The Official SW Saga Trivia Thread

[Kain]

If you wanted to get technical with the way your producing your answers, would it be

Darth Plageus/Darth Sidious
Darth Sidious/Darth Maul
Darth Sidious/Darth Tyranus
Darth Sidious/Darth Vader

And it was never presented that Luke was even suggested to be a Sith, so that response is void.

[Astrotoy7]

Im giving it to Kain. Listing Master/Apprentice consistently,

@Obi & Machine Cult :
Since when the in any of the films does Luke become a sith apprentice to his father... ???

Vader made the offer in ESB, and Sidious in ROTJ. Both times Luke said "NEVER"

Q. Who was David Prowse ? What role was he originally offerred before settling for the role he played ?

mtfbwya

[The Doctor]

A: David Prowse was the guy inside the Darth Vader suit. He did not play Anakin in RotJ when the mask was taken off.
I believe he was originally offered the part of Chewbacca, but I'm not sure...

If I'm right, then PASS.

[Astrotoy7]

Yep, points to the Doc

New Question !

Q. What inspirations were drawn on when creating the look of Yoda for ESB ??

mtfbwya

[RC-1162]

the gnomes from Lord of the Rings?

[Sabretooth]

1. He was named after Buddha, since the Jedi Order was made to resemble Buddhism.
2. His face was designed after some guy in the crew. (I think it's the dude who played the puppet, or conceptualised Yoda)

There may be more, but I'm sure about the above.

There may be more, but I'm sure about the above.

The answers I was after was :
1. Stuart Freeborn. Man who created the original puppet. (Concept was actually based on drawings by Ralph MacQuarrie and GLs notes)
2. Freeborn also added elements from a famous photo of Albert Einstein, with the brow and eye wrinkles, to convey the characters wisdom...

I'll give sabre a point as he got close enough to the Freeborn answer...

Q. In which films does R2 utilise his holoprojector ? When ?

[The Doctor]

The only times I can think of are in ANH when relaying the message from Leia to Obi-Wan, in TPM when displaying the plans for the attack on the Naboo palace, and when relaying Luke's message to Jabba in RotJ.

[Astrotoy7]

correcto, Doc

mtfbwya

[RedHawke]

"Q. Name 4 characters that wear a CAPE in the saga..."

1) Darth Vader
2) Count Dooku
3) Lando Calrissian
4) General Grevious

If I'm wrong... If I'm correct!

[Astrotoy7]

Q. Which 3 movies feature a rebel blockade runner ??

mtfbwya

[Leviathan]

I'd say Episode III, IV and VI... (And why not in Episode I, as the Republic Cruiser is based on the Corellian Corvette ?...)

[Astrotoy7]

The republic cruiser is actually based on an old OT concept drawing of Ralph McQuarries ... But your answer is correct re the corvette. I havent been able to confirm if the one in ROTJ is the Tantive IV. Probably unlikely seeing it was captured by the imps and they subsequently made it appear that "all aboard were killed"... ?

Q. Where were the scenes of Luke being first attacked by the wampa shot ? (nb. It was in Norway, Im after a very specific place/location)

Q. Throughout the saga, describe 3 separate instances of where something has exited artoo via his dome ?

mtfbwya

[The Doctor]

1) When scanning Dagobah(sp?) in ESB
2) When returning Luke's lightsaber to him in RotJ
3) When he falls into the swamp on Dagobah, the little parascope thing pops up so he can make his way out.

Those are the first three that came to mind.

[Astrotoy7]

lolz...The Doc & Chase are correct(tho points to Doc only) I was actually thinking of
1) The Gadget that zaps the buzz droid in ROTS
2) spewing out mud in ESB
2) the sabre in ROTJ

Q. From what was the word "ewok" derived ?

mtfbwya

[Sabretooth]

Hah, this one's easy. "Ewok" is made by rearranging "Wookiee", since Ewoks are supposed to represent smaller wookies. I believe Lucas dropped the i, e and o to make the word sound small and sweet, just like the Ewoks themselves.

Since I'm feeling rather confident, here's a question:

Q: How old was Boba Fett in Episode II?

[Commander Obi-Wan]

Originally Posted by Sabretooth

A: 10 years old

Q: Who was the Ewok who stole the speeder bike as the rebels were infiltrating the shield bunker?

[Leviathan]

If I'm not wrong, it must be Paploo...

*slaps sabre with wet fish*

your confidence is not warranted sabre, as your answer is incorrect. Lucas named the Ewoks after the MIWOK native american tribe from Northern California.

An Endor Strike Team Commando took a Biker Scouts Uniform when acting as a decoy during the bunker raid. I thought the "excluding Luke & Han" would have given it away lolz
