    Let's play a game, brainiacs!

    I dare you to come up with the most INFORMATIVE, and yet UNKNOWN and TRIVIAL fact on the Star Wars MOVIES, and I invite people in giving an "INFORMATIVE" rating on it.

    So:

    We have fun!
    We educate ourselves with trivial facts!
    We become Kings of nerds.

    I start:

    You know that Deep Roy (Yes, the guy from Neverending Story and the Umpa Lumpa from the new version of Willy Wonka) was playing Droopy McCool?!

    Apparently IG-88's head originated as a drink dispenser in the Cantina in ANH.

    @InigoMontoya brought this to my attention...

    Did you know that The Clone Wars character Pre Vizsla, leader of the Mandalorian vigilante group Death Watch, was based on a young Max von Sydow's looks?

    The in-universe name for the genre of music heard during the cantina scene is “jizzwailing.”

    Revenge of the Jedi was changed to Return of the Jedi when George Lucas heard that the upcoming Star Trek sequel was titled The Vengeance of Kahn. It was subsequently changed to The Wrath of Kahn but GL thought return worked better being that it was more in line with the what the Jedi were about, and that the film was ultimately about redemption not revenge.
