At least Disney are being respectful of his memory. wookieepedia posted:The Porkins Belly Run was a flight maneuver taught as a training basic to the pilots of the Resistance around thirty years after the Battle of Endor. It was named in honor of the venerated pilot Jek Tono Porkins, who flew for the Alliance to Restore the Republic and lost his life during the Battle of Yavin, in which the Rebellion successfully destroyed the Galactic Empire's first Death Star. lol Belly Run cuz he got a fat belly.

But he was in Raiders in the Lost Ark, Batman and Superman 4, so had better longer roles. And if he did conventions I would have paid the poo poo to get a pic with him. RIP Porkins. Edit: gently caress me, he was the monk in Blackadder 2. NWS

Obviously if you're getting a sci-fi branded fridge there's only one option. Smeg is an old British brand and yes, they have done tie ins with Red Dwarf.

Most "lore" has always said Jawas are only on tattoine and not spacefaring apart from the rare individual, but that's always been dumb, of course they would be spacefaring.

If only they'd cast Herzog as Qui-Gon Jinn. Lucas: "Hm. Yeah. So this guy has a double-bladed lightsaber. You're going to have a fifteen-minute long fight sequence and-" Herz-Og Jinn: "No. Zeir fight is emotional. I vill stare at him and dare him to approach us, for I know him to be a coward." Lucas: "Hm. Well. We need to have a bunch of special effects." Herz-Og Jinn: "I vill cast my lightsaber to ze floor and trample upon it, for ze force is my true ally. A true Jedi needs not zuch primitive devices." Lucas: "Hm. Has somebody got my coffee?" Herz-Og Jinn: "I see now vere you got ze idea for Jabba, peering across time as you did at your own future self." Lucas: "Hm. What? Oh. Did I forget to say action?"

In the movies they were reclusive scavengers who sold junk that they found. All of their poo poo was dingy and in disrepair, the sandcrawler was full of garbage and whatever working droids they had were probably found that way. They don't seem to be intelligent enough to build or even pilot a space ship, so I guess we could assume that a bunch of jawas showed up at mos eisley and were like "our boss is an rear end in a top hat please take us to a new desert planet, here are some spacebux"?

Not to rag on you or anything, but this post is doing the same thing that people in this thread constantly complain that Star Wars does, which is assume that whenever the movies show a specific case, it must be totally generalized to the entire rest of the setting. Obi-wan wears earth toned robes when we meet him therefore all other Jedi wear earth toned robes in the prequels. All Hutts are gangsters, all mandalorians are bounty hunters, etc. My point is that maybe these guys in ANH are just a bunch of troglodyte grease monkeys who live in some lovely desert on some lovely planet because they’ve got a good racket going there and there’s a whole planet of Jawas out there somewhere with a flourishing high culture based on shrieking various intonations of “uteedee!”

I was so confused when I saw The Phantom Menace and thought it was the dumbest loving thing. George Lucas is a moron and has no idea how to build a believable setting.

Rutibex posted:i always thought this was silly. all the prequel jedi dress like they are living on a desert planet Some do, some don’t. I can see where the criticism comes from but there are a good number of prequel Jedi who wear notably different things from Ben and Yoda. The majority of them tend to wear tunics and robes in simple earth tones, which could be said of plenty of religious orders whether they live in deserts or not. But there’s also weirdoes like Anakin with all his black leather, Ayla or Ahsoka showing a bunch of skin, or Luminara and Barriss both doing full length black robes all the time. I also think the reception of the prequel Jedi would have been even worse if Lucas had deviated wildly from what the Jedi in the original movies looked like and put them all in shining armor or something.
