we’re taking a look at interesting facts
that spanned the complete theatrical
Star Wars catalog and that galaxy far
far away feel like you like we’re being
watched
number 10 Carrie Fisher had to have her
breasts paid down now I wear that only
when I go on trips so I can go through
security in metal you know and then they
make me strip and they bring in Jabba
the Hutt and it is great okay
let us explain after making it
abundantly clear that there is no
underwear in space George Lucas demanded
that Fisher have her breasts taped down
to avoid any sexually suggestive
movement as if that weren’t bad enough
in Return of the Jedi Leia was forced to
wear a metal bikini that simply wouldn’t
stay still seeing the Fisher in the
bikini would require multiple reshoot as
nip slips occurred frequently to make
matters worse the costume lacked proper
coverage from behind causing Fisher to
quip that if you stood behind me you
could see straight to Florida we suppose
a roll came with a disclaimer
emphasizing that those that are shy need
not apply in his belly you will find a
new definition of payment something
number 9 and sink nearly had a cameo in
Attack of the Clones kill the know they
just won start to fill it may sound a
little wacky but it is 100% true
according to NSYNC member Joey Fatone
back in 2001 when the second installment
of the Star Wars prequel series was
being shot the daughters of both George
Lucas and producer Rick McCallum begged
their fathers to include the members of
their favorite boy band in the newest
film
I’m a while Lance Bass and Justin
Timberlake were to beat to participate
the rest of the NSYNC crew was more than
happy to help out Joey and his brother
Stephen JC chose a and Chris Kirkpatrick
eventually filmed two scenes as Jedi
Knights but ultimately their cameos
ended up on the cutting room floor
of course I shot if they were going to
let a boyband in Star Wars to number
eight 2001 a Space Odyssey and Star Wars
shared almost the exact same production
crew to see somebody actually do it to
make a visual film was hugely
inspirational he did it I can do it when
you create one of the most iconic and
technologically advanced films in
history you can be sure that other
directors will want to borrow your
tricks as well as at least one or two of
your crew members such was the case when
George Lucas set out to shooting his
iconic space opera having seen Stanley
Kubrick’s own version of space
brilliantly brought to life in the 1968
film 2001 a Space Odyssey
Lucas surrounded himself with as many of
Kubrick’s old production crew as
possible making his version of space
seem believable relied on the expertise
of the group that became known as the
class of 2001 and we got to say it seems
like Lucas’s gamble paid off our two
front increases power here number seven
Return of the Jedi almost had a very
different ending
go when people remember the final
installment of the original Star Wars
trilogy many things come to mind
Lando almost falling into the Sarlacc
pit lay his iconic metal bikini he walks
and of course the defeat of the Emperor
and the redemption of Darth Vader yet
there were several darker endings
proposed one saw Han Solo killed Leia
struggling as Queen and Luke’s going off
on his own but the even darker alternate
ending would have seen Luke defeat his
father only to put on his helmet and
declare now I am Vader thus turning to
the dark side he will not be good you
will be destroyed a noticeably bleaker
ending that what was eventually shot
George Lucas scrapped the idea in favor
of something a little more hopeful and
merchandise friendly I’ll not leave you
here I’ve got to save you already number
6 Benicio del Toro was almost cast as
Darth Maul attached aliens sparsely
populated if the trace was correct I was
fine in cooking master
while many hardcore fans felt that the
Phantom Menace didn’t quite live up to
the height most can agree that Darth
Maul was a pretty badass villain rocking
a horn covered skull black and red skin
and wielding a double bladed lightsaber
this guy was the definition of not to be
messed with
while the actor who portrayed him is the
relatively unknown Rey Park a much more
famous actor nearly inhabited the role
del Toro was actually cast as mall
before dropping out due to a
disagreement over his characters lack of
speaking lines and feel like a traitor
ultimately Park must have been less
concerned with his characters dialogue
as Darth Maul only speaks a few lines
during the course of the film and not
even with parks voice at last we will
reveal ourselves to the Jedi at last we
will have
number five Darth Vader is banned from
all official Star Wars events release
your anger only your hatred can destroy
me as an actor in a Star Wars film it’s
only natural that your presence will be
required at numerous film related
functions and events however one such
actor is no longer on the invite list
David Prowse the man who actually donned
the iconic black mask of Darth Vader has
reportedly been banned from all
Lucasfilm associated events according to
Prowse when he inquired as to why he was
suddenly on the blacklist
the only reason given was that he had
burned too many bridges between himself
and Lucasfilm imagine playing one of the
most evil characters in film history
only to end up ostracized in your
regular life I sense something a
presence I haven’t felt since one out of
the door number four Samuel Jackson had
an awesome quote engraved on his
lightsaber what country you from fuck
watch what I know country I heard up
dangerous and what ever since he
portrayed the character of Jules in
1994’s neo-noir crime comedy Pulp
Fiction the world has known that Samuel
Jackson is a badass in the film the
character of Jules carries a wallet that
displays his unofficial title to one the
big bad mother as such when he accepted
the role of mace windu in the Star Wars
prequels it was only a matter of time
before this title ended up on the side
of his lightsaber in case you haven’t
figured it out
Jackson claims that BMF was engraved on
the side of his purple lightsaber I have
my lightsaber at home and the prop
Department actually put BMF on the on
switch number three studio executives
wanted Chui to have clothes somebody get
this big walking carpet out of my way
Chewbacca is the ultimate sidekick the
perfect combination of loyalty fighting
skills and comic relief however what
made him stand out was his enormous size
his unintelligible dialogue and his
beautiful brown fur listen to me Julie
roux-en-y on me hey hey your strength
I’ll be another time thankfully for
moviegoers everywhere the latter was
allowed to remain unencumbered by
anything as pedestrian as clothing see
studio executives believe that because
chewy wasn’t wearing any clothes he was
essentially naked so they wanted the
character redesigned to accommodate a
pair of shoe
ignoring the fact that this must have
made George Lucas spit out his morning
coffee the image of Han Solo sidekick
wearing a pair of shorts is downright
hilarious ultimately the idea was
scrapped and Chewie was allowed to go
commando
I’ve got no such pleasure for life right
number two
Harrison Ford was cast as Han Solo kind
of by accident
I’m so lonely I’m captain the Millennium
Falcon it’s hard to imagine anyone else
playing the role that made Harrison Ford
a household name the character of Han
Solo was the definition of cool under
pressure and Ford’s devil-may-care
attitude suited him perfectly why you
stuck-up half-witted scruffy-looking
nerf-herder who’s scruffy-looking yet
when George Lucas was casting the part
he was looking for someone new Ford
having worked with Lucas on American
Graffiti
agreed to feed lines to those
auditioning for the role it was only
after numerous actors came to wint that
Lucas realized the man helping him find
Han Solo was in fact Han Solo himself
several films and billions of dollars
later it’s safe to say that the right
choice was made cheering
our homes before we unveil our topic
here are a few honorable mentions it
sounds like Bates to establish a
connection trace was it is true this is
totally different
no no different only different in your
mind
[Music]
number one Luke’s last name was supposed
to be star killer I’m trying I’m here to
rescue you
until his appearance in the force
awakens the name Luke Skywalker conjured
up images of a young inexperienced
farmhand living with his aunt and uncle
while his character experiences growth
during the original trilogy the iconic
image of him staring lustily at the
galaxy desperate for an adventure
remains thus it was all the more
shocking when it was revealed on early
drafts of Star Wars portrayed Luke as a
60 year old War vet and yet another gave
him the name star killer that name made
it all the way to shooting until George
Lucas relented realizing it would have
out negative emotions toward the
character the name would live on however
serving as the title of the deadly ice
planet from the force awakens and this
is star killer base so it’s big do you
