Finally, after 28 years of not consuming any media related to Star Wars, Kyle is forced to watch the movie that started it all. Topics include comparing both versions of Footloose, Storm Troopers being inept, Dune comparisons, and which movies we'd go back in time to see in theaters. 

- Data part. - Oh, data's brains out. - I just wondering, you know, after the school year, if I don't go to prison, and you know, they're not busy, man, we can go to a piece somewhere. - Pick up on Friday then. - Oh, right, Friday, uh-huh. - So, do you wanna do something to me? - What a wonderful day! - Cass, I'm your host for the episode Kyle. - Why do I have to say co-host when you say host? - You could say host, you got absolutely says. We used to say host when I listened to the podcast, back, you used to say host when you did the episode, and I would say co-host, but then you stopped wanting to do the, like, host the episodes. So then you started saying co-host. I never told you to say co-host. - But we're technically your co-host, I'm co-host. - No, we're both just hosts. - Hmm. - Yeah, you could say host, I'm not gonna stop here, I won't bleep it out. - And I'm the other host, Cassidy. - And this is date night. Now, we are both co-host, that is true. We'll both go by the title host. You don't have to say co-host, I always thought it was weird that you did, but I also was like, I'm not gonna say co-host, I run this shit. So I'm not saying co-host. You just falsely break movies and then show up when it's time to record. - Yeah, I do. - Well, I am another year older. - Yes. - I am 28. - First episode as a ripe 28. - Yep, and why is it that every year, 'cause this is our second year where I've had a birthday on the podcast, and you got to pick both times. How is that even impossible? How does that keep happening? Like once I was like, okay, well, next should be my choice. Somehow it was not, and we're doing Star Wars today, which caught me way the fuck off guard, but we will get there, because we have a whole section on that. Right now, let's talk about our date night. It was my birthday. - Yes. - That was the date night. That was the date night. - So we did whatever Kyle wanted to do. - Yep, my sister came down mostly. - Yeah, mostly. My sister came down. She hung out with us. We played a bunch of games, played scrabbles, categories, cards against humanity. We drank. What else did we do? Watch the movie? - We watched a movie. - Yep. - Classic Kyle. - We made pizzas. - Oh, yeah, we had homemade pizzas. - And I made Kyle a birthday cake. - Strawberry lemonade birthday cake, baby. - Yes, strawberry lemon. - Yeah, so that's just a strawberry lemonade. - Yes, lemon cake with homemade strawberry buttercream frosting. - Yeah, it was way over the top. You did not have to do all that. - A four tier thing. - Yeah, for three people, that we ended up sharing with like your brother and his girlfriend and I think your parents. And then I ate the rest of this. - Yep. - But then on Sunday, which was my actual birthday, we, I did gifts and then we went up to your parent's house and hung out of the chase and Ashley and swam. - Yeah. - And it was awesome 'cause it was oppressively hot on Sunday. It has been so hot. So like getting in a body of water that I don't have to swim in, I could just like stand up even in the deepest spot. Oh, it was so nice. It was so nice to just be able to do that. - Today when I was walking outside, I was like, "Oh, it'd be a real nice day to go with a pool." - Yeah, I mean it's-- - I was a woman. You know how I know when I'm dehydrated? When I start fantasizing about swimming and it's because my body just wants water and so it's like go swimming. - Well-- - For God, whenever I'm dehydrated, I'm like, "I gotta go swimming." - Yeah, but when you think about it, you grew up with a pool in your backyard. So like you could. - I took it for granted. I don't think I use that. Like I feel like if, and I say it now, I feel like if I had a pool now, I'd go in every night after work. - That's because you see the value in it. You're a teenager, you don't see the value in shit. - Yeah, so I was like meh. - Yeah, but you work now and you're still on this one. - Right, that's what I'm saying. Like I feel like getting home from work and being like, "Yeah, I'm gonna dip in the pool." - Oh, I thought you were saying that you didn't swim because you had a job. - No. - And I was like, "That doesn't make sense, baby girl." But now it does, yeah. - I didn't have a job, so I just like sat in the AC living room the most of the day during the summer and just never really like use the pool all that much. But now not having one, I'm like, "Man, wouldn't it be nice to go home and dip in the pool?" And I think my brother does it like every night now. - When he gets home from his, on his lunch break, he dips in the pool real quick and then goes back to work and I was so jealous of that. - I do vividly remember like on the really hot days of summer, I would just go skinny nipping right before bed 'cause it would cool you off and then it would feel so good to like lay in bed like all cold from the pool. - Yeah. - It was like the best. - You know what completes the day of summer? - What? - A sandwich with chips on it. Like there's just something about like swimming all day or like being in the pool all day and lounging and then eating a soggy ass sandwich with like Doritos on it. - Not soggy. - You don't see, I think like you gotta have a little bit of the like you're like, you're not gonna dry completely off before you eat, right? Like you gotta have a little bit of like, I'm not saying like drench the bread and like dip it in the water, but like you're not getting completely dry, so your bread's gonna be a little wet. And I feel like that's just like part of like the perfect summer experience is that kind of soggy, chippy sandwich you have afterward and maybe some of my lemonade, adult beverages now, but like back then lemonade. - I would definitely make sure my hands are completely dry. This girl does not do a soggy sandwich. - See, I think it's essential, essential eating in the summer time. - That's essential for you, not for me. - Is that why you always make the soggy? No, we don't eat sand. We didn't even, what do we have? Oh, we had cake after. We had cake after the pool, which is not good soggy. I do not like that. I made sure to dry off completely. I didn't want no water on that cake. - Yeah. - But yeah, that was pretty much it. Then we came home and I went to work the next day and life moves on. But it's 28, I'm 28. My back gave out, my back hurts a lot. I was like, damn, I don't think I can make it to 30 with how much pain I'm in, my knees hurt. - Right. - Like I go to bed at now at like seven 30. - Two years 'til you're 30. - I know, thank you. - How does that feel? - Thank you for that, that's awesome. I appreciate that song. - You get one more birthday in your 20s. - Oh yeah, no. - The next one is 30. - Yeah, keep saying that, that's awesome. Thank you. I appreciate that. Wow, I haven't thought of that. Crazy. Yeah, you'll be there. You'll get there. - At least I have, I have three more. - Yeah, we'll see. (laughing) - We'll see. - We'll see. - We'll see. - My birthday, which this year is to make you 30 faster. - Yeah. (laughing) - I realized that sounded like a vague threat. So I realized nobody knew the joke I'd made in my head about the birthday wish. - That's adorable. - That is terrible. Before we jump into this episode though, we had a poll last week. The question that we put out there was simply, when you rate a movie, are you rating it purely based on vibes? Yes, no. And then we had a third option, which was, I base it on technicality and vibes combined, right? And 71% of people said vibes only. - Yeah. - Is this shocking to you at all or no? - No. - I always side with the majority. - Yeah, to always side with the majority, that's dangerous. - I'm always the majority. My choice is always the majority's choice. Vibes only. - Vibes only, yeah. 'Cause I remember when we were talking about that, I was like, I do wonder how many people go on vibes, 'cause I've always had the assumption that like most people go on vibes. And that like, you know, more cinephile people will vote on like, or rate on technicality. But I found myself sort of like in the middle where like, I do do 50/50. I really do like a vibe of a movie means like so much. But also like, was it well made? And I think a perfect example of that recently that I saw was Maxine. And I was like, this looks fantastic. They're doing everything right on the technical side. It's just not a good movie. And so I gave it a three out of five because I was like, yeah, there's things I like, but the story is not very good. And everything around it's just not very good. The execution's not great. But the actual like technical side of it was good. And I was curious to send people agreed with the vibes only. And it was 71% of people, which was honestly kind of shocking. 'Cause I didn't think it'd be that high. But yeah, that's what that stood. Look out for our poll this week. I don't know what it's gonna be. I don't really come up with these until after I like edit them. And then I'm like, oh, okay, we talked about this. I'll make that poll. So we'll see what it is. But look down below and vote on that. And we'll keep talking about it. But we're gonna move over to the trailer game now. And again, Aussie, shout out to Aussie because it was his idea. We stayed home obviously. Our words is not in theaters. This is not a new release. So we watched it at home on Disney Plus. And so we had three trailers from 1977. This might be my oldest past to be. Has to be the oldest movie you've ever seen. I'm willing to bet you have not seen a movie older than this. 20th century Fox and George Lucas bring you an adventure unlike anything on your planet. [MUSIC PLAYING] Star Wars. Stop that kid. [MUSIC PLAYING] So from 1977, I picked three movies that came out that year at that. I mean, you watched the trailer for it. And the first one was "Close Encounters of a Third Kind." I think I would watch this one. It looked interesting. It looked like it could maybe hold its own for the movie from 1977. Again, I don't really like movies from-- You don't like anything before, like 2003. Let's be honest. You were going to say anything from before 2000. But I would say the '90s. Even that's a chore. Even that's a chore where I have to be sneaky. Do you want to watch this trailer? And I have to sneak around the year it came out. And then you always spot it. You're like, oh, this was filmed in the '90s. And I'm like, yeah, yeah it was. But no, if Kyle was like, hey, how about we watch this? I'd be like, OK. I wouldn't really give it a hard no. But I wouldn't pick it myself. Yeah. I have watched it. It's a good movie. I really enjoyed it. But I genuinely didn't think you'd like it. I didn't think you'd pick it. I thought you'd be like, fuck no. Because it's an alien movie. And I don't think we've watched a lot of alien movies together in the movie. Is that anything you're even interested in? Not really. I didn't think so. Because we've never-- that's the one area. We've watched more movies about underwater than we have outer space. Yeah, I mean, I don't mind outer space. It's the whole like alien abduction thing. Usually I saw your vibe. Yeah, no. Interesting. I love them. I'm a slut for the alien movies. The next movie we did, I had never seen the trailer for this before, but I've seen the movie. And it is Wes Craven's 1977 hit, The Hills Have Eyes. The Hills Have Eyes. The Hills Have Eyes. The Hills Have Eyes. The Hills Have Eyes. We're saying that. And people are listening to me and like, what the fuck are you guys saying? Go watch the trailer for this movie. I'm begging you. I don't say that often, but I'm begging you. Every 30 seconds, the narrator was like, the Hills Have Eyes. And then he would just ramble about something and then go, the Hills Have Eyes. And I was like, how many times are you going to say it? This trailer is like a minute and 30 seconds long. Yeah. Aside from the goofy ass trailer, would you watch this movie? No. Yeah, I didn't think so. This trailer was terrible. The special effects got off. It looks like comedic at how bad the special effects and acting in this movie is. Yes. It does not hold par to Star Wars. And they came out the same year. And it is laughable. The special effects are laughable compared to Star Wars. I actually do want to talk about the effects a little bit later in this movie, because we watched the Disney Plus version, which is the remastered version. So we'll get there. But I agree that the trailer for this, I was like, it's cartoonish. It's honestly funny. It gets so bad it's funny. And I was like, I wouldn't watch this movie based on this fucking trailer. It's terrible. It's terrible. That refused to die. And I'm like-- The Hills Have Eyes. And you're like, yeah, no, we get it. We get it. Thank you. Or they'd be like, from the dog's death to being trapped in a car. The Hills Have Eyes. And I was like, yeah, yeah, no, dude. Say it one more time. Does this guy get paid per time he says the Hills Have Eyes? It was unreal. I literally-- we burst out laughing during the trailer. And I was like, this can't actually be a real thing. The last movie we had that I selected, the trailer was-- there's only two trailers. One was a minute and 20 seconds. And it was just the first minute and 20 seconds of the movie, what was three minutes and 45 seconds? And y'all know how I feel about trailers. So we watched the first minute of the actual three minute trailer, and that is Saturday Night Fever. I want to watch this movie. It was actually one that I almost picked a few months ago when I was trying to expand my palette. What was this? I think it was when I chose the devil. Where's my product? How did you find this movie? Would you like-- how did you stumble upon that? I was trying-- I think I looked up iconic movies or something like that. That's why Saturday Night Fever popped up. I mean, it's good. It is good, but it's like, what's that iconic? Yeah, I also just like dancing movies. Yeah, fair point. And there's something about the way young John Travolta moves. OK, fair enough. Fair enough. I'll give you that. I picked this because I thought to be the only one you said yes to, and I felt kind of bad, making lots of trailer for Hills of Eyes. So I was like, we need to find something you're going to enjoy, or like-- she's going to be out on this whole episode of those three movies, which one, if they came out right now, and there are all three in theaters right now, which one would you go to? Saturday Night Fever. Yeah, fair enough. Yeah. I feel like you're the type that would watch Saturday Night Fever, and then you'd go back a second time and just do the dances. And you'd try to memorize the dances in the choreography, so you could do them later, too. I used to love the sing-along versions to the movies that came out. Oh my god. Yeah, but I had the bouncing ball on the screen. Yeah. And then actually, what do you mean when you still do? You lost the econ to one like eight times when it came out. Also, when the newer Footloose came out, there's a line dance that they do in that. And I learned the line dance in my childhood better at my home. And I was like, you might be the only person I know who likes that movie. I like that movie. The new Footloose. I like it. It has its moments, but we all know you like it because of Miles Teller. He is very funny, isn't he? Also, I really like Julian Hough. OK. I think she's a smoke show. That's one of the first movies you actually like made me watch. You're like, we got to watch Footloose with Miles Teller. And I was like, oh. Footloose with Miles Teller. I think that's the way I got you to watch it is because Miles Teller-- Yeah, I was like, oh, OK. Daddy's boy, right there. That's Daddy's boy. I like Miles Teller. I'll watch it. But no, I actually very generally like that movie. And I realize the reason that people hate it on it is because people say that it will never compare to the Kevin Bacon Footloose. It doesn't. And I get that. And I think it for the people that watched it thinking, like, oh my god, it's Kevin Footloose. It was people that were alive when the first Footloose came out and was like enthralled by that movie. And it was more of like a nostalgia watch for them when they're watching the second one. And it's just obviously it's not going to be exactly the same. It kind of takes place in a more present day society than it did in the '80s. So it's like my mom didn't like it as much as the original one. My mom didn't even hate it on it. But it's obviously because the original Footlooses, you're a nostalgia of the '80s. That's why you like it so much. There is something there, too, because it's like when I watch a movie that I grew up watching and then they remake it, Matilda, for example. Yeah. Wasn't a huge fan. Well, that one was just a really bad remake. Well, I wasn't a huge fan of Matilda in general. I have never liked that movie. My disdain for that movie is actually pretty well documented in people who know me. But the musical, I watched it, and I was like, this makes the original look like Godfather. It's so much better than this. And I think it is part of it is that you get a little bit like, well, that's my version of the movie. Why are you redoing my version, even if you don't like it? And so it is kind of hard to divorce yourself from being like, well, Kevin Bacon, Miles Teller. You know what I mean? It is difficult. You're acting like Miles Teller. Miles Teller is not the best. I know he's not the best. I know he's not the best character. But he's the reason we watched it. Let's be honest. We didn't watch it for the other guy. No, he's the reason I got you to watch it. I like the other two people also. It's like when we watch Magic Mike and you're like, Kevin Nash is in it. And I was like, what? Would you say no? Yeah, you wouldn't watch this movie. I'm down. This is how I get Carl to watch my girly movies with him. I mentioned one character who's in it, even if they're in it for like five minutes, that he likes. I have to mention too, why do we watch Stick It? Yeah. And I was like, we just randomly watching a movie one day back last February on that. I won't forget what time it was, because we just got into Virginia. And it was last February. And you were like, oh, let's watch Stick It. And I was like, you're going to make me pay-- One of my favorite movies for my childhood. Is it one of your favorite movies for my childhood? Yeah, I love that movie. Huh. Interesting. Wow. I also loved the TV show Make It Or Break It. I just really liked it. Oh, you just did gymnastics stuff? OK, yeah, I'm forgetting how old you were and that. I'm thinking about, yeah, OK, duh, that makes sense. But no, I remember being like, you're going to make me pay $3.99 to rent this shit. And I'm going to hate it. I love the movie. I thought it was great. And I was like, wow, I should. And there was nobody in that that I was like drawn to. And we just put it on. I was like, this ended up being fucking awesome. I loved it. Nowadays, we just switch off pics. So I don't really have a choice. But yeah, in the olden days, you'd be like, it's so and so. And I'm like, huh? Yeah, I'll watch it. Let's just give it a little look, give it a check out. Yeah, I also really love picking movies that I watched in my childhood that Kyle hasn't seen. Because I like introducing them to him. Just same as he likes to do to me. Like with Tropic Thunder and what was the other one? I don't remember. Oh, Rudolph. Oh, I'd see Rudolph. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, but that was kind of a rant. That was kind of a tangent. Wow. Totally gone. I'm talking about the footloose though. Maybe that's what we'll do next. No are actually footloose long legs. There's relation. Footloose and long legs. That's going to be our next one. It's going to be long legs. But I thought it'd be funny because you know, footloose long legs, you didn't laugh. That was great. Let's go ahead and jump into our what and why. Because holy shit. Why are you doing this to us? Because you were home. Yeah. So I picked Star Wars. Why? Because it's an insane thing to me. That Kyle has never seen the Star Wars movies. He calls himself a cinephile. But he hasn't seen one of the biggest movie series of all time Star Wars. Hasn't seen a single one. And I grew up and I must admit my brother and my dad huge Star Wars fans. Like we had like Star Wars was on all the time when I was a kid. And I must be honest, I never really sat down and focused and watched with them. So I was like, hmm, we'll give it a shot. I'll watch this one with Kyle and see if he wants to watch the rest. But that's why I picked it. Because one, I like to pick out movies that Kyle has never seen before because it's fun for me to introduce him to new things. And two, it's just appalling that he's never seen a single Star Wars movie in his entire 28 years. But what made you pick Star Wars like now? Because I've seen a lot of movies you probably enjoyed more than Star Wars. I don't know. I was trying to pick like a big iconic movie. And I think it's fun when we do like-- because I think one, when we do a big iconic movie, a lot more people are going to be interested in listening to the episode than like more of a niche movie. And I guess that's it. I don't know if I have it too. I just think when you pick a big name like this, like it's going to get people's attention. They're going to want to listen to it more than when we pick our kind of more-- when you pick your more niche movie. What niche movie about me? I don't remember. Snatching. All 12 people who watched that. But yeah, so that's pretty much why I picked it. Interesting. I remember you-- you were-- was the other movie. You said you were split between two. And you couldn't decide. And you're like, I'm deciding between I'm really stuck. And then you're just like, we're going to watch Star Wars. No, it was just either if we're going to start with the-- Oh, you're deciding between a new hope and episode one. Yeah, if we were going to do it like how the movies came out or like technically in like chronological order. Yeah, you decided on how the movies came out. I feel like, you know, with something like Star Wars, it's kind of the best way to do it. Because I haven't seen any of the other Star Wars. So I might be talking out in my ass when I say this. But I feel like the effects probably get a little better. And so it's easier to watch the older ones first and get yourself in that frame of mind. And then watch the newer ones where the effects are probably like not as outdated. So I think this is probably the best way to watch it, quite honestly. Yeah. Also, I do kind of understand they wanted to put us into the world now. What's going on with the world now? And then they'll go back and cover what led up to it. Yeah. Same thing with the book series that I'm reading right now. I was like, I just read the first two books. And then the third book, you went back before the first book even took place. And I actually really liked that. Because you kind of had a more relation to the more of an idea of who the character was now. Yeah. So yeah. So we decided to go that way. In that sense too, you get how the writer actually intended for it to be viewed. Right. Like George Lucas wrote this movie first for a reason. And made this movie first for a reason. The author made that book third for a reason in the series. And so I feel like you kind of have to honor the author's intentions. And be like, yeah, I'll read this in this order then. Because it's the order you wrote it in, the order you wanted us to digest it in. And so I kind of appreciate that we watched this one first. Well, I was going to say something. But I'll say that from my thoughts. Also, this one does introduce you to a majority of the most famous characters from the movie. Like everyone knows Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Chewbacca, Princess Leia. Like those are the characters that everyone knows. The ones that come before. We get to know these characters and you get to appreciate them. And then you know, yeah, I've Jar Jar Binks. I've heard awful things about Jar Jar Binks apparently. But I feel like you get used to these characters. You get to know them. And then you get to see them before the, like, before they, who they are, you know what I mean? And so you kind of have like a little bit of that. Like, oh, I can't wait to see how they, what they, how they got their start, you know. But let's go ahead and dive into it. Let's talk, let's talk about Star Wars. So there are two guys and they're on the horseback and they're looking for something. So maybe there's. No, no, where's the horizon? The horizon? Where is it? Yeah, it's at the bottom. That's right. Walk over to this painting. Well. Right, okay, so there are five cowboys, you know, no, no, no, no, where's the goddamn horizon? Um, it's, it's there. Where? At the top of the painting. All right, get over here. Now remember this. When there are horizons at the bottom, it's interesting. When there are horizons at the top, it's interesting. When there are horizons in the middle, it's boring as shit. I want to start with the positives first. I want to just jump right into the things I liked about this movie. And the first thing I have written down is this is so funny and family friendly and much less intense than I thought it was going to be. There are moments where it's pretty intense. I don't think it like isn't trying. I just think that there's so much humor and the way that Harrison Ford in particular just interacts with everybody is hilarious. And he's just so like, he's kind of like a slacker. And I liked that. He was just like, hey, he took offense when people were like, when they're like, oh, you call this a ship, it's a rust bucket. He takes offense to that. But he's also just like actually a slacker. And I think this is, especially comparing it to Dune, which is it's like direct partner, essentially. This is something that I feel like your kids could watch and not be scared or bored. Right. And I'm not saying that Dune is bad or boring. I'm saying that for like a 10 year old, I'm putting on Star Wars. Right. And I think that appeals to a massive, massive audience. I agree. It definitely appeals to a much larger age range than Dune does. Yeah. I would feel comfortable putting this on and like showing it to a child. And then also grasping what's going on a little better too. They're like, okay, these are the clear bad guys. This is the clear good guys they got to get from A to B on Dune. They have, it's all over the place. Right. And sure, a lot of people do die in the Star Wars movie, but like you never see any blood. There's no gore. Right. It's the people die, but it almost feels like you don't realize until the end. When I actually was reading a review, so many people died in this movie and you don't even realize it. Like it seems inconsequential because there's no blood in gore. You're like, eh, they're not, they're not actually dead. Right. It almost makes it acceptable in a way because you're not seeing anyone directly die. You just see a planet blow up in front of you. It's just like a rock. Right. But it is like, it's more people die in that movie than in the Dune movies. The two that we have so far, but yeah. I have a question for you. Again, we're still in the positives, but I don't think the acting is all that great. Yeah. But I think it works for the movie it is. At any point in time did the acting like break this for you? Or did it not impact it at all? I don't think it breaks the movie. I think it's you have to consider, I at least consider the time period. And I actually, while we're watching, I was like, gee, something like Luke is a really, really kind of bad actor. But then you don't know. Like maybe they asked them to kind of play the parts like that. Maybe that was kind of how they wanted the movie to feel. Yeah. The director's not going to let you give a performance that they're not like comfortable with. Right. So I feel like this is definitely something George Lucas wanted to have. Yeah. Because it is sort of like schlocky at times. And it is sort of like, they're, they feel loose and they feel like they're having fun for the most part. Yeah. When they're supposed to be having fun. Obviously they dial in when it's supposed to be tense. Like when they're being like crushed by a trash compactor, they start panicking. So I think that there's just like an energy that they bring that they're not so intense for the most part. So you don't feel so intense. Dude on the other hand, and I'm sorry to keep comparing this to do, but I'm gonna. It's gonna happen. But during the hand is so intense and nobody gets a break in that movie. And they're always on their a game and doesn't feel like they're having a lot of fun. Because they feel like the situations they're in are not fun. And you can kind of feel that whereas this is like we're just going on a space adventure. I must say you're, you comparing it to Dune is a little unfair. I mean, I have to. Dune was made in like 2020's. Everything about it is going to be different. The effects are better obviously because we have better effects nowadays. I feel like nowadays we have so many huge iconic movies that there's a higher standard for effects acting. All of that stuff. I think you're misunderstanding what I'm saying. Because the effects in this movie, it's the nice thing I want to talk about are incredible for the time period. Like I was blown away. And that leads me into something that I'm gonna ask you later. But this is a movie that I put myself in 1977. Of course not alive. That's not really possible for me to do. But when I try and I try to forget about everything that exists now. And compared to other movies I've seen from 1977, the effects would blow my mind. They're incredible. And I think they still hold up for the most part today. The only reason I'm comparing it to Dune is because when Star Wars came out Frank Herbert, the author of Dune literally said I'm going to try very hard not to sue people. Because Star Wars is very close to Dune. It's not a controversy. He said that. Like this is a known fact. It borrowed a lot of its elements. But that doesn't mean it's not good. And I'm just comparing them because they are literally twins in my opinion. And a lot of people's opinions. So I feel like they have to. But I'm not comparing their effects. That's unfair. I'm just saying like just the acting performance is wise. Star Wars feels a little more loosey. And a little more like a beat. Whereas Dune feels like really depressing. And like you're watching something like you're watching a civilization crumble. Not gain freedom. In Star Wars I feel like they were fighting for freedom. And in Dune it feels like I know I'm going to watch these people just fold. Yeah. Like they're going to. And I mean Chani even says that in the first movie. She's like, oh you're going to be the next one to impress us. You know? But I do want to give credit to Star Wars for keeping that tone. And the acting performance is I think it didn't break it for me at all. I thought it was fun. I think it added to the element of like excitement and entertainment. And that leads me into my next thing was effects because I was going to talk about the next. We watched the remastered version. So you have to be clear about that that their massive version they've definitely touched some things up. And I would love to have sat in the theater in 1977 and seen what it actually looked like. Even now I would have preferred not to see a remastered version. I would have preferred to see the actual version. We probably have it on DVD. On DVD for sure. But they also touched it up in like 1994. So like you got to find a VHS copy essentially from before 1994. Even then man. You can only do so much. And it still looks really good. It's really impressive. Especially given the time period it was made. Yeah. Like it looks fantastic. And absolute credit where credit is due for that. And doing obviously is light years ahead. And I'm not comparing them in that way. And I don't want people to think of comparing them in that way. Because effects is not something I would ever compare these to. And it's literally leagues apart from each other. But then the effects bothered you at all. Did you like them? Did you dislike them? Did you notice anything that you were like okay this is clearly just terrible like craftsmanship. What do you think? I don't think so because again I try to do it like as you do and be like wow they made this movie frickin almost 50 years ago. Which is insane if you think about it. My dad was 10 when this movie came out. His mind was probably blown. He was like Eric Foreman when this came out. His mind was probably shattered. No wonder he loves these movies. There's nostalgia movies for him. I think that's why my dad, my dad loves these movies. He used to try to get me to watch them all the time. And I was like I literally can't do it. But I think that's something for our parents generation that Dune will be for us. It's like we were there when it happened. And visually it blew their minds just like Dune every time I like think about watching that in the theaters. I'm like I really got to see that in theaters. And it's such a visual marvel. Yeah. And that's how our parents felt when Star Wars came out. You know what I mean? Like that was there Dune. Right. And so of course they're gonna love it. And no I think the explosion of the ships and this is pretty good. I think I'm glad you brought that up. Excellent. I literally were times just like oh shit. Like the lightsabers and the laser guns. I think all that was good. My complaint with the special effects would be when it comes to the creatures. Chewbacca is a little laughable. You can literally see the human eyes. You did point that out. I didn't catch that but you're like oh did you see his eyes? And I was like no. You can see the person's eyes. Yeah. And then Jabba the Hutt literally just looks like a big hunk of plastic. But I think that's part of the remastered thing that they did. And that's why I was a little upset. Because you could tell it looks better than what 1977 had to offer. But I would have preferred to see the shitty 1977 version. I want to see what you could do in 1977. Right. In 1994 or 2020 whenever they remastered it again. But I don't like the stormtroopers look great because I mean that is just a costume. All the humans look great. It's when you come to the other species. Oh see I like that. They don't look great too. So like the bar scene. Yeah. What do you think of the puppeteering in that? Like the creatures in that? Yeah. I don't love it. It looks like such fake fur and like yeah. Like literally Chewbacca's fur looks like wig hair. I get what you're saying for sure. I do. I do. I really don't have like anything to rebuttal that with. But I think that's half the fun is knowing that like a person made this with their bare hands. And like they used it on set. And it's just something fascinating about that. Like the time and commitment to have these people. There's so many people working on this one scene I bet. And I think that's astounding. But I mean obviously I agree that like you could tell these are not great looking creatures by today's standards. 77 though man. My mind would have probably fallen out of my ears. Right. I do love the robots. I love R2D2. Fantastic. Yeah. Those are great too. Yeah. I was shocked. I did not expect to like see cause R2D2 I was famous. See him everywhere. And so I was like yeah he looks great. But C3PO. I was mad impressed with C3PO. I really was. Was there anything else about the effects that you wanted to say? No. I did want to talk about how adorable it was when they met up with the people that were played by actual kids. The Jawas. The Jawas. I was watching them like walk around in that scene. And I was like I'm like these are definitely children. Like you could tell when they're like clumsily running and like swinging their big sleeves around. And like they're definitely children. And then Kyle looked it up and they are children. Some of them. Yes. They're played by children and some by little people. I hope that wasn't offensive. Then I started to try and pick out if I could tell who the children are the little people. Because I didn't notice until you said that and I was like oh now I'm going to look around more like more of the Jawas. Because one specific Jawas that was kind of in charge. And I was like watching that one. And you could tell that some of them are definitely like the way they're like bouncing up and down. Like wandering around. Yeah they're wandering around and like they're moving something. And one of them isn't even lifting anything. He's just like waddling around. Like okay that's definitely a child for sure. Hands down. But yeah I like that. I thought that was funny too. The Jawas like speak their own guttural language. And everyone like knows what they're saying. I was like this is odd. That's what I was. I didn't mention in that while we were watching this movie. I'm like I love how people like communicate to each other in different languages. But then they like speak back their own language. Yeah. Like it's not like when you're talking to someone in like Spanish. And like they talk Spanish. You talk Spanish. They talk Spanish. You talk Spanish. It was like I would like I would talk to you in English. And then you would talk to me in whatever their language is. But you know what I mean? Yeah. But I was like it is funny when they're like talking to someone who's talking to them to a different language. They just continue talking in their own language. So it's crazy to think that everyone can just understand. I kind of like that. Everyone else's language. I liked that because I was like it's just not taking itself so seriously. Yeah it's true. It's just it is what it is. You know they don't even try to explain it either. It is what it is. Right. Like there's no ear piece that they're wearing that can translate all the languages. They're just just roll with it. I actually I found that like endearing. I really did. Was there anything else you had to say that was positive? The spaceships are also really really cool. Yeah. Like the Death Star and I mean the Millennium Falcon. You've got it. Like that's they're just like super super good for the time period. I think they look great. Yeah. I agree. I couldn't tell like I honestly didn't know which one was the Millennium Falcon. Until like the end of the movie essentially though. I missed that somehow. I don't know if it's cause like taking a note or something. But I was like which one is it. And then he comes back at the end of the movie and I was like oh word. Okay. That's the one. I missed it somehow. It's Han Solo ship. No I know. I'm saying I didn't know what it looked like. And so when it came back at the end of the movie I was like oh there it is. Okay. And I was like did I miss like the design of this thing? Was I taking notes? What did I sneeze in? Like I was so confused. And then Han Solo comes back at the end. You were too busy talking about how you didn't like how Han Solo said uh Falcon. Oh he said Falcon. Falcon. And I was like alright get out of here. Get out of here Harrison. But I'm ready to move over to the negatives if you are. Yeah. Give him to me. The fuck is up with these transitions. It was disgusting. They cheapened the entire movie. Like a toddler figured out how to finally get like slide show transitions to show up. And they just like kept using that. I hated it. Yeah. I hated it. It is an interesting choice instead of just like literally just like fade to black and then like lighten somewhere else. Like why don't they do why did they just do that? I actually so there's one scene that did kind of bother me with that. Luke was walking into the house and then they fade to black and then they fade back in. And he's like going down this like thing with C3PO and they're like fixing R2D2 right after. And I was like you could have just cut to them coming down the stairs. I guess like you didn't have to. I don't know the fade to black thing was just weird. Yeah. There's a few moments. I was like you don't have to fade here. That's an odd decision. And I know it's a nitpicky thing but like it stands out. Like you notice it. And there are moments where it kind of works and I'm like I don't mind this. But for the majority of it I was like I hate the way the screen just like swipes over to the droids now. And then we like roll up and out. And I'm like what the fuck are we doing? I understand them wanting doing that though because I remember making my slideshows in school and being like what transition can I do here? I want to know if there's like a new technology. Like you said like a kid in high school who jiggered middle school like just figures out how to make them work. So you just use a bunch of them. And I want to know if there's like a new technology. Slide needs a different transition. Yeah dude it was brutal. Anything is supposed to be smooth and subtle and this was anything fun. And it just threw me out of the... I was like what are we doing? I was like I'm begging you to stop. And I thought maybe. I was like maybe he came to his senses about halfway through. And he stopped. And he didn't. He doubled down on it. And everything was like I just didn't like it at all. Did you care at all? I didn't really notice it as much as you did. Yeah it bugged the shit out of me man. The next thing I had that I want to complain about is for a two hour movie things move really quickly. And what bothers me a little bit about that and I'm not a Star Wars guy. I have no idea about the force. I don't know what the fuck's going on with that. And maybe some people can learn it faster than others. I don't know. But Luke is told about the force and then like 30 minutes later he is essentially like got it down. He's like I understand how to use it. He doesn't have it down. He's got the shield over his face and immediately like after two tries he's like boom boom boom. I got that. And then they stop. I was like it just happens way too fast. And then coming up with the plan to blow up the Death Star also happens way. They steal the pieces. Whatever. And they steal the schematics. The plans. Whatever. And they just like get it back to the general or whoever it was. I can't remember who got the schematics. They're like there's this two meter hole here. We're going to blow that shit up. And I was like we didn't even see you look at them. You just like cut to hey we're going to blow it up now. And I was like I just I understand it's trying to keep good pace and it has a fantastic pace. That is something I will praise it for is the pacing is excellent. It's just like doing part two. Like it's a two hour movie that feels like an hour and a half. Which is what you want. And I applaud I applaud that. But there were moments and this isn't a picky where I was like this is happening. Things are coming together too quickly. Yeah I think it's because they had to do so much world building. And so much of like storytelling in a short amount of time. They real deal did. So I was I'm glad you brought that up because I was going to say that. They almost bit off more than they could chew. They do it nicely. They do handle it nicely. There's only a few moments I was like okay we're just glazing over that. But they do have to a lot of world building and a lot of work to get you to the even the plot of the movie. You've got to set up who Luke is. Who Obi-Wan is. Who C3PO is. Who Princess Leia is. Who Darth Vader is. You have to do that all before the droids ever get bought by Luke's uncle. You know what I mean. And then you find out who Luke is. And then you got to get his shit. And then you get Han Solo shit added on top of that. It's like there's a lot happening and you have so much to cover. And I think it does it at a very good pace. It's just that a few moments where I was like you literally spent 30 seconds on him like blocking shots from that sphere. And then you give him a shield to cover his eyes and 30 seconds later he's got that down pat. And then he really gets to use the force at the end of the movie which is fine. I think that's a good progression. I just wish we had seen him struggle a little bit more in those scenes or made the scenes just a little bit longer. Or even have more of those scenes put in there where he's trying to use the force. Yeah. But it just, and it picky thing, but it did just kind of bother me. I didn't feel that way at all or do you care. So I honestly think you could take it as part of like the story is like when Obi-Wan dies he, I think he's passing his grasp on the force. To Luke. Because he literally looks at him and then just lets Darth Vader kill him. Because he thinks he's gonna, he's more powerful dead. And I think it's because he gives his grasp of the force to Luke. So then when Luke is in the flying the spaceship after to destroy the Death Star. I think the reason he's able to use so much more of the force is because when Obi-Wan died. He passed it along to Luke. I think it also could just, that is definitely an option. I think it also serves as like a motivator for Luke too. But then you do hear Obi-Wan's voice. And I was like, okay so he's clearly not like dead dead. So I don't know. He's in the force now. He's part of the force. Sure, is that a thing that actually happened? Oh okay, is that a thing that really happens? Because like I genuinely don't know. What's sad is like I literally my dad and brother own all these movies and have watched all these movie multiple times. And I don't even remember which direction the story goes in. So it's like watching for the first time for me too. See that's fun. You got the basic gist of what's going to happen. You just don't remember all the pieces. I like that. I remember the blink, the blink, the blink, the blink. The big plot points. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you have any other negatives you want to bring up? No. The one thing I did notice is like Darth Vader's voice is a lot different than I remember it being. I think it's just James Earl Jones growing. Maybe just growing. Yeah, I wonder if he one grows older and for the voice changes or if he decided to start voicing Darth Vader a little differently. Maybe. Because the whole his voice just sounds like in my memory it was a lot like deeper and like raspier. Actually from what I like just the clips you see on like TikTok and like just in general. I always thought his voice was deeper too, but I mean that could also be a different movie. I thought there actually this is going to lead into my next thing that I want to talk about. But I thought a lot more was going to happen in this movie than I actually did. Yeah, you have. I wrote him down. Yeah. Many, many more. I thought every single character was introduced in this movie. So I thought everything major that happened in this movie or happened happened in this movie. So there are a few things that I was surprised about and if you'll allow me I'd like to say a few of them. The first one is no Leia in the bikini scene. Shocked by that. Yeah. So does she get captured again? Yeah. And it's by Jabba the Hutt who captures her. Yeah. I was waiting the whole time. I was like when do we see the golden bikini thing that everyone freaks out about? And just never happened. And I was like this is Star Wars? Are we watching the right thing? I was so confused. Another thing. No Yoda. Seven more movies. No, but I thought that all of this happened in the first one. No Yoda. Yes. Yoda is like the only Star Wars character I know besides Darth Vader. And in charge of Binks for some reason. But he's not even in this shit. No. The fuck is that about? What does he show up? I couldn't tell you. I figured he was the main character. I thought he was Luke's like main manial. No, Luke finds him at some point. Wild. Yeah. And then he walks. Yes. The little bear creature thing. Yes. I have seen the family guy spoof. I know there's Ewoks. And there was not a single Ewoks. It was very interesting. Star Wars. Yeah. There was no Ewoks. That was weird. Another thing that I noticed was no I am your father. No. I thought that happened in this too. I thought him and Darth Vader were going to like collide in this. And he's going to say no. I am your father. I was like kept waiting. I remember I kept checking the time. I was like how are they going to wrap this shit up and do all that in 19 minutes? I was like something's wrong. Well because I just like those are such iconic moments to me. And they don't even happen in the first movie. No. Like this just blows my mind. It really does. There was one other one. I didn't write it down. I was like I'm going to remember it. And I obviously did not remember it because I would never remember anything like that. But if it comes to me I'll let you know. But there was a lot of moments where I was just like what's when does so and so show up? When does Yoda get here? When do we see the bikini? When do they fight those? That's what it was. The giant creatures that Luke's got to fight. And they're like in a pit somewhere. And he's got to fight these giant ass creatures. I was like when does he fight the giant monster things? That never happens. I'm starting to think I hallucinated all of this shit. Like starting to make myself feel crazy. Gaslighting myself into thinking they're real and they're not. It's very confusing. So I am eager like to watch more of these. Mainly so I can get to those points where I can be like oh it's the thing. They did the thing. You know. That's what I can't wait for. Another random ass thing that I would like to point out is I've never seen more incompetent. Anything. As stormtroopers. Yeah. These motherfuckers can't do anything. They couldn't hit the broad side of a fucking barn with one of those laser guns. It was infuriating. Very sad excuse for an army. Or warriors. Or guards. Or whatever you want to call them. Troopers. Yeah. Stormtroopers. But yeah. They are just like stupid and mindless. Which I guess you have to be a little bit mindless to side with Darth Vader. But. Right. It was embarrassing. It worked by like three dudes, a bear and a prisoner. Like what's going on? This whole space station is getting worked over by these people. Literally. And it was, they were so inept that it made me, I was like they're actually just stupid. Like they just don't know what they're doing. And so I was like these, that's another reason that I kind of like felt there was no real threat. So I was like these people haven't proven themselves a worthy challenge. Well don't Vader's the threat. That's one guy. The whole fucking fleet is right there and they couldn't stop five people. Five fucking people in two robots. And they're like sneaking past them. They're not even sneaking. Obi-Wan is just openly walking down the hallway and Stormtroopers are walking by him. In one specific scene, Obi-Wan is turning off these like reactor things. They can turn off the gate and fly their fucking millennium falcon out of the back of the ship. And these motherfuckers walk in. One of them says do you hear that? And he goes no it's fine. Hey did you see the new TRS 16? And he's like yeah I did see that was crazy. And Obi-Wan's standing five feet away from them. It just, it was frustrating. And I was like this, this is how we're going to wrap this up. It's like everything's going to go on without a hitch. And even when they did catch them, they couldn't do anything. And I think there's no threat here at all. I was not concerned. So I don't think it was as intense because of that. Yeah. Because they're just not intelligent or formidable foes. It was really awful. Yeah I 100% agree. The Stormtroopers were, and I think like when I was, washes when I was younger, I didn't really notice. Like that from it obviously. But watching as an adult you're like man these guys are gullible. And they're shooting their gun and it's like, they're not even coming close to hitting these dudes standing in the open. You're like do you guys have any training whatsoever? Right. They just found people on the street. They're like here's a gun. Good luck. That's what it looks like. Put this on. Here's this. Come on. Like they don't need to be good forces. We just have to need to have a lot of them. Yeah. They just like our numbers will outweigh the skill. No dude when they're breaking in to get Leia and Harrison for Han Solo and Luke are like and chewy. Like shooting off that like guard station. Bro they're not even, there's no cover. And these people are standing 10 feet away from them and they can't hit them. I was just like the ultimate bad guys have terrible aim trope. And I was like, it's pissing me off a little bit. And even like even Luke like there is a point where they're like shooting back at all the stormtroopers and not hitting a single one. And then he's like oh shoot out the door panel. And it's like he hits it per shot. Like you can hit that. That's behind the stormtroopers you're shooting at. First try. And literally like a six by six inch box. Right. But you can't hit the stormtroopers standing in front of it. Right. It just, it was a lot. It was a lot. Like I've never been more frustrated in my life. Like just, I didn't want them to get hit. I didn't want anything to happen to them. But I was also like I want to see a stormtrooper hit anything. Hit a living thing. Please. How did you all escape unscathed it? When you had thousands of shots. I mean odds. Odds are. Right. The amount of shots are you guys. Someone would get hit. Right. Odds are. You'd hit at least one living thing. Even if they were just blasting into the like middle of nowhere. Someone's getting hit. I shut. Yes. Just pulling trade. You'd fucking at least hate something. And they, they don't touch anything. And that's what drove me nuts. I have one last thing to ask you. If you could go back in time to see any movie. On the, in the year premiere what movie would it be? Hmm. Can it be one that I actually did see in theaters when it premiered? And I just want to go back to experience it again. Sure. Yeah. Breaking Dawn. Part two. Really? Yeah. Is it because the girlies were upset and you knew how it was going to end. And everyone's sitting in your seat. Oh, you didn't read it? I did read it. The book does not, is not the same as the movie. Really? No. I did not know that. I had read all the books. The movie steers way away from what happens to the book. Really? I had no idea. Yes. So you just want to go back and experience that again without the knowledge of what's going to happen. The full, utter shock of being like, there's sobbing. Yeah. I was sobbing in the movie theater being like, okay, kill Carlisle. No way. And then, oh my God. And yeah, it was like an emotional roller coaster. I would love to go back to experience that again. That's awesome. I remember when we watched it for the first time when I didn't react to that scene. And I was like, just to see they're killing them. Yeah. And I was like, I've unfortunately seen this part of the movie. Because I remember I'd seen one part of one movie. And I could not tell you what it was. And then we got there. And I was like, oh, I've seen that. Kyle, they're killing everyone. You were crushed. You were like, why did we just watch all these? If you've seen the ending and I was like, I didn't know it was the ending. I had no idea. I was literally gobsmacked. Yeah. Because I'm like, they kill Carlisle. They kill all the favorite characters. Leah. They kill Edward. They kill. Like everyone. They're just killing everyone. And I'm just like, I can't believe they're doing this in this movie theater right now. This did not happen in the book. I am angry. Describe the relief to me though when you find out none of it happened. Oh my God. I think I don't even remember watching in the theater except for how upset I was. But yeah, I just can't only imagine everyone. Like the entire theater being like, oh thank God. Yeah. Like the sigh of relief in everybody when they end the actual movie and nothing happened. Yeah. Yeah. I bet it was insane. I have three. So do you have any more? No. So we can go back and forth here. Okay. The first one is honest with Star Wars. Yeah. I would love to go back in time and sit in the theater with like our parents as kids. And watch this movie through their eyes because I mean it probably melts out their brain. They're probably like, is this real? Like did this actually happen? Another one for me is my favorite movie all time in the shining. Yeah. I would love to go back. And they play that in theaters occasionally. But I've never seen it in a theater and I think that would be life altering for me just because I love that movie so much. And seeing it on that giant ass screen and hearing that score over those speakers would be incredible. Mm hmm. And the last one, Jurassic Park. Oh. Seeing that on a big screen would be incredible because that movie like I was younger. I thought that movie was like a documentary. That really happened because it looks so convincing and so real. I was like, we're just letting these dinosaurs free and nobody's going to stop this when we should be out there fighting them. Yeah. And my mom had to be like, it's not real, man. It's not real. And I was like, you can't convince me. It's not. I know it is. I mean, that's just, I mean, you know, when I was like five when I saw this movie, I was like the effects blew my mind. And so I think watching this on the big screen in 1993 when it came out would actually just like blow my head up. Like I don't think little me could like comprehend when I'm watching. Right. So those would be my three. Mm hmm. Any others for you? No. Okay. Let's rate this and get out of here. So how's your movie? It should. The giant swing of mediocrity. Well, the girl seems nice. She is. And she has no idea it'll end like all the way. So I feel like honestly this movie needs to get two scores. Yeah. One, when I would rate it now compared to all the movies that have come out after it. And two, trying to forget all the movies that come after it and rate it what I would have rated it back then. Okay. Interesting. If I was seeing it with like fresh eyes that like all these movies with the better special effects don't exist. Yeah. All of that stuff. So, rating it back in the day where this movie just came out, there's been no special effects like this before. No doing, doing part two. I give it four stars. Mm-hmm. Four star wars. Nice. Nice. You did that. Nice. You did that. Now a date. It still is pretty good. It still rates pretty good for me, but I think I would give it like a three, three and a half star wars. Mm. Just a slight doc. Just a slight doc. Just, and it's honestly just because as good as the special effects were for the time period, they don't hold up today. Yeah. And then acting is kind of a little bit goofy. That's fair. But, that is fine. I'm going to echo your statement and give this four star wars. I was actually genuinely shocked by how much fun this was, and I know people like it, and I know people consider it great. So like, I just wasn't expecting it to be as fun as it was. Dune and Dune Part 2 are good movies. I would not say they're fun to watch. I would say they're entertaining, and they are intense. Star Wars is fun. It is a fun, more fun movie. It's just a fun movie. And even with all the threats that they have, you never feel unsafe, I guess. Whereas in Dune, it's just everything feels like it's about to fall. Yeah. All the dominoes are about to fall. And so I feel like there's a less tense viewing, and I think that adds to the fun. And so I'm going to give this four, which is exactly what I give the original Dune. So, or not the original Dune, but the Dune Timothy Chalamet. So, I think they're pretty honorable. Yeah. Four star wars. Who's your MVP? My MVP is Han Solo. Me too. Yeah. Don't even have to explain that. Literally Han Solo. His acting is just honestly just better than everyone else's, and he is hilarious. He's just a chill. He's just a chill. He's a chill. Do you know what the letterbox community gives this movie? I don't know what it gives it. I did look up some letterbox reviews, but I was able to scroll past the, um, score. So I actually look at it, but I'm assuming this has to have like a four four. Four point two. Four point two. I'll take it. Yeah, so I, people, I'm kind of shocked it's actually a four two. Like, cause it's higher than you think it'd be? No, I thought it'd be four four. I thought it'd be a little higher. Yeah. Honestly, every single review that I have to share today is four and a half stars and a pub. Yeah, that makes sense. So, um, I honestly saw maybe like a handful that were under four stars. You're not going to see a lot of like bad reviews at the top of a movie like this, right? Um, but do you want to get into some? Yeah, let's do it. So, first I have a five star review. From River. And they say the power point transitions never get old. Hey, let's go. So clearly River does appreciate the power point transitions. Gave us five stars. Yeah, I think they do get old butt head. He's their own. Then we have a five star review from Bunny that goes with our sentiments for the MVP being Han Solo. Okay, sweet. Um, Han Solo. I love you, bitch. I never gonna stop loving you, bitch. I love that video so much. Uh, Han Solo is just the film man. Yeah, he's in that scene where he's like, he notices that Luke starts to have a crush on Leia. He's like, what do you think of princess and a guy like me? And he's like, no, no. And I was like, that's such an older brother dick move. I love it. I love it. Um, next we have a four and a half star review from Matt Singer. And he said a sampling of questions from my four year old during her first viewing of Star Wars. So clearly you can show that this is PG enough to show to your four year old. Yeah. Um, why does see through appeal walk like that? Is that Earth? Why are the jaw is so small? Is open on a good guy? What are they looking for? Is that Earth? What's a tractor beam? Clearly she loved it. I actually have the same questions honestly. That's awesome. Um, and then we have a five star review from Leah. Um, and she said, Jesus Christ, this is good. I'm not sure why I waited 23 years, try 28 to watch this, but it's totally worked. Oh my God. I am so happy for no apparent reason. And also, can somebody help Darth Vader with his breathing issue? After watching this, I was like, why, the reason I was so hesitant was because by the time I came to like conscious being of Star Wars, there were so many. Yeah. And I was like, I just can't keep up. And there were TV shows and there were books. And I'm a guy who like is a completionist and I'm barking down this road is a long journey for me because I'm not able to stop now. And so that's why I'm putting it off. And when you picked it, I couldn't veto it. So I was like, reduce Star Wars. I guess I'm being forced to like really kick this off. Yeah. So I get the whole like, not sure why I waited, but like that's the reason I had. But now that I've started, I'm excited to actually keep going. Right. I do feel like Carl sometimes like if he hasn't seen it, if he hasn't seen a movie that is incredibly famous and iconic, he often continues to not watch the movie, surely on premise. It's just like people wonder, I think it's crazy. I haven't watched this movie. I'm not going to watch it. Or it's like the whole, he's just being defiant and being like, oh, I should probably watch this movie. That was high school. High school, we did that as soon as I haven't seen Pulp Fiction. I had a friend in high school who was like, all upset, I hadn't seen Pulp Fiction. And I was like, and I'm not done it. And I still to this day, I have not watched it because I was like, I can't now because you want me to jokes on me though because it's a great movie that I still have not seen because I'm like, I have to hold to that. Then, to finish it off, we have a five-star review from George Carney. And he said, I can't even imagine what it felt like watching this in theaters for the first time in 1977. Being collectively consumed by this monumental space epic, it had to have been the coolest experience. A brand new special effects Wonderland to lose yourself in. I've had some pretty amazing theater experiences, but I don't know if anything will ever come close to the impact a new hope had on that entire generation. Perfectly sums it up. Perfectly sums up this podcast I feel like. It's a great place to stop right there. That was awesome. Thank you for freaking this movie. You're welcome. I had a great time. I was unaware of the fun that I was missing because a lot of Star Wars fans make it seem like it's not fun sometimes. And this was just a fun, easy watch, even for two hours is easy. And thank you, dear listener, for listening to us talk about this for over an hour. I appreciate you guys. Dear gentle listener, thank you. Yeah, vote in our Spotify poll. That'll be down there. My socials will probably be down there. Depends on how late it, honestly, is by the time I finish editing this. Because the later it is, the less likely I am to put my social links down there because I'm so tired. Make sure you rate us. You share us. Please, please, please, please. It helps us a ton. And thank you so much for listening. And with that, go watch a fucking movie. Data porn. Data sprains out. Just wondering, you know, after this movie, if I don't go to print it, you know, they're not busy, man. We can go to a piece somewhere. Pick up on Friday. Oh, right. Writing. Uh-huh. So... Do you want to do something to me? What a wonderful day! [BLANK_AUDIO]
