| | Let me give a honest try without cheating :) 1) Light Saber 5) Darth Vader is Luke's and Leia's father. 8) Final Star Wars movie - 2005 10) Chewie or Chewbacca 11) Red and black 20) The last one -> Revenge of Sith 23) It is the third movie of the series. 28) Lucas. That's all I could figure out!! Cheers! Ram | | | | | | |

| | Great quiz. I only got about 1/4. pyewacket did so well he deserves 'best response' anyway. Cor, when I started typing the response it jumbled up all the questions. If the last one isn't U2 is it The Corrs. I coudn't remember the planet with the teddies then there was another question with Endor in it and I thought, oh yes that was their planet. Is the junk food a hamburger - looks like one (or perhaps the box) to me. I thought it might have only been 3 beams of light on the deathstar but I expect he knows better than me. In case I got all of those incorrect, the sword-like weapon is a light sabre. May the force be with you! | | | | | | |

| | I've not looked to see if you have given then answers, but I thought I'd give it a go! Any I do not know the answer to I'll add a question mark. 1 - Lightsabre 2 - A Stormtrooper...and Lucas was originally going to remove this for the special edition, but decided against it in at the last minute. 3 - The S's are linked to the T and the R 4 - Carrie Fisher 5 - Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker is Luke Skywalker's father 6 - John Williams 7 - Endor...speaking of Ewoks, did you know there was 2 Ewok movies made? I don't think they are too good personally, but some people like them. 8 - The first move was released in 177 and the last was...um, I think 2003? 9 - ? 10 - Chewbacca 11 - Red and black 12 - Because of the way they spoke, it was thought they were making fun of certain foreign dialects...which is quite sad really, it's just a voice after all! 13 - Christopher Lee? 14 - Anthiny Daniels is C3PO and Kenny Baker is R2D2..and they are really nice people too! 15 - ? 16 - David Prowse is very tall! I'll guess 7'1" but think I'm totally wrong. 17 - Return Of The Jedi? 18 - Pizza 19 - ? 20 - Attack Of The Clones 21 - ? 22 - Sand Skiff I think 23 - before A New Hope, the third installment..and after The Clone Wars cartoon series. 24 - 4? 25 - Natalie Portman 26 - Tunisia? 27 - ? 28 - James Earl Jones 29 - Nerf Herder? | | | | | | |
