Leia: Will someone get this big walking carpet out of my way?
Where, in the Star Wars movies, do we ever see carpet, and more specifically, 1970s-style shag carpet? The joke to film audiences in 1977 is obvious, but slightly less so in a galaxy far far away.
(Today is Orthodox Star Wars Day. More importantly, it’s also Memorial Day, and the 100th anniversary of “In Flanders Fields,” which inspired the use of the poppy as a symbol of remembrance.)
