20. Did You Know: The biggest secret of The Empire Strikes Back remained just that until the film was released? Instead of having David Prowse, who plays Darth Vader, reveal “I am your father,” Lucas had him say, “Obi Wan is your father.” Lucas later had James Earl Jones dub the now famous line “I am your father.” Thus, the biggest secret of the trilogy would not be leaked before the movie premiere.

89. Who is Grand Moff Tarkin? Answer: His name might not ring a bell right away, but Grand Moff Tarkin is the brains behind the Death Star. He’s also the one who, while Vader held Princess Leia back in Star Wars: A New Hope, approved blowing up Leia’s home planet of Alderaan to test the Death Star’s effectiveness. Despite his lofty goals to ensure the Dark Side took control over the galaxy, Grand Moff Tarkin was killed when the Death Star was blown up by Luke Skywalker.
