Lord Darth Hunter Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 “Wait Luke, it’s too dangerous!” Obi Wan yells at Luke to stop. But doesn’t do anything except watch him speed off as Luke heads home because he believes, rightfully so, that stormtroopers are on their way there to slaughter the family. What if Luke made it in time to see the stormtroopers still there? After spending two decades watching over Luke, how ironic that at the moment of truth Obi Wan failed to keep Luke safe.

The Choc Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Pretty well established that memory and language are not connected in droids. Threepio has his memory wiped in III and IX and speaks perfectly fine after both instances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He talks about being taught the binary language of evaporators, so why wouldn't that be lost. What are they wiping, his dialog memories, or an area of his memory that contains event time tables?

Zathras Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 What happened to Luke's X-Wing at Bespin? In fact, what happened to Bespin after the evacuation? Did the Empire take it over permanently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a memory of the old Marvel ROTJ comic run from ‘83 onwards where Lando heads back to Could City (in the events between ESB & ROTJ), and remember a reprogrammed Lobot punching him off of the platform as a cliffhanger - can’t recall if the x-wing was involved in the escape, but maybe?

You can say he knew Luke would arrive after they had left, but I think n all honesty in the heat of the moment he felt he needed to guard the droids who had those plans - very risky leaving them alone and quickly legging it into the speeder with Luke… Rock and a hard place! LOL! Why He Do DAT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did Han learn how to speak Wookiee? Or does he just think he can talk to and understand Chewbacca the same way people communicate with their pet dogs?

Disney released comic books that actually answer these very questions: https://www.ign.com/articles/star-wars-plot-hole-mystery-luke-skywalker-x-wing-marvel I find it amusing that they wrote about it as if it was “fixing a plot hole” between ESB and ROTJ.

Darth Krawlie Posted August 25, 2022 Author Share Posted August 25, 2022 Word. Threepio should’ve been Padme’s droid and Artoo should’ve been Watto’s and/or the Skywalkers. Anakin didn’t need to build any of them. Stupid George. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that we see a protocol droid earlier with the trade federation, I always assumed Anakin got his hands on a kit-build of some sort. But yeah, stupid George.

Darth Krawlie Posted August 26, 2022 Author Share Posted August 26, 2022 I think it’s supposed to be for bomber, but I agree. Still mad we’ve never seen them in action in the films. Closest we got is the bombers in TLJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metropolis Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 The B Wing actually has no bombs like the ones in TLJ. The B actually stands for Blade. Yet the A in A-Wing doesn't stand for anything if I'm not mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
