Cincin, OH The trivia thread... For Star Wars buffs of all ages!

Ok, since no one has been able to get the speederbike/swoop question yet, I'm adding another 10,000 points to it's value. I think maybe i'll keep doing this until somebody gets it. Maybe I'll unveil the answer as a Christmas bonus or something. hmmm.....

 

Wow, I'm out of it for a couple of days and everyone gets delusi... Oh, I guess not.

Well it looks like I missed a bit of stuff, what with going back to work and all.

*waves* Hi, Gay-LenKenobi!!!

Let's see if I can come up with a hum dinger of a question...

Which Alliance commander was put in charge of the X-wing starfighter group after Red Leader bought the farm during the Battle of Yavin?

Oh, what the heck. I'll give the person with the correct answer 5000 Points!

 

I'm going to go with Luke Skywalker. The group soon became Rogue Squadron shortly after.

 

Surprise! Red Leader didn't actually leave Luke in charge. He only told Luke to get his group ready for their attack run.

Any more guesses?

 

It's 4:30 on a Saturday, I've already started drinking, and I'm gonna go with the too obvious guess of - Wedge Antillies? Since it wasn't Luke, it had to be either him or Biggs right? But even if it was Biggs, he didn't really hold on to that title very long now did he?

 

I'm so sorry, but Biggs and Wedge are both incorrect answers. Now I can see where you'd get that idea, but really, it wasn't either of them.

Keep guessing! You'll scratch your head when you see the answer.

Here's a hint: His name was not mentioned in the movie at all.

 

Well, let's just start guessing Rogues. How about Wes Jansen? Am I getting warmer?

 

Keep guessing!

 

Um, could it be Hobbie Klivian?

 

Can you answer these?? Go for it!!

1) Does Kit Fisto die in Episode II?

2) Why did Senator Padme end her reign as Queen Amidala?

3) What planet did Obi-Wan get captured on in Episode II?

4) Name the three beasts that Padme, Anakin and Obi-wan have to fight in the arena?

5) The two main cloners that Obi-Wan mets with are Taun We and who else?

6)Who says, "I am programmed to understand human behavior?"

7)Who ends up with the power over the senate towards the end of Episode II?

8)How many times does Captain Typho make an appearence?

9)What color was the beverage Padme brings to Anakin after he killed the Tusken Raider's??

10)Besides regular battle droids what was the name of the other, larger, grey battle droids??

 

My Answers:

1) Does Kit Fisto die in Episode II? No.

2) Why did Senator Padme end her reign as Queen Amidala? She had to; Naboo's government is ironically set up so that one ruler cannot be in office too long (looks like Palpy bypassed that!)

3) What planet did Obi-Wan get captured on in Episode II? Geonosis

4) Name the three beasts that Padme, Anakin and Obi-wan have to fight in the arena? Acklay, Nexu, and Reek.

5) The two main cloners that Obi-Wan mets with are Taun We and who else? Lama Su.

6)Who says, "I am programmed to understand human behavior?" C-3PO.

7)Who ends up with the power over the senate towards the end of Episode II? Palpatine.

8)How many times does Captain Typho make an appearence? I believe 2- escorting the decoy to Coruscant, then escorting Padme to the refugee ship departing back to Naboo.

9)What color was the beverage Padme brings to Anakin after he killed the Tusken Raider's?? Blue (milk)???

10)Besides regular battle droids what was the name of the other, larger, grey battle droids?? Super Battle Droids.

 

And now MY Answers:

1) Does Kit Fisto die in Episode II? No.

2) Why did Senator Padme end her reign as Queen Amidala? Queen on Naboo is an elected office, her (4 year?) term was up although the people wanted to amend the law to allow her to rule longer

3) What planet did Obi-Wan get captured on in Episode II? Geonosis

4) Name the three beasts that Padme, Anakin and Obi-wan have to fight in the arena? Acklay--the big six legged crab thing, Nexu which is some strange combination of a cat and a rat with a tail that splits in two, and Reek which looks a whole lot like a triceratops with a bullring.

5) The two main cloners that Obi-Wan mets with are Taun We and who else? Lama Su.

6)Who says, "I am programmed to understand human behavior?" C-3PO.

7)Who ends up with the power over the senate towards the end of Episode II? Palpatine.

8)How many times does Captain Typho make an appearence? 3 escorting the decoy to Coruscant, in Padme's appartent when the Jedi arrive. then escorting Padme to the refugee ship departing back to Naboo.

9)What color was the beverage Padme brings to Anakin after he killed the Tusken Raider's?? Blue milk of course

10)Besides regular battle droids what was the name of the other, larger, grey battle droids?? Super Battle Droids supplied by the techno union if I am not mistaken...reguardless they are not built by the Geonoseans
