    In Empire Strikes Back, a guy shows up on camera for maybe a second or two carrying what appears to be an ice cream maker. He now has his own backstory as Willrow Hood and it turns out it was a computer memory core that he was hiding away for the Rebel Alliance. Any character, no matter how small in any of the films had to have an elaborate backstory added, because people were so desperate for new Star Wars stuff in the time between the OT and the Prequels.

      oh would i love to see a Willrow Hood movie with like a Terry Crews running around Cloud City with an ice cream maker because of a misunderstanding with Lando, written by Larry David. And the sound track would have a baseline that would make Kaja Googoo blush.

        OMG! If I owned a studio I would geen light that in a heartbeat. Unfortunately, all I own is 1978 Ford Econoline van with shag carpet and captain seats. I might be willing to trade it for the right studio, though. My DMs are open for any offers.
