Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Forrest Gump's accounts in this quiz are solely based on his observations. Therefore, Forrest only tells the story according to what he saw or what he thought he saw. Your job is to interpret each account using your knowledge of the "Star Wars" movies. You do not need to know the plotline of the 1994 movie "Forrest Gump" to answer the questions from this quiz. However, in order to make the correct interpretations, you must know that Forrest has an IQ of 75, and he has a limited understanding of his surroundings. This forces him to look at his surroundings with his heart more so than with his mind.
Let us begin with this account from Forrest:
"Hello. My name's Forrest, Forrest Gump. You know, my Mama always told me that the hottest place she could imagine was that convenience store three blocks from our old house. Turned out, she was wrong. Y'see, I once came to this desert place. I saw all these weird creatures, and they told me that there are two suns there."
To which of these planets does Forrest most likely refer?
2. "After a while, it started to become windy in that hot place. It even felt like sand was hitting me evr'ywhere. The good thing was, the sand stopped hitting after a couple of hours. I didn't have no place to live in, so I slept on one of these benches. I slept and slept and slept, until I heard some kind of engine noise. That noise sure did wake me up. The next thing I knew, I was watching some kind of race. I could even see one of those weird creatures with two heads. I could understand what the first head was saying, but I think the other head has some speech disorder because I didn't understand a word he said."
We know that Forrest was watching the Boonta Eve Podrace seen in "The Phantom Menace". But what were the names of the two-headed announcer that he described?
3. "I stayed in that same desert place for another ten years or so. After that, one of them pilots sent me to this other place they called Coruscant. For the first time, I actually rode on an airplane. They all said it was frightening to fly, but I didn't think so. There was this one time though, when our airplane almost hit this man with a blue helmet while he was playing this dart game. Believe me, that man sure could fly. Good thing that the pilot made a turn before hitting him, 'cause if he got hit, he couldn't target the bullseye."
Forrest refers to Jango Fett using the Kamino saberdart to kill a fellow bounty hunter, Zam Wessell. What is the name of Zam's species?
4. "For no particular reason, them pilots asked me to transfer to the biggest airplane I've seen. To tell you the truth, I saw a familiar face in that airplane. He won that race that I told you about in that desert place. I also saw this robot thing with blue stripes and this girl."
Forrest is riding on the AA-9 Coruscant Freighter that is destined to transport refugees to a certain planet. What is the name of the current ruler of the planet to which the ship is going?
5. "After getting off that giant airplane, because I didn't have no place to live in, I just went looking for them pilots to send me anywhere they went. I did this for twenty-two years, until I found this place they called Yavin, where I stayed for a little while. Oh, and you won't believe what I'm about to tell you. Y'know that familiar face from that giant airplane that I told you about? They said he turned into some robot. Must be hard for him livin' like a human. I wonder how I'd feel if I was a robot."
So, who exactly is this "robot" that Forrest keeps babbling about?
6. "While I was there at Yavin, I looked at the sky once, and I saw this great display of fireworks. It was big, but I didn't see too many colors. Right during the fireworks, I also saw some airplanes landing at the same location. Since I didn't have nothing to do, I just came running to that place where the airplanes landed. It took me a while to get there, but when I got there, I saw this giant building. I tried to get in, but one of them guards said that I was too late for the medal ceremony."
That medal ceremony was held in honor of the heroes of the Battle of Yavin. Due to their brave actions during the aforementioned battle, Luke Skywalker and Han Solo were presented medals by Princess Leia and General Dodonna. The question is, what is the first name of General Dodonna?
7. "Even though I stayed in Yavin longer than in any other place for the past twenty-two years, I only stayed there for about ten days. On the tenth day, the people from that giant building told me to come with them. They even taught me how to fly airplanes, especially the ones where the wings look like the letter X. But after three years, even though I already learned how to fly all kinds of airplanes, they didn't let me fight during that huge battle when we went to that cold, white place."
Who was Rogue 4 during the "huge battle" that Forrest briefly described?
8. "While I was flying one of those airplanes when they finally allowed me to, I got lost. So I landed on the nearest place that I could find. I didn't know what the place was actually called, so I just called it Cloud City because I sure did see a lot of clouds there. So I stayed in Cloud City for a little while, but I didn't do much. The only thing that I remember was this voice that I heard. No one else seemed to have heard it because whenever I asked anyone if they heard it, they always said 'no'. I guess I could hear pretty well. And just in case you want to know what the voice said, it was somethin' like, 'No, I am your father.' Y'know what? I think he just found his son."
I think what Forrest is saying is easy to understand. So, if I may ask, what is the name of the aide of the Baron Administrator of Cloud City during the time of Forrest's description?
9. "Because I couldn't find anything to do in Cloud City, I decided to travel with my airplane and go back to that desert place. The problem was, I didn't know how to get there. So I asked one of them pilots to teach me how to get there. Eventually, the pilot told me that the desert planet's called Tatooine. When I finally got there, I saw this weird circle thing with some kind of moving tentacles on its side. My mama always told me not to talk to strangers. Because the creature wouldn't talk to me, I just ran away. He didn't seem friendly at all."
In which of these locations was Forrest stationed, according to his above account?
10. "I couldn't come up with a reason on why I should stay on Tatooine, so I decided to travel again. This time, I got myself into this huge battle. I didn't really want to fight them airplanes, so I entered this sphere shaped thing that I saw. When I came in, I couldn't believe what my eyes saw. That person who won the race back in Tatooine was there. I was about to talk to him, but I realized that someone else was talking to him. Also, because I saw everyone running around and leaving that place, I decided to do that too. I didn't know where to go, so I told myself that I should go back to our old house. You know how I got back? I just opened my eyes and for some weird reason, I got back home."
Forrest made his way to the interior of the Second Death Star. The question is, who was the commander of the Second Death Star?
