[00:00:00]When he stands up and says, you know, he's won his freedom to die, all the cells that open up, the the electricity comes on above them in the ring. Again, for the million of times they Ludwig Goransson score at this point in time, all the Dejarik board characters coming together for the first time in live action, which I've got to praise. That is like an Easter egg, the most unforced Easter egg ever that resulted in one of the coolest scenes in Star Wars in for quite some time. And we just went on to have the most insane 5-minute action sequence. It's also the fact that Sorry to jump in. It's also the fact that the floor of the pit is also a Dejarik board. Yeah.

[00:00:39]It's It's wild how they did it. I'm crediting them for how they did it, because it's much better than soldiers playing Dejarik on on the Millennium Falcon. And that works for an Easter egg, but to incorporate it into the film and to have these monsters fighting, and you've got a Mandalorian and a Hutt.

[00:00:58]I loved the creativity of the scene. I loved the aliens. It's pure Attack of the Clones for me. It was like the arena in Attack of the Clones. I sat there like, "Oh my [ __ ] word, here we go."

[00:01:08]Yeah, but what about CGI?

[00:01:10]>> [laughter] >> Yeah, yeah, yeah. And And then, when the electricity goes, without jumping too far ahead, cuz I'll get your thoughts on on on the Dejariks too, but when it suddenly becomes them just killing all the members of the public, I was like, "Oh, it's a bit King Kong."

[00:01:23]Like, I had King Kong vibes too, but I want your thoughts on the pit, cuz this is maybe my favorite sequence in the film. It's so goddamn cool. It is a proper If you don't realize it, if you don't click that it is the Dejarik characters, and if you don't click it's the board, it still works. It works brilliantly.

[00:01:44]But, if you do click it, it has an It has a coolness to it. And this again, when I talk about shoehorning it, I'm sick. I love fan service when it's done well. I hate it when it's shoehorned in for the purpose. This didn't feel like that.
