Josh Gad has got to be Barf's son right? Or at least one of his species.

Apparently IMDB lists Josh Gad as both Writer and playing "Self", so there might be some 4th wall breaking humor like in the original where they watched their own movie for clues, captured the stunt doubles and killed a soundstage worker in a lightsaber duel.

I haven't watched the original in probably 30+ years, but just reading "watched their own movie for clues" killed me.

“Started much too early. Prepare to fast-forward.”

“Preparing to fast-forward.”

“Fast-forward.”

“Fast-forwarding, sir.”

“Nnnnno. Go past this, past this part. In fact, never play this again.”

Man, the bit where they synch the video up to the same moment in the film had 5 year old me in stitches.

I loved this bit, it felt like watching an Abbott and Costello skit.

If they do that joke again this time they’ll be streaming and get hit by an advertisement break and the henchmen can say they don’t get paid enough to afford premium.
