10 Amazing Hidden Messages In Popular Movies

Keeping that in mind - do you like this proposed Star Wars spinoff movie storyline? Does it sound like a fitting compliment to the upcoming "Episodes", which should play out as more traditional Star Wars film narrati


Considering how many directors give themselves cameos in the background of their biggest blockbusters, you would think George Lucas would have joined in on the fun at some point. But the writer and director waited until Revenge of the Sith to make his triumphant debut, painted blue to play the blue-skinned Baron Papanoida, alongside his daughter, Katie. It's a tiny cameo, but both of the characters ended up getting a lot more screen time in the animated Clone Wars - unfortunately, Lucas didn't reprise his r


When Luke's friends are used as bait to draw him to Cloud City, the young Jedi catches just a glimpse of them before the trap is sprung. But when the scene was filmed, the actor who was supposed to wrestle Leia out of the hallway was a no-show. Actor Jeremy Bulloch saved the day, taking off his Boba Fett armor, and throwing on an Imperial uniform. It's a rare look at the man who actually played the part under the Mandalorian's famous helmet, but Bulloch got another cameo in Revenge of the Sith , piloting the Rebel Blockade Runner that would kick off the original tril


Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher are all locked in as Han Solo, Luke Skywalker and Leia Solo, respectively - but recent rumors have suggested that other characters from the franchise's past could be coming back as well. But the question remains: is revisiting the past a welcome bit of nostalgia, or is it the same kind of misstep that the prequel films m


Most movie audiences head to the theater to see a story exactly as its told, without looking too closely at the plots, characters, or lines of dialogue. But for the diehard fans always searching for added meaning, some twists, names, or confusing quotes can make even a classic Movie Behind The Scenes|Https://Movietriviafocus.Com/ twice as much fun to wa


In the world of Star Wars , even an opera or ballet is unrecognizable, shown as a variety of liquid spheres in Revenge of the Sith . It's during a performance of "Squid Lake" ( really ) that Anakin first learns the power of the Dark Side from Chancellor Palpatine, taking his first step towards becoming Darth Vader. His temptation should have been obvious, too: when Darth Plagueis is first mentioned, the shot cuts to the large sphere of liquid in front of the men. Look closely at the water's reflections, and you'll notice a ghostly image of Darth Vader's famous helmet (look for the eyes first). We give the effects team bonus points for keeping it subtle, but a cool case of foreshadowing all the s


Anakin's turn to the Dark Side may have been a long time coming, but he didn't waste time becoming evil, slaying the Jedi younglings on his first mission as Darth Vader. But one young Jedi ends up standing out, taking on a handful of clone troopers in front of Bail Organa before falling to blaster fire. George Lucas wasn't happy just giving himself and his daughter a cameo - the young boy is his son, Jett. The character's name is Zett Jukassa, and he's no random hero, either: he actually first appeared in Episode 2 when Obi-wan was searching for the planet the killer clones were grown


Though Obi-Wan's ghost already played a role in the original trilogy (embodied by the late, great Sir Alec Guinness), as L-R correctly points out, Hayden Christensen was CGI-surgically implemented into George Lucas' redux of Return of the Jedi in replacement of original Human-Vader actor, Sebastian Shaw. In that sense, McGregor's slot in franchise is pretty secure, should the filmmakers choose to go in that direction. After all, for a younger generation of fans, McGregor IS Obi-


Just by making the original Star Wars series, George Lucas wound up inventing ILM and Skywalker Sound, industry-leading studios for special effects and music. ILM tends to get the most headlines, so the director decided to even the scales, including the logo for Skywalker Sound in Attack of The Clones . It's clearly visible during Anakin and Obi-wan's Coruscant chase, rotating as one of a dozen other neon signs in the entertainment district. Shameless promotion from the effects team for their audio colleagues, but we'll allow


Look, in my own opinion, I've never been a big fan of prequels/sequels that go out of their way to shoehorn every single familiar or fan-favorite character into the new narrative. Prequel appearances by characters like C-3PO and R2D2 (oh-so-conveniently present in the saga of Anakin Skywalker as they were in the saga of Luke Skywalker) still irks me almost as much as Jar-Jar Binks. On the other hand: an appearance by Ghost Palpatine is intriguing, since we've never seen Sith ghosts onscreen before - and if we're going that route, an appearance by trust-old Obi-Wan's spirit doesn't seem like all that bad of a cameo to


Mind you, neither of those stories (or the latest "update) claimed a Star Wars Anthology film about Obi-Wan Kenobi is a done deal - just that it's an idea that IS, in fact, being explored by Lucasfilm. Obi-Wan is also bit like Boba Fett, in that he's a popular character who played a key role in the first two Star Wars live-action movie trilogies, as well as the Star Wars: Clone Wars animated series (which is still part of the Star Wars franchise's official canon) and various other Star Wars media (novels, comic books, video games, etc.). That lends more credibility to the rumor him getting his own spin
