It's a good thing those younglings didn't learn how to become Force ghosts before they died. Or that Force ghost reunion would have been awkward.

The fact he named himself after Ben Quadinaros is fantastic! We all wondered what he could have done if his engines worked.

I like that this writing doesn't immediately switch to goofy mode as soon as the jokes start. The characters still respond in character

Adding the Cerveza Cristal in the box is a stroke of genius lmao

"What a small galaxy!"
That's the most concise description of the problem I've ever heard.

As a Chilean, I laughed very hard when I saw the CERVEZA CRISTAL at 2:33 😂 ... It has the incorrect label but doesn't matter

My favorite bit is Luke's exaggerated "aww shucks" reaction to Obi-Wan's compliment about his piloting!

@MetalGamer666 1 month ago

The most crazy thing is Chewbacca never telling his best friend that he is friends with what is basically the pope of the Star Wars universe!

I'm pretty sure Artoo and Chewie know when to keep their yaps shut. Threepio didn't, and that's why they wiped his memory.

Of course R2 knows everything. EVERYTHING!

"Luke, this is kind of awkward to tell you now, but... Your parents met when your mother was queen and your father was like 8 years old."

We all know Ben Quadinaros was robbed 😤

Kashyyyk has three "y"s in it. Please have your nerd card on my desk by the end of the shift.

The whole Ben Quadinaros theory was not one I was expecting, but now that I've heard it, I'm totally here for it.

I like to think R2D2 has unrestricted access to Empire computers, cause he is still listed as a "trusted device" of Darth Vader.

Missing the whole “hey, isn’t Skywalker famous as the only human to ever win a pod race?”

Edit: how in the world is this throw away sentence the most liked and replied comment I have ever written?
