Writer/Director Jay Lender (Phineas and Ferb, They’re Watching) returns to join the guys for a lively debate, one or two Hot Buttered Rums, and a few tumblers of Jared’s Star Wars-inspired cocktail, the Blue Milk of Tatooine. Are Porgs the new white meat? What was that thing Luke milked? What if they filmed a chase sequence with a bunch of space ships stuck in cruise control? Spoilers lie ahead, so be warned.
