Jokes
In some places George has a scatter-
we are based on the plot of jokes that,alas, not everyone understands it.
For example, in Jabba's palace
Hutta (.Return of the Jedi.}
there are dumb people
lives with the names Klaatu, Barada and
Nobody. These names are commands for
robot from the cult HF film
ma .The day the Earth stopped
las. (1957).
And when the Ewoks perform one
Well, from your songs, viewers -
the Swedes start laughing wildly,
because in broken Swedish these
alien bears are singing!
Looks like it smells like bread.
By the way, a curious thing: in car-
not a word about Ewoks - we are tied
hiring the name of this funny
people only from the credits!

whether in a vigilant atmosphere
espionage by the press,
fans and just curiosity -

new situation, the studio went to
incredible tricks - on -
example, the person gave it to everyone -
lu T-shirts with the inscription "Blue
harvest, horror beyond the borders
images", from which it followed,
that cheap tril-
ler category B.
It didn't help.
But everything was wrong
Remember how R2D2 drives into
the halls of Jabba the Hutt? First
it was initially assumed that
the camera will follow the android
to Jabba's chambers, but from
this had to be abandoned. De-
The point is that the design of the palace
included a staircase along which
shorty robot just couldn't
climb.
Another example is not embodied -
new ideas shine through in the words
Han Solo, inferior to Thousand
yearling falcon Lando Kal-
Rissian to attack the second Stardy of Death: It feels like I
I won’t see him again... And now...
Indeed, Han should have

According to the script, she died heroically
along with the Death Star. But

I just forgot to blot out the sadness -

And one last thing. Return Series

Revenge of the Jedi took place. But
this name was fast
hacked to death. George Lucas softly
reminded the producers that

The reverse side of a miracle
Despite the gigantic budget

Future
Sad news: 7, 8 and 9 s-
