Mad Pierre enters Star Wars

Mine has to be that IG-88 was actually the brain of the second Death Star.
Either that or Boba Fett was best man at Dengar and Manaroo's wedding.

 

That the number 2187 was the title of a short film from the 60s that lucas liked..the# shows up a couple times in the sw films.In sw:se the second guy that walks in to the cantina is the guy who also animated jabba in sw:se[steve williams]

 

Bail Organa's middle name.

Prestor

 

The Gungun name for a computer:

A "Heybibbler".

 

That Salatious Crumb hoped the in flight movie on the way to Leavesden Studios would be "Raiders"

 

That Christopher Walken, and Burt Reynolds were considered for the role of Han Solo.(theme from psycho) In fact I think that Burt Reynolds actually got it and was dropped ( THANK GOD) I don't know if that is obscure but i was suprised.

 

That the names of the suns that Tatooine orbit are Tatoo 1 and Tatoo 2.

 

Oh, and Michael Pennington played Moff Jerjerrod.

That Darth Maul has 9 horns on his head.

 

hmmm...that's tough to answer. I guess mine would be that GL had played with the idea of an all Japanese cast for SW. It's kind of ironic that there are no asian people in sight until ROTJ!

Mr. K

 

Maul has 10 horns, actually. (You try living next door to the DMEB without acquiring some knowledge on the matter...)

 

That C-3PO is 112 years old. That Treat Williams was a Hoth Soldier, that Rebel fighter squadrons are made of 15 fighters. There is also the fact that Darth Vader is Lukes father.

 

Star What?

 

That 1138 you see on the battledroids comes from Lucas' science fiction film of the 60s called THX 1138. And that you can always see references to him or friend , Speilberg's other
films in all the movies(like C3P0 & R2D2 in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

 

Jedi Jinn's Com Link On Tatooine was fashioned from a ladies razor

 

That Hutts are asexual. Where is the fun in that?

 

THX-1138 was actually from 1970, not the 60's...

Actually, Admiral, Hutts are hermaphrodites. They have both sex organs. Asexual means without either sex. (They're kinda like earthworms.) I guess they just pick a sex to go by.

 

ok call me star wars dumb but,
subulba's podracers top speed is 515 mph.
umm something else...i can't remember.

Jaina Solo

 

That the snow in Hoth stop-motion photography was actually baking soda.

 

Mine is that Xizor eats Moonglow fruits which are very expensive and dangerous to eat but are quite tastey when made right. Ack, Grand Admiral Reese, Threepio can't possibly be 112 years old, he was only made 30 or 40 years before ANH.

 

That the Millennium Falcon's shielding machinery is four banks of Nordoxicon thirty-eights.

 

Moonglow: we all know how fast computers become antiquated. He's 112 in droid years.

 

I had NO idea Darth Maul had a silver stud earring. (I understand Ray Park had it, and they thought it was OK for Maul).
Did any of you guys see that actually?

An earring. Cool. I love that.
