| No idea but will guess. The Tick is a spoof comic character so maybe he is a big fan of Darth Vader or tells everyone he used to work for the Rebel Alliance. That or it's a production connection of some kind - costumes.

| Greets all... sorry for the late trivia day... had some technical difficulties yesterday. But I'm here so no need to worry anymore! So let's get to it this week shall we? Question 109:
When was the only time in the entire Star Wars series an Imperial Blaster was fired in stun mode?- Answer:
During the open scene in Episode 4 and New Hope when Princess Leia was stunned by a stormtrooper.
First Correct Answer: TrappedTexan

| I know this one. It was when they shot Leia after she made the r2d2 recording. Coincidentally this is also one of the only times an imperial trooper hits his target and in one shot no less. Their steller markmanship would go on to fire thousands of shots that never hit the broad side of a barn.

| Good Monday morning all you happy rebels out there... I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and I hope you're ready for this week's Trivia Question... let's do this... Question 110: What actor pulled out of Episode III: Revenge of the Sith when he discovered that non-union actors were being used in the film?- Answer:
Gary Oldman had agreed to be the voice of General Grievous, but pulled out of the film because it was being made using actors who were not part of the Screen Actor's Guild, of which Oldman was a member.
First Correct Answer: NO ONE

| Yep, that was a mighty tough one. I thought of Anthony Daniels as I recalled some dispute he had once, but didn't think it was over that particular issue.

| Good Monday morning all you happy rebels out there. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and are bright eyed and bushy tailed for a new trivia question this week. I promised that I'd go a bt easier on you buts this week, and my word is my bond. So, let's get on with it shall we? Question 111:
Who was the first to say "It's a trap"?- Answer:
"It's a trap," which is arguably the most famous line in the ROTJ, was, incredibly, not in the screenplay. The line was scripted as "It's a trick!" and was later changed post-filming after a test screening because let's face it, "it's a trick" just doesn't have the same ring to it. Anyway, even thou Admiral Ackbar made the line famous, Princess Leia said it first in The Empire Strikes Back.
First Correct Answer: NO ONE

| Good Monday morning all you fellow rebels out there... it's Monday and that means it's time for a new Trivia Question... I realize everyone must be busy lately with the holidays coming up but I'll try to go easy on you all. So let's get to it shall we? Question 112:
How many times was the word "Ewok" spoken in the original trilogy?- Answer:
"Ewok" was never spoken in the original trilogy. The word "Ewok" is never uttered by a character in the original trilogy. Although, the species is identified in the script and closing credits.

| I don't think they were referred to by name except by C-3PO who I'll guess mentioned the name Ewok twice.

| Looking forward to Halloween, the pumpkin carving, movies, dressing up   Last year we went to a Halloween theme park. This year we're having a 'Halloween tea party' at home - decorations, cake, food, movies, music, masks. How about you Lord Quizmaster, you planning anything? Onto my guess as I don't know the answer... I'll guess some type of washing/cleaning powder used with a hairdryer??

| I seem to remember it was baking soda. I seem to remember watching a "making of" video at some point where they said the background was a painting (I think a McQuarrie one) and the platform/stage for the walkers was covered in baking soda. They animators would access the walkers through trap doors in the "snow" to make the "stop motion" of the walkers, and as a result the baking soda got everywhere.

| Hmmmm, we have a guess of soap and baking soda; what else could have been used that is white powderish type substance from the 70s??? Assuming illicit drugs don't count, I am going to guess flour.
