ANSWERS

 

1. The answer is b) Anakin Skywalker!

C-3PO was built from spare parts by Anakin Skywalker. As a 3PO-series protocol droid, he was designed to interact with organics, programmed primarily for etiquette and protocol. He’s fluent in over six million forms of communication, but is very fussy and worry-prone.

 

2. The answer is d) Hutt!

Jabba is a Hutt gangster and crime lord, as well as a member of the Grand Hutt Council, who operates and leads a criminal empire from his palace on the Outer Rim world of Tatooine. He controls the bulk of the trafficking in illegal goods, piracy and slavery that generates most of the planet's wealth. He’s also highly influential in the entire Outer Rim as one of its most powerful crime lords.

 

3. The answer is c) George Lucas!

George Lucas is the creator of Star Wars, and he executive-produced its original trilogy and the prequel trilogy. On a return-on-investment basis, Star Wars proved to be one of the most successful films of all time!

 

4. The answer is a) Droids!

Obi-Wan uses his Jedi mind tricks to convince stormtroopers that R2-D2 and C-3PO aren’t who they’re looking for when he, Luke and the droids are trying to avoid detection by the Empire. It's basically another way to say "nothing happening here." 

 

5. The answer is b) Harrison Ford!

Harrison Ford first played Han Solo in the first ever Star Wars movie in 1977. The character is the captain of the Millennium Falcon who, along with Wookiee co-pilot Chewbacca, becomes affiliated with the Rebel Alliance in their war against the Galactic Empire when he transports Jedi Ben Kenobi and his pupil Luke Skywalker to Alderaan.

 

6. The answer is a) C-3P0 and R2-D2!

The two droids, C-3PO and R2D2, appear in every one of the “canonical” Star Wars movies — that is, they appear in every film that is part of the official saga, Episodes 1 through 9 (and counting).

 

7. The answer is d) 1977!

Star Wars: A New Hope was released back in 1977. We meet Luke Skywalker as he is thrust into the struggle of the Rebel Alliance after a chance meeting with Obi-Wan Kenobi, who has lived for years in seclusion on the desert planet of Tatooine. Obi-Wan begins Luke’s Jedi training as Luke joins him on a daring mission to rescue the rebel leader Princess Leia and rid the galaxy of the evil Empire.  

 

8. The answer is c) John Williams!

John Williams has scored some of the most iconic films of all times. Along with Star Wars, he’s also the man behind the music for Jaws, E.T., Jurassic Park, Close Encounters of The Third Kind, Saving Private Ryan, Indiana Jones and Harry Potter. Wow!

 

9. The answer is d) Attichitcuk!

Attichitcuk and Chewbacca's mother lived in the city of Rwookrrorro on the planet Kashyyyk. By the year 19 BBY, Attichitcuk was already a light-furred elderly Wookiee. Nevertheless, he participated in the Battle of Kashyyyk, serving as a gunner aboard an Oevvaor Jet Catamaran piloted by Zittaasabba and Wullffwarro.

 

10. The answer is b) Daisy Ridley!

Yep, Daisy played Rey Skywalker in the newer Star Wars films. Rey is a human Jedi Master who fought on the side of the resistance in the war against the First Order. When she decided to help the droid BB-8, she went on an adventure that would lead to her discovering the Force and seeking out Jedi Master Luke Skywalker for training.
