After watching all the Star Wars films I couldn't help but wonder this....


When did any of the movies characters eat? As well as use the bathroom? I wonder how Darth Vader ever shit? Did anyone else ever wonder why nobody in the film ever seemed hungry or thirsty? And if they even used bathrooms similar to how we on earth do?

reply

We saw Luke and his guardians eat and drank in ANH and he ate in ESB with Yoda. He drank blue milk again in one of the later sequels. Maybe some of them ate during their times at the Ewok village in ROTJ.

As for bathroom, we never see that kind of thing in space movies. 2001: A Space Odyssey showed the guy at the start reading how to use it on the spaceship. TV show Red Dwarf mentioned toilets a few times and I'm sure The Orville would have done something there.

I imagine Vader had some kind of thing installed which extracted waste, since his suit was crucial for his survival.

Of course they do, but since eating and shitting are not important to the story, we don't need to watch them doing it.

reply

it may be possible to assume that when the Falcon floated away with the rest of the garbage in Empire, that included some waste disposal material

plus the blue milk

and there were a few people getting drunk in the Cantina. wrt sh*tting, Darth Vaders suit had many functions

leia had a bag of cheerios on endor she gave some to wickett

I’ve wondered too. Lol

But we only see them for a few moments out of the day. They take care of the normal stuff in between.

I also assume Vader does it in his suit.

force extraction

it's one of the Jedi tricks that Disney didn't cover in 7 8 or 9

also they were about to have a 3 courser in Cloud City, Han got pissed of because Vader had pinched all the hors d'oeuvres

reply

I'm pretty happy I never saw an Ewok shit in the woods thank you.

that's why one of the AT-ST's lost traction and wobbled, it wasn't really the roly logs

reply

It was definitely a log of some sort. 😉

But have you seen the Ewok/Wookie sex-tapes???
