    I like Captain Needa

    He had the nuts to assume responsibility in front of Vader.

    Not-so-obscure trivia: The Blue Lipstick Babe in AOTC is played by Fiona Johnson, who also was "The Woman in Red" in The Matrix. I sometimes wonder if everyone in that club scene were unmasked SW alum and Matrix crew. :p

    Given that AOTC and the two Matrix sequels were shot at Fox Studios in Sydney, Australia at around the same time, they probably were.

    I'd have to watch the movies again to make a decision, but that's a good one [face_laugh]

    Dex, or the droid in Jabba's Palace that is branding the feet of the gonk like droid. I always called him the "Boris Bot" because his faceplate reminded me of Boris Karlof from Mad Monster Party.

    This is random, but when I first saw TPM as a kid, I was wondering what this one alien who briefly glanced at Watto and Qui-Gon was thinking as he passed by. This is after the pod race, when Qui-Gon is all the way up there with Watto. (Now that I think about it...why are they up there? Lol.) It's when Watto is accusing Qui-Gon of swindling him and knowing that Anakin would win. This alien man is walking by and looked at Watto momentarily. He almost seemed like a spy or something. Just seemed odd to turn the whole body around to briefly glance at someone.

    I like Dex; I'd love to know more about him. A comic series or something would be great - his story in Clone Wars Adventures was hilarious. Not sure if cameo appearances by EU characters count? Because Aurra Sing and Quinlan Vos.

    And the sassy battle droid that has already been mentioned.

    That was the box where Watto saw the podrace. Qui-Gon went there because that's where he would find him.

    Sweitt Concorkill for me. Why was he so special that he got to sit up in the Chancellor's box in the Galaxies Opera House? I like to think that some in the Senate were suspicious of Palpatine and Concorkill was sort of spying on him. :)

    I figured. I guess Watto was so depressed he couldn't immediately hover down the stairs.

    I like random scenes on Tattooine. In AOTC, a movie that I'm otherwise not fond of, I like that droid that says, "Okie-dokie," to Anakin when he asks for it to wait. Cute voice.

    My man IG88 for sure. I was obsessed with him as a kid. When I found out he was a boss fight in Shadows of the Empire I exploded.

    The officer in ROTJ that utters the first spoken line: "Inform the commander that Lord Vader's shuttle has arrived".

    If I recall correct ROTJ was one of the first films that took advantage of Stereo audio in selected theaters and somehow that voice must've been tweaked to really drive the spatial sound. I remember that it sounded like WOW the first time I saw the movie.

    Or is someone doing a Jedi mind-trick on me?

    A decent few to choose from, but for me...

    Probably the grumpy bartender from ANH.

    Or Dex.

    Technically, IG 88 is in three scenes. He's in the scrap pile when Chewie is looking for 3PO on Cloud City and here he is helping Wuher serve drinks in the cantina:

    Too many cool one-glimpse characters (IG-88, Bossk, even Dengar etc) have technically appeared in other scenes, so let's go with one which many have difficulty pinpointing just if he ever appeared to begin with:



    (OK, he's in two scenes - he's in the background of the Rebel briefing room, and he's one of the Rebels boarding the Falcon in the hangar glimpsed from the back, but even then, I'd class his supposed appearances in percentages that amount to less than one)
