One of the best things theStar Warsfranchise has going for it is all the stupid names.

Everything is named something insane, and often for the worst reasons.

Obi Wan Kenobis home planet is namedStewjonafter Jon Stewart.

Some names are dumb for no reason.

Kit Fisto, Salacious Crumb, Therm Scissorpunch, Mercuiral Swift (no relation to Taylor), Porkins.

The list goes on and on, like an opening exposition crawl.

And, of course, the genre of song played at the Mos Eisley Cantina: jizz.

We all know the music that Figrin Dan and the Modal Nodes play is called jizz.

But what new entries in theStar Warsextended universe presuppose is this: Maybe its not?

So its not inappropriate anymore, and furthermore, shut up.

The die-hard jizz fans werent having it.

Jatz actually predates jizz as the name of a space music genre.

An argument could be made that, maybe, Figrin Dan plays jizz and Max Rebo plays jatz?

Its just our stupid earth ears that cant tell the difference.
