The <strong>Original Trilogy</strong> - a general <strong>Random Thoughts</strong> thread
Time

Any thoughts on why an extract of music from The Empire Strikes Back is used in the scene from Return Of The Jedi when Luke talks to Leia in the Ewok village. It starts with the extract from ‘Yoda And The Force’ and then goes in to the Jedi score ‘Brother And Sister’. It fits perfect but I am wondering if the scene was originally intended without music until the ‘Brother And Sister’ cue.

Have anyone seen any photos of this droid before? The post said it was from ROTJ, but I couldn’t spot it in the torture droid scene, so this is either a background character that didn’t make the cut or they replaced it with another design at some point.

This droid is seen very briefly in two scenes. The first is when the commotion starts as Boushh and Chewbacca arrive at Jabba’s Palace.
The droid is seen full length from the back on the left hand side of the screen at the wall.
The second time is when Chewbacca slings the guard down the steps. On the left of the screen is a close up of the back of the head. The droid looks right and you can see the pincer mouth.

Great book. A ton of memories of what it was like for us Brits waiting for Star Wars to be released over here in the UK.
Incudes release dates for London cinemas and general releases.
Also memorabilia that was released exclusive to the UK and behind the scenes of Palitoy and Marvel comics UK.

<em>Solo: A Star Wars Story</em> — Official Review and Opinions Thread — <strong>SPOILERS</strong>
Time

There was a scene in the Falcon where L3-37 has a bit of malfunction and hits herself on the side of the head to start up again. As her data is now in and part of the falcon, could this now be seen later in The Empire Strikes Back when Han hits the wall of the cockpit to re-start the Falcon up?
Just a thought.

Thought I would dig out the Star Wars Holiday Special as I had not seen it through in years.
Blimey! That was a real test of endurance. Even worse than I remembered.
The best thing about this recent viewing was the Cantina scene. I forgot all about the Mos Eisley creatures from the film appearing. It was good to see the costumes and masks of background aliens in more detail than the film.
