    Lately, I always thought that it was weird that Stormtroopers were having casual conversations like that. I thought they were supposed to be clones with no life or interests. It almost seems like they have a normal social life outside of the Death Star.

    Isn't it supposed to be that Stormtroopers aren't all clones, that they could also be humans who chose to enlist? I mean, in TALES FROM THE MOS EISLEY CANTINA, we learn that the Stormtrooper who says, "Look, sir, droids" is a human. In that case, I could see them having a "life" when they're not on duty, just like in our military service.

    maybe its a weapon model of the Imperial Shuttle, cause the only thing i see different through the fuzzy picture is a lazer gun or something under the body of the ship

    No, the Skyhopper can only fit one person, while the Shuttle can hold many. The Shuttle is much, much bigger than the skyhopper.

    Like I said, the T-16 is an Incom Skyhopper. It holds two people, and the heavy duty laser cannon underneath is for like a police force.

    That's what I'm not sure about. I've never read any EU and even if I did, I would only go by what the official films told me. But you could be right. They could still have enlisted humans and that would mean they could have a social life too.
