3:51 The confirmed ( according to my understanding ) dialogue in this scene between R2 and 3PO is actually really sad. R2 apparently tells 3PO that Anakin “Doesn’t really talk to me anymore.”, and that “I don’t know what’s going on with him.” I think it’s pretty depressing that Anakin stopped treating R2 like his best buddy around this point, adds to his fall even more for me.

Nah I liked that he got his memories back but that we also saw how truly committed 3PO is to the cause and the fight. In fact it’s the only time 3PO ever seemed to care and wasn’t just complaining. Yeh it was slightly cheapened cos he got his memories back but the fact that he believed he was gonna lose all his memories and still went through with it still remains powerful, imo.

As bad as takeout deaths are, c3p0 dying in a movie as bad as Skywalker would be a crying shame, and since there is a decent chance that it would be the last live action c3p0 with the same actor, (old) it would be sad to leave have him gone not to mention it would feel very cold to have him not have a backup, it's not difficult to get a hard drive

@VestedUTuber Месяц назад

"1. How good the lightsaber fights are" Easiest way to cause massive arguments here. Surprisingly lightsaber fight scenes can be an EXTREMELY divisive topic, because different people use different metrics. Someone who likes tense scenes with heavy emotional impact is going to prefer the OT, someone who prefers rapid-fire choreography meant to show the Jedi at their peak would prefer the prequels, and some neckbeard who thinks they want realistic swordfights but actually has no fucking clue about swordfighting and thus thinks it's just two people bashing at each other with sharpened baseball bats because "lOl TeChNiQuE iS jUsT fOr ShOw" is going to prefer the sequels. And NO ONE is going to be willing to back down once these preferences clash, because (with the exception of the neckbeard) they actually have valid reasons for their preferences. I personally like Episode 3 in regards to its lightsaber duels, particularly Anakin vs Obi-Wan. Yes, despite the "Jedi Rave" clip, and that's actually the only blemish on an otherwise spectacular swordfight sequence. Even with all its spins, every move in that fight has a purpose... except for the "Jedi Rave", of course. It can be difficult to pick out what that purpose is without doing a frame-by-frame analysis, but it's there.

He is now the owner of the Darksaber -Later in that very same episode, Maul encounters and is handily defeated by Palpatine, making Palpatine the rightful owner. -Palpatine is killed by Vader on the Death Star, making Vader briefly the rightful owner before he passes away -It can be argued that the Darksaber should then be passed to his heir, but Luke and Leia eventually both die, leaving one more descendant -C3PO has a rightful claim to the Darksaber and the Throne of Mandalore. -You can also say that Palpatine wouldn't be able to claim it, because he didn't actually kill Maul, but in that case it then goes to Obi Wan when he kills Maul in their final duel on Tatooine, and then still ends up going to Vader when he kills Obi Wan on the Death Star -"Ummm, achktually, it doesn't follow elder wand rules that's not how it works" shut the hell up, I'm having fun.

@Majima_Nowhere Месяц назад

Depends on what your head canon is on the balance between programming and actual sentience in droids in Star Wars. Like, 3po is programmed to essentially be a butler that serves food and translates alien languages. Is he programmed to also see his masters as friends regardless of how they treat him, or is that his own emergent personality? Maybe a lore book goes into exactly how sapient droids are, but the movies certainly don't.

So glad to hear someone appreciating the storyteller 3P0 scene in VI as well. It gives all of the great feelings that a well-executed recap episode does in a tv show. - the audience is reminded of big moments and gets to reflect on them and the author gets a rare chance to tell the audience outright “this is important” without it coming across as too obvious - the audience gets to see the in-universe reactions to those moments from people who weren’t there, allowing for a better sense of scope and scale of the plot’s events - the main characters get more time to react to those moments again, and we get a better idea of how it made them feel and if they have undergone any changes since then

There's a comic that explains how c-3po gets the red arm. It's actually the only bit of media that takes place in the first order era of star wars that I like. Spoilers in case anyone want to read it but It follows a group of droids stranded on a hostile planet after a recent skirmish between the first order and resistance. There are droids from both sides but they decide its best to team up to make it of the planet. The planet is dangerous though and one by one the droids get picked off until only two remain. C-3po and first order droid 0-mr1, but not without injury as 3po is already missing his arm at this point. It starts to pour corrosive rain so they find shelter, where they have a deep conversation about the nature of droid existence, whether or not they have free will, and if a droid gets their memory gets wiped could they even be considered the same individual. Realizing one of them needs to risk the corrosive rain to get a nearby signal tower activated, omri heads out. His silver paint starts melting away revealing the red primer underneath, which he doesn't remember, and ponders about when it was applied. He gets the signal up to the resistance in order to save 3po. He's damaged beyond function by the rain, but 3po is able to salvage his arm to honor his now fallen, yet new found friend.

@harrya9458 9 месяцев назад

Personally, I think that even despite being purely appearances to make them feel more Star Wars-like, having the droids persist in all 9 movies was a good decision. It’s pretty sweet being able to see that no matter how much times changed, there were some things, just two things, the droids, that remained through it all. They were the witnesses to the space operas of multiple generations and really represented Star Wars

@harrya9458 9 месяцев назад

I always saw Threepio and R2 as the narrators to the whole story. The two regaling the Ewoks with Luke's fight with Vader and Han's tribulations is a foreshadowing of how the story would be presented to the galaxy in years to come and eventually adapted into the film we're watching.

@thehalfnegativeoptimist4578 8 месяцев назад

In terms of Luke having C3PO as part of the plan to save Han, I could definitely see Luke adding the golden lad as a way to better convince Jaba to take R2-D2 (sort of a foot-in-the-door tactic). I can imagine that a protocol droid that knows and can translate almost any language would be way more useful to a crime lord than a seemingly random protocol droid that he could get from the Jawas at any point.

Since you brought it up, technically C-3PO being Anakin's first creation means he owns the Darksaber (Maul -> Palps -> Anakin -> C-3PO as the eldest child), and also the rightful owner of Youngslayer 3000 (Anakin -> Obi-Wan -> (gift) Luke -> Vader -> C-3PO as the eldest child). You can take different branches for these and they'll always end up back at C-3PO being the rightful owner too.

Threepio's arm has changed back from red to gold at the end of Force Awakens, if I remember correctly. He's in a crowd scene at the end with two gold arms. Someone switched out the arms during the big battle, which is always the best time to do cosmetic droid maintenance.

I personally believe that George Lucas wrote R2 and 3PO as the narrators of his saga…if you watch the making of Ep. IV he talks about old samurai/Japanese movies where the audience would watch the story unfold through a couple of peasants. That was the inspiration behind these two characters-which adds lore and realism to the universe as this essentially makes one consider droids as second-class citizens, property of their “makers”. I, however, think that this worldbuilding idea is why R2 & 3PO are so beloved. They start out as mechanized servants (R2 was one of several droids on Queen Amidala’s royal cruiser; then later retained as her personal astromech when she became Senator-conversely 3PO was built by Anakin to assist his mother [themselves also slaves🤔]), and ultimately they become trusted and true family to their owners. I always think of them that way-members of a disregarded-often-mistreated sect of this massive society, who prove themselves invaluable, even outright the “secret weapon” that allows the outgunned rebel heroes to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Palpatine clearly has no regard for droids (See Ep. III) and that overconfident underestimating of what he views as lesser beings provides the keys to dismantling the seemingly all-powerful regime of tyranny he worked for years to erect! I also LOOOVEE 3PO in AOTC…he cracks me up every time!
