Backstory 16: The Short and Winding Road

<<FIRST     <PREVIOUS     NEXT>    

Commentary by memnarch (who has not seen the movie)

Wildly side to side in a tight alleyway like this isn’t going to help much anyway. This feels like something happening in the movie is being made fun of here.

I just tried saying the sound effects here as well and I realized that it’s pretty close to the podrace sound effects I vaguely remember from Episode I. Now I’m going to be disappointed if Moloch’s truck/speeder doesn’t explode or otherwise fly into pieces at the end of this chase. And that little bike or whatever it is the trooper has probably isn’t going to last long either.

Qi’ra must have some non compos mentis problem as well if she’s thinking Alberto has good ideas. This brilliant idea is going to cause another giant mess unrelated to the chase, isn’t it?

Transcript

Jim: I wove wildly from side to side to lose Moloch. But he was still closing.
Pete: By going straight and covering less distance?
[SFX]: vrooom!
Jim: Yeah, he’s devious.
[SFX]: Brgrgrgrr...
Jim: A patrol trooper saw us speed by and gave chase.
[SFX]: Vrooooom!
Jim: Since the droid got smashed, you can play him too.
Patrol Trooper: Well, well, well, looky what we got here. Pull over!
[SFX]: zzzip!!
Qi’ra: To get through this security zone we’ll need an official pass!
Alberto: Don’t worry. I’ve got the most scathingly brilliant idea.
[SFX]: brgrgrgrr...
[SFX]: vrooom!
Qi’ra: Oh, I love all your ideas! Your brain would be your most attractive feature if the rest of you wasn’t so handsome!
Qi’ra: And your brain wasn’t so... wrinkly.
Alberto: Gnarlier is gnarlier, baby!
