Bad Movie Physics: A Report Card (+7)Edit

"To some extent, it's understandable that space adventures play fast and loose with physics. After all, who wants to watch Han Solo spend years on the journey to Alderaan, only to find that the planet has twice Earth gravity and he can barely stand up, much less swagger?"
―Charlie Jane Anders[src]

Cracked (+6)Edit

"Quickly, what's your favorite scene from the original Star Wars trilogy? The first moment you see Darth Vader? When Luke loses his hand and finds out the truth about his father? The battle with Imperial Walkers on Hoth? Whatever it was, chances are it was conceived long before A New Hope was ever made, and not by George Lucas. Ralph McQuarrie was the production illustrator—basically, the guy whose job it is to get studios excited about the movie. He was supposed to sketch out a few ideas based on an incomplete script, just to give a hint of what direction the film might go…Looking at what he accomplished, it would be insulting to call his pictures "concept art"; they were Star Wars."
―On Ralph McQuarrie, from Cracked's "7 Artists Who Secretly Made Your Favorite Movies" by David Christopher Bell[src]

Cracked (+4)Edit

"Without McQuarrie, there wouldn't be a Darth Vader helmet, or a Boba Fett suit, or Storm Trooper armor, which means you would have spent an entire decade of your childhood dressing up each Halloween as a ghost or a skeleton or some bullshit. Unless you did do that, in which case, you should watch Star Wars, it's really good."

Star Wars Trilogy: The Radio Play (+1)Edit

Zoidberg: "You know, I think that R2-D2 unit we bought might have been stolen."
Aquaman: "What makes you think that?"
Zoidberg: "Well, it so happens that I stumbled across a recording while I was cleaning him—what a job that was—Oi! He says he belongs to someone named Obi-Wan Kenobi. I thought he might have meant Old Ben. Do you know what he's talking about because [Yiddish interjection] I don't."
Aquaman: "That wizard's just a crazy old man! Tomorrow, I want to take the R2 unit into Anchorhead and have its memory. That'll be the end of it! It belongs to us now!"
Zoidberg: "But Owen, Owen, what if, what if this Obi-Wan comes lookink for him?"
Aquaman: "'Lookink?'"
Zoidberg: "'Lookink.' Look, you talk whatever way you want. I talk this way because listen. [audience is laughing]"
Aquaman: "Fine with me, Lobster Man, as long as you remember who the king of the sea is. I don't want to bring out a whale to whoop your ass."

Telegraph (+5)Edit

"Such is the cultish devotion to the Star Wars brand, there are hundreds upon hundreds of well-maintained fan sites, covering every last minutiae of the fictional universe. Some choice favourites include Star Wars Resort ('wouldn't it be cool if there were a Star Wars theme park?'), and The Mos Eisley Football League ('the fantasy football league for Star Wars fans'). As far as killer names go, however, 'Wookieepedia' brooks no comparison."
―James Lachno, writing in the UK Telegraph[src]

Narrative textEdit

Lost Tribe of the Sith: Secrets (+8)Edit

"Unfazed [by her husband's death], the widow Hilts soldiered on, targeting the faction leader for seduction the very next week. Minions carefully delivered her to the leader’s private bedchambers in a massive ceremonial urn. Unfortunately, the lid was stubborn, and no one had told her the leader was spending the month campaigning in the high country. However, she did achieve her surprise, if the horror of the cleaning servants counted."
―Varner Hilts remembers the circumstances of his mother's death[src]

Bounty Hunter Wars (+4)Edit

"The blaster fire from the compound continued, like the electrical discharge of a distant storm. Someday, Fett supposed, the destruction of the Bounty Hunters Guild would be nothing but memory. But not his; he had no use for memory. All remembering was in vain. . ."
