Tommy, I was
growling at that
during 3. But did Han even
know about Yoda?
If I ever go back and watch 4-6, I'm going to be coming up with a list of things we're being asked to
, in a rather farcical way, believe, with people not noticing, or commenting on, cross-connections. Which, I suppose, is easier with Chewie and R2, as we don't actually know everything they're saying.
Do we seriously have to still white font this?
Obi-Wan knew R2D2, fairly well. Well enough for R2 to take orders from him. And yet, in E4, he says, "I don't remember owning any droid . . . ." C'mon, folks.
No whitefonting the original trilogy, I say.
Do we seriously have to still white font this?
If you're not in the Movie thread? Yeah. And even in the Movie thread, I think the white-font rule is two weeks.
Edit: The newest movie, I mean.
But it's only been 28 years. Someone somewhere might not have seen it.
I said it before I knew the nature of Chewbacca's role in Ep. III, and I can say it for certain now that I've seen it: 1. Aboslutely unnecessary, as it does nothing for the story and 2. detracts from the legitimacy of the story by pandering to the fans, which is also very, very unnecessary. Makes it look like Lucas didn't have enough faith in his own story and had to stick Chewie in to make everyone happy.
Well, technically he didn't own the droid....
OK, that's a reach.
In TESB I now expect Vader to say, "Hey, threepio, how's it goin'?"
Someone somewhere might not have seen it.
My minion has never seen any of the Star Wars movies. I think she's a clone.
Well on that point of continuity, Yoda
never left Degobah (or however its spelt) so I can give George a pass on him knowing Chewie. It's still pandering, but it doesn't screw things up as much as C3PO.
The only thing I can say on the latter is that C3PO was a common droid type built by Annakin from spare parts and a kit, and later got upgraded when he went off with the others.
