Another double dose for you today. You may have noticed a few small changes to the site. Mostly tidying it up a bit. In January our site was hacked and ultimately had to be built back up from scratch. In the process we lost a lot of material and the old design. I only just finished re-categorizing all the strips yesterday! Anyway, if you look around you’ll see most of the changes are self-explanatory or include a description.

Also, be sure to check out Part 2 of our Death Star Inspection flashback series. Part 3 on Friday followed by a new Tarkin mini-series on Monday (also a flashback).

I highly recommend Star Wars: FACEBOOK’D — a group of friendly Star Wars fans with a great sense of humor. It’s always nice to find fans who can laugh at themselves and their hobby. Check out their great gallery of photo manipulations and what not!

Wuher the Bartender

“Werr-her”.  I’m guessing that’s how you pronounce the bartender’s name, Wuher.  I’ve never heard it spoken aloud by any official source.  Anyway, I thought it would be funny if a dead patron’s body was as big of an urgency as any typical table cleaning at such a seedy dive as the cantina.  I know… we here at Blue Milk Special are weird.

Some interesting notes.  Wuher was a British actor with a very brutish, English accent.  He was re-dubbed, as with many British speaking extras in the film with an American voice actor.  This was done for Dr. Evazan (the ugly-faced guy who harasses Luke at the bar), Commander Willard (the senior Rebel officer who greets Leia at the Massassi Templer), Chewbacca (with a growl… poor Peter Mayhew) and most famously with David Prowse’s Darth Vader being voiced by the inimitable James Earl Jones.  Another interesting note is that Greedo has a lot of lookalikes.  Of course, they could be any of his green-skinned Rodian race, but the Expanded Universe (which we often to jibe well with here at BMS) has made all sorts of speculative connections with their being his extended family.
