This week we have less posts from the cast and crew, but again Pablo Hidalgo makes numerous clarifications on the Star Wars universe.

On the controversy of the Death Star dish being installed in the Rogue One teaser, although it has already been seen in place during Revenge of the Sith:

@hanburgundy77 that’s not the dish being built. It’s the socket for the dish. — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 8, 2016

@FreddyLovesKarl 1) It’s not twice as big. 2) They figured out the part that was taking so long. — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 8, 2016

@Gen_Kenobi896 @FreddyLovesKarl The 900 km figure fell apart during the making of the Haynes Guide. So we went back to the VFX size. — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 8, 2016

@KjamesN@starwars The socket frame was there. The cannon wasn’t. And this is not the first cannon being laid in. It was noticed. Discussed — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 9, 2016

On Darth Plagueis:

@moribito2 It never came up. — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 13, 2016

Had they asked, or if it was relevant to the story, I’d be happy to fill them in. https://t.co/AHDoqj11V3 — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 13, 2016

On the color of the Star Destroyers in the R1 teaser:

@HawksFan281 What color do you think they are in ANH? — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 8, 2016

.@HawksFan281 This feels like it can be the next Internet blue dress / white dress thing. pic.twitter.com/rPhBvb8ab7 — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 8, 2016

On the Knights of Ren:

@JudeGore If they’re Force-users, sure. But we don’t know if they are. — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 8, 2016

@JudeGore Just Kylo. Snoke isn’t a KoR. — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 8, 2016

On how to pronounce AT-AT:

On fan’s favorite Constable Zuvio:

@iNathanMcKnight There was no Zuvio footage. He was only a background alien. He did not feature in any scenes. — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 9, 2016

On the characters being used in the standalone movies and if we can see them in the saga episodes:

@pablohidalgo so i guess we’re never getting obi-wan kenobi then.. — amazing amy (@fassbendy) April 9, 2016

@StarWarsFan93 @fassbendy I can’t keep people from jumping to whatever conclusions they want. 🙂 — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 10, 2016

On Ben Mendelsohn’s character being Admiral Thrawn:

@nairmak_gren It’s like an unwanted pattern recognition mutation. These folks probably spot a pantheon of gods in tortilla shells. — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 10, 2016



On the EU and Mara Jade:

.@ARMeneely As with anything from the EU, if a storyteller had a compelling story to tell that fit with current continuity, it’s possible. — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 9, 2016

@mrs_moog @ARMeneely Well, she’s certainly not Luke’s wife. George never thought that to be the case. — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 9, 2016

On the ship Rey sees leaving Jakku:

Because there seems to be a lot of questions going around: This is the ship design that Rey sees leaving Jakku. pic.twitter.com/DsydJMMven — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 11, 2016

@alexjmarty @maxpalas @MarissaTalchi the ship was designed for a scene where Rey, scrubbing some scrap, watches a family take off from Jakku — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 11, 2016

@alexjmarty @maxpalas @MarissaTalchi Until you see the front of the ship; they don’t look alike at all. 🙂 — Pablo Hidalgo (@pablohidalgo) April 11, 2016

John Boyega has a message to Lupita Nyong’o:

The latest fun from Mark Hamill 🙂

A long time ago (last week I think) In a galaxy far, far way(@PinewoodStudios ) THIS happened! Happy Birthday Daisy! pic.twitter.com/dYc9j65YBD — Mark Hamill (@HamillHimself) April 10, 2016

Maybe my part will be twice as big #FingersCrossed https://t.co/X821Ol5qjS — Mark Hamill (@HamillHimself) April 14, 2016

Daisy Ridley on her birthday:

Daisy is grateful for the MTV award. Definitely deserved!

Quite often I think about the incredible people I’ve been able to meet and the insane things I’ve been able to do in my life and it kind of throws me cause like… It’s just a crazy thing to get my head around. Trying to balance staying present while relishing every amazing memory. So, so lucky and thankful #putyourlightsabersintheairifyoujustDOcare A photo posted by @daisyridley on Apr 14, 2016 at 3:50pm PDT
