Scarjo A Go-Go Episode 33: Don Jon, or, "The Escort"

This week we put a magnifying glass to Joseph Gordon Levitt's writing/directing review as he writes a very special role specifically for Scarlett Johansson in Don Jon. JGL's porn obsessed, low I.Q. gym junkie certainly keeps his hands busy in this film, putting them all over himself then all over her, but is this specially written role really all it's cracked up to be? There's only one way to find out! (Without watching the film yourself!)

StarWTF!? Episode 28: Bren Derlin

Cheers everybody! Today's episode is Major Bren Derlin, or as you may know him, the jerk that had to lock Luke and Han out of the Hoth base when he closed the doors for the night. But he was concerned about Princess Leia and the rest of the rebels safety, so he can't be that much of a jerk.

The most interesting thing about Bren Derlin is the actor who played him. John Ratzenberger, who is famously known as the know-it-all mailman Cliff Clavin from Cheers, disguised his face (sweet mustache) and voice for this role. It was a little before Cheers, but you would never know it was him.

Bren Derlin was a male Human officer of the Rebel Alliance. Bearing the rank of Major, Derlin served as the operations and security chief at Echo Base, the Alliance headquarters on the planet Hoth, under the command of General Carlist Rieekan. In that post, Derlin had to order the closing of the base door to avoid putting the whole base in risk. By doing so, however, he risked the lives of Luke Skywalker and Han Solo, two valuable Rebels. Soon after that event, Derlin served during the Battle of Hoth. During the Battle of Endor, Derlin served as Unit leader.
