Going somewhere, Solo?
It's too late. You should have paid him when you had the chance.
Jabba's put a price on your head, so large that every bounty hunter in the galaxy will be looking for you.
I'm lucky I found you first.
If you give it to me, I might forget I found you.
Jabba's through with you. He has no time for smugglers who...
...drop their shipments at the first sign of an Imperial cruiser.
You can tell that to Jabba. He may only take your ship.
That's the idea.
I've been looking forward to killing you for a long time.

The Bechdel Test
The Prequel Trilogy cops a lot of flak from fans, and sure, a lot of it is warranted. But there are arguably some things that the Prequel Trilogy did better in over the Original, and one of them being greater representative gender equality. One common way to test for gender equality in stories is through what is known as the Bechdel Test, which simply presents 3 conditions:
- 1. The movie must have at least two women in it
- 2. Who talk to each other
- 3. About something besides a man
In the Original Trilogy, there are few women in the story, they don't talk to each other, and of course that disqualifies the last condition. In the Prequel Trilogy we do see moments such as:
* Queen Amidala speaking with her servants (including giving cryptic messages to her decoy)
* Senator Amidala speaking with Queen Jamillia about Naboo's support for the Republic (and democracy) and the possibility of reconciliation with the Separatists.
* Senator Amidala with Mon Mothma regarding corruption in the Supreme Chancellor and the Senate.

Ok that's one thing, although it is posible that all the women of Naboo may be emotionless robots.
Actually most of the people of the Republic, but anyway......

Debbie does Dallas passes the Bechdel test, it's a meaningless benchmark.
