Star-Wars is the best movie i’ve ever seen. i found these pictures. enjoy !

Here is some trivia about this icon of the 20th Century.

• Luke Skywalker’s name was originally going to be Dirk Starkiller.
• Peter Mayhew, who played Chewbacca, worked as a hospital orderly in London before being cast as the Wookiee. He was said to have got into character by copying the mannerisms of animals he visited at the zoo.

Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker)

• C3PO was named after a post office which is located at reference C3 on a map of Lucas’ hometown. R2-D2 is an abbreviation of ‘Reel Two, Dialog Two’.

Frank Oz (voice of Yoda)

• Harrison Ford wasn’t an original candidate to play Han Solo. He was originally brought in simply to feed lines to the other auditioners. After watching Ford, George Lucas realized he was the perfect Han.

James Earle Jones (voice of Darth Vader)

• Director George Lucas originally had a contract with Fox for $150,000 for writing and directing Star Wars. But he cannily insisted on total control and 40% of merchandising - something the studio agreed to because they had no idea of what a phenomenon Star Wars would become.

Harrison Ford (Han Solo)

• In the bar on Tattooine (where Luke and Obi-Wan meet Han Solo), you see lots of aliens at the bar. Look carefully in the background of these shots, and you’ll see a NASA astronaut in full space walk gear (helmet etc) walking across the back of the shot, complete with American flag on his arm. It’s quite obvious once you know where to look.

Kenny Baker (R2-D2)

• In the Death Star scenes (yes, all of them), whenever the Imperials walk, you can hear their footsteps. But when Tarkin walks, you can’t hear him. This is because Peter Cushing (Tarkin) found his Imperial boots so uncomfortable, he didn’t wear them. He wore carpet slippers, so you can’t hear him.

Anthony Daniels (C3P0)

• Luke’s line “I can’t see a thing in this helmet” was not scripted. Mark Hamill said this to Harrison Ford when he thought the cameras had stopped rolling. But, the filmmakers decided to leave the line in.

Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca)

• Anthony Daniels was injured during his first outing as C-3PO when a leg piece fell off his gold-coloured costume and shattered - stabbing him in the foot.

Sir Alec Guinness (Obi-Wan Kenobi)

• George Lucas wanted to do a Flash Gordon remake, but couldn’t obtain the movie rights and developed Star Wars in its stead - hence the opening title sequence. Following the success of Star Wars, the owners of Flash Gordon decided to make a movie after all. Released in 1980, the same year as The Empire Strikes Back, it flopped.

Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia)

• On the first day of filming in the deserts of Tunisia, the country experienced its first major rainstorm in 50 years and a rest day had to be called.

Peter Cushing (Grand Moff Tarkin)

• The droids R2-D2 and C-3PO are said to be based on the 1958 Akira Kourosawa film Kakushi toride no san akunin (The Hidden Fortress). Other characters in Star Wars were also drawn from the film including Han Solo and Ben Kenobi.
