They hate George Lucas because he cast Sam Jackson as Mace Windu. They hate George Lucas because he made an Ewok's eye's blink and they hate him because he suggested Greedo shot first.

THE OPENING CRAWL TEXT OF EVERY STAR WARS CRAWL Each crawl's prologue gives a quick explanation of the most immediate events leading up to the start of the film. While the text is crawling up the screen, John Williams' famous Star Wars theme is blasting its familiar notes, creating an attention-grabbing start to the film.

WHY DO OBI-WAN AND VADER FIGHT SO SLOWLY IN A NEW HOPE In terms of moviemaking, Star Wars was filmed & produced in 1976 and featured a finely aged Alec Guinness clashing swords with a muscle man in a big heavy black suit. No one expected the energetic acrobatics of Errol Flynn or Zorro. This was a sword fight using 'light swords' and on-screen special effects that never ever been done before. 46 BITS OF TRIVIA FROM THE RISE OF SKYWALKER Russel's character is called Zorri Bliss. This is the first Star Wars trilogy where all three films were released in the same decade. The first teaser ended with audio of Emperor Palpatine cackling with laughter. Actor Ian McDiarmid did not record a laugh for that, it was used from old recorded audio. McDiarmid obviously plays theresurrected
WHY DID DARTH VADER TURN TO THE DARK SIDE OF THE FORCE The original trilogy films added small iterations to the back story of Vader but it was a back story we hardly knew much of. ANH told us he was a pupil of Obi-Wan Kenobi, who during this time was seduced by the dark side who killed Luke's father.

DUNE'S INFLUENCE ON STAR WARSOct 30, 2019
HOW 'DUNE' INFLUENCED GEORGE LUCAS' FIRST STAR WARS FILM SCRIPT We have covered many times that George Lucas soaked up a thousand different inspirations from books and films that he wove into the grand tapestry of Star Wars. We've looked at war films,
country and westerns,Akira Kurosawa
and even the novels of Edgar Rice Burrows. We have however always shied away somewhat from Frank Herbert's Dune.
Let's fix that.
Forget that Dune was made into a movie in 1984 by David Lynch, it's the novel that had the influence on Lucas and his development of the original Star Wars script or "Journal of the Whills" as it was once titled. While there should be no doubt about the influence that it had on Lucas, we cannot find a single article or quote by the man wherein he refers to Dune. But make no mistake, the comparison of some of the ideas in both movies are unmistakable... Indeed Herbert himself has been said to have jokingly formed the "We’re Too Big to Sue George Lucas Society" when he recognized elements from his own works and many other writers in the film. And let's be clear, Star Wars does not have the same story as Dune. It took elements and themes and paralleled them but not the directplot.
If you wanted to be fairly uncharitable you could argue that A New Hope is basically Akiro Kurosawa's The Hidden Fortress set on Dune.SPICE UP YOUR LIFE
In the first draft of Star Wars, the drug ‘spice’ was very much a central theme of script. Lucas's first version of Princess Leia was not fleeing from the Empire with the stolen plans for the Death Star but rather, holding a cargo of the drug 'melange' spice...the later script noted Han Solo smuggledof spice...
And let's not forget that young Luke Skywalker once had the belief that his "father didn’t fight in the Clone Wars, he was a navigator on a spice freighter.” HERE'S A COMPARISON OF SOME DIRECT LIFTS AND INSPIRATIONS DUNE'S INFLUENCE ON A NEW HOPE * Princess Leia’s name is arguably inspired by the Princess Alia. * Star Wars features a dry dessert planet called Tatooine. Remind me what kind of planet Arrakis was in Dune? * The Jawa sandcrawler Jawas was possibly inspired by the mining vehicles Arakin’s used. * The Skywalker family were moisture farmers in a similar vein as the 'dew collectors’. * The 'Jedi Mind Trick' is very similar to how the sisterhood of the Bene Gesserit can use _The Voice _to influence the actions ofothers.
* In ANH, Luke Skywalker practices his lightsaber training against an automated training remote. This seems a direct lift from the part where Princess Alia works on her sword skills against an automatedtraining dummy.
* Spice mining...
THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK WAS INFLUENCED BY FRANK HERBERT * In Empire Strikes Back, the Millennium Falcon just manages to escape from the jaws of giant, space slug that was living in a space asteroid. In Dune, there are giant sandworms a giant one of which causes a bit of similar havoc when one attacks the Duke's vessel. * In ESB, the villain turns out to be hero's father. In Dune, the villain out to be hero's grandfather * Alia can connect her mind to her brother Paul Atredies physically. Kinda like what happens when Luke calls out to Leia after he's foughtDarth Vader.
HOW RETURN OF THE JEDI WAS INSPIRED BY DUNE * Return of the Jedi’s Jabba the Hutt looks like a giant slug with a fat face and arms. This character may have been inspired by The God Emperor of Dune , Leto Atreides the Second who funnily enough was a 15-foot long slug. That novel was published in 1981, two years before the release of ROTJ. We do appreciate that Jabba was originally conceived in ANH as a human. * Indeed, a lot of the whole Jabba The Hutt Palace scenes appear to have been inspired by the Children of Dunesequel.
* The sand desert where the Sarlaac Pit resides is called the DuneSea
Mortal Engines author Philip Reeve shared his viewson Dune
influencing Star Wars when he was discussing the definition of 'spaceopera':
"Star Wars was, of course, a love-letter to the genre, full of motifs which come straight out of pulp fiction and the rockets hips’n’ray guns serials of 1930s cinema. It also borrows heavily from Frank Herbert’s novel Dune, which I read when I was about twelve, mad about Star Wars and looking forsomething similar.
I was far too young to get Herbert’s mix of Orientalist fantasy, desert ecology and flaky 1960s mysticism but, as with Star Wars, that combination of swords and starships appealed to me. " LET'S NOT FORGET LAWRENCE OF ARABIA HAVING AN INFLUENCE ON STAR WARS Both Dune and George Lucas were inspired by the story of Lawrence of Arabia which was a spiritual journey of sorts that took place in a desert. Lucas was most definitely inspired by the David Lean movie and use shots from it for both the original and prequels films. We say this to show that though the book came before the film, they both share common inspirations. Indeed, 19 other movies went into the creation of Star Wars.
SPEAKING OF THE GREAT BARD... We should acknowledge that a lot of Shakespeare's plays influenced Frank Herbert as he developed Dune - so while many of the family dynamics in Dune and the 'saga' of it all, can be compared and contrasted with Star Wars, one could perhaps argue the driving force of Shakespeare ripples underneath the surface quite strongly in Star Wars regardless of Dune's influence. Indeed, to dismiss Shakespeare's work as an influence on George Lucas would be a mistake. Though Lucas may not have been directly taking paragraphs out of Shakespeare (unlike which he did for Tolkien!)
his admiration of The Forbidden Plant exposed him to what was basically The Tempestset in
space. Given Lucas's love of films by Akiro Kurosawa,
he most likely saw 'Ran', which was a remake of King Lear!
Shakespeare actually has a lot to answer for - it was his line from Othello that inspired the name of the Mortal Engines novel!
EXTRA FOR EXPERTS:
One: We mentioned above that David Lynch directed the movie versionof Dune.
We think it's a pretty good science fiction movie, though a patient watch is needed. You know how things come full circle? George Lucas actually met with Lynch to discuss the possibility of Lynch taking the director's chair for Return of the Jedi! Lynch turned him down which led to Richard Marquandhaving a crack.
Two: There's a large feeling out there that Lucas was perhaps inspired by the film script of a Dune film that never got made by director Alejandro Jodorowsky. That this
version of Dune got so close to being made is the stuff of legend and can be seen in the documentary called 'Jodorowsky's Dune'.
Three: Denis Villeneuve is remaking of Dune. He's well placed to do so following the success of his Blade Runner sequel and the fantasticArrival.

↠ 27 WTF STAR WARS FACTSOct 23, 2019
Luke Skywalker always took his bath time very seriously... 27 RANDOM AS STAR WARS FACTS THAT YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW Here's some random as nuggets of trivia and facts about the Star Wars movies. As the legend and lore of Lucas's far away galaxy grows, these factoids become even more awesome! * In a New Hope, Leia was kept captive on the Death Star in cell number 2187. This was a deliberate choice as 2187 is the year that the Lucas directed film THX 1138 ,was set.
* In Return of the Jedi, listen to the music very carefully as Darth Vader picks up the Emperor and throws him down the Death Star shaft. This is the only time the Jedi theme music plays over a shot of Vader, reflecting his return to the light side of the Force and him actually being the Chosen One.
* Darth Vader was actually the only Star Wars film character to losean arm three times
!
And both his legs as well... Obi-Wan Kenobi got 3 of his limbs in Revenge of the Sith! He did have the higher ground after all... Luke followed up with a hander arm sever in Return of Jedi. * The Bantha milk drank by Luke and Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru in A New Hope is blue! It's become the stuff of Star Wars legend so much so, it was used in Rogue One as well.* Anakin Skywalker
really
is the ‘Chosen one’.
While Yoda
and
Obi-Wan Kenobi may have thought a mistake had been made in the reading of the prophecy, Anakin was the one who actually killed Sith LordPalpatine
by throwing him down the Death Star’s reactor shaft in Jedi and thus restored balance to the Force. If you pay careful attention to the music when this happens, the Jedi theme plays briefly, perhaps signaling something profound... * Harrison Ford famously was never intended to be Han Solo, he was just hanging around after American Graffiti and was helping other actors read their lines as Lucas was in the casting process. Eventually, Lucas wised up and realized Harrison already had the part down cold. * Princess Leia was subject to one of the most famous ad-libs in cinema history - that being Han Solo's response to her declaration of love - "I know". Harrison Ford apparently made it up at Irvine Kershner's suggestion. Leia got to return the line in Return of Jedi during the Battle ofEndor.
* Carrie Fisher appeared in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back . This movie was a weird Kevin Smith homage to Star Wars and featured an appearance by Fisher as a nun and Mark Hamill as a parody of himself. Carrie's cameo was the one that got the laughs.... _do you follow the good book?_ * A lot of people forget this but Fisher appeared in the classic movie When Harry met Sally . She was the 'friend' of Sally who ended up marrying Harry’s best friend. See, there is life outside of Star Wars! Fisher also had a cameo in the Blues Brothers! * Carrie Fisher wrote an actual bestselling novel Postcards from the Edge and screenplay for the film based on her writing. The book was about her drug addiction and her relationship with her mother. Fisher has managed to parlay her writing talent with a few turns at playing script doctor for a few Hollywood movies, most notably Rene Russo'sOutbreak.
* Yoda’s species has never been mentioned. In official records, he is simply an ‘unknown species’. He'll always be Kermit's uglycousin to us.
* For the prequel film Attack of the Clones, Yoda was performed by Frank Oz. The next two prequels featured a CGI Yoda and the DVD release of Clones saw a CGI version replacethe puppet.
* While many think Yoda had Darth Sidious beat in his famous duel in Revenge of the Sith, it was actually Mace Windu,
a former student of Yoda who firmly beat the Sith Lord (of course Anakin came in and ruined it all..). * The original drafts for Star Wars show that the Skywalker family was actually called Starkiller. Indeed the drafts featured a General Starkiller and didn’t focus on the young moisture farmer from Tatooine. His son was called Deak. He eventually became Luke. * During Revenge of the Sith Bail Organa and Yoda step into the hallway of Organa's ship and have a nice conversation about becoming rebels or something. It's the same ship that Darth Vader boards to capture Princess Leia Organa in the start of A New Hope. * Does the name “Annikin Starkiller” sound familiar?
That's the character's original name for the Skywalker line. * During the assault on the Rebels ice base on Hoth, it is Hamill who speaks the line, “the first transport is away!”. This line is later used as a reference to Star Wars in Mass Effect 3.
* Carrie Fisher had to stand on a box for most of her scenes with Harrison Ford in the original Star Wars films because she is a foot shorter than him. This was done so the actors would look better in the frame shot together. * Master Yoda is 66 cm tall. As a comparison, R2D2 stands taller at96 cm!
* In the very short lived T.V. show Firefly, a model version of Han Solo frozen in carbonite can be seen in many places - the props department would move it around as a running gag. Presumably, this was kind of like how Superman appeared in every episode of Seinfeld.
* Princess Leia never actually gets to 'meet' Obi-Wan Kenobi.
She sees him from afar when she's escaping the Death Star and Obi-Wan is about to let Darth Vader kill him but that's it. Unless you count Obi-Wan being present for her birth in Revenge of the Sith... * Harrison Ford is the only actor to have appeared in films directed by all three of these directors: Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and Francis Ford Coppola.
* Yoda's original name was 'Minch'. Glad Lucas changed it? * Everyone assumes Luke only appeared in the three original Star Wars films. Think about it for a moment and you’ll realize Skywalker appears as a baby at the end of Revenge of the Sith. He, of course, appeared for 30 seconds in The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi making it 6 film appearances. * In A New Hope, Darth Vader has only 12 minutes of screen time! Talk about screen presence. Want more trivia? Try out some Rogue One facts and points about themaking of the movie

HOW THE FORCE AWAKENS & RISE OF SKYWALKER USED RALPH MCQUARRIE'SCONCEPT ART
Oct 21, 2019
If there's a name as synonymous with Star Wars that's not an actor or George Lucas, it's Ralph McQuarrie. He was the first illustrator that George used to bring his ideas to 'life' by way of McQuarrie's exceptional drawing and painting talents. Ralph did conceptual art design for all three original films. Star Wars as we know it would be a completely different beast if a different artist was used to draw the Millennium Falcon. For the Prequel trilogy, a different lead concept designer was used(Doug Chang
).
However, with the advent of the Star Wars Rebels TV show, Lucasfilm took a look at the original designs McQuarrie did in the past that did not necessarily see the light of day on the silver screen. This use of McQuarrie's work was continued into the development of The Force Awakens and some of those elements made it on to the screen. Here’s what we’ve noticed as being directly inspired by the worksof McQuarrie.
Our favourite is the X-Wing design. Note the split engines! Here's Poe Dameron posing with his X-Wing: On the planet Jakku, there’s a opening entrance to the trading post where Rey gets her supplies from. It’s a direct lift from McQuarrie's work - I think this was from the Return of the Jedi designera.
When we first step inside Maz Kanata’s Castle we track a furry looking green tailed fellow: He’s known as 'X' and was once a suggestion for what the Greedo character in A New Hope could look like: There's also some more minor examples of costume elements that may have made their way on to Rey's outfit and some Snow Stormtroopers (there were cut from the movie). You could even argue his designs influenced the Star Killer base look.
McQuarrie brought life to R2D2 and C3PO and it was his drawings of them that George Lucas used to help shop his Star Wars stories around the film studios as he attempted to get his space opera made. That design work has also perhaps helped to inspire the design ofBB-8.
Check out an original sketch idea and compare it to the final version of BB8 and decided on that one for yourself! EXTRA FOR EXPERTS 2: JJ Abrams also use some McQuarrie inspiration for THE RISE OFSKYWALKER as well.
The Emperor's new 'throne' was taken from an early sketch design that was never put into production for Return of the Jedi:3 comments

31 FACTS AND TRIVIA FROM THE RISE OF SKYWALKEROct 21, 2019
TRIVIA ABOUT THE RISE OF SKYWALKER The Rise of Skywalker is set to close out the Star Wars saga as we know it. Here's some of the production details, facts about the movie and callbacks to the other films! * Emperor Palpatine is back from the supposed dead and played againby Ian McDiarmid
* Lando is back and gets to fly the Falcon with Chewie. * Carrie Fisher's role following her death was made possible by recycling scenes from The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi and using some fancy CGI applications * BB-8's new friend is called D-0 * Naomi Ackie, is making her Star Wars debut as Jannah. It is speculated that she is the daughter of Lando Calrissain. * The first teaser trailer used the same phrasing as The Phantom Menace did - "Every generation has a legend" was repeated. TPH had the line "Every saga has a beginning" whereas TROS shows its intent with "Every saga has an ending". * This is the ninth and final Star Wars composed by John Williams. This is an incredible feat. * George Lucas once envisioned that C3PO and R2D2 would be the only characters that feature in every film in the saga - turns out this would be true. Anthony Daniels also becomes the only actor to appear in all the films as Kenny Baker died. * After George Lucas's 4 director credits in the Skywalker saga, only JJ Abrams will have made more than one film. * Colin Trevorrow was originally hired to direct the film after his success with Jurassic Park but was fired and JJ was asked to comeback.
* While the working title of the film was 'trIXie' it was also referred to as Black Diamond for a time inpreproduction.
* Keri Russel has a long term working relationship with JJ - she was the star of his show Felicity and had a role in Mission Impossible III which JJ directed. Russel's character is called Zorri Bliss. * This is the first Star Wars trilogy where all three films were released in the same decade. * The first teaser ended with audio of Emperor Palpatine cackling with laughter. Actor Ian McDiarmid did not record a laugh for that, it was used from old recorded audio. McDiarmid obviously plays the resurrected character in the film. * The desert planet featuring the Aki-Aki is known as Pasaana. The scenes for this location were filmed in the Wadi Rum desert in Jordan. * The beasts the Finn and Jannah ride are called 'orbaks'. * Emperor Palpatine's 'Throne' was inspired by a sketch from RalphMcQuarrie
- the artist who did all the original trilogy concept designs forGeorge Lucas:
* The Rise of Skywalker is set one year after the events of The LastJedi.
* Carrie Fisher's scenes as Leia are cuts taken from The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi which are mashed up with some clever CGIapplication.
* Naomi Ackie plays 'Jannah'. Is she Lando's daughter? * Richard Grant plays Allegiant General Pryde. * The snow planet is called Kijimi and is the local for the'Thieve's Quarter'.
* There are six Knights of Ren,
other than Kylo.
* Rey uses a training remote - a clear call back to Luke's use ofone in A New Hope.
* Kylo Ren's repairing his mask rather than replacing it is a reference to the Japanese art of Kintsugi , also known as Kintsukuroi. As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise. * The Ghost ship from Rebels makes an appearance with the GeneralFleet
* In the scene where C3PO has his memory wiped, you can see a Prequel Era Battle Droid in the background. Roger! Roger! * This is the first Star Wars film where Carrie Fisher recieves 'top billing'. Post humously at that.* Wedge Antilles
was played by the original actor Dennis Lawson, who perhaps quite improbably is Ewan MacGregor's real-life uncle!
* Running at 155 minutes, The Rise of Skywalker is the longest StarWars film
.
* This film is the only Star Wars film to reference a character'sactual name.
* The Death Star II wreckage is not on the 'small moon of Endor" from Return of the Jedi, rather it a different moon called Kef Bir.1 comment

15 BEST 'GOLDEN' QUOTES FROM C3PO FROM STAR WARSOct 21, 2019
An early concept version of C3PO by Ralph McQuarrie THE BEST QUOTES BY C3PO FROM STAR WARS You could say they are comedy gold... He's one-half of the droid due every Stormtrooper is looking for, he's protocol droid, C3PO. Until actor Anthony Daniels brought C3PO to life, every other sci-fi robot had come across as a hokey attempt to get a cool robot on screen. The comedic role in Star Wars fell to C3PO and R2D2. Just think Robby the Robot intoning 'Danger, Will Robinson, Danger' from Lost in Space and you'll know what we're getting at. That said Robby totally influenced the C3PO character. Daniel's turn as a robot made robots fun watch. He made 'human cyborg relations' mean something. More often than not the joke was on C3PO as he missed 'the big picture stuff' - does he have aspergers? Some might say he simply had to suffer the torment of being R2D2'sbest mate.
_'Oh dear!'_
But really, Anthony Daniels and Kenny Baker were one of the movie industry's best comedy duos. Amusingly, we've read that Daniels and Baker didn't really get along in real life! Did you know though that Lucas decided to tell the story of Star Wars through the eyes of these two robots, an idea he took from Japanese film director Akira Kurosawa's Hidden Fortress?
Either way, C3PO's lines of dialog from the Star Wars movies served him well and are endlessly quotable. Here's a taste of his best quotes: * "I SUGGEST A NEW STRATEGY, ARTOO: LET THE WOOKIE WIN." - Aboard the Millenium Falcon, R2D2 is beating an agitated Chewbacca so C3PO suggests the strategy to placate the hairy goof. As an aside - that game was never actually finished. In The Force Awakens, Finn accidentally turns off the Dejarik board and the game begins exactly where R2D2 and Chewbacca left off! * "SIR, IT'S VERY POSSIBLE THIS ASTEROID IS NOT STABLE." From Empire Strikes Back. Turns out Golden Rod was right and the Falcon had been parked in the throat of a giant space worm. * "DON'T YOU CALL ME A MINDLESS PHILOSOPHER YOU OVERWEIGHT GLOB OF GREASE!" From A New Hope in response to a cheeky comment by R2 as they escape theTantive IV
.
* "R2 SAYS THE CHANCES OF SURVIVAL ARE 725... TO ONE" - A New Hope * "WAIT. OH MY ! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE. I'M BACKWARDS YOU FILTHY FURBALL" Chewbacca has put together C3PO wrong after he was torn aparton the Cloud City
in
Empire.
* "WE'RE DOOMED" C3PO cries out as Vader attacks Leia's ship inEpisode 4.
* "R2-D2, WHERE ARE YOU?" Once again our robot has lost his bestfriend.
* "R2-D2, IT IS YOU, IT IS YOU!" Once again our robot has found hisbest friend.
* "EXCUSE ME SIR, BUT THAT R2-D2 IS IN PRIME CONDITION, A REAL BARGAIN" C3PO plays salesman to encourage Luke Skywalker to purchasethem both in ANH.
* "IF I TOLD YOU HALF THE THINGS I'VE HEARD ABOUT THIS JABBA THE HUTT, YOU'D PROBABLY SHORT CIRCUIT" C3PO to R2 in Jedi * "DIE JEDI DOGS! OH, WHAT DID I SAY?" C3PO having an out of body experience in Attack of the Clones. * "R2D2! YOU KNOW BETTER THAN TO TRUST A STRANGE COMPUTER!" How prescient was C3PO in Empire? * "GOODNESS! HAN SOLO! IT IS I, C-3PO! YOU PROBABLY DO NOT RECOGNIZE ME BECAUSE OF THE RED ARM..." In The Force Awakens,
the Golden Rod demonstrates a severe lack of emotional intelligence as Han and Leia meet each other for the first time in years. * C3PO also made a very short cameo appearance in Rogue One.
While standing next to R2D2 on Yavin base he complained "SCARIF? THEY'RE GOING TO SCARIF? WHY DOES NOBODY TELL ME ANYTHING?"From The Last Jedi:
* Leia Organa: Wipe that nervous expression off your face, Threepio. C-3PO: "OH, WELL, I WILL CERTAINLY TRY GENERAL... NERVOUS?"* "MASTER LUKE!"
THE RISE OF SKYWALKER QUOTES BY C3PO * "TAKING ONE LAST LOOK SIR, AT MY FRIENDS" The key thing to bear in mind is that the success if most of these jokes and quotes are the relationship between Kenny Baker and Anthony Daniels in bringing their characters to life on the silver screen. Many times C3PO is completing the punch line after the set up given by R2D2 thus making them one of the greatest comedy duos to ever gracethe silver screen.

9 TIMES CHEWBACCA HELPED SAVED THE DAY IN STAR WARSOct 17, 2019
IS CHEWBACCA THE GREATEST MOVIE SIDE-KICK EVER? For a walking carpet, Chewbacca is arguably one of the best ever sidekicks in movie history. As Han Solo's friend and co-pilot, he's had many adventures and seen most sides of the galaxy as a result. This also means he's been in the thick of the action - and through 9 Star Wars films, he's saved the day more than once. Here are a few occasions where the world's coolest Wookie has turned things around for our heroesREVENGE OF THE SITH
When Chewbacca helped Yoda escape Kashyyyk after Order 66 was executed with extreme prejudice by the Clone Troopers. This single act ultimately meant that Yoda was able to train Luke in the ways of theForce.
SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY Freeing the Wookie slaves from their confines under the Pyke Syndicate was a defining moment for Chewbacca as a character. He showed he had true, selfless heart. And then he turned the dial once more by deciding to go with Han Solo because having freed the Wookies, he’s now going to focus on his new ‘tribe’ - Han.A NEW HOPE
Chewie flew the Falcon while under attack from the Tie Fighter attack during the escape from the Death Star Returned to the Rebel's attack with Han to give Luke the assist in the Trench Run, which ultimately saved the Rebels on Yavin. THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK Chewbacca discovered that C3PO went missing on Cloud City and rescued him and then put him back together, albeit, slightly miss-arranged. Not the first time that had happened to Golden Rod though… Not quite saving the day but choking Lando as a revenge for his 'betrayal' must have felt pretty good. THE RETURN OF THE JEDI The rescue of his dear friend Han Solo was one of the riskier gigs he had undertaken. Chewbacca helped infiltrate Jabba’s stronghold by pretending to be the prisoner of Bosch - no mean feat when you know you are walking into certain death if all parts of the plan do notcome off.
A classic moment was when Chewie turned up in an AT-ST at the bunker to help open the door - it was a nice fake out and signaled that effectively the Rebels were gonna win.THE FORCE AWAKENS
After Kylo Ren killed Chewie's best friend, Han, he went on a rage kill - he took out a million Storm Troopers which allowed Ren and Finn to escape, he was also able to set off the bombs to do enough damage on Star Killer base so that Poe Dameron could do his mission. This was perhaps the first time in a Star Wars film that we had seen the true 'warrior' skill we thought he had. That heavy shot on Kylo Ren with his Bowcaster ultimately helped Rey beat Kylo in their saber duel .THE LAST JEDI
Wooking the Falcon alone, Chewie took on Kylo Ren's considerable air forces to give the Rebel's a fighting chance. His actions drew away the Tie Fighters which pretty much allowed every Rebel a second chanceat life.
More favorite Chewbacca moments: * Complaining about being cold when outside the Star Killer base * The infamous space chess scene with C3PO and R2 * When Chewbacca is about to lose Han to carbonite - Han says ““Save your strength. There’ll be another time. The Princess. You have to take care of her. You hear me? Huh?” Chewie is able to get over his personal distress and see the wisdom in what Han was asking him - and he did just that - which mean Han knew that no matter what happened to him going into that frozen block, his love would be looked after by his best friend. And Chewbacca did just that. * The hug Chewie gives Han on their reunion in the prison cell in Jabba’s Palace is one of the most heartwarming moments the two haveshared on screen.
* “Chewie, we’re home” Need we say more? * Busting down Luke’s door in The Last Jedi. Enough pissing around Luke, I’ve been through a lot of shit. Time to talk! He's actuallyvery quotable

HOW POE DAMERON'S "I KNOW" CHANGED REY'S CHARACTER FOREVER IN THELAST JEDI
Oct 17, 2019
In Empire Strike's Back, Leia told Han she loved him and he replied,"I know".
That line has become the stuff of legend,
especially so when Leia got to say the quote back to Han in Return ofthe Jedi.
The Last Jedi script writer and director saw fit to re-use Harrison Ford's immortal line in a new context, being when Rey first meets PoeDameron.
Recall the plot events of The Force Awakens. Rey never actually meets Poe Dameron face to face. In a quick turn around at the end of the movie, she flies off with Chewbacca and R2 to find Luke and bring him back to sort out that 'Snoke taking over the world' business. Finn and Poe get to continue their bromance but that's it. So, in the last spoken scene of The Last Jedi, Poe and Rey finally meet after what has been a long week or three for each other. Rey (and Chewie flying the Falcon) has just rescued Poe and the remaining Resistance Rebels from the cave on Crait and they are now safely on the Millennium Falcon. Did you know the First Order reallyhate that ship?
Here's the conversation:Poe: Hi, I'm Poe.
Rey: I'm Rey.
Poe: I know.
I have to admit, on first viewing of TLJ, I did not pick up on the call back to the classic Han Solo linehe
said to Leia before he was frozen in carbonite. It's a nice moment, but what does it really mean? Prior to this conversation, the events of the movie have settled that anybody can become a legend. Luke saw his fate or destiny and accepted it and became one. Rey on the other hand is bluntly told by Kylo Ren that her parents were drunks who sold her and she indeed admitted that her parents were'nobody'.
So who is Rey then?
When Poe acknowledges that he already knows who she is, he is saying she is not nobody, she is Rey.He _knows_ her.
Rey will never be a nobody.She is somebody.
She is legend.
She is Rey.

TRIVIA FROM THE HAN 'SOLO' PREQUEL FILMOct 1, 2019
TRIVIA FROM THE HAN 'SOLO' PREQUEL FILM Despite its fairly commercial and critical success, the Han 'Solo' movie will always be the Star Wars movie where the original directors got fired and Ron Howard came in and saved the day. Given that drama and the need to rework the movie, there's plenty of trivia about the making of the movie to satisfy even the keenest of Star Wars fact fans... Scriptwriter Jon Kasdan went pretty left fieldin places!
* Alden Ehrenreich was the first actor to audition for directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. They saw many other actors but Alden made a lasting impression. * The script was written by Lawrence Kasdan and his son Jon Kasdan. This means that Lawrence has had a hand in writing four Star Wars films (Empire, Jedi, TFA and this one). * Phil Lord and Christopher Miller were fired by Kathleen Kennedy,
the head of Lucasfilm, only three weeks away from finishing principal photography on June 2017. They are in good company as Kennedy also removed Colin Trevorrow from The Rise of Skywalker project. Instead, JJ Abrams is back for a second turn at directing to finish the storyhe started.
* Mother Proxima is a White Worm, that name is taken from the Bram Stoker book, The Lair of the White Worm. * Miller and Lord's removal paved the way for Ron Howard to finish the film and even reshoot many scenes. This means that this is the first Star Wars film to have ever been directed by an Academy Award winner for Directing. Howard won the Golden Gong for A Beautiful Mind. George Lucas was nominated for the award with A New Hope, which means he was the first Oscar-nominated director of Star Wars when he directed The Phantom Menace. * Ron Howard famously turned down George Lucas's offer to direct ThePhantom Menace
.
He also famously defended the movie and its young star.
Howard had previously directed Lucasfilm's Willow production. Howard, of course, starred in the George Lucas film, American Graffiti, andits sequel.
* When Han pulled the eel from out of his pants, this was a nod to Indiana Jones and the last Crusade where River Phoenix does the same with a snake. It's a nod to the fact Alden was replacing Ford, as Phoenix did the same in that movie at the begging. Lawrence Kasdan also wrote the Indiana Jones films so it's a great reference. * This is the second Star Wars anthology movie to be made, following the release of Rogue One. It was intended to be the third but Josh Trank's supposed Boba Fett movie was delayed after he left theproject.
* The fighting style 'Teras Kasi' was originally in Rogue One (Saw trained Jyn to fight in that style) but it got cut according to scriptwriter Gary Whitta.
* Is the fifth Star Wars prequel. * Solo refers to Chewbacca as being a moof milker - Solo uses the same insult in The Force Awakens when he says "Hey! Some moof-milker installed a compressor on the ignition line!" The battle on Mimban was inspired by Stanley Kubrick's, Paths of Glory.
* The second film to not have a light saber fight. * John Howell composed the film score. He's an experienced composer and has an Academy Award nomination for his How to Train Your Dragon score. This means Howell is only the third composer on a Star Wars film after John Williams and Michael Giacchino (Rogue One). * Woody Harrelson was picked over Christian Bale as Solo's mentor, Beckett. Solo is the second time he has been in a Ron Howard directed film. The first was EdTV.
* While some fans have guessed that Solo, is presumably the movie that Josh Trank had been hired to direct until he was removed from the job due to rumored poor on and offset performance during the ill-fated Fantastic Four reboot, this is not the case. Trank's film was likely a Boba Fett story - either way Kathleen Kennedy has confirmed they changed the order of the Anthology films, confirming that Trank was not directing the Solo movie. * Dryden Vos' home base was not originally a ship but an island fortress. It would have featured Lando racing through a series of canals but the idea was dropped as it would have been too hard to getit filmed well.
* There was a fourth member of Beckett's team called Korso but the character was cut in the editing room. You can actually see a few shots of him in the Mimban sequences. Korso was to be killed early on so that Becket would see value in replacing him with Chewbacca. * The working title used during filming was "Red Cup" a reference to the plastic red Solo cups that are popular for drinking beer from at keg parties. The theme of the Imperial March can be heard playing on the recruitment film featured at the beginning of the film before Han signs up to theEmpire.
* The job on the Conveyex originally featured the rescue of a band of criminals destined for prison, not Coaxium. Jon Kasdan said the idea was they would walk away wordlessly after their rescue but turn up in a potential sequel to rescue Han and Chewie from a tight spot. * First live action Star Wars film to not feature C3PO or Arto DeeToo
* Michael Kenneth Williams was originally cast in the film and shot scenes, but amid the reshoots, he was unable to return to the set and his role as a CGI character was removed. Instead, Paul Bettany was brought in by Howard and the role was filmed in person. Bettany had a major role in Howard's A BeautifulMind
so they already had the connection. Bettany is also quite popular at this time due to his role as Jarvis and Vision in the Avengermovies.
* 30 odd years since Howard directed Warwick Davis in Willow, he directed him again in yet another cameo performance in a Star Warsfilm
.
* This is Joonas Suotamo's second full gig playing Chewbacca after his first turn in The Last Jedi. Suotomo played Chewbacca officially as a body double in The Force Awakens - it is speculated he did any parts where Chewbacca was walking, this was due to the ill health (bad knees) of the original Chewbacca, Peter Mayhew. * Dryden Vos has a set of Mandalorian Battle Armor in his collection on his yacht. This is the same style of armour made famous by bountyhunter Boba Fett.
* The movie establishes that Chewbacca is 190 years old. * The Golden Idol (Fertility Idol) from the opening scene of Raiders Of The Lost Ark can be seen sitting on a table in the meeting room of Paul Bettany's character Dryden Vos. It's a tribute to Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones and of course as the original Han Solo. * Michael Kenneth Williams took part in the initial round of filming, however, was unavailable for reshoots which meant he was replaced with Paul Bettany as Dryden Vos. * Tobias Beckett's character was in part inspired by Long John Silver in Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island. Silver had a relationship with Jim Hawkins and the Solo / Beckett relationship mirrors that. In the same vein, scriptwriters also likened the relationship to that of Val Kilmer's and Bobby De Niro's characters relationships in Michael Mann's Heat. * Emilia Clarke made her name as the 'Mother of Dragons' in Game of Thrones - her appearance in this film means she is the tenth actor from that series to have a part in Star Wars - many of those roleswere cameos
,
however Clarke's role is a starring part as Qi'ra, a love interest forHan.
* This is the first Star Wars film to not use the word 'Jedi'. * It spans 6 years, meaning it has the longest time frame of any Star Wars movie (The opening scene from Rogue One excluded...) * It's the first Star Wars film to not feature a Skywalker of anykind.
* Warwick Davis reprised his role as Weasel from The Phantom Menace.
He played the same character as a member of Enys Nest's gang ofmarauders.
* Did you spy the dice in Han's land speeder? They are the ones that make it on to the Falcon. They become a minor plot point in The Last Jedi and can be seen in a deleted scene of The Force Awakens. * Beckett's sudden but inevitable betrayal at the end is meant to rhyme with Han returning to save Luke at the end of A New Hope. Jon Kasdan says that in both movies the older, wiser character had to reluctantly leave and come back suddenly. The difference being the betrayal compared to Han proving himself a hero. * Val mentions 'Bossk'.
This is the bounty hunter seen in the line up of hunters during The Empire Strikes Back. * This film was Lawrence Kasdan's fourth screenwriting credit for aStar Wars film.
* Enfys Nest's character nameleaked
due to promotional material slipping out. She's a pirate that leads the gang known as the Cloud-Riders. * Lando's "cape closet" was an idea from the original directors. The scene with Han and Qi'ra was a nod to a similar scene Han and Leia had in the avionics room in The Empire Strikes Back. * In The Rise of Skywalker, Billy Dee William's wears a costume very similar to Lando's 'yellow suit' from this fill which is a great callback.
* When Han is caught in the mud during his first encounter with Chewie, his pose is very similar to the one of him in the frozen block of carbonite in The Empire Strikes Back. * The creature the Falcon encounters in the Kessel Run is called a Summa-Verminoth. It was inspired by the notion that it was to be aLovecraft monster.
* The planet Mimban which Han find himself on was first referenced in the first Star Wars extended universe novel, Splinter of the Mind'sEye
.
* The return of Darth Maul was obliquely hinted at in the movie. The name Crimson Dawn, the artifacts that Vos had collected in his study and Qi'ra's use of Teras Kasi.
* HAN SHOOTS FIRST.
The movie also made a lot of references to the other movies. Want to know more facts and trivia about Star Wars movies?
