| It's been awfully quiet around here lately... but it's Monday and it's time for a new Trivia question! Maybe I've been a bit to rough on you guys lately, so to make up for it, I'll try to make this an easy one this week. So let's give it a shot this week! Question 136:
What is the name of General Grievous' ship?- Answer:
The Invisible Hand - The Invisible Hand was a modified Providence-class carrier/destroyer and one of General Grievous's flagships during the Clone Wars. The vessel was colored a light blue-gray, with subtle yellow bow stripes which distinguish it from other Providence-class vessels bearing red striping.
First Correct Answer: VINTAGEHAN

| Godo Monday to all of you out there in internetland... I hope you all had a good weekend. It's Monday and it's time for a new trivia question. I hope you all are having a good time with this... let's see if you can answer this question correctly! Question 137:
How many theaters did A New Hope initially release in?Answer:- Spoiler:
32 - Star Wars is undeniably the biggest entertainment franchise of all time, and it has its hand in virtually every medium, including television, video games, and comic books. It's difficult to imagine something Star Wars related flopping at the box office. Just look at how well The Force Awakens did in 2015. But the thing is, Star Wars wasn't always a sure-fire bet. Twentieth Century Fox was so skeptical about the first film that they elected to release it in only 32 theaters out of the gate. Needless to say, once word-of-mouth spread, Star Wars was soon hitting theaters nationwide.
First Correct Answer: NO ONE |

| Good Monday all you happy rebels. Seems as if it's gotten awfully quiet around here lately... so I guess this week I'll make it an easy one for you, and hopefully you all are still playing along! Question 138:
What gives a lightsaber its color?- Answer:
Kyber Crystals - As a rite of passage, young Jedi Knights are required to search for their lightsaber crystal to build their first lightsabers. These crystals and how they "tune" with the Jedi, give the lightsaber it's color.

| Crystals. I don't know the exact name of them but its different coloured crystals that fit inside a chamber of the hilt. I had no idea of the previous question... was going to guess '3', bit far off the mark there

In Splinter of Mind's Eye, they were referred to as Kaiburr crystals. Canon has since changed the spelling. Not sure what the current accepted spelling is.

But I'm still too young to care"
I think he was supposed to be 17-18 years old.
