Princess Leia hair and make up possibility
Time

I have also heard that this comes from Hopi girls :)

The main thing that makes me confused is that some people claim that they have tried hard to remake those hairstyles and consider it impossible.

However we all here in good mind and memory see that she actually wears all those hairstyles :)

Is it her own hair or a combination of natural hair and some hair extensions maybe that she wears during the whole trilogy?

Are there known ways of making exactly those true hairstyles or they did not survive till the present day? I suppose it should all be documented in some make up charts and such things so if one tries hard enough all that can be found and after spending those famous hours on that those true hairstyles can be made up without socks and such stuff. Do you think that is correct?

For example I have recently been at a high school graduation party and there I have seen many girls with hairstyles certainly not less complex than ones Leia had. In everyday life all those girls have nice long hair but still it is nothing unusual. They also claim that they have spent lots of time making those from their own natural hair.

So we can see at least that such things are possible outside the movies in our life :)

So, he is the guy who adapted the radio drama series.

Regarding the radio drama based closely on the original movies, Wikipedia article told me that they are to be considered the top level of canon alongside with the movies overriding anything else.

Based on that I suppose that the situation that we hear there should be considered the canon explanation unless it is overridden by a movie from Lucas, is that correct?

I got quite confused with if Vaider or Vader is correct?

Sorry, what is meant under technological probing here? Some lie detector capabilities of the bot?

Also, how could this kind of bot possibly do anything on its own without human assistance as it is described in some sources? I suppose if there is nobody around to prevent this kind of situation it should be quite easy to resist or even destroy the droid. Of course one will not get away with that, but... What do you think of this?

Russia?

Just a couple of questions about the movies
Time

The expanded universe materials are very strange for me in that they state the interrogation droids of all kinds, at least the imperial ones, were designed specifically to extract as much information as possible with as little physical and psychological damage as possible and in the next line they say that those things had bone fragmenters and even carried firearms, sorry, blasters, of course. Does not that seem at least a bit irrational? Did you ever see a blaster on this thing? Did you ever see anything but a syringe and a single arm that I suppose was designed to hold ones hand firmly while injecting something on this thing? I think its main purpose was still a sort lie detector and a medical assistant.

Is the radio drama explanation considered the canonical one?

Also that dialog from the drama lets us think that the droid was officially illegal.

The fact that ewoks were going to eat somebody is not the same that they were good military able to effectively take down imperial stormtrooper squads and armored vehicles for me.

I have read those early drafts some time ago and for me the final one makes the most sense. Why would the the imperials continue making something like that with Leia after they understood that she will never tell the truth and there is no way to make her in such a short time that this information would still be current?

Why would not she go with somebody actually claiming to be trying to rescue her from there? Vaider was going to kill her anyway and she understood that.

Also note that in latest drafts including the final one Leia was never physically harmed in any way by anyone.

That is the exact question. What was this droid capable of in general and what did it actually do to Leia?

I think that the ewoks are just way too harmless to defeat a few squads of well trained military humans. But, if somebody whose quantity is five time yours suddenly throws everything they have on you from an ambush... Who knows...

I personally suppose that in general some of his essential life support stuff was severely damaged... Do you think that his hand was completely artificial or there was something left of his own hand inside under the glove?

Sorry, I do not quite understand. What test?

Thank you!

Hello

I would like to ask a couple of questions about movies.

What did Vaider actually do to Princess Leia in the episode four when trying to get the location of the rebels?

What do you think of quite harmless little ewoks causing so many trouble for the imperial troops?

What was the actual cause of death of Darth Vaider?

I have heard that there is a sort of official canonical frequently asked questions base. Where can I find it?

Thank you!
