Whoa :shock:

Fun Fact:

Source
Hidden/Spoiler:
In the years following the Stark Hyperspace War, the Trade Federation became increasingly threatened by pirate and mercenary attacks on outlying trade routes. This led to petitions to the Galactic Senate to allow the Federation to arm its transport vessels to ward off such assaults. The armaments of the Federation were continually increased, but still its Neimoidian overseers did not feel safe. In addition, Viceroy Nute Gunray had entered into a clandestine pact with Darth Sidious, the result of which was the creation of a military force for the Trade Federation.

I didn't realize that it was commonly thought that he said "Luke, I am your father". I always thought it was "No, I am your Father". Which is thus followed by the worst acting on the Original Trilogy. "NoooooooOOOOoooOOOo!!!!!"

Fact:

"Return of the Jedi" was originally going to be named "Revenge of the Jedi," but George Lucas decided that "revenge" wasn't a Jedi emotion.

It's a shame that they had already printed Revenge on everything, so he didn't actually save anything, since they had to re-print Return.

Correction though, it was $937.26 American currency I'm pretty sure. :lol:

Wilford Brimley
Diabeetus. Apparently, Wilford Brimley played a Star Wars character.

I own the Endor episodes on a recorded VHS. Upon retrospect, I ask why.
Seriously though, what was with the Power Ranger-esque villains?


Fun Fact 1: The main cast of the original trilogy never appeared together again in another movie, except for Jay and Silent Bob, where both Carrie Fisher and Mark Hammil were present but not in the same scenes.

Fun Fact 2: Mark Hammil later went on to become a voice actor, with his most well known role being The Joker. This is eerily prophetic, because if you combine his first and last names and remove the "M" in Mark and the "mil" in Hammil you get "Arkham," the name of the asylum where the Joker and other Batman villains are imprisoned.

If Billy Dee Williams counts as "The main cast" then you could also add Fanboys. Because both Carrie Fisher and Billy Dee Williams were present, but again, not in the same scenes. Another fun fact about Fanboys, William Shatner makes an appearance as well. Fanboys is in my top ten favorite movies of all time.

That was an awesome show, makes the new Batman: The Brave and the Bold look like crap (and it is).

I knew about that but you should mention that it was Palpatine's clone. And its Dark Jedi not Dark Jedis.
