Remember when Obi-Wan felt that disturbance in the force? Well, he wasn't talking about the death star.

If you want a serious explanation, how about this: All the beings in the Star Wars universe eat little pills/energy bars (like the one Yoda tastes in ESB) that provide all that is necessaryto their bodies but produces no waste. Except on very rare special occasions when they eat normal food which is later regurgitated (all the times when you see people eating in the movies are "special occasions").

This is a silly topic, but to be serious, I would assume they go like everyone else does, bathroom and all. As for Jabba, of course he doesn't. It's not like he could even fit in a room at the ROTJ point, he's on the sled because he's so fat he can't move himself anymore.

Has any publication from the official EU ever touched this topic?

Yes, I suppose. I have these three mags called the "Technical Journals." It has a listing on theforce.net under short guides, so that proves they do exist. Whether they offical EU or not, I'm not sure there. They came out before the SE and I remember reading about how the sled moved Jabba around because he was so fat. I also know in a diagram for A New Hope they have a schematic of the Falcon that shows where the bathroom is, which unfortunately the Incredible Cross-Sections disagrees with, so we don't know where it truly is.

This is what I am talking about, though it appears theforce.net was never able to pick up a copy and review them.

Star Wars Technical Journal of the Planet Tatooine
Star Wars Technical Journal of the Imperial Forces
Star Wars Technical Journal of the Rebel Forces

and I remember reading the answer section of a Star Wars Insider that mentioned the Incredible Cross-Sections showed the spot where the toilet was located on the Falcon, though I don't have that one.

I think GL should have a online chat with fans just to answer these crazy questions, like "how do they go to the bathroom" and "does jabba have sex". And whatever he answers, that's the official answer.

GL's answers:

Q: "Do Star Wars characters defecate or urinate?" A: "No this is a PG-rated movie"

Q: "Don't they use toilets" A: "I original intended for the toilet to shoot first when making ANH, but now that cgi is possible...."

Q: "Does Jabba the Hutt have sex?" A: "Not on screen"

Q: "How does Jabba have sex?" A: "Well since we modeled Jabba after a walrus in the special edition, and since walrus's copulate by the male getting on the female.....I think you get the picture"

Q: "Are you saying that Jabba crushes his palace whores when he has sex with them?" A: "I never said that. Obviously aliens cant reproduce with different aliens, so Jabba feels no attraction to those women"

Q: "So why does Jabba have so many scantily clad women surrounding him all the time?" A: "Its a status thing"

Q: "Oh, so Jabba is a Mormon?" A: "No, the latter-day saints do not exist in SW"

Q: "So you deny god?" A: "Again you put words in my mouth. I never said god didn't exist, but in SW he is obsolete"

Q: "So what deity do the SW characters turn to then?" A: "The metaclorians"

Q: "Moving on: what made you choose the slave outfit Leia wears in ROTJ?" A: "My wife wore it on our honeymoon, but that was before....*puff*"

Q: "Why do you get so emotional all the time? Are you on painkillers?" A: "Absolutely not! I'm a PG-rated man."

Anyway, those are the sources of information to look up if you truly want to know where things like the bathroom are located.

How do Star Wars people go to the bathroom?


In the WAY WAY distant PAST.....

They had such HIGH technology that they used eugenics to engineer out the need to 'potty'

Hmmm... scary.

I, for one, enjoy the ability to be able to pee when necessary. If we engineer it out, what happens to all those classic "yellow snow" jokes?

Reminds me of that horrible scene from Jackass the movie, where the guy actually eated his "yellow snow cone". No, couldn't do that in Hoth.
