I have a message from the Village Jedi. Max Rebo, hit it. Happy Monday, everybody. This is a Star Wars point of view brought to you by the local village Jedi. My name is Marina, and if you're new here, welcome. And if you're not, welcome back. Happy May the 4th. I hope your festivities are wonderful. Joining me today is someone I would happily leave the Jedi order for, my husband, Mr. Jedi Master Grant. How are you?
SPEAKER_00I'm good. How are you?
SPEAKER_02I'm fantastic. How does it feel to be in our office recording a podcast with your your wife?
SPEAKER_00Not gonna lie, it feels like home.
SPEAKER_02Really?
SPEAKER_00Yeah.
SPEAKER_02Wow, how shocking. So today is if you guys haven't watched it yet, that's okay. Um, I can't watch the show that the like day of. Sometimes I have to watch it at night or the next day, but it is actually the mall finale debuting today, May the 4th. We haven't watched it yet, so this episode is gonna come out in the future. We're speaking to our future selves. So, Grant, is there anything you would want to say to your future self who's gonna watch the mall finale?
SPEAKER_00No.
SPEAKER_02Really? Nothing.
SPEAKER_00Like what?
SPEAKER_02Like I would tell my future self, enjoy it, because this show has just been fantastic and I hope that it lives up to the hype.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, okay. Yeah. I think that goes without saying.
SPEAKER_02Okay, fine, duh.
SPEAKER_00It's it's it's gonna be awesome, and I can't wait.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, so you've really liked the show so far?
SPEAKER_00Yes.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, it's something we've both been really enjoying. Um, but that is not what we're gonna be talking about today. I'm gonna be going over the mall episodes finale on Friday, but this is just a bonus May the 4th episode for you guys. Audio only. Um, so we're not gonna be on the YouTube channel this week, but we will be on Friday. So today, Monday, we're just gonna be doing a little bit of Star Wars trivia, see where that takes us. But before we dive into the discussion, as you know, a way to kind of get involved with the future episodes, you can follow me on Instagram or TikTok at the Village Jedi, or feel free to send in an email to be read at a future episode to TVpod at gmail.com. So I have been loving getting those and I'm looking forward to recording an episode for you guys again on Friday. But today we're gonna be doing trivia. So no ad break today. We're just gonna jump straight into it. Um, I found these three online, and I am not really sure. I I try to not pick ones that are too easy. How do you feel about trivia? Like if you did a Star Wars trivia night at a bar, how do you think you would do?
SPEAKER_00Um really bad.
SPEAKER_02Really?
SPEAKER_00Yes. Well, I think normally Star Wars trivia I could get.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00But I saw a video on Instagram of like what was supposed to be relatively easy, like Star Wars nerd questions, and I apparently am not that knowledgeable.
SPEAKER_02I feel like since you're also the first host on the show and you're my husband, um, you should give the listener a little play-by-play into how you even got involved in Star Wars, like what fantastic person introduced you to it, how are you enjoying it, like on your own or with that person? Like, how does that journey look like for you?
SPEAKER_00Well, that's definitely a leading question. Um, but uh yeah, no, I I liked the movies um until uh we were dating, and then uh little birdie told me to try watching the Clone Wars. So over the next few months I watched all the Clone Wars, and then after we were married, we binged all the rebels. So in a matter of like less than a year, I was all caught up.
SPEAKER_02Yes, sir.
SPEAKER_00Um, and then I think that was right around the time we got married, season seven of Clone Wars came out.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Which makes me feel really old now. Um and uh yeah, we just have been keeping up with everything, and um I'm not a book reader, Star Wars book reader, or really any fantasy book. Um, so unfortunately I'm a little behind on some of the lore and I I c I can appreciate it, but I'm I feel like you do really good though.
SPEAKER_02Like when we watch the shows together, you find stuff that I missed out on when I'm going to make my notes for the podcast. You have little tidbits like, oh, like you should say this in your show. Like I don't know. I would I would say we're on basically the same level, which is kind of fun.
SPEAKER_00I care about it. Um, you know, I don't I don't I wouldn't say I w I watch it um as casually as a lot of people do. Right. Um I I do try and pay attention because I know that something that I appreciate about Star Wars is the um completeness of the storytelling. Um just that it if there's something that doesn't sit right with you, for example, the sequels, there's things that just don't make sense, eventually it's going to j to gel. Right. Um and so the continuity across Star Wars I really enjoy. And so when I see little things, um Easter eggs, things like that, you can tell that there's a lot of thought going into it, and Maul is a prime example of that, just the uh the detail that's going into the show so that not only can casual fans enjoy it without any background, um, but there's those nice little points for us to to enjoy, and you don't have to have a deep knowledge for that.
SPEAKER_02How are you feeling about the Mandalorian and Grogu movie coming out? We have our tickets secured for that. We're gonna see that I think the day after it comes out. I'm pretty excited. I've talked about it a little bit. Um how are you feeling about it?
SPEAKER_00I hope it's good. Yeah. I'm nervous. Yeah. Um it's just I think I wouldn't be so nervous if it wasn't called the Mandalorian and Grogu. That scares me. Um that we're still writing the, you know, the child wave and um, you know, the the mom coffee mugs and pillows and that we saw kind of when it came out and got the traction. Now it feels like we're kind of getting back on that bandwagon. We've fallen victim to the toys at Walmart that are just absolutely junk. Um and Book of Boba had me s has me scared. Book of Boba put a little sour taste in my mouth of kind of I guess fan servicey sloppy fan service. Gotcha. I just I'm just worried that the the brilliancy of some of the decisions that have been made in Mandalorian might get lost by trying to make like a cash grab. I guess. I don't know. I yeah, I just don't want them to water down the excellent Star Wars story that could be told.
SPEAKER_02I can see that. Well, did you see? I I'm sure I told you, but um, there's a lot of discourse about specifically the title name. I wanted the name of the show to be This Is the Way. And I think even just a small change like that would draw fans like us and other fans who have watched the movies, have watched the shows, do know Star Wars drawing them to this film instead of feeling like, hey, we need to share this space with people who have no idea what's going on and they're just here for baby Yoda.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. And I I I am afraid that there's going to be some of that, but I'm hopeful.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00I think that um in the last season of Mandaloren, we we really saw some things kind of opened up. Um, the I guess the prophecy of the Mandalore, uh, and just some potential for some really creative storytelling. And I just hope we don't get lost in um little fun adventures um and things like that that could be in a another kid's cartoon or something like that. But I don't know. I also appreciate that Star Wars is for kids and for families, and so I'm sure that whatever it is, we will uh be able to enjoy it at Star Wars Fest.
SPEAKER_02It'll be a good time, if anything. Like I'm I'm planning on dressing up, obviously, and then just how fun it is that we're gonna get to watch a Star Wars movie in theaters together. The last time we did that was 2019, we were still dating.
SPEAKER_00Uh, we saw Revenge of the Sith.
SPEAKER_02Oh, that's the rescreen last year. That was really fun. So that's what I mean. Like getting dressed up, being surrounded by fans, you're taking pictures with the poster. If it ends up not being a great movie, which I doubt, at least the experience is gonna be memorable and fun, and something that we'll get to do with fellow fans, which is gonna be great.
SPEAKER_00Well, and the thing I love about Star Wars is there's always something. I mean, unless you're just a a D1 hater, there's always something to enjoy. Even even Book of Boba, which I I um, you know, there's things that are just glaring in my mind. The speeder bike chase. I just I can't stand it. Even the thought that they decided to put that in, it just it just hurts me.
SPEAKER_02Right.
SPEAKER_00But the Sand People arc, Tuscan arc is just music, is absolutely brilliant.
SPEAKER_02A lot of the costumes.
SPEAKER_00I love some of the things that were done. So even if Mandalore or the Mandalorian and Grogu is is 90%, you know, fan service, there's all there's going to be something that is I'm just I'm excited for whatever it is. I know it's gonna be good.
SPEAKER_02Yeah. I can get behind that. Okay, so do you want to go ahead and dive into this then, unless there's anything else you feel like you need to say while I while I got you here tied to the chair. Um I will accept compliments.
SPEAKER_00I like the new office. I like the new setup that I painted for you.
SPEAKER_02Yes, you did a great job.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, yeah. Just not to pat myself on the back uh too much, but uh no, nothing I can nothing I can think of.
SPEAKER_02I think uh who's who's your favorite character? Just a little tidbit so we know about your Star Wars journey, you as a fan. Who's your favorite character? I haven't asked you this in a while.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. You had to put me on the spot.
SPEAKER_02I know. You one one of the things I will say while he's thinking, guys, Grant absolutely loved anything that had to do with the clones in Clone Wars, Bad Batch. He is a huge fan of emotionally complex characters, especially unexpected ones. So, like the clone 99 arc, the clone cadets arc, everything that had to do with fives, everything that has to do with Rex and Echo in the Bad Batch, when we saw Commander Cody talking to Crosshair, like Grant is all for those kinds of characters, and that is fun too, especially when you have an amazing voice actor like Dee Bradley Baker. I think he's gonna be at the Star Wars celebration in 2027. We're thinking about going. That's gonna be an LA tickets go on sale, I think, on May 6th. So keep that in mind if you're planning on going. Um but that's kind of the arcs that we gravitate toward most of the time when we watch Clone Wars together. He does like those characters. So it would be cool if we got to meet Dee Bradley Baker.
SPEAKER_00Yes, absolutely, a legend. Um, I guess when it comes down to who my favorite is, obviously, Clone Wars era is certainly I am very appreciative of how much Clone Wars era content we get, just because it really resonates with our generation. Um but I think my favorite Star Wars character would probably be Ezra Bridger.
SPEAKER_02Wow, Job of the Hutt himself.
SPEAKER_00Job of the Hut. Um I really do enjoy the depth to um his use of the force.
SPEAKER_02That is a good character.
SPEAKER_00Everything that he does with the Sith Holocron, how he I think he is a very balanced Jedi. I think that he um he kind of reminds me of uh of Qui-Gon a little bit, just kind of that rebellious, like but obviously without the formal training. I don't know.
SPEAKER_02Just just He's a fun character.
SPEAKER_00He was be beginning to become so powerful. I something that just another thing, uh as a Star Wars fan, you gotta hate on Star Wars also at simultaneously. I just wish that we would have seen, and you never know what's coming in the future. True, but I wish we could have seen a better representation of how cool his character is in Ahsoka. Yeah. I feel like when we get to Ahsoka, he's like this hippie bum.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00And no offense to anyone who, you know, likes the hippie bum lifestyle, but it rebels, Ezra is peak.
SPEAKER_02You know, I just have to say, while you're talking, not to get off track too much more, but his unpredictableness as a character is what makes him so entertaining. And I do feel like that's why I'm gravitating toward Devin Ezara and Maul as well. Like she's very unpredictable. And Ezra's like that too. He kind of goes by the beat of his own drum, he knows kind of what he should do, but maybe like if I tried it this way, what would happen? And Devin is a lot like that also. And I know we're both looking forward to seeing more of her, more of Maul, not only in the finale on Monday, but also season two, which is gonna be absolutely fantastic.
SPEAKER_00An honorable mention, Hondo. Slay. Especially him and Ezra's dynamic is just it never I've always entertained his entire dialogue. I just I love it. That is so true.
SPEAKER_02That is so true. Okay, so our first quiz that we're gonna do is called All the Trivia, Hard Star Wars Trivia, and this one was made in May 28th of 2023.

SPEAKER_02A Sage Ventress. We know it's not that one.
SPEAKER_00That doesn't sound right.

SPEAKER_00Technically, also Solo.
SPEAKER_02How do you feel about that movie?
SPEAKER_00The Phantom Menace?
SPEAKER_02Yeah.
SPEAKER_00Um well The Phantom Menace is a generational movie. You you have to be under 35 to appreciate it, I think.
SPEAKER_02I can agree with that in most cases.
SPEAKER_00And I think the more Star Wars content comes out, and the more frequently I watch the Phantom Menace, the more I appreciate it. Yeah. Um, I think at face value for what it was, it was kind of like it just didn't really fit the mold. But the more I watch it, the more I appreciate the world building that is happening um pretty much all the time.
SPEAKER_02Right.
SPEAKER_00Um so is it the best Star Wars movie? No, Attack of the Clones certainly is. Um no, just kidding. I'm kidding.
SPEAKER_02I mean, I wasn't gonna give you hate for it. I know, I know you you like Padme.

SPEAKER_00To track it?
SPEAKER_02Yes, so what was the name of the ship that Darth Vader used to track the Millennium Falcon in the Empire Strikes Back? So Darth Vader ship Devastator, Annihilator, Executor, or Dominic. I'm kind of leaning toward executor.
SPEAKER_00No. Read him again.
SPEAKER_02Devastator, Annihilator, Executor, Dominator.
SPEAKER_00It's either the first one or the last one.
SPEAKER_02Annihilator kind of sounds right.

SPEAKER_02What do you what do you I'll I'll pick the one you want to pick?
SPEAKER_00Read me the first one and the last one?
SPEAKER_02Devastator or Dominator.
SPEAKER_00I think it's Dominator.
SPEAKER_02Really? I really do think it's Annihilator. I'll go with Dominator.
SPEAKER_00I'm trying to think because there were different classes of Starship, Star Destroyer. They weren't all the same size.
SPEAKER_02Yeah.

SPEAKER_00It's Star Wars.
SPEAKER_02Okay, it's probably like really hot bath water. Take me. But it's also pouring rain and stormy.
SPEAKER_00Which but like Oregon stormy rain or Florida stormy rain?
SPEAKER_02Maybe like it's probably cold.
SPEAKER_00That's why Kenobi was shivering.

SPEAKER_00What, like three days?
SPEAKER_02I don't write the questions, I just read them. Alright. Who was the non- who was the only non-Jedi or Sith character in the original trilogy to use a lightsaber? Non-Jedi used a lightsaber.
SPEAKER_00List them off?
SPEAKER_02Princess Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca, or Boba Fett.
SPEAKER_00Oh, in the OT?
SPEAKER_02I think so. In the original trilogy. Wasn't it Han Solo? I feel like he used it to do something. Like he used it to like cut.
SPEAKER_00He cuts open the um the um Oh, the Tauntaun.
SPEAKER_02Oh, that's right.
SPEAKER_00Yes, he cuts open the Tauntaun and puts Luke in it.
SPEAKER_02Good call. Okay, 14. What is the name of the weapon that the Empire uses to destroy planets? That is the Death Star, Project Stardust. Which it was a cool little tidbit that we found out in Andor that they were making parts for the Death Star. That was a really cool tidbit in like the labor prisons. That was cool. And finally, which planet did Anakin Skywalker grow up on? That would be Tatooine. Okay. Finish. Let's see what we scored. We scored a 73.3%.
SPEAKER_00So all the ones we were not sure about, we got wrong.
SPEAKER_02So the name of the bounty hunter who disguised herself as a palace dancer was Bosch Boche. I've never heard of that character. Um who killed Job of the Hutt in Return of the Jedi. This says Princess Leia.
SPEAKER_00That's what you typed.
SPEAKER_02It's actually Luke Skywalker. Which I do not agree with that.
SPEAKER_00She choked him with the chain.
SPEAKER_02I know. That's wrong. Um, the next one that we got wrong is the name of Darth Vader's ship is not the dominator, it is the executor. I didn't know that either. Um, who was the only non-Jedi or Sith character in the OT to use a lightsaber? Not Han Solo. It was Princess Leia.
SPEAKER_00Wrong.
SPEAKER_02Wrong. I don't agree with that either.
SPEAKER_00Wrong.
SPEAKER_02Unless we're just dumb.
SPEAKER_00Nope.
SPEAKER_02Maybe this is a little bit more.

SPEAKER_00Luke?
SPEAKER_02Luke. This has got to be a legend.
SPEAKER_00This has gotta be a legends question.
SPEAKER_02It's gotta be an EU question. Because I was very confident in Mara Jade being his only true love, like the only person he's ever fallen in love with, but she's not even on this list, so we're kind of hosed. We can use a hint. Should I tap the hint?
SPEAKER_00If there's gonna be legends questions on here, we're cooked. We are cooked.
SPEAKER_02We are cooked.
SPEAKER_00I mean, no offense, no offense to legends.
SPEAKER_02No, they're they're wise.
SPEAKER_00They certainly have given depth to Star Wars.
SPEAKER_02What did he write? But I don't, I'm not even up to depth on You deserve to be bowed for your greatness and praise forever. That's the that's the you fans. They deserve that.
SPEAKER_00Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_00What?
SPEAKER_02What was the first thing Obi-Wan Kenobi says in all Star Wars movies? I have a bad feeling about this. Did he does he say that? I feel like Con Solo says that in the first Oh no. Who says it in A New Hope?
SPEAKER_00The first thing Obi-Wan says in A New Hope is hello there.
SPEAKER_02Come closer, my young friend. My little friend. He says it to R2D too. I'm gonna put a bad feeling about this because I think that's what they mean.
SPEAKER_00Let me see. Let me see.
SPEAKER_02What was the first thing they said? Look, I have a underscore. Bad feeling about this is four words.
SPEAKER_00Oh, I guess.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, I'm going with that. Okay, number four. Mara Jade was the emperor's hand, like her right, his right hand. If her ability could be classified to one body part, Mara would have a very large what? Nose, ear, eye, or mouth. If her ability was she a good listener?
SPEAKER_00Probably ear.
SPEAKER_02Okay, let's go with that.
SPEAKER_00Because think about it. I mean, this I have I don't even know who that is, but Palpatine knew what was going on always.
SPEAKER_02He needed good listeners. And he had to have good information. Yeah. I like that one. Okay, number five. Which of these scientists helped design the Death Star? Cray Mingla? Uh Kui Hux? Grand Mop Tarkin or Toll Sivron? I really have no idea, bro.

SPEAKER_00Jabba's full name. Jabba Basadi Hyof. Or Jabba del Grando. Or Jabba the Hut.

SPEAKER_00Okay, how many secret planets have they gone through? Our options are one, two, three, or four.
SPEAKER_02Honestly, these kids are troublemakers, so I say four.
SPEAKER_00Okay.
SPEAKER_02Or two. I'm kind of leaning toward two.
SPEAKER_00Could be three.
SPEAKER_02It could be one. We're out of hints. I think we used our hints on like question one, two, and three.
SPEAKER_00Okay. I'm going three.
SPEAKER_02Okay, okay. One for each.
SPEAKER_00According to the novelization of Return of the Jedi.
SPEAKER_02Oh, haven't read that one.
SPEAKER_00When did Darth Vader lose his right hand? I'm gonna say in a duel with Obi-Wan.
SPEAKER_02Did he lose it in the duel with the Obi Wan needs Count Dook? Is that an option?
SPEAKER_00Yes.
SPEAKER_02Okay, click it.
SPEAKER_00In according to Attack of the Clones. Oh, according to Attack of the Clones. Okay, what? When did Anakin Skywalker lose his right hand?
SPEAKER_02Oh, that's the second question?
SPEAKER_00In a duel with Count Dooku. Okay, so we're going back to the novelization of Return of the Jedi. In a duel with Mace Windu, Obi-Wan, or in a speeder accident?
SPEAKER_02I am so confused. Where are we right now? Did we answer the first the first question was when did Darth Vader lose his right hand?
SPEAKER_00As written in Return of the Jedi.
SPEAKER_02Okay, so it's not accurate to the movie.
SPEAKER_00It's probably not accurate.
SPEAKER_02Okay.
SPEAKER_00I'm gonna say Obi-Wan.
SPEAKER_02I like that.
SPEAKER_00According to Splinter of the Mind's Eye.
SPEAKER_02I'm currently reading that book.
SPEAKER_00When did Darth Vader lose his right hand? In a duel with Luke? In a duel with Count Dooku? In a duel with Obi-Wan? In a duel with Mace Windu.
SPEAKER_02Okay, so I'm only like four pages in. So brilliant.
SPEAKER_00I'm reading that book.
SPEAKER_02Okay, you want to I can answer. You know what's crazy is Splinter the Mind's Eye, for any anyone who's still listening, is um the first EU book. It was released a year after A New Hope. So it came out before Empire Strikes Back. It came out before Return of the Jedi. It was the first EU book. Isn't that interesting?
SPEAKER_00Crazy. So if you had to guess.
SPEAKER_02Okay, what was the question again? When did Darth Vader lose his right hand according to Splinter of the Mind's eye? In what kind of battle reread reread the options, please?
SPEAKER_00Luke, Dooku, Obi-Wan, or Mace Windu. It's not gonna be Windu. It's probably not gonna be Luke.
SPEAKER_02I would say Obi-Wan because if I was gonna write a book and I had only seen a new hope, I would assume that Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader had a history, and the history is he cut off Darth Vader's hand.
SPEAKER_00Yoda's species is as yet unknown, but there is another.
SPEAKER_02Yadel!
SPEAKER_00Who is the other member of Yoda's species?
SPEAKER_02Is Yaddle an option?
SPEAKER_00We have to type it in. Okay, good. It's two Ds. Yes.
SPEAKER_02Did you like her story arc in Tales of the Jedi? Like that we got to see her a little bit with Count Dooku? Yes. Yeah, that was really awesome.
SPEAKER_00Your results for really hard Star Wars. Let's see how you did.
SPEAKER_02Oh no. Let's see how you did.
SPEAKER_00Number one, Thrawn's name. Correct.
SPEAKER_02Nice. What's the what was the overall score? Like how many did we get wrong? Like I I want to go through all of them, but I am curious if it's going to give us an overall. Did we like score a D minus?
SPEAKER_00Like your score, nine out of twenty.
SPEAKER_02Not even a D minus, like an F minus. Happy May the fourth, everybody.
SPEAKER_00You know what's funny though? I'm looking at these scores. Um the score distribution. We are a little better than average.
SPEAKER_02Really?
SPEAKER_00Um, no. We're right at average.
SPEAKER_02Okay, okay, let's go through. What happened? Let's learn something. You want me to go through them? Yeah, let's learn something. Obviously, the first one was correct. That was the only one I was calling.
SPEAKER_00Luke Skywalker fell in love with all but which person? The answer, Tioni. I'll just do the ones we got wrong.
SPEAKER_02Yeah, please.
SPEAKER_00Resati Ener had an unusual first roommate. Who was she? The answer Andorni Hui. Andorni Hui was a Rhodian, one of the few non-human rogue squadron members.
SPEAKER_02Interesting.
SPEAKER_00Um what is the oldest Walker ATPT? Oh. The prototype ATPTs were all aboard the Katana fleet when it jumped into hyperspace.
SPEAKER_02Prototype. Prototype.
SPEAKER_00Thrawn's katana fleet. Yes.
SPEAKER_02Bro, you think we're gonna see those in Ahsoka?
SPEAKER_00That's interesting that the ATPTs were on his fleet when it jumped into hyperspace. We should go back and re-watch Rebels and see if I don't remember that from Rebels.
SPEAKER_02And you know it would be. Dave was pretty accurate with any of the EU refs.
SPEAKER_00The Arcona come from which planet? The correct answer was Kona.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_00Due to Kona's lax lack of axial tilt, the climate is the same everywhere. Interesting. Interesting. Only 27% of players answer that correctly.
SPEAKER_02Well, we are in the minority. Or no, we're in the majority.
SPEAKER_00Which of these isn't one of the monsters on Chewbacca's chessboard? The answer was Durkey. The Durkey appeared in the droids animated series.
SPEAKER_02Oh, how could I forget?
SPEAKER_00What is the name of the half-crash ship on Moss Eisley? It was the Dowager Queen.
SPEAKER_02Ah, I was leaning toward that one too.
SPEAKER_00We both knew it wasn't Emancipator, but that's okay. Four scored seven years ago on Tatooine. What is Jabba's full name? It is not Jabba the Hutt. Shocker. The correct correct answer is Jabba de Siligique Thur.
SPEAKER_02Oh, so he's French.
SPEAKER_00Can I make a French joke? Now we might have some French listeners. No offense to our French listeners.
SPEAKER_02I don't think I've seen anyone in France on the analytics, so you might be safe.
SPEAKER_00Hutt's full names are usually kept secret.
SPEAKER_02Oh, interesting. So that's why we didn't know.
SPEAKER_0041% of players answered that correctly. Well, we stink. Princess Leia accepted how many gifts from the Hapis cluster? The answer was 62. Wow. She received 62 gifts each from one of the 63 planets, except for Hapis, whose gifts she didn't accept. So okay.
SPEAKER_02I do have an issue with this quiz. I'll get to it at the end.
SPEAKER_00How many secret planets have the solo children gone through? We answered three. The correct answer was two. The solo children were hidden on New Alderon and Anoth.
SPEAKER_02I have to read these books. Like a lot of these answers are making me want to read some EU books.
SPEAKER_00According to the novelization of Return of the Jedi, when did Darth Vader lose his right hand? The answer was in a duel with Obi-Wan. Darth Vader must not protect his right hand while dueling.
SPEAKER_02Okay.
SPEAKER_00Attack of the Clones, we got it, Dooku. Splinter of the Mind's Eye. The answer was in a duel with Luke.
SPEAKER_02Oh.
SPEAKER_00That Vader always losing his right hand right at a critical Oh. It's somebody tried to make a joke. It's okay. It was more like that Vader always losing his right hand at a critical moment of the battle.
SPEAKER_02So silly.
SPEAKER_00Anyways.
SPEAKER_02That was that?
SPEAKER_00Okay. Yes, that was that.
SPEAKER_02So I do have a I do have a quarrel, a qualm with trivia quizzes, especially Star Wars, because um it's it's difficult to find the correct range. Like I feel like the first one we did had some range because I knew a little more than you. You still knew quite a bit of it. But I don't like that the because I I had to search quite a bit for like challenging quizzes because a lot of them are like, what is Luke's father's name? You know, or like is Princess Leia Luke's sister, cousin, wife, like things like that. Or it's questions like that, like what is Job of the Hutt's legal full name? And it was referenced one time in this obscure book that came out in the 90s. Like it's hard to find a good range when it comes to a fan base that is so like we're all on different journeys, you know what I mean? Like I might not know the answer because I didn't play that game, or you might know the and not know the answer because you didn't read that book. So if you want a quiz that's like general information, a lot of times they're all way too easy.
SPEAKER_00So, you know, we tried Cope Maxing 101.
SPEAKER_02Okay. I'm just trying to say, like, do you agree with anything I said though? Like the it it can be kind of hard to find good trivia quizzes, especially for something like that, where it's like, okay, give me a quiz on Star Wars. Okay, well, what do you mean? Like, there's so much of it, and where where are you at on the fandom level?
SPEAKER_00Like, yeah, it's it's hard with it's it's hard just because especially unfortunately the the EU um has been a divide for Star Wars fans, and so for us, there's so much new Star Wars content coming out that we never really got into legends in EU, and so we really don't have an appreciation for it because it's hard enough to keep up with new content and to keep up with the the current canon.
SPEAKER_02Right.
SPEAKER_00It's it's hard to veer off. I say that and I don't read any of the books, so for me, you know, it doesn't really matter.
SPEAKER_02But well, and that's what I was thinking too, is like I alm I really do wish I could have been a fan when it first started, when a new hope came out, because then it's like everyone's on an even playing field. When a new book got announced, you just went and got it. Or like if a if a news article interview came out, you read it, like you consumed it as it was released. Whereas now I became a fan in t late 2010s, so I'm I'm kind of hosed. I'm already like 35 years behind the game, you know? So I don't know. I think it's just interesting, like a good conversation to have just how many ranges there are with the fan base. Like you aren't this type of fan or this type of fan, you're kind of in your own area, like not every fan. I I just what I'm trying to say is like when you meet someone new and they're like, Oh, I like Star Wars, you kind of have to have a conversation and figure out what does that mean to you? Like, do you play the games? Do you read the books? Have you watched the shows? Do you enjoy the movies? Have you seen this interview? Did you watch this documentary? Or do you just like to build Lego sets?
SPEAKER_00You know, like Or do you just are you just excited to go see the Mandalorian and Baby Yoda movie?
SPEAKER_02Exactly. Yeah, and I think it's just such a range.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, and I think there's a I do think the Star Wars community is trying to heal. Um, and we see that with just people that are just they're just happy that you do like Star Wars.
SPEAKER_02It's true.
SPEAKER_00Um and you know, there's no not really any hate for for being um a casual fan anymore. Um and I think part of that has to do with with shows and movies that are easily palatable for casual fans.
SPEAKER_02Right.
SPEAKER_00Just to get people interested in Star Wars, get these get kids interested in Star Wars and their parents, because if mom and dad aren't excited to watch the Mandalorian show when it comes out, and they aren't trying to piece together who these characters are and and kind of build that excitement, then they're their little kids aren't gonna watch it. They're gonna watch Coco Melon or they're gonna watch, you know, whatever it is. They're not going to get into it, too. So you ha I'm glad that Star Wars is there's something for everyone. Yes, and and I think the Clone Wars animation is a prime example of that. It was it was geared and presented to kids through Cartoon Network, but it was not for only kids.
SPEAKER_02Right, like adult fans very much appreciate it, value it, rave about it.
SPEAKER_00Watch the Umbara arc and tell me that Clone Wars was for seven-year-old kids.
SPEAKER_02It's true. Well, and you know, something recently that did come out that was very much a for kids Star Wars project besides Jedi Adventures was Skeleton Crew. It was very much for getting kids into Star Wars. Hey, here's this like Goonie-like adventure. You're in this now. Like, you are that little kid who wishes he was a Jedi, you are that little girl who, you know, is fierce and wants to go on a great adventure. Like, so I think having Star Wars where it's available to any age, any journey is important. But unfortunately for us, it also means that there's like horribly difficult trivia quizzes where we know absolutely nothing. But we still had fun. I had fun. It was fun, it was fun, and you know, that's what it's all about, just having fun. And I'm excited because I've I talk about that every week on my show. Just why I started this show in the first place was to have fun, talk about Star Wars, and hopefully you guys enjoyed. Thank you so much for spending a little bit of time with us um on your lovely May 4th festivities. Um, I hope you're enjoying the mall finale as much as we are looking forward to enjoying it.
