Stormtrooper Effect

Imperial Stormtroopers in the original Star Wars trilogy, despite overwhelming numbers, professional military education and training, full armour, military-grade firepower, and noticeable combat effectiveness against non-speaking characters, were incapable of seriously harming or indeed even hitting the film's protagonists. At one point Obi-Wan Kenobi even comments on Stormtrooper effectiveness to Luke Skywalker when the pair find the destroyed Jawa sandcrawler, saying "These blast-points... Only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise." In fact, at the beginning of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, the Stormtroopers are portrayed as lethal when invading a rebel ship, overwhelming it and killing most resistance in what seems like mere moments, whereas later the main protagonists would dispatch many of them without ever receiving a scratch in return.

The Red Shirt Effect

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redshirt_(character)

In the original 1966 Star Trek series, security officers, who wear red, meet tragic ends in many episodes. Typically, a landing party includes at least one red-shirted security officer accompanying the main characters. The officer is typically killed soon after the mission begins.[2]

In the Pocket Books Star Trek novel Killing Time, a time-tampering plot twist turns Captain James T. Kirk into an ensign. While he is dressing for duty, a fellow crew member says, "Let's just say that on this ship — or probably any other — you don't want to wear a red shirt on landing-party duty."[3] Similar sentiments are expressed by a security officer in the third issue of the Star Trek: Mission's End comic book series, when he confronts Doctor McCoy and Chekov over the perception that crew members wearing blue or gold seem to have a much higher probability of survival.

In the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine book Legends of the Ferengi, an entry comparing the life-span of various beings with the shelf life of gold-pressed latinum includes the entry "Lifespan of a Federation hew-mon working for Starfleet security (who for some reason are called red-shirts even though they wear yellow): Rarely survive beyond the second act break".[4]

In the Family Guy episode "I Never Met the Dead Man", this concept is parodied with Ensign Ricky, the token redshirt. Kirk outlines that an upcoming mission is dangerous with a high probability of one of them dying. As such, his choice of landing party is himself, Mr. Spock, Doctor McCoy, and Ensign Ricky; Ricky, aware of the fate of redshirts, simply replies, "Aww crap." The viewer is then surprised when William Shatner, who plays Kirk, is run over by Meg in the family car. Ensign Ricky, among the spectators, comments, "Wow, did not see that coming."

i'm pretty sure that's not it

it referes to this i think

 

Stormtrooper: Let me see your identification.
Obi-Wan: [with a small wave of his hand] You don't need to see his identification.
Stormtrooper: We don't need to see his identification.
Obi-Wan: These aren't the droids you're looking for.
Stormtrooper: These aren't the droids we're looking for.
Obi-Wan: He can go about his business.
Stormtrooper: You can go about your business.
Obi-Wan: Move along.
Stormtrooper: Move along... move along.

The most recent Stormtrooper pic was "missing all their targets since the beginning of the Empire". There was one with "Those were the droids you were looking for" earlier, though. I figured he was talking about the most recent one :P
