Star Wars Trivia
At the bottom of this page, http://www.generalgrievous.net, are links to the plot scripts for Episodes 7-9 of Star Wars authored by George Lucas.
I guess the post-Return on the Jedi books that came out were based on these. I read the 4th and 5th trilogies (long, long ago in a galaxy far, far away) but not the 3rd trilogy which was based on the scripts above. (Anyone to whom that sentence made sense is DEFINITELY a Star Wars NERD :)
If Lucas does a pre-history to the pre-history will it be called the -1 Trilogy? -1 B.A. (Before Anakin?)
The first sentence of the "synopsis story" for Episode 7 (see this site, http://www.starwarssequels.com/) says, "Thirty years have passed since the Battle of Endor..." Uhmmmm.... That would put Harrison Ford and company at EXACTLY the age they are now! Uhmmmm.....
Also, the first link above has a very interesting "History of the Jedi and Sith"
article written by someone else but based on input from Lucas.
On a differnt vein there seems to be a lot of market opportunities in the Star Wars universe. As I see it, here are some much needed products:
- Jedi parachuettes. They're always falling from high places and/or into endless pits.
- Sith Lord anit-aging/anti-wrinkle cream. (You need to see Episode 3 for this to make sense.)
- Anti-lightsaber forearm armor. Jedi are always losing arms and hands. Leg armor would be good too.
- Anti-Sith Lord ligthning rods. Always ground yourself before battling a Sith Lord. A custom lightning rod add-on for your R2 Unit would be a good product too.
- Hooded capes in different colors. Start a fashion trend and convince all Jedi they need to buy a new hooded cape every year to stay in fashion.
- High Definition Color Holograms. What's with the fuzzy blue-only holograms? Where's HD-HG?
- A space ship car wash. There are a LOT of freakin' space ships in the Star Wars universe. I've never seen a car wash (or "ship wash"). Or a gas station for that matter.
- "Hand tar" to help prevent you from dropping your lightsaber (which seems to happen ALL the time). (This idea curtosy of Matt Orman.)
- A "clapper" for when you've lost your lightsaber and can't find it. Clap on... Clap off... (Of course, if you drop your lightsaber and an innocent bystandard picks it up then "clap on" could cut their head off. Your Jedi forces should alert you to this beforehand though.)
