Watching Episode VI with K.M. Hirosaki and Friends
12 years ago
Hey everyone!
Listen to your intrepid otter podcast host and some of his friends (mainly, a room full of otters) sit down on mic and talk Star Wars while watching it--and you all at home get to watch along!
This is a sort of "fan commentary" track, with different guests and people stopping by to contribute to the discussion. In the vein of Rifftrax, the idea is that the audio file is synched up with a copy of the movie, so that you're hearing us talking at the right points in the movie. Massive thanks go to
buckhopper for his studio time, editing time, all-around awesomeness, and Chinese restaurant recommendations.
Our featured film this time around is Episode VI - Return of the Jedi! And you get to hear us go into it while still kinda drunk from our time sitting through Episode I (which will be posted soon, in all its alcohol-fueled glory). Good times all around!

*We used the 2004 DVD version, but any other version of the movie (including Blu-Ray) should work fine. Since we're not riffing on the movie line-by-line, a few seconds different won't really impact what you're hearing.

Out of curiosity, what's your take on Disney having bought the franchise? Think they'll do it justice?
The long answer can be found in the first few minutes of this recording.
I agree that Disney can only take the quality of the Star Wars franchise upwards, especially in the scripting/directing department. That said, a rumor had me worried. Some of the execs at Disney want to "bring back Vader" because of his "iconic status." and not as a ghost. I seriously hope that was just kibitzing in the boardroom and they aren't going through with that. The original trilogy had a proper redeeming ending to Vader's arc, even if the prequels dampened the weight of Anakins past...
