‘Star Wars: A New Hope’ (Part Two) With Bill Simmons, Chris Ryan, Sean Fennessey, and Van Lathan

Perhaps. I understand that... particularly in fantasy properties, seeing Black characters is reassuring in a couple of different ways. One, it's reassuring because you don't want to think that you're living in a world where when white people fantasize that there are no Black people. Like that in and of itself is like odd, right?

And when I'm watching Star Wars, particularly, what I want to do is think about a world where all of the handcuffs and the societal barriers that exist. All the baggage.

I understand why we have to consider it, but when I'm watching a movie, I'm really not thinking about that because I'm in another galaxy, in another world, and I'm having a good time being there.

Okay. Thank you. Okay. So this is the deal. This movie is the trilogy, not the movie, but the trilogy is a lot better if Luke and Leia mistakenly fuck in this movie. Okay. Okay. The Van Lathan did this movie to be more incestuous? If Luke and Leia mistakenly fuck in this movie, not mistakenly because they didn't want to fuck. And that's why he goes to Dagobah? And he actually banishes himself.

He feels it. And then think about Luke and Leia are fucking and Obi-Wan is in the back. No, Luke. Like slow motion? Like Obi-Wan knows. He's trying to tell Luke not to do it. but the dick is just too strong, the dark side of the dick. And Skywalker just wants it. He's got to have it. Leia's into it. There's a connection. They don't know what the connection is.

So if they fuck and then they have to deal with that guilt, Luke is maybe more apt to the dark side. The whole trilogy is better. A little darker if they mistakenly fuck in the Millennium Falcon.
