Star Wars Quiz!

Do I get to post a question of my own now? Is that the rule?!?

 

yeah go for it DS, don't know if Lady Lucas is about.

 

OK. I'll do it in about half an hour or so. It'll give me time to think of something tricksy!

 

OK. I've thought of a decent Bank Holiday question that will make the day a bit brighter if you're stuck in work:

Aside from general recompositing, various THX amendments and the new Lucasfilm and Fox logos, can you name me eight differences between each of the original PT films and their Special Edition re-releases? I don't want amendments to different shots from the same scenes. Just the wholescale changes. OK? So I want 24 answers - eight from each film...!

Right. Get thinking!

DARK_BORE

 

I think they should have put more Battle scene in ROTJ

Plus a scene where squadron of B-wings and A-wings destroy the Death Stars main laser & one the STar Destroyers

 

But the ROTJ end battle is the finest of any SW film. No lie!

 

Well they could have made even more better so I'm hoping when George revamps them again
that he will include them.
Other Sci-fi have beaten it ie Babaylon 5

 

Hmmm

Well! I haven't seen Babaylon 5 so I'd find it hard to commment...

(Althoguh, I'm faily sure SW is bettter!)

 

Nope, IMHO, ROTJ is still be best battle sequence.


Much better then Babylon "Get the Hell out my galaxy" 5 anyway.


UKS

 

It's 'Babaylon'. Not 'Babylon'...

 

LOL

 

Whew! That was some tough trivia!! Lady_Lucas is now roaming about...

I hate to burst the bubble but to my previous question..
What was the FIRST thing Luke said to Jabba when he met him for the first time?? ...
The answer I believe is...

EXALTED ONE...isn't that correct??

 

...and still nobody gets my question...
again,in an early draft of 'empire',the character of lando is described as what?!
come on,you star wars geeks!
