Stan's Super-Hard Star Wars Trivia Pt. II: Creatures



Octo took Round 1, barely edging out JSP. Here's a batch of not-as-difficult questions about some of the biological specimens from the OT:

1) Approximately how big is a womprat?

2) What creature makes a habit of chewing on power cables?

3) What creature's ears can be pulled off by a relatively strong human?

4) How far does the random Rebel soldier think Han Solo's Taun-Taun will get before it freezes?

5) What creature(s) with a brief appearance was one of the original concepts for Jabba the Hutt?

I don't have too many more of these, I'm just really jazzed about contributing to the blog in general...

1. Slightly larger than the two-meter target exhaust port on the Death Star. "I used to bullseye womprats in my T-16 back home, they're not much bigger than two meters."

2. Mynoks

3. Gundark

4. Uh...the first marker? Hell?

5. Is it those band member guys? I'm basing this guess on what Jabba looked like in the comic book adaptation, which included that scene they stuck back into the special edition, but with Jabba as a green humanoid.

Nice, Octo! My late-nite posting may give those from the West Coast System a slight advantage, so we'll see who else bites.

I don't want to confirm or deny how many you got right, just in case anyone else wants to jump in. (But you probably know the truth...)

#5 ain't quite it, and technically it's one of those outside-knowledge questions; I normally try to stick with stuff you would know only from watching the trilogy about 3000 times. But I had to ask something. But I avoid the EU (comics, novels, Holiday Specials) as a general rule.

But I sense something...a presence I've not felt since...

4) He'll never make it past the first marker.

5) The Sarlacc Pit

Wow. #5 seems to be a real stumper, and I thought it was fairly common knowledge.

Seeing as how it's just you two again, I'll just go ahead and confirm that Octo is spot on with his dialogue and spelling on the first 3 answers, and JSP had the more accurate answer on #4. Though Octo's double shot (with question marks) was mostly correct. Partial credit.

I'll give it a few more hours to see if anyone wants to claim superiority with a correct answer to #5.

5) A Wookiee?

JPX, what's with the silence? I thought you read that Star Wars Bible cover to cover?

Octo got them all correct. I don't know the answer to #5.
