Pittsburgh, PA The *NEW* Star Wars Trivia thread!

Okay, so it was asked that we resurrect this game.

I think this petered out becuase it got to hard, so NO RIDICULOUSLY HARD questions. However, if it's something that can readily be found on the official site www.starwars.com then that's okay. But it has to be easy to find. nothing you have to dig 10 pages down to get to...

So let's have fun, and keep it relatively easy.
BTW, if a question is deemed too hard by two people (please post that) then the person asking must post a different, easier question.

Once you answer you MUST wait until the person asking the question confirms your right. (Unless it is such an very easy question and an easy answer)

I'll start.

How many Star Destroyers chased the Falcon from Tatooine on it's way to the Death Star?

 

I believe the answer is 3. Han mentions that an Imp. cruiser is coing in and then you see 2 Stardestroyers and Han say hold on there are 2 more coming in.

 

Where Was Lukes Jedi aCademy located?

 

On the very same moon of Yavin, at the very same base that the Rebels attacked the first Death Star.


What is the name of the spice Han typically smuggled?

(Bonus related questions-where was it "mined" from? what did the spice do? and how could it be rendered usless?)
None of the bonus questions need to be answered, just the first regular question.

 

Glitterstim, from the mines of Kessel. If exposed to light, it became useless. Correct?

 

You are correct sir. (but what did the spice do?)
Ask away...

BTW, where have you been?

Anyway, nice to see you back. Are you going to Comicon? Read the thread pertaining to that. We're not just enjoying comicon but also a dinner after that, then a party in a hotel suite after that!

 

I wanted so much to go to comicon with "the gang" but I ended up having the kids that weekend, and can't change it.

Here's my trivia question:

What are the complete titles of the two made-for-TV live action Ewok movies?

 

The Ewok Adventure aka Caravan of Courage

and

Ewoks: The Battle for Endor

You might want to tame the questions down Brendon. This is supposed to be something we can just answer quick. I realize even my spice question was a bit hard.

So, am I right about the titles?

Why don't you bring the kids along? Lots of neat stuff for them to see.

 

Glitterstim gives the user temporary telepathic powers, I believe. (trying to use my actual knowledge w/o looking things up )

 

Those are the titles. I will tame the questions down next time I ask one, no probs. I based the difficulty on the guidelines Sal gave and the level of his first question. Sorry!

I'll just see from the next few examples what the level should be.

Okay here's an easy one...Did Greedo shoot first??? (JUST KIDDING) Here's the real question:

What was the number platform the Millenium Falcon was cleared to land on at Cloud City?

Bonus: Where was this number used in the original? (Episode IV: A New Hope for those who have to call it that)

 

it was 327.... and for bonus...
was it also the docking bay on the death star?

 

Yes, 100% correct.

Your question.

 

what species is Zam?

 

Clawdite

 

good job your turn

 

I can't resist answering if I know it, yet I must find a suitable question that's not too hard yet not too easy. lol

At the start of AOTC, Anakin and Obi-Wan are returning from resolving a border dispute on what planet. (Bonus: Name the book in which this mission is detailed.)

 

Ansion. The book is Alan Dean Foster's "The Approaching Storm."

What is Beru Lars' only spoken line in AOTC?

 

I could be wrong, but didn't she just say "Hello"?

 

Right! Your question...

 

I can't think of anything better soooooo...Where did Boba Fett make his first appearance?

 

Okay there are so many ways this can be interpreted so I'll give them all:

The very first time we saw Boba Fett was in the cartoon short in the Holiday special, however if you are only counting the movies then...

We first saw him in Empire, then Lucas went and added him later in A New Hope, so that chronologically that counts as first, THEN, he makes him a clone of Jango in AOTC, so chronologically again, his first appearance would be in AOTC.


It really depends upon your point of view and what version of the movies you go by and if you consider the Holiday special as canon...

Well Stacie, which answer were you looking for?

I'm going with the cartoon, since that was in 1978 and was the first time he was revealed to the "real" public.

 

That's why I love that question, it's so confusing! Theres three answers that are technically acceptable, but I was in fact looking for the Holiday Special. Of coursse, even if I wasn't you would have gotten it right, so...yeah...your question...

 

What ship is the predecessor to the Incom T-65 X-wing Starfighter? (Must give number designation and name of base model)

(Bonus (not neccessary to answer): what are the names of the two manufacturers who jointly produced that ship?)

BTW, this is easy, it's referenced many times in the books and if you get stumped, you can always look it up on the official site (www.starwars.com).

 

*rolls eyes* Technical questions like that are not easy.
