Let’s play guess the movie/series!
The movie starts with a droid getting some important Rebel information that cannot be given to the Empire at all costs. The robot escapes while the owner is captured and brought to an Imperial Star Destroyer to be interrogated by the current Sith Lord in training. Meanwhile, the robot wanders around the desert until caught by alien scavengers, and is later rescued by a young Jedi scavenger who doesn’t realize they’re a Jedi yet. Stormtroopers come and destroy the home city of the Jedi scavenger, and they in turn leave the planet on the Millennium Falcon accompanied by the bounty hunter Han Solo. After avoiding capture by the Empire by hiding near another Star Destroyer, they escape and soon find themselves under the command of Princess Leia, the commander of the Rebel forces. The Imperial Death Star starts toasting planets, so they devise a clever plan to fly a small squadron of X-wings in to attack the only weak point of the Death Star. One of these pilots is a big fat guy who we kinda like but he dies off as they fly close to the surface of the Death Star because why not. The really important X-wing pilot lives, though, which is a good thing because he hits the critical spot that causes the Death Star to blow up. Everyone celebrates and the protagonist goes off to consult an old Jedi master.
