Hamill , to try on
31:23
her Hoth space jumpsuit During
31:25
the 2017 Star Wars celebration . Hamill
31:28
told the audience how Fisher then accessorized
31:30
the outfit with clown nose glasses
31:32
and bozo hair , and
31:34
after Hamill was dressed , fisher took him by the
31:36
hand and paraded him around the entire studio
31:39
. Oh my goodness
31:41
, he also wore Fisher's floral
31:44
robe around set simply because she asked
31:46
him to . After sharing the story
31:48
, Hamill said I don't think I would have done that for anybody
31:50
but her . Nothing pleased me more than making
31:52
her laugh .
31:53
You know they always every story you
31:55
hear , especially between like Carrie
31:58
Fisher and Mark Hamill . They always
32:00
just seem like they genuinely had
32:02
a lot of fun together yeah like
32:04
they are always goofing off
32:06
, like truly like a brother-sister relationship . Yeah
32:08
, it's a really , really fun
32:11
, like I'm gonna say , and you can see that
32:13
too in the relationship on screen
32:15
, which makes me sad because I wish we would have
32:17
got more in the sequels . Yeah
32:19
, except that one scene , but
32:22
they didn't bring him in
32:24
for right or force
32:28
awakens and then carrie fisher passed
32:31
away . They weren't able to do much with her
32:33
oh I wish we could have
32:35
seen more of the brother sister , but you could tell
32:37
that they still cared I . I wanted
32:40
to know more about their story , like I
32:42
want to know more about what happens between Return
32:45
and the Rise .
32:45
We could still get like a TV show where
32:47
they could go back . You know they could do something animated
32:50
or have actors play younger versions
32:52
of themselves , maybe .
32:54
So I know some people don't like it . So I know some people don't like
32:56
it , but I am totally okay with
32:58
actors like them
33:01
recasting characters
33:05
Like I have no problem and
33:07
I know Mark Hamill has said he has no problem
33:09
if they hire an actor to come in to
33:11
play a younger him . Right , yeah
33:13
, I think the only
33:15
one I might have like
33:18
an issue seeing is like somebody
33:21
else playing Princess Leia . Yeah
33:23
, but
33:27
I don't .
33:27
I think that's the only one I'd ever be like . Hmm , like it carries our princess
33:29
right , unless we're talking about different
33:32
ages .
33:32
I'm saying because the child one was really
33:34
good , she was fantastic . But
33:43
that's like Liam Nilsen said , he doesn't want anybody to ever play Qui-Gon , but then , like
33:45
we have the whole Ahsoka show , coming out season two Like are they recasting
33:47
both .
33:48
Is it gonna be CGI or ?
33:51
I think they're gonna have to recast them and
33:53
I'm okay with that Like his story was as
33:55
long as they do a good job with what they're doing Like
33:58
, yeah , just continue to tell the story . Yeah
34:01
, so side note , sorry , speaking
34:03
of all the fun that you think that they had on
34:05
set .
34:06
Here's a story to illustrate that . All right , so
34:08
on a particularly hot day while filming
34:10
the original trilogy , someone brought squirt
34:12
guns to the set . Okay , peter
34:16
Mayhew , the actor who played Chewbacca , remembers Fisher grabbing one and running
34:18
around in costume soaking Harrison Ford , mark
34:21
Hamill and anyone else who got in her way
34:23
, and eventually someone had to take
34:25
the toy away from her Did she squirt
34:27
.
34:27
Like Did
34:32
she ? You paused at the wrong place , I
34:34
know . Did
34:36
she use the water gun
34:39
on Peter Mayhew while he was
34:41
in costume ? Could you imagine like
34:44
a Wookiee costume wet , are you
34:46
excited ? Blasted
34:50
with a water gun ? They're
34:54
terrible people . I know they're
34:56
terrible , it's funny Terrible people
34:58
, but it smelled like that wet , like burn
35:00
Ohrible people . But it smelled like that wet , like fur
35:03
.
35:03
Oh yeah , it's so hot , people
35:05
definitely sweat inside of it .
35:07
But is it real hair ? Is it synthetic hair
35:09
, like was it ? It's gotta
35:11
be synthetic , right ? I don't know , like we
35:15
know people
35:19
who use real hair . I
35:22
think I didn't
35:25
want to say name . Yeah , that's right
35:27
, wouldn't that be even ?
35:29
heavier though .
35:30
Not necessarily . It's all
35:32
about the spacing Wet
35:35
yak hair .
35:36
You gross Yak , let's see .
35:43
What else you got for us , Rexy ? Checking
35:48
for the next one .
35:54
Oh , here we go .
35:56
I think I might know which one you're talking about . Yeah , I think Can , I guess . Yeah , I think
35:58
I might know which one you're talking about Can ? I guess I
36:01
do know that during A New Hope
36:03
the actor who
36:05
played Grand Moff Tarkin would constantly
36:07
wear his slippers around the set instead
36:09
of his shoes , because
36:12
they didn't ever show his feet , so he wore
36:14
house shoes around the . Is that
36:16
not , it ?
36:18
No , no , yeah
36:23
, he would not . Oh yeah
36:25
, you would wear head , shoes and everything and
36:27
then like bunny slippers .
36:29
It would be great if it was bunny slippers , but I don't think
36:31
it was bunny slippers .
36:32
Oh , I hope it was bunny slippers .
36:35
Oh , so never mind . What was your story , Rexy
36:37
?
36:39
Ummm , oh , so never mind
36:42
what was your story , Rexy .
36:43
Here we go .
36:43
So at one point during filming for Return of the Jedi
36:46
, hamill and Fisher were pulled aside and
36:48
told that their characters were actually twins
36:50
, separated at first . Upon
36:52
hearing this , hamill asked Well , if I'm Luke Skywalker
36:54
from the moisture farm on Tatooine and
36:59
she's Princess Leia , does that make royalty ? Does that make me royalty
37:01
? Without missing a beat , fisher said
37:03
no .
37:05
She wasn't . He wasn't adopted
37:08
by the royal family of .
37:09
Alderaan Nope , nope , and it wasn't
37:11
a blood thing .
37:14
It was my adopted family .
37:17
Alright , I have . I've got one more
37:19
, so you .
37:19
You say your next thing .
37:21
I'll look up my next thing Talking about
37:23
adopted family .
37:24
So we have Leia , who was adopted by
37:26
the Organas , and then Luke
37:28
Skywalker is taken back to Tafelene
37:31
, where his father was born With
37:34
the same last name . Skywalker , that's
37:37
not really like a oh .
37:43
No , it's not . That name is not like oh , it's 15 minutes to sunset . My
37:45
watch just let me know , is it ? Yes , I
37:47
have it set up to tell me when it's 15 minutes . I
37:50
don't . Where
37:52
are they ?
37:54
am I making you lose your spirit ?
37:55
place again . No , it switched over
37:58
to a different page and it , like it
38:00
, didn't bookmark my place , just the page
38:02
itself .
38:03
Oh , no , okay .
38:07
So I'm gonna tell you some really funny
38:10
bad reviews . Oh
38:13
, I like bad reviews , okay
38:15
. So this one Okay , there we go . This one is from the very first one from Star
38:18
Wars or Star Wars . A New one ? Okay , there
38:20
we go . This one is from the very first one from
38:22
Star Wars or Star Wars A New Hope . Okay
38:24
, there's no breather in the picture , no
38:27
lyricism . The only attempt at beauty
38:29
is in the double sunset . It's enjoyable
38:31
on its own terms , but it's exhausting , too Like
38:35
taking
38:39
a pack of kids to the circus there is
38:41
a lot going on .
38:43
So I guess I can kind of see that . But that's
38:45
a three part story
38:47
within a three part well actually nine
38:49
part story . There
38:52
is a lot going on .
38:53
Yeah , but at the time that
38:55
had come out , I think it was the only Star Wars they had
38:57
ever had though here
39:00
we got another one . It's an epic without a dream
39:02
, but it's probably the absence of wonder
39:04
that accounts for the film's special
39:07
, huge success . The excitement
39:09
of those who call it the film of the year goes
39:11
way past nostalgia , to the feeling
39:13
that now is the time to return to childhood . An
39:16
hour into it , children say that they're ready to see
39:18
it again . That's because it's an assemblage
39:20
of spare parts . It has no emotional
39:22
grip .
39:27
So Really .
39:30
I saw that the first time when I was like a
39:32
small child , like five or six
39:34
, okay , and I was hooked Immediately
39:37
.
39:37
Yeah that's what it's saying that the children are hooked because it's
39:39
not .
39:39
Oh yeah , I was a child . Okay , Immediately .
39:41
That's what it's saying . The children are hooked Because it's not . Oh , yeah , I was a child
39:43
. Okay , yeah , I can see . Like I know Adults who watch
39:45
it For the first time . A lot of them
39:47
are like Okay
39:50
, like , yeah , they're not , not
39:52
super into it , it's a very
39:54
. It's
40:05
a much simpler , yet not simpler story , if that makes sense . Like it's very . A kid gets , watches his
40:07
family die , he goes out into outer space . Oh , he now has these powers and he joins this rebellion
40:09
and now he becomes the hero and it's
40:13
. It's the story that's been told
40:15
a ton of times
40:17
. Yeah , but in space
40:19
, which also had already been told in space
40:21
, because then we have Dune .
40:22
Like it's a very
40:25
common story , but it still just like resonated
40:27
with so many of us . But and people like that
40:29
, A bunch of people were not about it .
40:30
People like that storyline of the
40:34
under what's . Oh , what's the
40:36
word that I'm looking for ? The underdog .
40:40
The what's the word that I'm looking for ? The underdog , the underdog story . People like to root for the underdog .
40:41
That's what that story was , and that's why people liked it , because
40:44
they saw themselves as an underdog , just
40:46
living their daily life and then going
40:48
off and then saving the entire
40:50
galaxy Like but
40:53
I can see it Adults watch it now and they're
40:55
like .
40:56
They're like , yeah , like , if you get somebody
40:58
that wasn't a fan forever . And you're like , hey
41:00
, sit down and watch A New Hope , Like we
41:02
always fall asleep to that movie . So many times
41:05
Matt falls asleep to it every time .
41:07
My child , my 12-year-old child
41:09
, will not watch the originals . Yeah
41:11
, because he finds them boring .
41:13
That makes sense , the
41:16
more we get into it .
41:17
I think the more we appreciate
41:19
it , the more complex the stories get . And they also , but I
41:21
think the help of technology
41:23
and CGI and all the special
41:26
effects , because they just didn't have it
41:28
. No , they didn't . They created
41:30
the special effects for the movies . They
41:32
created like , um
41:35
, what Got another
41:37
?
41:37
one . Oh no , I
41:39
sincerely hope that science
41:42
and scientists differ from science fiction
41:44
and its practitioners . Heaven
41:46
help us . If they don't , we may be headed for a
41:48
very boring world indeed . Drip
41:50
Star Wars of its often striking images
41:52
and its highfalutin scientific jargon and
41:55
you get a story , characters and dialogue
41:57
of overwhelming banality , without
41:59
even a future cast to them human
42:02
beings , anthropods or robots
42:04
you could probably find them all more
42:06
or less like that in downtown los angeles
42:09
today . Oh dull
42:11
new world .
42:12
So I'm
42:14
listening to the reviews and
42:17
they're talking about how it's not really complex
42:19
. It's kind of boring . These were
42:21
movies that were written for children
42:23
movies and lucas has said that over
42:26
and over and over again . They are kid
42:28
films , especially the originals . They
42:30
are kid films and you can see that in this story
42:32
. And then you , yeah
42:34
, the prequels are like , oh , let's make it
42:36
all war and politics
42:39
, yep . So people who say politics are
42:41
not in Star Wars yes , it is . It's
42:43
been there from the very beginning . Huge .
42:45
Yeah , yeah , I
42:48
mean all of this is based
42:50
on Star Wars . Yeah Well yeah
42:52
yeah , we are treated
42:54
to a galactic civil war . Assorted heroes
42:56
and villains , a princely maiden in distress
42:58
, a
43:02
splendid old man surviving from an extinct order of knights who possessed a mysterious power called
43:04
the Force , and it is all as exciting
43:06
as last year's weather reports . Why
43:09
? Even the most exciting fight is an old-fashioned
43:11
duel . For
43:13
all that , the swords have laser beams for
43:15
blades .
43:17
You were very underwhelming Laser sword
43:20
. Fight Laser sword but like , and it was , they were very underwhelming laser sword , but
43:22
like and it was . I mean I
43:25
think we appreciate them so much because
43:27
we are so involved in the story
43:29
and we grew up with it , but also
43:32
like so there's some nostalgia factor , there's
43:35
a lot of nostalgia factor , but also now
43:37
they've expanded on so much , like
43:40
with the Obi-Wwan kenobi show . They
43:42
definitely play into that , because obi-wan
43:44
now at this point , like after the show
43:46
, he was like he became
43:49
, like he got peace with himself , he
43:51
found , like he knew what happened with vader , and
43:53
even vader was like you didn't do this to me
43:56
, like I am , like I am yeah
43:58
, and this is not your fault like
44:00
I , I did this , I did this and I so
44:02
I think , when obi-wan went to
44:04
um , when he was confronting
44:06
vader in a new hope , now
44:09
that we know all this , he wasn't going to put
44:11
up a big fight , like he's already come to peace with
44:13
that . So he's going to kind
44:15
of just what it is staying there and he's going to sacrifice
44:18
himself so the next generation can
44:21
live on .
44:22
Yep , kinda like Luke does in the Last Jedi , and we know
44:24
so much about him .
44:27
They're connecting Circles , circles . Luke
44:29
did what his uh , his master
44:32
taught him .
44:33
And he sacrificed . So that
44:36
the resistance could escape and get
44:38
away . And we know
44:40
all of that now and that makes us like , yes
44:43
, yes , here it is all
44:45
trite characterization and paltry verbiage
44:47
. The one exception is
44:49
Alec Guinness as the grand old man , Ben
44:52
Kenobi Ben
44:54
for the Hebrew , Ben to make him
44:56
sound biblical and good . Kenobi
44:59
probably from cannabis , ie hashes
45:01
, for reasons you can probably guess . Still
45:07
, Star Wars will do very nicely for those
45:09
lucky enough to be children or
45:11
unlucky enough never to have grown up . I
45:14
would count myself very lucky to have
45:16
never actually had to grow up .
45:18
My kid called me out last night for being a
45:20
child .
45:22
I feel like that's a high five .
45:26
We were talking on our way home and he's like
45:28
Mom , aren't you just a big child with
45:30
? All your Star Wars toys and Legos
45:32
. I'm like you
45:34
know what you play your video
45:36
games . I talk my Star Wars , so
45:40
hush you .
45:42
Here we go . Speaking of kids , if you are
45:44
a kid at heart , a die-hard Star Trek
45:47
fan or just a confirmed addict of Marvel
45:49
comics , star Wars will completely
45:51
dazzle . Using such
45:53
interplanetary stalwarts as Flash
45:55
Gordon and Buck Rogers for inspiration , director
45:58
George Lucas has concocted a mind-blowing
46:00
spectacle that sends the audience off into the
46:02
wondrously strange world of fantasy
46:05
and satisfies just about everyone's adolescent
46:07
craving for a corny , old-fashioned
46:09
adventure movie . I
46:12
mean , they're not wrong . It's
46:14
a fun adventure movie .
46:15
It's very on point , so it makes sense
46:18
.
46:22
Star Wars is somewhat grounded
46:24
by a malfunctioning script and
46:27
hopelessly infantile dialogue
46:29
. Surrounded by these fascinating
46:31
creatures , the actors barely hold their own
46:34
, to be sure . Mark Hamill has
46:36
a bland-faced innocence as Skywalker
46:38
, and Carrie Fisher is comically
46:40
plucky as the distressed Princess
46:42
Leia . But Harrison Ford hams
46:44
it up terribly as Han Solo , a
46:47
cynical space pirate who has flown
46:49
from one side of this galaxy to another and
46:51
seen a lot of stuff .
46:52
So okay , let's touch base
46:55
on that . Even George Lucas has admitted
46:57
he is not the best writer , and that is
46:59
why Empire and Return of the Jedi are
47:01
significantly better stories than A
47:03
New Hope . Because somebody else like
47:06
wrote it . Like
47:08
I know , somebody else directed it , Did somebody else write it ? Or
47:10
I think they helped write it . Um , which
47:14
one are we looking at ?
47:14
Empire Strikes Back . You
47:17
want the director .
47:18
Who wrote it ?
47:23
That wasn't a word at all , lucas
47:26
Lee Brackett .
47:29
Okay , yeah , I'm going to say he had more people helping writing
47:31
. There were a lot of people .
47:33
Wait , that's the whole cast . Lawrence , there we go
47:35
. Who is it ?
47:35
I knew it Lawrence Lawrence
47:37
Kasdan . Who is it ? I
47:40
knew it Lawrence Lawrence Kasdan . Yeah
47:42
, so Thank you . So Lucas did not write
47:45
the Empire .
47:46
Oh , okay .
47:47
He brought in other people , which was originally
47:49
going to be what he wanted to do with
47:51
the prequels . He was going to do the first
47:53
one , okay , and then bring people in to do
47:55
number two and number three , and
47:57
he had people lined up but number two and number three . And he had
47:59
people lined up , but Ron Howard was supposed to do one
48:01
and he couldn't . He didn't have
48:03
the time for it . So then Lucas just did it all
48:05
.
48:05
What was Ron ?
48:06
Howard doing ? I don't know .
48:10
Anybody know what Ron Howard was working on
48:12
when he had to turn down ?
48:13
Empire , well , not Empire . The prequels , oh the prequels .
48:15
When he had to turn down the prequels , prequels
48:20
I don't remember what , but I do know he had to empire
48:22
. Doesn't make sense . Ron
48:28
howard would have been like nine .
48:29
No , he would have been daddy , wasn't when did the any little
48:31
kid in the indian ?
48:31
yeah , I don't know when did andy griffith come out ?
48:33
I don't know . No , because it was black , and white
48:35
.
48:35
Oh , 50s maybe . Oh
48:38
yeah , okay , so ron howard was a kid in the
48:40
50s .
48:41
Apollo 13 . Maybe I think that sounds
48:43
about right . Oh , okay , yeah
48:46
, there was other like movies that he had
48:48
to do I have ?
48:48
no concept of time no , you don't
48:51
it's okay
48:53
, he wrote it would have been in like his 20s
48:56
or 30s probably . Oh
49:00
my gosh , we have been on here for 49
49:02
minutes .
49:04
Um yeah , so
49:06
that's
49:08
fun .
49:11
We'll do one of these again , for maybe the next group
49:13
.
49:15
Ooh , I'm already thinking of ideas for next week's episode
49:17
, so yeah , these
49:20
are really fun I really like hanging out with
49:22

49:45

50:11
, and then Movie Theater
50:13
, and then we got on the 4th , may 4th
50:15
, of course , tales of the Empire
50:17
May
50:20
4th all episodes . Let's
50:23
talk next week about the trailer and
50:26
predictions that we have . Okay , it'll
50:30
be like a whole other act , oh
50:33
man this is fantastic . The
50:35
trailer is also good for doing entire episodes
50:37
we'll talk about Tales of the Jedi , yeah
50:40
, so tune in for that .
50:41
We're going to hang out and about the tales uh
50:43
trailer maybe we'll throw in a little bit
50:45
of tales of the empire , which
50:48
is so funny because yeah , tales of the empire is coming , tales
50:50
of the jedi was last year because they at celebration
50:53
was it last year in
50:56
london when they did the
50:58
they announced the tales of the jedi 2 . So was it just , oh yeah
51:00
, they did the . They announced the Tales of the Jedi 2 . So was it just , oh yeah , they did . Maybe
51:02
this is part two .
51:04
Maybe in part two they did Tales of the Empire . Oh
51:07
, I have other things I want to talk about .
51:09
Next week , next week , okay , next
51:11
week , then yes , okay so maybe we'll hit
51:13
on the what was the game
51:15
trailer that I just watched today .
51:21
Star Wars .
51:21
Outlaws way that I just watched today star wars outlaws , outlaws . Maybe we can talk about
51:23
that trailer too .
51:23
I've never wanted to play a star wars game more than I want to play this one . I am so proud
51:25
of myself . I called it that kira is
51:27
going to be in it . You did a quick snippet
51:30
. That is because it takes place here in the empire
51:32
and they got all the crime snippets
51:34
their name dropped . Why would kira not
51:36
be in it ? She is running . Yes , sheson
51:38
Dawn , she's taken over by now . We
51:41
see Han Solo and Vox .
51:42
We see Han Solo and Carbonite in the trailer and
51:45
immediately I was like Kira's going to be in it , so we're going
51:47
to see , because she is the one who got
51:49
the information out . Yep , yep , she knew
51:51
that , so I wonder if
51:53
Leia might make an appearance during that busted
51:55
him out and that's kind of during the same
51:58
.
51:58
I don't think so I just think it's going to be . This character
52:00
is going to have some run ins with the
52:03
job of the hut , doing some jobs , okay and
52:05
