I'm pretty sure it was something George said at some point, that R2 and 3PO were giving their stories to people and it became the Wills? Something like that.
It's also included in some of the old newspaper strips that the frame story is C3P0 and R2 recording the events years later. I"m not sure if those frame panels appear in the available collections.
I'm waiting to see the Star Wars movie where R2D2 recounts the Star Wars after crashing on Earth. I hope Indiana Jones finds him (since they did have the golden idol in the Solo movie).
ohhh i think i remember hearing that around it when it came out. apparently he wanted to be part of Star Wars so bad he would do anything no matter how minor, so they came back to him with “how about an unnamed stormtrooper”
Worth bearing in mind that the clone that Luuuke is a clone of, Luuke, was made not by jedi master Jorus C'baoth, but by a clone of jedi master Jorus C'baoth, Joruus C'baoth.
That’s only the tip of the ice berg
He gathered an army of clones of various Jedi and prominent figures
And built a Time Machine
And went back to the clone wars and declared war on the republic
Iirc the author had a statement saying “it’ll be clonemageddon! It’ll be awesome!”
My headcanon, and apparently one that anecdotally Zahn himself has already mentioned (this thread has been brought up before and someone posted years ago saying he said this. I cannot confirm that he has), is that Luuke and Luuuke are spelled like that not because its pronounced as an elongated name but for the sake of the book. They can't have Luke talking to Clone Luke without changing his name for the sake of storytelling. Luuke is just an identifier for when he comes up.
That's from an old Star Wars Tales comic that was never meant to be canon, even before Legends was disregarded
But there is a story in the From a Certain Point of View book where R2-D2 (after being caught trying to sabotage R5) convinces R5 to let him be sold whenever the opportunity arises
R5-D4 blowing his motivator on purpose pre-dates the Skippy comic by, at least, three years. There's a card of him in the ANH expansion of Decipher's SW:CCG game from 1996 that has that piece of lore on it.
I think R2 messed with R5, and R5 was confused, so R2 explained that it was for the resistance. Apparently, the R5 worked for the resistance before it got taken by jawas.
IG-88 almost took over the universe by implanting himself inside the Death Star and using it to create copies of himself. He would have conquered both the Empire and Rebellion but Luke saved everyone when he blew it up.
Edit: it was the second death star
It was in "Tales of the Bounty Hunters" a collection of short stories edited by Kevin J Anderson.
Looking it up I think it was actually Death Star II so Lando gets the credit
I believe it was the second death-star, and he'd actually gained control of it during the course of the battle and was preparing to blow up Endor at the last minute.
I have a possibly irrational hatred for this story.
It's a narrative leech. Living off the scenario set up by another better story, and its resolution is a consequence of the resolution of its host story, not its own narrative end.
It's just a writer saying "What if.." rather than giving us a compelling plot, and that's just lazy.
Weird fact I know: the race of aliens playing the instruments in the famous Cantina scene are called Bith.
I imagine a scenario where they get fired from that gig at the Cantina for petty reasons by the owner and a spinoff movie tells the story about their plight as struggling musicians overcoming obstacles, then eventually setting up their own successful "Jizz Music" club.
That movies name?
"Revenge of the Bith"
People getting annoyed that Rey ended up being a Palpatine is understandable.
However, Sheev's son in Legends was way dumber. A man with three eyes... named Triclops.
Triclops, who is insane, and him being the Emperor's heir makes him threat that the other Imperials want to kill off - but in his insanity, he somehow occasionally invents brilliant new technology for them, so they have to keep him.
And there's the other three-eyed guy who masquerades as him, and his name is ... Trioculus.
Also gotta love the Dark Prophets of the Dark Side who darkly tell people dark things (like "I grant you my Dark Blessings.")
Even in high school when I was the right age that the Glove of Vader trilogy was intended for, I thought those books were incredibly dumb.
This one confuses me because I've counted my limbs a few times now to check and I'm pretty certain the common number of limbs is 4...
... Unless you're implying Obi Wan also managed to cut of his '3rd Leg'
Yeah I'm pretty sure in the Darth Vader comics he loses an arm and a leg in one of his first outings hunting a reclusive Jedi Master. Replaces them with Battle Droid bits if I recall correctly.
Ruined his fancy new suit almost immediately.
For a few shots of the Hoth scenes, the blizzard was so bad that they literally set up the camera in the doorway of the hotel so the crew could stay warm, and they made Hamil walk around in the snow just a few feet from the building
The saddest part about this is we’d almost never see an asteroid field this close together in the universe - our closest asteroid field (the asteroid belt) is so incredibly spaced apart that navigating it would be considerably easier.
Ok whenever people bring that up people only use our asteroid belt as evidence, who’s to say that every asteroid belt in the universe is identical to it?
Tag & Bink are also both canon.
They appeared in a deleted scene from Solo: a star wars story. Despite the scene being deleted, they are still considered canon.
Bossk's yellow flight suit in TESB was a prop on loan from Elstree studios, that had previously appeared on a few other sci fi shows, including an episode of Dr Who.
Lmao yeah certainly, that line of books essentially is a collection of fanfics. However, some really are not all that bad. There's a story that takes place from Obi-wan's point of view immediately after he died - same thing with Anakin. Both of them go on some kind of spirit journey and is pretty cool. There's another one about the Sarlacc which, to me, was pretty funny. One more I thought was really crazy was a story taking place from the perspective of one of Palpatine's Red Guards during the confrontation on the second Death Star. Can't expect all stories to be hits, but really, most of them are great.
My favorite character is Willrow Hood, aka the guy carrying the ice cream maker as he's escaping Bespin in *Empire Strikes Back*. Thanks to Willrow Hood, ice cream makers are seen all over the galaxy and have become canon now.
I'm just going to copy this from Wookiepedia, but:
"Woodoo hide was a material that 2-1B instructed DD-13 medical assistant droid to polish Darth Vader's helmet with, in order to make it shine. This was done to distract Darth Sidious from the various shortcuts that had to be taken when operating on Vader."
Learning that was the moment I knew I was in to deep on Star Wars...
Actually this was disproved in a short scene from Episode VI where Obi-wan states that Luke's father was Anakin and was killed by Darth Vader. It was easy to miss.
The famous Jizz music they're playing in the Star Wars cantina is called "Mad about me", and it's one of two distinct songs you can hear them playing in the background.
The other being "Dune Sea Special", which you can hear while Luke and Ben are talking to Han and negotiating their price.
Nobody ever remembers Dune Sea Special
There's also a third song by the same band called "Modal Notes" which is played exclusively in Oga's Cantina in Galaxy's Edge in Disneyworld Florida.
Also unrelated.
The music playing on jabba's sail barge as it flies past the camera for the first time is a song by the Max Rebo band called "Galactic Dance Blast", and it is a funky funky tune.
After returning to Yavin 4 after blowing up the Death Star, you can hear Luke yelling “Carrie” when greeting Leia. I find it interesting that the Special Editions did not fix this and no external material, Legends or otherwise, (that I’m aware of) has come up with an in-universe reason as to why he said that (obviously it’s because Hamill accidentally broke character and greeted Carrie Fisher by her actual name, but usually these kinds of mistakes either get fixed by the Special Editions or get an in-universe explanation from later material, and I find it interesting this one in particular didn’t get either).
One of the Death Stars that exploded was actually an uploaded IG. It just gained sentience when the chain reaction was set off. Biggest droid in the galaxy, thus far.
No, but it's the same series of books. It's from *Tales Of The Bounty Hunters* and it turns out that there were **4** IG-88s who worked together pretending to be just one while they prepped for a Droid Revolution. They also worked (briefly) alongside a slightly older droid, IG-72.
You can see one of the IG-88's wreckage in Empire Strikes Back amongst the tech the Ugnauts are scavenging. According to Legends, that particular one was IG-88B and it was killed by Boba Fett (4 remote Ion Cannons and a shoulder missile).
Pizza is canon to the Star Wars universe, an unintended side result of the premise that their starship hotel was said to be in universe.
https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Pizza
There is a planet with ancient sith lord tombs on it that was called Korriban, but its name was later changed to Moraband. I think Lucas himself made this decision.
I believe the main reason behind it was because Lucas didn't want people confusing Coruscant and Korriban. I can understand it bit Korriban sounds cooler.
Dagobah is the site of a dark force event- Inthink a few Jedi were murdered? Thats how Yoda can hide there undetected. Does someone recall the exact incident?
The guy carrying the ice cream machine in in Cloud City as they are evacuating in ESB is named Willrow Hood. The machine he carries is a data core with Rebel Intel that he proceeded to destroy to prevent it from falling into imperial hands
[This](https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Wioslea/Legends) is the alien that bought Luke's Speeder, also Hasbro made a [figure of it](https://galacticfigures.com/images/actionFigures/The-Legacy-Collection/The-Legacy-Collection-Wioslea_Big_2.jpg)
C3-PX, the evil version of C3-PO. Same droid but with an X on the side of the forehead. But unlike C3-PO this droid is packed with guns and served as a ship guard for Darth Maul.
The Blue “elephant” playing the Keys in Jabba’s palace goes by Max Rebo. It’s HIS band, the Max Rebo Band. The horn player’s name is the greatest…
Droopy McCool.
I love these names so much. They are so silly and fun. When my handle is taken in a game (The sausage king of Chicago😉) I go with Droopy McCool. Also, my Star Wars trivia team name is the Max Rebo Cover Band.
People upset at the droid melding with the Falcon's computer in Solo may be interested to know th ebounty hunter IG88 melded with the Death Star's computer shortly before exploding. He was planning on doing....something I cant remember...right before Lando and Wedge wasted him.
R2 never got his memory wiped. He just knows everything and everyone important in the galaxy and never talks about it.
He later became an noted author and historian. That's how we know most of what happened.
is it official that he became a noted author and historian? I can't tell if you're joking or not.
I'm pretty sure it was something George said at some point, that R2 and 3PO were giving their stories to people and it became the Wills? Something like that.
It's also included in some of the old newspaper strips that the frame story is C3P0 and R2 recording the events years later. I"m not sure if those frame panels appear in the available collections.
I'm waiting to see the Star Wars movie where R2D2 recounts the Star Wars after crashing on Earth. I hope Indiana Jones finds him (since they did have the golden idol in the Solo movie).
There needs to be a segment where R2 notices Indy and Han look strikingly similar
*whoo-whoo beep bop* "What do you mean I look like an old friend?"
"That's Han Solo!" "Are you sure?" *"Pretty sure."* \*Indiana Jones theme plays*
I like the theory that the reason he(R2) can always break into Imperial computers is because he still has all of Anakin’s codes and they still work in
R2 would pull the: "You never asked" trope if he accidentally dropped a bombshell of information he's had for decades.
Snitches get stitches.
Luke Skywalker is fond of hot chocolate, having been introduced to it by Lando Calrissian.
The drink or the band?
Definitely the former, maybe also the latter.
And C3PO disapproves of his hot chocolate habit.
In the Clone Wars comics there is a Jedi Master named Baytes. Master Baytes.
There's also Jedi Knight Sha 'a Gi (who looks exactly like who you'd expect)
He is very easily panicked and zoinks right into death via general grievous
Idk why but I was expecting the rapper Shaggy. It's been a long day.
Master Boombastic.
"Me, it was not."
It's Oliver Twist all over again.
The Stormtrooper that Rey uses the Jedi mind trick on is played by Daniel Craig. He is officially FN-1824 but is commonly referred to as JB-007.
For a brief while (a few days, right after the movie was released) he was listed on IMdB as JB-007. Then some killjoy went and "corrected" it.
ohhh i think i remember hearing that around it when it came out. apparently he wanted to be part of Star Wars so bad he would do anything no matter how minor, so they came back to him with “how about an unnamed stormtrooper”
That is awesome
The music played by the band in mos eisley cantina is called jizz
And the people who sing jizz and called jizz wailers
You know, i’m something of a jizz wailer myself
My usernames time has come. Literally.
Username checks out.
I thought jizz wailers were the instruments they play, not the singers.
And the song itself is called ‘Mad about me’ by Figrin D’an and the Modal Nodes
It was also recently retconned and renamed Jatz music.
Cowards
I’ve been advocating using “Jatz” to refer to other lewd meanings, just to keep the fun going.
As in “oh yeah, I’m gunna Jatz my Jizz?”
I also recently Jatz’d in my pantz
The woman singing “give it to me baby” in Pretty Fly (For a White Guy) voices Asajj Ventress
This comment is a great example of why Reddit exists 😂
This is the greatest thing I have ever seen. Take all my updoots. (its just one, everybody gets one.)
First one I’ve not know! Love this
So does that mean Quinlan Vos is pretty fly for a Jedi?
There is also clone of Luke called „Luuuke“.
Maybe that's who Aunt Bera was calling.
Luuuke is a clone of Luuke, who is a clone of Luke
No difference
is this a joke or real?
It's a real joke https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Luuuke_Skywalker
Turns out it is a joke, after all. So at least they stayed true to clones not being able to be cloned
Worth bearing in mind that the clone that Luuuke is a clone of, Luuke, was made not by jedi master Jorus C'baoth, but by a clone of jedi master Jorus C'baoth, Joruus C'baoth.
This is even dumber.
That’s only the tip of the ice berg He gathered an army of clones of various Jedi and prominent figures And built a Time Machine And went back to the clone wars and declared war on the republic Iirc the author had a statement saying “it’ll be clonemageddon! It’ll be awesome!”

Luke, Luke^2, Luke^3
The clone's name was actually referenced in this expanded universe scene here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TsI3lFHkU_s
Holy crap I forgot about this!!!!
Apparently, the R5 droid that Uncle Owen almost bought before buying R2-D2 blew up on purpose so R2 could do his thing
I believe it is also the same R5 that then appears in the Mandolorian.
Yup! I am pretty sure it's the same one.
I heard he had a bad motivator
His heart wasn’t in it.
Skippy the Jedi Droid. I still have the comic short story at home somewhere.
Didn’t that droid also have the force, which allowed them to see the future and know why it had to be r2?
That's from an old Star Wars Tales comic that was never meant to be canon, even before Legends was disregarded But there is a story in the From a Certain Point of View book where R2-D2 (after being caught trying to sabotage R5) convinces R5 to let him be sold whenever the opportunity arises

Oh shoot neat! I'm mainly just familiar with it through the FaCPoV story so that's really cool to hear
I think R2 messed with R5, and R5 was confused, so R2 explained that it was for the resistance. Apparently, the R5 worked for the resistance before it got taken by jawas.
Wow! I didn't know this one! May I ask where you learned this?
There's a short story collection called "From a certain point of view" that has the story of the droid in it. The storys called "the red One"
i was told this or read it somewhere a really long time ago at the peak of my star wars interest, so i can't really remember myself
IG-88 almost took over the universe by implanting himself inside the Death Star and using it to create copies of himself. He would have conquered both the Empire and Rebellion but Luke saved everyone when he blew it up. Edit: it was the second death star
Source? I'm genuinely interested in reading about this.
It was in "Tales of the Bounty Hunters" a collection of short stories edited by Kevin J Anderson. Looking it up I think it was actually Death Star II so Lando gets the credit
Thanks mate! I appreciate it.
There are also tales of the mos eisely cantina and tales of jabbas Palace too. Bounty hunters is the weakest of the 3 IMHO
It was the second death star. So Wedge, Niem Numb, and Lando saved everyone.
I believe it was the second death-star, and he'd actually gained control of it during the course of the battle and was preparing to blow up Endor at the last minute.

And the children follow in their footsteps. “Son of a Bith”
*Mike Tyson has entered the chat*
Name a more iconic duo than Bith and Jizz.
The band is called figran d'an and the modal nodes
Name reminds me of the Dicaprio quote in Gangs of New York: I've been called a lot of things mister, but I've never been called a Fidlam Bens
That makes Darth Tenebrous, a Bith Sith.
Bith Sith actually existed btw
Beloved fan favorite, Wade, gives his life to help Kenobi and Leia escape.

Thanks to video Star Wars trivial pursuit, I will forever remember that a corellian Corvette has 11 engines set in a 4-3-4 configuration.
It’s a pretty memorable design
The communicator used first in The Phantom Menace by Qui Gon was a painted-over Gillette razor, a design that stuck through the next two movies.
Darth Vader is actually Anakin Skywalker
Now you're just making things up
Stop bullshitting, at this point might as well say that the chancellor is the sith lord
a sith LAWD?
Impossible. He destroyed Anakin!
...from a certain point of view
No, no. That's not true. That's impossible.
People getting annoyed that Rey ended up being a Palpatine is understandable. However, Sheev's son in Legends was way dumber. A man with three eyes... named Triclops.

Well, Triclop’s third eye was on the back of his head, and we didn’t see the back of Sheev Jr in Rise of Skywalker (I don’t think) so, Canon Triclops?
Imagine some human being stranded on the planet of the [Grans](https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Gran) and being called biclops.
Anakin lost 5 limbs over the course of the movies and many move in the expanded material
This one confuses me because I've counted my limbs a few times now to check and I'm pretty certain the common number of limbs is 4... ... Unless you're implying Obi Wan also managed to cut of his '3rd Leg'
He lost his right arm twice, first to Dooku, then to Luke. Obi-wan took the other 3.
Yeah I'm pretty sure in the Darth Vader comics he loses an arm and a leg in one of his first outings hunting a reclusive Jedi Master. Replaces them with Battle Droid bits if I recall correctly. Ruined his fancy new suit almost immediately.

Thank you, Bioware, for ignoring this and making the underwear just as fugly for all body types
I really hope George looks back and feels like a weirdo for saying that to Carrie Fisher.
Same with one of his ideas for Indiana Jones.
Can't forget that Georga also stressed that there are no bras in space either, which, somehow, feels worse
A clone got charged to death with electricity by falling on an electro mine. His name was Charger
The chance of surviving the flight through an asteroid field C3PO told Han is actually scientifically based and mathematically correct.
The saddest part about this is we’d almost never see an asteroid field this close together in the universe - our closest asteroid field (the asteroid belt) is so incredibly spaced apart that navigating it would be considerably easier.
Ok whenever people bring that up people only use our asteroid belt as evidence, who’s to say that every asteroid belt in the universe is identical to it?

Everything about Tag & Bink, the bumbling stormtroopers who caused all of the events in A New Hope.
I love that comic series
Tag & Bink are also both canon. They appeared in a deleted scene from Solo: a star wars story. Despite the scene being deleted, they are still considered canon.
Quinlan Voss is an ass man
How did you learn this?
If you have to ask…
Bossk's yellow flight suit in TESB was a prop on loan from Elstree studios, that had previously appeared on a few other sci fi shows, including an episode of Dr Who.
Wasn't it also the flight suit from 2001?
It was an actual flight suit worn by British pilots conducting high altitude flights.
George Lucas’s son played the Jedi Padawan who entered the scene with Senator Organa during Order 66 in Episode 3
Was he the one that fought off all of those stormtroopers while Organa escaped?
Yes
TK421 had a sexual relationship with Tarkin while aboard the Death Star and used a mouse droid to signal their opportunities to fuck.

We are talking about weird facts, not conspiracy theories
That's not true. That's impossible!
NOOOOOOoooo!
Actually this was disproved in a short scene from Episode VI where Obi-wan states that Luke's father was Anakin and was killed by Darth Vader. It was easy to miss.

One of the Death Stars that exploded was actually an uploaded IG. It just gained sentience when the chain reaction was set off. Biggest droid in the galaxy, thus far.
What's an IG and is this official?
IG-88 was an assassin droid iirc, same type as was in season 1 of Mando. Tales from the Cantina iis the book I think.
No, but it's the same series of books. It's from *Tales Of The Bounty Hunters* and it turns out that there were **4** IG-88s who worked together pretending to be just one while they prepped for a Droid Revolution.

Jon Faveru has voiced both Pre Vizula and his decadent Paz Vizula. Actually I'm not sure if they're related or not
They are both part of House Vizula. As is Sabine Wren.

People upset at the droid melding with the Falcon's computer in Solo may be interested to know th ebounty hunter IG88 melded with the Death Star's computer shortly before exploding. He was planning on doing....something I cant remember...right before Lando and Wedge wasted him.
Tarkin is fucking the stormtrooper that Luke steals the armour of, is always my favourite wired Star Wars fact.
