This week, Will, Norm, and Jeremy explore the aftermath of Thanksgiving and Black Friday, discuss the Jurassic World and Star Wars VII trailers, converting The Wire to a widescreen aspect ratio, the Sony Pictures hack, and NASA’s now-delayed Orion test launch. Enjoy!

Thanks! I’ll wait for the video then.. 😊
We went through a foot of snow to cut our own tree in NY!!
OMG… They are not clones anymore. The Empire had long gotten past using clones. Even though the EU doesn’t count it’s pretty much a given. There’s even an episode of Rebels where they infiltrate a storm trooper training center as recruits.
Also… I can’t wait for Norm to be wron about the opening shot. I will bet a crisp $1 bill he is a storm trooper who is defecting.
Cheers.
“…or is that Joaquin Phoenix too” I lol’d. :p
Will fucked up absolutely everything; after a while, I wasn’t sure if he was for real or just trolling. Kind of impressive.
Lots of my friends are at Kennedy Space Center and we do the NASA Social journalism to advocate space exploration and science. Hope you guys watch tomorrow on NASA TV.
Just wanted to share this, I’m not sure if anyone seen it yet the Star Wars trailer redone in lego

When nation states disappear….Rollerball…
Die Hard is my favorite Christmas movie
Getting “Suicide Squad” mixed up with “Sinister Six” is probably going to be a common problem.
Silent Night, Deadly Night, best Christmas movie ever!
Iron Man 3 and The Ice Harvest are some of my favourite Christmastime movies.
Norm will be happy to hear there’s a Christmas special of Black Mirror being broadcast over here in the UK on the 16th. Hopefully it’ll be on Netflicks soon.
The starfighter flown in the teaser is definitely a X-Wing, sure it is not the T-65 model seen in the prequels, but those are not the only crafts called X-Wing.
In the EU there are almost two dozen different types, all called X-Wings, in official canon there is at this point only the T-65 and whatever the one Oscar Isaacs is flying in the teaser, the name of which hasn’t been released yet.
7 or so years ago we got a heavy green painted metal tree stand from home depot (possibly iron) and its a bit of a pain to screw the bolts that hold the tree in but, its still in great condition (i did bend one of the eye bolts) the paint is not flaking or chipping. also its so heavy that unless you have a pet who climbs or otherwise knocks the tree down you don’t even have to tie it up
Why are so few people talking about the international trailer? It’s not nearly as good IMO, but it is strangely composed almost entirely of different shots from the US one.
Awesome! Charlie Brooker is so great.
*A that’s a fan trailer!
Wouldn’t the “pop-in” be a call back to Episode 4?
“Look sir….Droids!”
IDK, the original Black Christmas has always been my favorite Christmas oriented horror flick. I’m also a big fan of the BBC’s M.R. James adaptations Ghost Stories for Christmas from the 70’s.
I fully expect the spatchcocking and butt stuffing comments to show up in a future outro…
Link to survey please…
With regards to licensing for Ham Radio, the test fee is $15 to pay for the test material. Depending on what you get for study materials, that can add up some, but some Ham Radio clubs may have study material to loan out to people wanting to get their license.
When you go into the testing session, once you pass the first written test, you can take the next higher level tests with the same “session fee”. So, if you’re good enough at studying & testing, you can come in with no license and come out passing the Extra class test (the highest license class that gives you privileges on all the Amateur frequencies).
The expensive bit can come after you get your license and start getting radio gear. You can get decent used gear at a lot of Ham fests & flea markets, but brand new gear can get rather expensive.
i can’t believe they are rebooting the terminator series. i still like where they were going with Salvation. i was hoping any future movies would be more of the war. preview for Genisys looks pretty good, I can’t believe all the iconic one liners they are bringing back with the GOVERNATOR!
You guys should start a Star Wars spin-off podcast. Or at least give a warning so I can skip ahead 20 minutes.
Its cool to see Black Mirror get real traction on US Netflix. One of those shows that would never, ever be made in the States.
Serial is totally on my “to listen” list. Need to get around to it.
Want another serialized podcast that you should listen to from beginning to end? “Our Fair City”

Science fiction, drama, action, humor, molepeople. Topped off with awesome production value.
I disagree with Will’s comment- I’m 17, and I’m not a fan of the prequels at all. That could just be me, though.
Our eyes are such an incredible construction, that replacing them is going to be one of the last things we do. So many more aspects to improve. Maybe enhancements on top, just to start.
Oh, and E-ink Rorschach mask! That would be cool.
What is the title to the video with the steady camera movement for the millennium falcon scene? haven’t been able to find it on my own
You guys should order Christmas trees in Europe. Here in the Netherlands, a 6 or 7 ft tree costs about 10 to 15 dollars!
Really? But old Mark Hamill is in it at 1:08. I’m confused…
Not sure if it was noted yet. But on the topic of episode 7 the rolling ball droid was a real prop not CG. There was an interview with Mark Hammel about it.
It makes sense that if it is a featured character than they’d want to make toys like it, so it would need to be real.
Anyway, with your connections I’d love to see an interview with the guy who designed/built an RC Ball robot and the mechanics behind it.
