Prowse To The People

in an alternate universe, David Prowse went from playing manservant Julian in A Clockwork Orange to playing Clark Kent / The Man of Steel in a Superman movie (apologies to Christopher Reeve)

but being the body of Darth Vader was a decent consolation prize

thank you David. best in peace big man

Take That Guy

Ever wonder what is was like to be in Star Wars, even if the role was smaller than your butthole, and what life after being in Star Wars was like??? Director/writer/editor Jon Spira wisely answered this question and interviewed 10 of these lucky souls (and we’re lucky he documented these peoples stories before these peoples and their experiences passed on in life)

So the question is, do you want to know what it was like to be…

David Prowse – the body, but not the voice of Darth Vader???

prowse vade

or course you do!

how bout Paul Blake – HE SHOT SECOND!!!! – as Greedo???

paul bkajke

(although they never touch that HOT topic)

Jeremy Bulloch is the body of Boba, but can you believe this is the guy under that helmet???

jeremy boba

he’s slick & cool in a different way!

or that creepy pilot (Angus MacInnes) who crept behind Leia?

Angus MacInnes

duh!  and you’d learn why he kept looking down while piloting an X-wing

look down agnes gold leader

and you will NEVER be able to unlearn it and you will never look at his scenes the same!

or how about poor Garrick Hagon who had a big role as Biggs Darklighter??

biggs

dude got the shaft, but dude is STILL all class

or what about the guy (Anthony Forrest) who said ‘these aren’t the droids we’re looking for‘??

Anthony Forrest

did you know he also had another role in the film that was also cut too??  YOU PROBABLY DIDN’T!!!

or how about Laurie Goode – who MAY be the stormtrooper who hit his head on the blast door!!!???

stormtrooper goode laure

these are the stories Harrison, Carrie or Mark CANNOT tell us!

what about a rare woman in the cast - Pam Rose???

pam rose

(although to be honest, I’ve never seen her blink and you missed it part in the Cantina)

or what about the dude in the hat who handed out medals!!!???

derek lyons star wars

I mean, doesn’t that dude (Derek Lyons) deserve to tell his story??? (although he kinda comes off sounding a lot like David Brent, which is amazing in its own way)

or what about some random extra (John Chapman)??

john chapman

who has even upset the c-list Star Wars actors as trying to pass himself off as being a Star Wars actor… but he IS a Star Wars actor, even if he was juss an extra!

you LOVE Star Wars and these people were IN Star Wars and they have stories about life before, during and after Star Wars, and you need to hear them.  And if you don’t think so, I may have to FORCE this on to be with you
