Tribute to Nien Nunb and other Star Wars Bit Parts

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the stuff-to-laugh-at dept.

Nien Nunb writes "This Star Wars feature tries to give the little guys a leg up, like the aforementioned Nien Nunb, who only shows up for one action sequence, but he was copilot of the ship that destroyed the second Death Star. Star Wars is full of forgotten faces like his and you can see all their wretchedness here."

    Am I the only one who thought that the jedi master shown briefly in The Plotless Menace with the 6 foot long neck would be toast in any kind of lightsaber duel?

    Only here would we find the referance to Chewbaccas Father, but we also have the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special, with Carrie Fisher singing

    The torture of it all.

    Takes the cake for me, as far as bit parts go. You can tell the guy always wanted to get into movies, and this was his BIG CHANCE. He crammed as much of his life as possible into those three words. But ya know, three words just doesn't have enough space to pack that much into, especially those three.
