Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which signature "Star Wars" theme, heard prominently in all six films of the saga, accompanies the Episode IV: "A New Hope" scene featuring Luke at his Aunt and Uncle's moisture farm, gazing out at Tatooine's binary sunset?

Answer: The Force Theme

"The Force Theme (May the Force Be With You)" is one of the most recognizable themes of the saga. Though it is often heard in subtler versions, there is at least one scene in each of the six films where a dramatic rendition is played, such as the above-described Binary Sunset scene in Episode IV and Darth Vader's traditional Jedi cremation in Episode VI.

"Luke's Theme" is an alternative name given to the main title. "The Moisture Farm" is a title from the soundtrack, but it is not the theme you are looking for. "Binary Sunset," not "Tatooine Sunset," is an alternate title of "The Force Theme."
2. As depicted on Episode IV, Chalmun's Cantina in Mos Eisley, Tatooine really jives with the musical stylings of Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes. What type of music does this all-Bith band play?

Answer: Jizz

Chalmun's Cantina got a facelift in the 1997 Special Edition release in the original trilogy; some of the formerly seen aliens such as Lak Sivrak (a Shistavanen Wolfman) were replaced with new puppets. If you look closely, the two new characters actually have the same head; one was just turned backwards and given a turban to form a second Mos Eisley denizen.
3. "Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope." (Episode IV: "A New Hope") The musical leitmotif that plays upon Luke's discovery of the hologram speaking these words is the theme for what Rebel leader?

Answer: Leia

Princess Leia is represented in this beautiful leitmotif used throughout the original Trilogy, and in Episode III. A leitmotif is a musical theme symbolizing a certain character, object, or setting. John Williams used leitmotifs quite frequently in his compositions for the "Star Wars" films.

While Mon Mothma is a primary leader of the Rebel Alliance and has a part in Episode VI, no theme song is associated with her. Padme is Leia's mother from the Prequel trilogy, and Queen Breha of Alderaan is Leia's adoptive mother.
4. Episode IV closes with the medal ceremony in the throne room of an ancient Massassi temple on Yavin IV, where Luke and Han are awarded medals following the Battle of Yavin. What song from this scene provides a rousing end to the saga's first installment?

Answer: The Throne Room

Luke Skywalker and Han Solo were awarded medals for their crucial roles in the destruction of the Empire's dreaded Death Star, which had brought total annihilation upon Princess Leia's homeworld, Alderaan. The Massassi temple where the ceremony took place later becomes the site of Luke's New Jedi Order academy, according to the Expanded Universe novels.

"The Throne Room" is also played during the closing credits of Episode III: "Revenge of the Sith," providing an excellent lead-in to its sequel, made 28 years earlier. The first part this song is basically a sped-up version of "The Force Theme."
5. "The Imperial March (Darth Vader's Theme)" made its debut in which episode?

Answer: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back

It's hard to believe that there is no Imperial March in Episode IV! There are certain themes representative of the Empire that are vaguely reminiscent of this Dark Lord's theme, but "The Imperial March" isn't heard until Episode V. It appears in the subsequent film, "Return of the Jedi," as well as in the Prequel films.
6. What theme, introduced in Episode V: "The Empire Strikes Back" and also featured in Episode VI, accompanies Han Solo and Princess Leia's romance?

Answer: Han Solo and the Princess

This theme does not appear in any of the Prequel films, since it is primarily used to represent Han Solo and/or his relationship with Leia. In the Expanded Universe, Han Solo and Princess Leia marry a few years after Episode VI and have three children: twins Jacen and Jaina, and Anakin (named after Leia's father). Only one of their children has survived the terrible crises that have befallen the galaxy.
7. This diminutive Dagobah denizen and Jedi Master, first appearing in Episode V, is associated with a gentle, unique theme appearing in some variation in five of the "Star Wars" films.

Answer: Yoda

"Yoda's Theme" can only be heard in its entirety on the official soundtrack release and during the closing credits of Episode V. In Episodes V, VI, and I, Yoda was a puppet both puppeteered and voiced by Frank Oz. Episodes II and III featured a new CG version of Yoda, capable of taking part in high-action lightsaber duels.

Windu and Plo Koon are Jedi Masters from the Prequel trilogy, neither of whom survive Episode III. "The Force Theme" is considered to be Obi-Wan's theme. But of course, Obi-Wan is neither diminutive, Dagobahian, nor introduced in Episode V.
8. Episode VI: "Return of the Jedi" reveals the long-kept secret of twins separated at birth - Luke and Leia. What sweeping melody accompanies this revelation and is the theme for the newfound brother and sister?

Answer: Luke and Leia

Luke and Leia were separated after their birth and the subsequent death of their mother, Padme Amidala. Upon being told of their kinship, Leia reveals that she had somehow always known that she and Luke were brother and sister. Like her brother, Leia has abilities with the Force, evidenced in her memories of her mother.

In the novels following Episode VI, Leia is eventually trained as a Jedi Knight.
9. Two songs from Episode VI received a major overhauling in the 1997 Special Edition release. One was the song performed by The Max Rebo Band at Jabba the Hutt's palace, which ends abruptly as Jabba sends his slave girl Oola to her death. What is the name of the re-written version of this song, formerly "Lapti Nek"?

Answer: Jedi Rocks

Considering that the Jedi have been virtually eradicated from the galaxy for 23 years, "Jedi Rocks" is an odd title; it must be an old song. It is sung by a new CG version of Sy Snootles, formerly a puppet. The new-and-improved Max Rebo Band also includes three new backup singers (Greeata Jendowanian, Rystáll Sant, Lyn Me), as well as a new CG Joh Yowza. "Jedi Rocks" was not composed by John Williams, but by Jerry Hey.
10. Another segment of Episode VI's soundtrack redone for 1997's Special Edition is the musical accompaniment to the Ewok celebration at the film's close, leading into the credits. Now "Victory Celebration," what was the Ewokese tune from the original 1983 release known as?

Answer: Yub Nub

Episode VI received some Prequel touches, as well, in the 2004 DVD release. During the new "Victory Celebration" song, we are now shown scenes of planets that played important roles throughout the saga: Tatooine, Bespin, Naboo, and Coruscant - complete with the Jedi Temple in the background and a statue of Emperor Palpatine being torn down. Also, during the festivities on Endor, as Luke witnesses the presences of his father, Obi-Wan, and Yoda in the Force: Anakin Skywalker has been restored to the youthful Jedi he once was.

"A New Hope" is the finale of Episode III: "Revenge of the Sith." "Parade of the Ewoks" is a theme of Episode VI and features in the credits, but it does not accompany the celebration.
