Had a thought and realised that the following words are not mentioned anywhere in the OT. (And some aren't in the PT either):

Sith
Palpatine
Mandalorian
Tusken Raider
Correllia
Coruscant

Any more?

Darth Subjekt
uh...are you sure that Palpatine and Tuskens arent mentioned? I could of swore that they were...but ill have to double check.

Sesse
Midichloridian...
padawan

Darth Subjekt
oh yea....Ewoks werent mentioned.

Darth Traya
Dooku
Padme

roughrider
Boba Fett (except yelled by Han over all the music and blaster fire in ROTJ; barely make it out))
Mon Mothma
Lobot
Nien Numb

- They say Sandpeople, not Tusken Raiders. The PT referes to them both ways.

Darth Subjekt
AHHH..ok thanks...i guess I just had them mixed up. not to be "captain obvious" but since other people are saying characters...

Darth Maul, Qui-gon, Jango, watto, Shmi, Jar Jar (thank god), podracer, slave, Mustafar, clone troopers....I mean the list can just go on and on.

Jedi Council...ok...but yea, thanks for that clarification.

Blaxican_Jedi
Revan, Exar Kun, Aayla Secura..this is way to easy dude.

A shame that this thread is getting WTFpwnd by idiots going 'Hey, I'll put PT stuff and other things that aren't even in the movies!'

The idea is things that were IN the OT that weren't named and such.

Duh.

For example, Coruscant wasn't mentioned. Nor was Han mentioned to be a Corellian. And so on.

DeVi| D0do
A lot of vehicles are never refered to by name... for example: Slave One, Y-Wing, A-Wing etc... Sandcrawler.

Is Yavin ever mentioned by name?

Salacious Crum is another one...

Captain REX
I dunno if Yavin is mentioned...

Come to think of it, is "Tatooine" actually mentioned by name in the OT?

Yes, Luke discusses the rendezvous as "Tatooine" to Lando at the end of ESB

That Han isn't identified as a Corellian is true, but the original poster is wrong to say Corellia isn't mentioned, and indeed were it not for the brief use of the name in ANH the whole background for that world would never have been created.

The thing that is not mentioned that has the least need to be is Mandalorian, which has forever been an EU concept.

GL liked the name Coruscant better than his own name for the world (Had Abaddon) and so nabbed it between OT and PT.

'Sith' was in the original drafts and he always said that Vader was the Dark Lord of the Sith, but never explained wehat it meant. The EU picked it up as meaning something, and then GL pretty much changed that when the PT came out and he actually used the term on-screen.

This sort of thing happens a lot, though- for example, the name 'Mace Windu' wasn't mentioned in TPM at all.

Darth Subjekt
Yea i was just being a smart ass, I know what you meant for the thread, thats why i put ewoks...i just put some PT stuff cause someone else did...oh well.

But i was serious about the slave one though...i figured they might being as wookies were supposed to be slaves of the empire, right? Or is that only EU?

"I've outrun Imperial starships. Not the local bulk-cruisers, mind you. I'm talking about the big Corellian ships now."

Just testing. Well spotted wink

Bespin.

HAN: "Bespin. It's pretty far but I think we can make it."

(Without a functioning hyperdrive it could take decades!)

Yaddle, Queen Jamillia.

I've been needing to adjust the volume on my TV since 1983 because I've just heard bespin get mentioned by Han. Thanx Chinabing.

Twilight Janick
I don't know whether did Yaddle survive the Order 66. And Queen Jamillia isn't the Queen of Naboo by ROTS.

Darth Subjekt
Yaddle was killed after TPM supposedly.

"Uncle Owen, Aunt Beru? Uncle Owen......" - Luke when he goes back to his home after the Stormtroopers raided it.

Tangible God
Right, right. What about "Lars," then?

Actually, to correct a post, I think Palpatine was mentioned by name, but I don't think the name Sidious was.

InfiniteDY
Palpatine was never mentioned in the OT. He was always referred to as the Emperor or "Master" by Vader.

I can't remember if Mon Mothma was ever mentioned by name.

redcaped
When I first bought the emperor figure in the year 1998 and before any prequel was made it said Palpatine on the green card.

Tangible God
No, Palpatine was never called anything but MAster or the Emperor. The name was derived I believ, well after ROTJ was filmed.

And Mon Mothma was never mentioned either.

I rememebr seeing "Emperor Palpatine" written on an action figure for the first time after watching the movies, and I was like "WTF? Thats his name?"

Tangible God
Me too actually. Lucas must have made it up all ready, just couldn't fit into the script.

DarthBanevv
I think it said his name in the novelization of ANH. It was called Star Wars, from the adventures of Luke Skywalker, I believe.
