Anyone ever heard of a fan film , "IMPS"? It's pretty decent for a low budget production with manageable dialogues revolved around the lives of imperial storm troopers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHJkxEVENPI

Honestly the EU is dumb as poo poo but I love what they did with Porkins. Turns out the fat X-wing pilot dude was a kickass smuggler or some poo poo who was too fat for his X-wing so he had the settings all wrong.

Some jackass was really inspired to try to develop a lovely pun joke that lasted barely enough time to bother remembering, into a 'kickass smuggler' backstory? This is kind of pathetic.

Why is Porkins in the Lego x-wing? There's an R2 droid and a Luke, but instead of Wedge or Biggs or Garvin Dreis there's Porkins lol http://shop.lego.com/en-US/X-Wing-Starfighter-9493

I wonder if Porkins's actor knew that his character was named Porkins and he just needed the money back then, or if he just got a role listed for "Space pilot" and then learned after the fact that George Lucas was making fun of him.

Well yeah the prequels are stupid and kinda go against a lot of poo poo the original movies put in place. Also a Porkins action figure got made because there was a Star Wars fan encyclopedia that I love called the Red 6 Archive or something like that and they petitioned for it. Don't know if the site is still around. Groovelord Neato fucked around with this message at 21:15 on Dec 23, 2014 |

Little kid looking for a toy to ask Santa for Xmas, sees the row upon row of leftover toys since its Xmas eve. He looks behind all the Luke sky walkers and Han Solos and Darth Vader and looks disappointed. His parents grow confused. Don't you want these instead? Pointing to the famous characters. He shakes his head. I'm sorry son, why don't we ask Santa for one of these aliens instead? Maybe this man from cloud city with the ice cream maker? He's popular, right? No, all I want is the fat x-wing pilot. All my friends have him, he's really popular. Well I'm sorry son, there doesn't seem to be one. He tearfully pulls out a piece of paper, looks down at the god tier that only has one name: Jek Porkins, and looks a few lines down to Tier 1a. He looks over once more and sees that little green alien that shot at Han, knowing he's got a rough year ahead of him.

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Celot_Ratua_Dilquote:Celot Ratua Dil was a male Zelosian smuggler. Sentenced to a life of hard labor on the prison planet Despayre for theft, he managed to escape to the Death Star, which at the time was being built above the planet. He lived there for nearly two years, falling in love with the Twi'lek Memah Roothes. quote:Once aboard the Death Star, Ratua assumed the alias of "Teh Roxxor" and hid in plain sight. Pretending to be a civilian contractor who built garbage bins, he created a makeshift home for himself in an unused trash compactor. Wow.
