‘Star Wars Holiday Spectacular’, With Guests John Siracusa and Guy English

Wednesday 31 December 2014

A brief chat about the Star Wars movies, with special guests John Siracusa and Guy English.

Update, Monday 5 January 2015: Updated with a new Special Edition edit, including a new introduction, a new editing gag around the 2:20:00 mark, new poster art, and some subtle re-syncing of the audio tracks. No extra Banthas were added, and Siracusa still shoots first.
