- Finally getting to watch "The War of the Stars: A New Hope Grindhoused." I'm expecting greatness from this fan edit! #
- Opens with a new crawl, perhaps from one of the original drafts? #
- Black and white footage of Luke, looking up at the Death Star / Tantive fight in orbit of Tattooine. #
- Sweet! We get R2D2 subtitles! #
- Awesome! Blood splatter amidst the rebels vs. stormtroopers! #
- Deleted footage of Biggs and Camie and the others. #
- They're using alternate dialoge from other James Earl Jones movies as Darth Vader dialogue, occasionally hilarious. #
- R2D2 subtitles when shot by the Jawas: "you… … bastards…" #
- There is some rocking synth music in place of John Williams score. Definitely enhances the mood. #
- C3PO: "Do you think they'll melt us down?" R2D2: "Well … maybe they need gold…." #

- Obi Wan: "I don't seem to remember owning a droid…" R2D2: "Obi Wan… It's me!…" #
- They've spliced in a scene from Troops! #
- Red Glowy Eyed Vader chokes the dude. Tarkin: "Vader, release him" Vader: "Address me as LORD Vader" #
- Oh man, they just superimposed Owen and Beru's faces over the Twin Suns, after Luke finds their bodies. #warofthestars #
- Obi-wan: "Mos Eisley spaceport, you'll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy … fucking shithole…". LOL #warofthestars #

- Recording a podcast is a lot like going on a road trip every week. Sitting in one position, drinking lots of coffee, for hours and hours. #
- Also like a road trip: being excited at the beginning, and then slowly growing more anxious, the longer it takes. I love it. #
- About to watch a 20th Century Fox film, shot in cinemascope, starring James Mason, about addiction, on Blu-ray. Oh yeah. #

- @kirk13 I watched the first half, it was pretty standard biopic stuff, but it was amazing to see Kurt totally owning the Elvis image. in reply to kirk13 #
- @kirk13 spotty how? Like unreadable? There is a moment at the beginning where they're both speaking Ukrainian, and it's not translated. #
- @Rudie_Obias there is a link to it in yesterdays shownotes #
- @kirk13 I was a little turned around by that too when I watched the DVD, I thought for a second that I'd forgotten to turn the subtitles on. in reply to kirk13 #
