I apologize if this is out of place or inapropriate. But I would like this to be a thread for any interesting facts, SW/lightasaber or non. And I would like to tell you that the actor who play Wedge Antilles, is the uncle of Ewan McGregor, or Obi-Wan Kenobi. Please comment,or give an interesting fact. Again, I apologize if this has already been done or is out of place.

From here (http://listverse.com/2009/09/11/12-facts-about-star-wars-you-probably-dont-know/)


Due to the limited budget the American cast members and crew (including George Lucas) all decided to fly coach class to England, rather than first class. When Carrie Fisher’s mother Debbie Reynolds heard about this she called George Lucas, complaining about how insulting it was for her daughter to be flying coach. Carrie Fisher was in the room with George Lucas when he took the call, and after a few minutes asked if she could talk to her mother. When George Lucas handed her the phone she simply said, “Mother, I want to fly coach, will you *censored* off?!” and hung up. [IMDB]

You are not going to believe this, but...
That big white thing in the sky at night?
That's no moon......
ITS A TRAP!

Well, that aside,
interesting facts...
-Liam Neesson was so excited to be in Ep I that he barely read the script.
-Alec Guinnes told Lucas that it might be better if he became a ghost,
and be more of a spiritual guide, just to get out of Ep V and VI, because
he couldnt stand the dialogs.
-Lucas messed up half of the Star Wars movies by making the Prequels
the way he did.
-The guy that did Vader's heavy breathing (which he made by recording his breathing
underwater with scubagear) allso did the voice of General Grievous
-Jabba the Hutt cost over a million dollars to make.
-and
-so
-on
-etc.

Interesting Fact: It was not illegal to be a Sith. In fact, it was protected by the Galactic Constitution. This is what made the arrest of Palpatine unlawful, for he had committed no "actual" crime.

So what about if you killed a Sith?
Would they have had to have committed crimes?

I guess... *shrugs*

A lot of the law in Star Wars still isn't really known. But it's definite that being a Sith is legal, despite how evil it truly is.

Neckbeards included? :lol:

More interesting stuff:

Twi'leks were born naturally hairless, aside from their eyelashes to keep out dust from Ryloth's harsh conditions. Any Twi'lek you might have seen with eyebrows either drew them on or had them tattooed in order to look more expressive and human.

Protip: female Twi'leks very much yum yum. *drools*

It's every guy's fantasy to have an alien with twin tendrils coming off her head as a girlfriend, right...?
