Wondering if anyone is interested in this trivia challenge anymore!

I'm pretty sure the interest is still going strong! On this side of the pond, unless you have pay tv (never have, never will!) we haven't seen any of the 'extras' (Christmas, Holiday etc etc). All we have to go on is the actual movies  I'll have a guess, boarding scene at the beginning, conference on the Death Star, Prison cell torture droid, dog fighting at the end - probably less than ten minutes in total?

See that's the fun... you may not be able to google but you can always guess... you never know if you're right or not! I've hosted on several forums this challenge and alot of people just throw out funny guesses when they don't know the actual answer... then they go google and come back saying "Dang, I should have known that one!"

It's Monday and a special occasion. Our beloved Death Star will be passing over the sun today and crossing the great nation of North America! Only fitting that this is also the 1 year anniversary of this trivia challenge! Hope I've broadened your knowledge and increased your geek cred with it! How many of you have actually asked these questions of your friends when you saw them here to sound like you knew it? :) Well... in honor of this glorious occasion, here is this weeks question... remember the rules... take a guess... no googling... you could be right you could be wrong... in the end you're not gonna win a car! So here we go... Question 52:
What do Star Wars and the original Irwin Allen TV series Lost in Space have in common?Answer:
John Williams - Before John Williams penned and created the iconic theme and music score that defines the entire Star Wars universe, John Williams created many other iconic themes for movies and television, including the beloved Lost In Space theme we all know and love!
First Correct Answer: NONE

It's Monday... and you all know what that means... it's trivia day! But then again no one will actually read this part of the entire message at all because all you will read is the question and move along... so I could basically say anything I want here and no one would ever notice... perhaps I could start a new rumor about a celebrity or put up top secret information about a new type of energy source that all the search engines will see and duplicate, but not a single one of you will notice because all you see is the question of the week! You all know the rules by now... no googling for the answer! So, barring the fact that water fueled cars are actually cheaper to electric ones, let's get on with the question shall we? Question 53:
Which of George Lucas' friends edited the original opening crawl in Episode IV?Answer:
Brian de Palma - The opening crawl is as iconic as everything else in Star Wars. George Lucas was so adamant about having it in the film, and without a traditional credits system preceding it, that he paid a fine to the Director's Guild of America and then subsequently resigned. But Lucas' original version of the crawl, as seen in a 1976 draft of the script, was different than what ended up on screen. That's because his friend and famed director, Brian de Palma, edited the crawl to make it more comprehensible. The gist, however, remains the same.

Ok all you rebel scum... it's Tuesday (Monday was a holiday) and it's time for a new question... I hope you've got your thinking caps on for this one cause it's a doozy! Remember no googling, but you can go back and watch the movies to get your answers! So here's the question... Question 54: Who voiced Boba Fett in the original Star Wars trilogy?Answer:
Jason Wingreen - Much like Darth Vader, the performance of Boba Fett in the original trilogy was divided between the physical and the vocal. Jeremy Bullock filled the boots of the iconic armor that would become emblematic of Mandalorians throughout the franchise. Jason Wingreen provided the original rattling voice behind the mask.

Ok all... it's Monday and even with Irma breathing down my neck, I've been able to summon all my jedi mind tricks to keep her at bay enough to bring you this week's question... my prayers go out to anyone in it's path... may the force be with you all... so here it is! Question 55:
Which character was originally written as a “green-skinned guy with no nose and large gills"?Answer:
Han Solo - Han was originally supposed to be a green-skinned alien with gills and no nose. I bet he wouldn't have been such a heart throb with the ladies if that's how he was depicted!
