About this episode
Originally released on Patreon, December 7, 2018
“To me, the idea of Brian De Palma watching Star Wars is like Abraham Lincoln reading Watchmen.” - Steve
On this We ❤️ Movies episode, the gang is chatting effusively about the beloved, action-packed space opera, Star Wars! There's no point in telling you three measly plot points covered in this episode like we normally do in descriptions, though. This is the longest recording in show history* and we had a ton of fun talking about one of our greatest loves! Do keep your eyes peeled for the entire backstory of fan favorite gleep-glop, "that werewolf"!
Star Wars stars Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford, Alec Guinness, Anthony Daniels, Kenny Baker, Peter Mayhew, Peter Cushing, and William Hootkins as Perkins; directed by George Lucas.
*EDITOR’S NOTE: We now believe our longest-running episode to be our We ❤️ Movies episode on The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, clocking in at three hours and five minutes! - Andrew
