John Ratzenberger?

Seriously, I don't know who and I'm a major Pixar fan.

That would be John Ratzenberger (a.k.a. "Cliff")
I think he was in all the Pixar films, from Toy Story to The Incredibles, and had a one line role in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. (As the good guys are getting ready to get-out-of-dodge from the Ice Planet Hoth. He tells them to get their gear, and get to their ships.)

He definately was no Wedge Antilles.
You can't beat Wedge

Jeremy, that was an awesome essay. I've always liked Wedge myself.

He is also the subject of the #1 Suggestive Line from Star Wars, you know:
Pull out, Wedge. You're not doing any good back there.

From Star-Wars-dot-com

In Decipher's Star Wars Customizable Card Game, Major Bren Derlin's card comes with an odd biographical tidbit: "At the Mos Eisley Cantina, everyone knows his name." If you're scratching your head over this odd link between the sweltering desert world of Tatooine and the icy planet Hoth, don't bother looking through your Star Wars novels and comics. It's a joke -- an allusion by Decipher to the fact that John Ratzenberger, a bit player in The Empire Strikes Back, would go on to star for more than a decade in Cheers, one of the most popular TV sitcoms in American history, set in a bar where, as the song goes, everyone knows your name.

Thanks Nathan,
I liked crafting that essay. (I got into many a geeky argument with "Star Wars Fans" (most of whom were born AFTER Star Wars (BASW) and had only seen these wonderful films on videotape) in college. So I used a lot of that material in the article.)

Then add the perspective which Kevin Smith's "Clerks" provides (The Rebel Alliance being a "Left-Wing Terrorist Faction") and you got some great satire.

(but that does not discount my assertion that Wedge is the best.character.ever.)
You Can't Beat Wedge.

... even if he's not doing "any good back there" and Luke tells him to pull out of the Death Star Trench, so he can have it all to himself.
