From start to finish, the original Star Wars trilogy contains some of the most quotable films in history.

0:07.8

Today, we dive into some of our favorite lesser talked about lines and their meanings.

Music Welcome to Sky Talkers. Here are your hosts, Charlotte and Caitlin.

Hello and welcome to Sky Talkers. I'm your host Charlotte.

0:40.5

Hey everyone. I'm your other host, Caitlin. And welcome to this week's episode where we are continuing our quote unquote underrated lines series. And today we're talking all about

0:46.0

the original trilogy. And this was so much fun. I basically spent the last day and a half

0:52.8

rewatching the original trilogy. And you know what?

0:56.2

Pretty good movies. I got to say. Still good. Still good. Still good. Still really good. The classic

1:02.6

trilogy. The thing is the the term original trilogy, sometimes I like bristle at it a little bit.

1:09.1

If I overthink it. Yeah. If I overthink it, I think it is original, obviously. But Lucasfilm doesn't call it the original trilogy. They call it the classic trilogy. And I think that's interesting. Is this going to be your new hill to die on? Like my second trilogy, hell with the prequel trilogy? Second trilogy, first trilogy, third trilogy.

2:23.3

I know.

2:24.1

It's loaded.

2:24.4

Yeah, being loaded.

2:26.0

But I think out of original classic and first, maybe first is lesser loaded, less loaded. I don't know. I don't know. I think this is a good conversation,

2:38.3

though. Who knows what the title of this podcast is going to be? Right. Right now in our notes,

2:44.1

this is underrated lines in the original trilogy. Maybe you should record another prologue with
