About
A long time ago on a Podcast in Essex... It’s 1977 - 2000AD launches; Lynyrd Skynyrd die in a plane crash; and no one on this podcast was born yet. Our Star Wars watch-through reaches a milestone with “A New Hope” aka “Star Wars”. So prepare yourself for an episode with a longer running time than the actual film; shut down all the garbage mashers on the Detention Level; have a drink in a really rough pub (good music though); and re-imagine Jabba as an avuncular fat Scotsman in a fur coat. • Watch (or more likely re-watch) to avoid spoilers, and join us. FEATURES STRONG LANGUAGE. APOLOGIES FOR ANY SOUND QUALITY ISSUES -CURRENT QUARANTINE MEASURES MEANT WE HAD TO RECORD THIS EPISODE REMOTELY.

Adam So, and we are here to I mean, strap yourselves in folks, because this is going to be I'm guessing, you know, psychophantic to the point of sickening.
Lee Yeah.

Adam Um, just before we sort of brace in, has anyone been any, yeah, that's the sort of start you want for this, isn't it?
Chris I might have to just break in, break in with a format and say I'm going full light speed on this one. I'm going 0.5 past light speed and I'm going to say this film, this film gets 11 out of 10, otherwise known as spinal tap. It is, it has the best storyline, best script, best characters, best scene with the twin sons, best weapons, best title, best music, best sound effects, best good versus evil portrayal, it is the best film.
Chris That's it. I'm done.
