Donomark Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 "Rape-stained bikini" That's a phrase which will require some therapy-ing out of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dc20willsave Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Talk about a well timed episode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Great episode guys, brilliant stuff. On the ewok huts most cultures build communal buildings with higher roofs for better ventialtion from fires, acoustics and general atmosphere. All the other huts were ewok-sized.

Stavros Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 With the dress Leia was clearly just swapping one rape-stained set of clothes for another. I mean, they're clearly planning on cooking the rest of them but not Leia, what were they planning for her? Maybe the guys weren't the only ones about to be spit-roasted. #fuckingDARK #sosorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 So you guys are reviewing the prequels right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Yup. The plan is to have all six reviewed by May 2013. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Incidentally, the poster for this film, the one Mike created the banner out of, is, for my money, the best poster of the entire saga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 I'm more partial to the original film's poster, but that one is still incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 I never picked up on the rape thing till it was said in Family Guy, where Leia outright says to Luke, while wearing the dress "I wasn't raped" very angrily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted November 6, 2012 Report Share Posted November 6, 2012 Finished the episode, this, wasn't as epic as I was hoping. Your review made me realise, how very little there was in the actual film. There's fighting Jabba, Ewoks and then the final fight with Vader and the Emperor, and the happy ending that's it, I don't know why, but whenever I think of Jedi, I thought there was so much more. Also, great background information as always from Dan. Again, great episode, just a shame the movie, is so short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batguy10 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 You guys kind of had a small gripe regarding Yoda's lesson/ teaching and how at the end of Empire it was "too soon, and he needed more training before versing Vader" and in Jedi "His training was complete, and the final test was to face Vader". Now, I'm not trying to defend it, but is it possible that Luke has returned and trained more with Yoda after the events of Empire. I don't think it would take him a full year to build a new saber, and devise possibly THE WORST PLAN EVER. But then again, you guys have read the Star Wars novels and I haven't, so is something said in a novel that says other wise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 I know you agreed to do the prequels, but technically there are two more live action Star Wars films to review before you get there- Any chance of an episode covering these?

Dread Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Watched Battle For Endor with my sons a little while back, and its only slightly cheesier than Return of the Jedi. Fun, stupid movie. Plus, it's chock full of Wilford Brimley and his diabetes-fightin' action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 They are both available on DVD. For that matter, there was the Clone Wars movie a couple of years back. Counting the Holiday Special (not that anyone counts the Holiday Special) that makes four additional Star Wars films in addition to the official 6.

Koete Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 And then if you add in fan films, we're looking at 822. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 I'd be willing to do the two Ewok moves, but only after we do the prequels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 For that matter, there was the Clone Wars movie a couple of years back. The Clone Wars movie I don't think should count merely because it's just the first few episodes of the show edited together. Also because it's horrible.

Rjoyadet Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I knew a guy who never saw the original series, he rented the special edition dvds and when it came to the ending where Hayden Christensen was revealed I heard him groan. At that moment he realized he was robbed of seeing its original glory. The few things I loved about the special edition was the panpipe and flutes at the end. It reminded me of Peruvian folk music. In fact, when I was in a marketplace in Lima, I saw a shirt with a conquistador standing in front of a Quechua shepherd, the conquistador had a Darth Vader shadow and the shepherd had a Yoda shadow. I regret not buying it. My favorite version of the Yub-Nub song was Simon Peggs version from "Spaced." The sound effects in ewok celebration is so exaggerated, that whenever I hear it I picture Han and Chewie tossing drunk ewoks around.

SteveJRogers Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Finally listened to this, and this comparison came to mind when discussing the dance scene in Jabba's: The original: Any scene at The Badda Bing Club on The Sopranos. Special Edition: Something you'd see in a Damon Runyun "Wacky Gangster" story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
