it was a clone of palpatine's body,but with the real palpatine's soul,because he learned how to pass his spirit from one body to other.i think that's the reason why he doesn't matters if luke kills him in episode VI,if that happened,he would return in a younger body and with luke turnedto the dark side.


also another fact,c-3po "dies" in a cave in an unknown world long after luke's death and when he's destroyed two alien kids that had been hearing his stories until that momment found behind him luke's lightsaber.

Actually, this is barely cannon. It is only mentioned in Storyteller, and never talked about again in any other book or comic. And this is another case of killing off one of the characters that could live the longest. Always pisses me off that the characters that could live the longest die first. Chewbacca being the worst of these cases.

And on top of that, it was in the Star Wars: Tales series, where most of the stories are ambiguously canon.

Since we're on that note, I might also point out that none of the Rebel Alliance ships were never mentioned either. Except for the T-47s and X-wings (I'm not even sure the X-wings got a specific name).

There isn't time in a movie to say all the names. But the x-wing was mentioned once. The Tie Interceptor, Tie Bomber, Lambda Class Shuttle and others were also not named either.

it's not a fun fact,but it's a fact: Mas Amedda knew Palpatine was the dark lord of the sith from the begining of his chancelorship and was one of the few persons Palpatine considered a friend.

I find your lack of sources... disturbing. As far as I knew, Amedda was not aware of Palpatine being a sith lord, and both Palpatine and Amedda were trying to manipulate eachother (not really something friends do IMO). Amedda may have known that Palpatine was trying to create the empire, but I doubt he knew he was a Sith. However this is just what I recall from memory, so I could be wrong.

Fun Fact:

In the Phantom Menace, when they were starting to direct the scene for the arrival on Tatooine and finding Anakin and all that, the actress for Padme (Natalie Portman) broke her ankle the night before and so for the next two weeks she walked with a limp. You can actually see it in the movie itself. Just thought that would be an interesting trivia tip for you guys.

Fun Fact: You may have seen the ETs in the Vote of No Confidence scene in the Phantom Menace, but did you know that they were included because of a promise between George Lucas and Steven Spielberg - that if Spielberg included a Yoda cameo in ET, Lucas would include an ET cameo in his next Star Wars film?

Yeah, I was listening to some of the commentary last night and that's what one of the directors said and after he said it, I immediately recognized it. I've seen the first episode a thousand times and have never spotted that before.
