bathroom desing of star wars
Aunque nos estamos tomando muy en serio nuestro especial baños, aprovechando que es fin de semana y para darle un punto de desenfado al asunto, os he traído una imagen que nos revela como sería el baño de un amante de Star Wars, o más bien los azulejos de la ducha.
Se trata de un mosaico hecho con piezas de gresite, a modo de pixeles, en el que se representan de forma muy acertada una gran variedad de los personajes de la serie, como C3PO, R2D2 o Chewbacca, aunque se atisban otros como Hans Solo, y me atrevo a asegurar que seguro que también está Dark Vader y Yoda, por lo menos.
Un árduo, delicado y preciso trabajo de diseño y albañilería obra de los chicos de Jagoda Architecture, que han demostrado un manejo increíble del color y el gresite con su mosaico. Además, es una magnífica idea para decorar un baño, aunque no sea necesariamente con la misma temática de la Guerra de las Galaxias.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars, we follow the likes of Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and, created for the series, Ahsoka Tano
The Star Wars films are bursting at the seams with characters and all of us who grew up loving the likes of Hammerhead (excuse me, Momaw Nadon), Dengar and Lobot are a testament to how even the most obscure character can come to have a fanbase - and eventually, plenty of backstory.
On Star Wars: The Clone Wars, we follow the likes of Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and, created for the series, Ahsoka Tano. But there have also been a lot of other characters from the movies who have been given roles on the series, getting much more to do than we ever saw in live-action.
On the heels of The Clone Wars introducing Quinlan Vos (who was, arguably, seen in the background of a scene in The Phantom Menace) we're spotlighting some of our other favorites here. Note that we're focusing on the truly peripheral characters: most of whom didn't even speak in the films. So the likes of Mon Mothma or Bail Organa, who may have briefly appeared in the movies but were fairly notable, aren't a part of this list.
One of those perfect examples of how someone can appear so briefly, and yet get such a notable reaction is Aurra Sing. The bounty hunter appeared in a single shot of The Phantom Menace, yet she instantly had fans intrigued, with her striking chalk white skin and array of weapons. In The Clone Wars, Aurra has proven to be an awesome and dangerous villain, who shoots prisoners without hesitation and can go toe-to-toe with Jedi in battle.
One of many peripheral Jedi from the prequels to get a much-expanded role in The Clone Wars, Plo Koon is a personal favorite of supervising director Dave Filoni. In the films, he was known for sitting on the Jedi Council and being shot down and killed during Order 66. On The Clone Wars, we've seen Plo Koon as a confident, level-headed Jedi, who has a special bond with Ahsoka Tano and can deliver a bad ass line to Aurra Sing like, "You've already lost and you don't even know it." Considering Filoni's fandom for the character, we're sure there's more to come.
The Rodian Senator made some background (and holographic) appearances in Attack of the Clones, but in The Clone Wars, we learned he had deep ties to Padme – who referred to him affectionately as "Uncle." This made it all the more notable when he betrayed Padme, allowing her to be captured by Nute Gunray, only to switch sides again when he realize Gunray intended to execute her. The conflicted senator would survive Cad Bane's hostage crisis in the Senate, but would eventually be assassinated in the episode "Senate Murder."
A true example of taking something of an Easter Egg character from the films (not by intent, but simply because it's easy to miss him or not single him out) and turning him into a pretty notable player in The Clone Wars has to be Admiral Yularen. Remember all those dudes on the Death Star who sat and watched Darth Vader Force choke Admiral Motti for his disturbing lack of faith? One of them was named Yularen. And as it turns out, this same guy once worked very closely with Anakin Skywalker during the Clone Wars – perturbed by his recklessness, but respectful of his skills and determination. And probably not guessing that he'd one day sit and silently watch some serious Force chokin' going on from the same Jedi.
Despite his minimal screen time, Kit Fisto made an impression in Attack of the Clones. The green skin and dreadlock-like tentacles certainly were hard to ignore, but it was the big grin on Kit's face in the midst of battle that made him so endearing – even after we saw him quickly dispatched by Palpatine in Episode III. In The Clone Wars, Kit is given an appealing Jamaican-influenced accent, and a warm and friendly demeanor. Outside of cameos, he's only really been given the spotlight once, in Season 1's creepy "Lair of Grievous", which saw his former apprentice killed in battle with the droid general. But based on his innate likability, no doubt Kit, and his million dollar smile, will be seen again.
Lott Dod is one of the rare characters on this list who actually did speak in the films, though it was a quick moment, where he was proclaiming things like, "I object! There is no proof! This is incredible!" as Amidala spoke to the Senate about the Trade Federation's invasion of Naboo in The Phantom Menace. In The Clone Wars, we see Lott Dod as an ongoing, nefarious figure – one who constantly lies and manipulates, attempting to make the Trade Federation look good, while masking their true intentions. And to show just how nasty he can be, he personally poisoned Padme, in a failed attempt to kill her. http://laguerradelasgalaxias-starwars.blogspot.com/

Darth Vader y el fantasma de la prision comic
Star Wars: Darth Vader and the Ghost PrisonWritten by Haden Blackman
Art by Agustin Alessio
Cover Artwork by Dave Wilkins
Dark Horse Comics
Release Date: April 23, 2013
Cover Price: $24.99
Darth Vader and the Ghost Prison is a cornerstone in the Star Wars expanded universe. It is a game changer that produces one of the most intense reads. I have read a lot of Star Wars expanded universe media, and there are a bunch of great novels and comics out there that have explored the depth of the in-universe history of the galaxy from a variety of viewpoints. But Darth Vader and the Ghost Prison has to be one of most superior examples of providing a different perspective – in fact, I think it is perhaps one of the best Star Wars graphic novels I have ever read.

Darth Vader may be a fearsome Jedi master,
Kevin Winter, Getty Images
Darth Vader may be a fearsome Jedi master, but it seems even he needs some extra cash now and then. Last week, a man wearing a Darth Vader mask successfully robbed a bank in Ohio then fled the scene on a BMX bike. Did you forget where you parked your TIE fighter, Lord Vader?
According to authorities, the masked man robbed a bank in Toledo on May 23rd around 3pm and escaped with an undisclosed amount of cash. What’s more, his weapon of choice wasn’t a lightsaber. Instead, he used a semi-automatic pistol. How gauche! Doesn’t he know that blasters are clumsy and random?
Witnesses described the robber as an African-American in his mid-20s, somewhere between five feet, 10 inches and six feet tall. He was reportedly wearing a black hoodie, black sweatpants and the mask. No word on whether he was breathing heavily.
The crook is still at large, but if you see him on the streets, don’t attempt to apprehend him yourself. Instead, call the police (or Luke Skywalker) for help.
