The J.J. commentary was a good listen. I only wish they had included another person, I always find it more entertaining when it’s a conversation rather than a solo-effort.*

*No need to make the Han joke unless you can come up with something really good.

Why include anyone other than J.J. since he’s the brains, sweetheart.

Well…I think there’s a pretty good argument to include Lawrence Kasdan the co-writer of The Force Awakens and writer of The Empire Strikes Back. I’d also love to hear from Kathleen Kennedy and her thoughts on bringing this all about. And then of course there’d be a lot of interest in a special commentary with Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford. Heck, a commentary from the folks at ILM would be fascinating. Point is, the buck does not stop with Abrams.

whoosh

That’s the sound of the joke of Frink asking for a Han Solo joke, getting it, and Tobar missing it.

Yeah in fairness it was a lame joke. It’d have been cool to have a joint JJ/Kasdan commentary as it seems they really worked closely together to break the story and write the script. It’d also be great to hear from some of the other people involved as well, though perhaps on a separate track. If you listen to something like JJ’s Star Trek commentary there’s a bunch of interesting tidbits but there’s also 4 or 5 people on it so you get the feeling there’s so much stuff you’re missing.
