Easter eggs

I've noticed 3 easter eggs on KoTOR, which refer to the SW movies :

Komad Fortuna
Doesn't this name remember you anything? Remember the male twi'lek who stands with Jabba the Hutt on RoTJ : his name is Bip Fortuna

Bendak Starkiller
This one is not as known as the first I think : Starkiller should have been the last name of Luke, but it has been replaced by Skywalker, as Lucas finally didn't like the "killer" inside the name.

Cassus Fett's Armor
Errrr, do I really have to explain? Ok-Ok : Jango & Bobba Fett, you got them?

There are certainly more, if you find them, just post them

Whimpering Locker

In the Research Facility at Hrakert Rift, there is a whimpering locker that freaks out if you talk to him...At one point he said to me something about me being "Lunchie Munchies" for the Crazed Selkath...

I know this is from a movie or cartoon or something, but I don't remember what, it's been driving me nuts for a week now...Can anybody tell me?

I would say that these are somewhat coincidental...
There is also the entire Oragana family on Taris...Which is Leia's name... Really it's like most last names nowadays...rather meaningless, therefore somewhat repetitive...

Similarly if you listen to any of the alien languages there is probably only about 50 seperate phrases for all the languages put together, and about as many voice actors for the whole set...This is for several reasons I'm sure...Money, obviously, you cannot be paying voide actors to spend all their time recording meaningless phrases...So, there second reason is that they are meaningless...therefore, no need to make them sound meaningful, it's what the subtitles say that counts...Finally, like I said about the names, it's repetetive because it's meaningless...

anyway, that's just my little rambling for the day. I would not really call those easter eggs, more like similarities...Eastereggs are goofy things you can get to happen or do that are really just the creators trying to break up the monotony of programming...Like the Rakata Attacking the overly powerful Gizka. Or how you are always finding bantha fodder in goofy places...

Ya, I believe Fett is a mandolorian clan.... I could be wrong though.
