Lando's Sullustan co-pilot during the Battle of Endor is actually speaking Kenyan. Two Blade Runner spinners can be seen going in different directions below the landing platform in the establishing shot of the "Going back to Naboo" scene in TPM.

As much of a problem I have with Lucas's creative choices I hail him for his 'fuck you' to Hollywood. It takes balls to be so brave, it helps to have the money to do it with but I respect it nonetheless.

The Jedi commlinks are actually womens razors.

If you look closely in TPM, when they're eating at Shmi's, you can see two mini vacs inside a foot massager hanging on the wall behind them.

George was riding with a female friend when they hit a bump in the road. His friend said "I think we just hit a wookiee." That's where George got the name.

Ben Kenobi's lightsaber is actually a WWII grenade and some faucet parts.

The little silver dips on the jedi training remote are rims from a model truck.

Luke's lightsaber is made from an old camera flashbulb handle.

During the filming of TPM, Qui-gons moustache got lost in a sandstorm.

The word 'Jedi' comes from the Japanese term Jidai Geki, meaning period or Samurai film.

Carrie Fisher's bust was taped while ANH was filmed so she wouldn't 'bounce'. She was also completely stoned throughout the shoot.

the "I think we just hit a wookie" line is from THX 1138. Two guards driving a transporter say it.
