There is already a Star Wars book about Jar Jar Binks during the Empire's reign. He entertains children on the streets of Naboo and then he tells this child who comes up to him about his role in the Senate and the fall of the Republic. This book was also published after TFA was released so it has to be a part of the main universe and not Legends.
I love the idea of Jar Jar just being played straight. Where he's actually written as a funny character rather than shoved into "funny" scenes as some moron. I would even be okay with him being Snoke... except it isn't some master plan, he's just kind of fumbling his way around being evil, mostly just repeating the things his First Order advisers argue about. In the end it turns out that Jar Jar/Snoke is just a puppet of the force, and yeah, Hux is the real enemy. So when Luke reveals that he's too old to actually fight and our heroes find our there is no great Sith Lord, it's just Kylo and Rey on this weird coming of age adventure figuring out how to balance between light and dark to defeat the First Order.
I really enjoy watching Jenny candidly explain her relationship to Star Wars and fandom in general in this episode. It's such a core part of her online persona but she rarely drops the act and talks about it the way she does here.
They should write a movie or tv show together. At the start of each episode they'd have to have a disclaimer about the dangerous levels of sarcasm the viewer is about to experience.
I kept feeling like Jenny was trying so hard to make Max settle down because her schtick on the show is weirding his guests out into silence...but she couldn't contain him
I never said they were as funny, I'm just saying these two have a similar attitude and even the video editing in this one is very much in an RLM style.
At least JJ Abrams did admit he just didn’t think of that and agrees it was a mistake, Much better at taking feedback than yell at the fans Johnson x,D
These fair weather fans that can stick anything to anything, even though a popular art form enjoyed by many, it is not close to the practice of storytelling. "Don't make making sense stop you," the dark side thoughts repeat to JJ, 'Because the public will hug your film before they get the desire to kick it in its gut."
Filip Orvik The channel Red Letter Media does a fake parody show making fun of "geek culture" podcasts and shows. The catch phrase is "very cool," hence Max Landis's shirt.
It's such a fucking shame because all the people that criticise the film going "omg that script is so bad" assume that the script and the dialogue/ plot/ characters in the finished product are exactly the same. If they'd read it, however, (it's available online if you just search for it) they'd realise that, had it been adapted faithfully, it would have been fucking excellent.
This has been my favorite episode of The Millennial Falcon. It was entertaining seeing Jenny interact with Landis, and the conversation they had about Jar Jar. I would enjoy seeing more interactions like this, since she has such a unique, onscreen, personality for extended periods like this rather than just quick 1 min interactions.
Jenny: "Well that was a great discussion about Star Wars. So, now, I think it's time for you to leave." Landis: "Leave?" Jenny: "Leave." Landis: "Oh, okay. Yeah, sure." Jenny: "Okay." Jenny: "Do I get up and go?" Jenny: "Yes." lmao
Max your ideas are not only provoking, by get you to introspect and reflect on WHY you feel a certain way about movies/comics/shows. Thanks and keep up the pitch work!
On RUclips app under this video it says "one year ago" but I mean it's technically 23 months ago and therefore must be before certain hashtag me too revelations. I like to think Jenny's sarcasm is thinly veiled wariness and disdain.
This is quickly rising up the ranks of best ScreenJunkies show. That being said, Rogue One is my third favourite Star Wars film of all time! Love that movie.
The irony that now we've essentially gotten this story in Mandalorian and on top of that, Ahmed Best (Who played jar jar) played a jedi who protected and transported grogu in season 3 lol
Between this and the Comic Con babes video Jenny continues to intrigue me. I have a lot of respect for what she does. I'm not convinced I enjoy watching it but maybe I'm just enjoying it a different way than other videos? Also love Max in everything he does, you can't fake passion and creativity like that.
Talking about Star Wars while wearing a "Very Cool" shirt on another channel is kinda funny. The rest of the video doesn't even matter. Very cool... Very Cool
I like Max Landis. He thinks in terms of sense and personal individual character development. I like how he sees how things could have gone but didn't.
Man, I feel sorry for Screen Junkies, they have some of the dumbest subscribers. How people still aren't getting satire and sarcasm in this age is just depressing, I bet most of the dislikes are people who think The Onion is a legit news source.
Watson, take a look at the comments who think that this video is actually about fixing Star Wars. Also scroll down further and you'll find comments like Hugo Larios Colino's "I honestly don't quite get the character this girl is playing".
OJWH Honestly I think it's a combination of people who just don't get anything along with the fact that at some point SJ Fights accumulated a very hateful group of audience that just goes around disliking everything.
The Landis-Nicholson meeting has been a long time coming, and worth the wait. And it's the closest we've yet got to an RLM-Nicholson crossover. I think a lot of the problem SJ subscribers have with her sense of humour is that before her arrival she was maybe closer to Red Letter Media's sense of humour than Screen Junkies'. With the addition of her, though, SJ's humour covers a wider range and as someone who followed her here I've found a lot to like which I'd otherwise have missed.
I think the big Hollywood studios need Max Landis to just come up with random ideas for movies. He is so creative and thinks of original ideas that I want to see! They could benefit from him; even if they're not that good, people would still go see them because they're different.
Max Landis has a way of pitching truly terrible movie ideas & making me genuinely excited to see them. It's a wonderful gift but also horrifying when I remember he works in the film industry. Never stop doing what you're doing Max. You'll either die a genius or a failure but at least you'll never be mediocre.

“Ah, the calm before the storm.”
Jenny Nicholson casually yet brutally roasting Max Landis is my aesthetic
I don’t think you know what you’re saying
Lmao
Okay that Jar Jar trailer idea. I WOULD KILL to be in the theater if that was a legit movie just for the audience's reaction
+Paul Singam Jar Jar wasn't THAT annoying.
Or they could just make the logical choice and bring back Ahmed Best.

It needs to play the same song the Logan trailer did- Hurt.
Anyone complaining about Jenny hasn't seen her channel and how amazing it is.
This is amazing! I miss seeing Jenny interact with real humans so much!
Oh my god, a video with max landis where he is the grounded one
Carlos De la Luz right? Who'da thought we'd see the day lol
these two should host a show together
HE BROKE NEW GROUND
Carlos De la Luz 😂
He's always the grounded one
I really enjoy watching Jenny candidly explain her relationship to Star Wars and fandom in general in this episode. It's such a core part of her online persona but she rarely drops the act and talks about it the way she does here.
I just love the fact he is wearing a Nerd Crew shirt. Very cool.
figuratively speaking of course.
I SAW MAX LANDIS MAKE AN "I CLAPPED" JOKE AND I CLAPPED. HE BROKE NEW GROUND
I KNOW WHAT THAT IS
I CLAPPED WHEN I SAW IT TOO.
He is also wearing a redlettermedia tshirt
It subverted my expectations of Max Landis.
I M G O N N A C U M
Max Landis is like the first guest to actually feel at home on this show. His sense of humour matches Jenny's very well.
They should write a movie or tv show together. At the start of each episode they'd have to have a disclaimer about the dangerous levels of sarcasm the viewer is about to experience.
They should star in a TV show together as a married couple called
"The Awkwards"
While it's not my favourite episode, Max had a totally different way of communicating with Jenny, which I found extremely refreshing.
I kept feeling like Jenny was trying so hard to make Max settle down because her schtick on the show is weirding his guests out into silence...but she couldn't contain him
Well he was holding his own until Jenny told him to leave
When he proposed a Logan-esque Jar-Jar Binks movie ... I felt emotions hitherto unknown.
the trailer idea alone is fantastic
How long has Jenny been on SJ!?! I just discovered her and I have to say I like her candor, style, and wit.
I heard a crazy rumor Max...
lmao
Lolo Bond yup. Just a RUMOUR
TheLuigifan8881 continue to ignore victims
@TheLuigifan8881 it's just a weird coincidence that his ex girlfriend and former co-workers have backed up the accusations.
Me personally, I think Max's shirt is very cool. Very cool.
I clapped because I recognized it
Keep on hitting them home runs, Landis!!!!
I like Jennys dry humor.
This is like if RedLetterMedia ran Screen Junkies.
Superultramegaa LastName redletter media is far funnier to me, but I can see where you're coming from
I never said they were as funny, I'm just saying these two have a similar attitude and even the video editing in this one is very much in an RLM style.
Superultramegaa LastName yeah I get what you mean
The editing dude, its actually good.
And the Nerd Crew shirt he's wearing, referencing said RedLetterMedia makes this all very cyclical.
Jenny is so dry she might as well be a martini.
DrLipkin She leaves her guests shaken, not stirred.
she's a dirty martini. (that's a drink, look it up).
Is Max's "VERY COOL" shirt replacing RedLetterMedia?
a3HeadedMonkey didn't get the reference. Very cool.
I saw his shirt and I CLAPPED!
Very cool
Very cool
Very cool
Very cool
Very cool
Very cool
Very cool
Very cool
Very cool
tuz0wils0n I KNOW WHAT THAT IS!!!!!!!!!!!
tuz0wils0n I CLAPED CUZ I KNOW RLM!!!
I don't know why the princess Leia hugs Rei after the death of Han. She didn't know her, she should be hugging Chewbacca
wild mangrove yessss! I liked this movie but small details like this took me out of it.
Yeah.
At least JJ Abrams did admit he just didn’t think of that and agrees it was a mistake,
Much better at taking feedback than yell at the fans Johnson x,D

VERY COOL. VERY COOL. VERY COOL. VERY COOL. VERY COOL. VERY COOL. VERY COOL.
i clapped
Why is this all over the comment section?
Filip Orvik The channel Red Letter Media does a fake parody show making fun of "geek culture" podcasts and shows. The catch phrase is "very cool," hence Max Landis's shirt.
But why is it written about 8 times down the entire comment section? Is it because he said, very fun eight times in a row in the video?
Filip Orvik It's repeated a lot in the parody, not a specific amount of times though.
I was like Woof this guy is a Tool and then googled him... intuition strikes again
YUP
@@evekw2448 Ah yes, the "women accuse man and get him cancelled but no one actually presses any charges". I believe them. Not.
@@jaredouimette1 did I ask
@@jaredouimette1 he admitted to most of the allegation
"You know everbody hates you? Everbody knows what you did. I would hate to be you."
I think it was good that Max recognized that Jenny's irony level was something he should think of as above his own. (But his is still pretty high!)
Now i wanna watch a buddy-cop movie with Jenny and Max
He made m want that Jar Jar movie.... I'm actually disappointed knowing it wont ever happen
I want to see "How Max Landis Would Fix Victor Frankenstein"
Wait
Oh shi~
Can't be done
You can read it, it's a script called FRANKENSTEIN.
It's such a fucking shame because all the people that criticise the film going "omg that script is so bad" assume that the script and the dialogue/ plot/ characters in the finished product are exactly the same. If they'd read it, however, (it's available online if you just search for it) they'd realise that, had it been adapted faithfully, it would have been fucking excellent.
Uptomyknees LOL HE'S HERE
Jenny your deadpan is always on point!
watched three min of this and was like, “i bet this guy sucks” and then i googled him
Good intuition. I got caught off guard. He fooled me.
I didn't realize Michael Phelps was so into Star Wars.
L
I need Max Landis's Jar Jar movie in my life
Aden Burn We all do. Disney better make that happen.
I need his Jar Jar teaser in my life.
It's a redemption movie on so many levels. I love it.
Yes. I want this movie so bad.
The way he pitched it, I want to see that film, you got my interest, Max!!!
OBVIOUSLY he'd make it more snarky and then assault it. Just look at his previous works.
Very cool, very cool ...
Me, personally, I loved this video.
verrrrry cool.
Sardo Maitland media.giphy.com/media/kvMAkYQE8e4g0/giphy.gif
IT BROKE NEW GROUND!!!!
VERY cool
Lol, max is so perfect for this show. He's got crazy ideas and is impervious to Jenny's awkwardness
This has been my favorite episode of The Millennial Falcon. It was entertaining seeing Jenny interact with Landis, and the conversation they had about Jar Jar. I would enjoy seeing more interactions like this, since she has such a unique, onscreen, personality for extended periods like this rather than just quick 1 min interactions.
I love Max's shirt. RLM fans unite!
i saw his shirt and i clapped !!
It Broke New Grrouund!!!
He’d tell Star Wars to lose some weight and tell it to be more like Star Trek
My favourite parts of all these videos is when Jenny's façade slips and she starts laughing
Max: "Are you curious about young Yoda?"
Jenny: "NO."
Yoda: "You will be. You will be..."
Baby yoda is not actual young yoda
@@basedchimera5859 I’m sure he knows that and it was still funny 😅
@@thereisnocarolinHR i disagree
@@basedchimera5859 okay well have fun going around a full year later telling everyone that baby yoda isn’t actual yoda. WE KNOW.
@@thereisnocarolinHR just saying the joke doesn't work lol sorry
Why is this getting dislikes? This is one of the best videos on Screen Junkies in like years. Fun show and Max is a great guest.
because it's scatterbrain, incoherent noise.
Love the shirt Max.
"Nothing says i love you like a black guy holding a gun." - Rich Evans
His Dad got off light from killing three people.
Jenny: "Well that was a great discussion about Star Wars. So, now, I think it's time for you to leave."
Landis: "Leave?"
Jenny: "Leave."
Landis: "Oh, okay. Yeah, sure."
Jenny: "Okay."
Jenny: "Do I get up and go?"
Jenny: "Yes."
lmao
This has to be a recurring thing. Max and Jenny are the perfect duo. Need more footage of this ASAP.
I feel like Max Landis would try to fix the Star Wars Universe by turning up at D23 panels and shouting at directors.
Calvin James it would Improve the end result
Screen Junkies, thanks for making this exist. I could watch these two talk Star Wars for hours.
Jenny and Max played off each other well
Max your ideas are not only provoking, by get you to introspect and reflect on WHY you feel a certain way about movies/comics/shows. Thanks and keep up the pitch work!

Geeze I hope so. I love Jenny's content and I hope he left her the hell alone.
She was just as shocked as anyone.
All of these RLM references are brining to joy to my dead and lifeless soul.
This is quickly rising up the ranks of best ScreenJunkies show. That being said, Rogue One is my third favourite Star Wars film of all time! Love that movie.
I could have watched this for two hours. Four possibly.
The irony that now we've essentially gotten this story in Mandalorian and on top of that, Ahmed Best (Who played jar jar) played a jedi who protected and transported grogu in season 3 lol
Max laughing at the end KILLED me.
This is actually two of my favourite personalities just shooting the shit about Star Wars, and it's great!
I'd be cool to see Jenny on an episode of Best of the Worst. Cool, very cool.
Maybe she could talk over Mike, Jay, and Rich Evans during that episode too.
It took 12 years to make!
Loved how Max was clearly familiar with Jenny's stuff. He's an absolute treasure for doing stuff like this when he's actually in Hollywood.
"It's a manchise" 😂😂😂😂💪👍
Brian Alex Clark I really hope that was an ironic comment
Thomas, he was quoting Jenny's response when asked if the Star Wars saga is generally masculine.
Not sure about manchise, but man cheese is gross
#Man-chise
Loving this series. I just binge watched all of them these past 2 days.
I only subbed for Jenny.
i would sub, switch or dom for jenny
He just basically pitched the mandalorian
Between this and the Comic Con babes video Jenny continues to intrigue me. I have a lot of respect for what she does. I'm not convinced I enjoy watching it but maybe I'm just enjoying it a different way than other videos? Also love Max in everything he does, you can't fake passion and creativity like that.
"She's from New Zealand but she can do a perfect American accent" This kind of humor is why I like Jenny's channel. Subbed
Talking about Star Wars while wearing a "Very Cool" shirt on another channel is kinda funny. The rest of the video doesn't even matter.
Very cool... Very Cool
is this a reference to something? googling "star wars very cool" doesn't even come up with the t-shirt
Redlettermedia have a satire of "Nerd Podcast" shows that some have said references SJ.
rapchee ^ I recommend the NerdCrew videos they are super funny!
I hope he does another thing with Redlettermedia again soon.
Max's appearance on RLM is the greatest video in YT history. Never laughed so hard in my life.
Well that thumbnail has aged horribly.
Oof
I don't get it
Wait why
Aidan Xavier I guess it's just bc he sexually assaulted multiple women but idk what that has to do with Jenny, other than she is also a woman
@@splendidtorch7800 oh I guess that would do it yeah
I liked this one, fun comedic banter.
This is a fantastic episode! Love Max's passion and Jenny's personality is a wonderful mix
This looks like the beginning of a beautiful friendship...
Hmmmm
Hmmmm
She is quick witted, hilarious and brilliant.
I LOVE BOTH OF THESE PEOPLE
"Just leave...Shuffle as far as the cable permits..."
I liked dirk gently
So you are to blame.
Read this as "I dirked, like... gently"
I like Max Landis. He thinks in terms of sense and personal individual character development. I like how he sees how things could have gone but didn't.
This comment ages like milk
nix milt god damn it does....
Love the RLM reference Max!
I like Nicole's 'No and...' approach to improv
Go back to Redlettermedia and watch the new Neil Breen film. DO IT!
jenny, I really enjoy your shows. keep up the great work!
How do people still not get Jenny Nicholson?
We get her we just can't stand here.
Of course we can't stand here. This is the comment section
this ... is ... THE COMMENT SECTION!!
~clicks dislike~
I wish for these two to have a regular show together! Freaking fantastic chemistry. So hilarious!
Jenny is so funny omg
Yeah if you have the mental intelligence of a 5 year old
I like watching her. I probably couldn't stand talking to her.
Really? wow.. I was just thinking how does this boring, annoying girl have a show? It's more entertaining watching paint dry.
Andrew Park
I don’t like sand, it gets everywhere
Jenny's the perfect interviewer to handle Max's bs.
Screen Junkies made the right choice moving this show from SJ News to the main channel. Way more views and I think it'll only grow from here.
C3PO AND R2D2 SHOWED UP AND I CLAAAAAAPPED
The Jar Jar followup movie is called Earthworm Jim.
Man, I feel sorry for Screen Junkies, they have some of the dumbest subscribers. How people still aren't getting satire and sarcasm in this age is just depressing, I bet most of the dislikes are people who think The Onion is a legit news source.

People get it, they just don't like it, Sherlock.

this is the best video I've seen on youtube in a long time
Asking Max Landis how he'd fix a film franchise is the movie equivalent to asking Corey Taylor his reaction to anything metal
hahahah too true.
best vocals? singing, growling, rapping?
It's so weird that these get so much less views. This is my probably my favorite along with flick bait on the channel
max will be forever haunted by RLM
haunted? he's a huge fan of them, participated in their best BOTW episode, and wears a RLM shirt here lol
I don't mean haunted as a bad thing haha I meant it as like a good place for him kinda thing
Give whoever edited that Rogue One II movie poster my appreciation.
"Rogue One - Two" (it's the same) 😂😂😂😂😂
I could watch these two all day.
I think Rogue One is ok, but I kinda want a video of these two full on tearing into it for at least an hour.
TheNamekianClown nah... just watch Mike & Jay do it
I’d watch that.
Oh my gosh! Max Landis! And Jenny Nicholson! Together in one video! The dream finally came true!
bloody epic end to this episode and max landis really fits in with jenny`s wierd sense of humor ;)
Millenial Falcon and Max Landis. That's getting clicked on immediately. Fantastic.
VERY COOL shirt Max
I actually would love if Max and Jenny had a show together. I like their opposing energies.
Okay I'm here and ready for that Jar Jar movie
Great clash of two amazing personalities.
