OK an easy one as busy today- What major hit of 1980 was allegedly written about facial contortions made whilst masturbating?

i'll do a quickie.

how many people played Darth Vader in the first three star wars. and for bonus points what did they do?

Weyland · Post by **Weyland** » Fri Aug 22, 2008 9:17 pm

(by first three, assuming you mean ANH, TEST and ROTJ

)

Okay, David Prowse played him in the tall black cloak and coal scuttle, which was dubbed over by James Earl Jones. And a bloke called Sebastian Shaw played him unmasked and as a force ghost at the end of ROTJ.

I expect there were also various stunt doubles, but I've no idea who they were.

Dave Prowse was the Green Cross Code Man for all the oldies on here.

Never could work out why they dubbed over Dave's broad West Country accent....

Surely they could have done Somerset Wars and had The Wurzels doing the theme music.

YoungKai · Post by **YoungKai** » Sun Aug 24, 2008 11:01 am

there were apparently 4 not including stunt doubles:

1) Mr Prowse was the body

2) Sebastian Shaw was the face

3) JEJ was the voice

4) Another voice actor, whos name i couldnt find, who did all the heavy breathing!

any hardcore starwars geeks/fans feel free to correct me. untill then, over to anyone.
