    From The DR and Lynch Speakeasy:

    In this final episode of the Star Wars saga we have the taste of victory in our mouths and can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Join us for a little over two hours as we discuss the inconsistent stances of Stormtroopers whilst receiving the Emperor, the pointlessly elaborate rescue plan that must have been formulated to rescue Han, and why Luke Skywalker must clearly have been lying when he told everyone he was a Jedi.

    Take note of the extremely inconsistent stance that the stormtroopers are taking in the background. … Wide stance. Closed stance. Wide stance. … Feet absolutely, completely together; that guy’s done ballet. — Speakeasy,

    Mark Hamill’s hair in this one. Do you like it? Nnnno. … What’s your favorite Mark Hamill hairstyle? Aren’t they all identical? … Answer my question. … The one that he had in Slipstream. — Speakeasy,

    The thing that annoys me about this scene is Alec Guinness? He just does such a terrible Ewan McGregor impression. [laughter] He sounds just not a thing like him. — Speakeasy,

    Apparently, they went with ewoks and not wookies for budgetary reasons. … The only thing that I can possibly conclude … is just simply the cost of fur. … Maybe little people don’t cost as much. … It’s pro rata based on height. — Speakeasy,

    Ewoks are absolutely incredibly accomplished dress-makers. And in the last couple of hours, they’ve managed to whip up a dress for Leia. And do her hair. — Speakeasy,

    This is probably the only time … where C-3P0 actually gets to do something slightly useful. … You could pretty much replace him with just a very, very tiny voice synthesizer that you plug into the R2 unit. — Speakeasy,

    So this is also Naboo. How do they know it’s all over? Uh, um… text messaging. — Speakeasy,
