# Hah
Not many people notice this, except Star Wars nerds, but the robot bounty hunter, IG88, you see on the bridge of the Devastator being briefed by Vader, is seen in this chamber as Chewie collects the pieces of C3P0; deactivated (ionized by Fett)

Being the money whore the Star Wars franchise is these days, they can have the leeching

# are you the type of person who likes ANYTHING if it makes a star wars reference?
I've got a friend like that. Even really, really overdone ones like I AM YOUR FATHER, he just loves it.

# No
I love the original films, but find the 'expanded universe' simply stupid, any lingering prolonged interest is ebbing and diminishing given how I have seen Lucas handle it all, it's simply grown rather sad to be honest

That said, give me Hoth or Bespin unspoilt by thirty novels detailing tales of how it's heating once shut down, or the anti-gravity on Cloud City was sabotaged by some obscure character glimpsed at in the Muppet Christmas Special, and I will always love the original films

# i promised the /board earlier that i'd watch all the films in the coming year
in no particular order mind you, and i don't promise i'll remember any of the characters names, i'm still confused by laurel and hardy and i know one of them's the fat one.

# For the influence the original films have had on cinema it's a crime not to really have watched them
it's just a shame where it's all gone since
