more Star Wars.....
Do you realise that everything that transpires in Star Wars can be atributed to the actions of one minor character- the rear gunner at the start of A New Hope. If he hadn't let the escape pod containing R2D2 and C3PO go past, then nothing else in the series could have happened. As well as touching on rasism, was Lucas also introducing his audience to the concept of Chaos Therory?

I've often thought about that rear gunner. You would think that as a rear gunner on an Imperial Star Cruiser that shooting space junk (like an empty cruiser) would be a good way to pass the time. PLUS do droids never get into escape pods? They new they were looking for stolen data, was it inconcieveable that it wouldhave been put on an escape pod? Still though, Obi Wan had his eye on Luke so I think at some point he would have sought him out droids or no.
I know now that you ripped this off from "Spaced" but I forgive you.
