THE SKURJ OF FAKE NEWS. (kingfish), Monday, 23 January 2017 23:52 (nine years ago)

Bothers me that all droids have 4-character names. And R2 units, for example, are all R2-??, which means there can be at most 36 x 36 R2 units in the whole universe, and only 36 x36x36x36=1.7 million robots in the whole universe.

I hear from this arsehole again, he's going in the river (James Morrison), Tuesday, 24 January 2017 10:17 (nine years ago)

well fuck, that's unravelled the entire tightly-woven fabric of the star wars universe for me

the greg evigan school of improvised explosive devices (bizarro gazzara), Tuesday, 24 January 2017 10:23 (nine years ago)

but wait you're assuming that all droids have unique names - maybe 'r2d2' is as common as 'steve' but we don't know because we've only seen one onscreen

phew, faith in star wars restored

the greg evigan school of improvised explosive devices (bizarro gazzara), Tuesday, 24 January 2017 10:26 (nine years ago)

The droids introduced in the Darth Vader comic are 0-0-0 and BT-1, which admittedly don't help much.

Andrew Farrell, Tuesday, 24 January 2017 10:27 (nine years ago)

*doesn't, though admittedly they don't help much either.

Andrew Farrell, Tuesday, 24 January 2017 10:27 (nine years ago)

According to tvtropes.org, the following heroic droids have been featured in Episode VII and its spinoff media (comics and novels) so far:

C3-PO
R2-D2
BB-8
PZ-4CO
R2-KT
GA-97
PZ-99
CO-34
2-MED-2
VL-44
R0-4L0
R2-HA
O-R10N
R4
N1-ZX

Surpised that Y0-L0 and B0-0B5 haven't yet shown up.

Tuomas, Tuesday, 24 January 2017 10:58 (nine years ago)

Guess moisture farmers can't afford personalised droids

important trench location info

trenchant building meter data

stein beck ii: the wrath of grapes (Doctor Casino), Wednesday, 25 January 2017 15:26 (nine years ago)

the death star computer animation being completely wrong about the superlaser location is classic star wars and i'm glad george didn't fix it

mh 😏, Wednesday, 25 January 2017 16:00 (nine years ago)

And R2 units, for example, are all R2-??,

Yeah, but the R2 designation is only a subclass of the larger astromech droid class. Like in the graphic below, with only covers the subclasses beginning with R. "Chopper" on Star Wars: Rebels is clearly an astromech, but his designation is C1-10P.

Lauren Schumer Donor (Phil D.), Wednesday, 25 January 2017 17:01 (nine years ago)

I kind of assumed that R* units were from one vendor and the C* units are from a different one. Different vendors using different nomenclatures for product lines.

mh 😏, Wednesday, 25 January 2017 17:13 (nine years ago)

hey guys I'm worried about whether or not any more death stars are gonna get blown up

ΞŸα½–Ο„ΞΉΟ‚, Wednesday, 25 January 2017 17:26 (nine years ago)

My understanding is that the next standalone movie following the Han Solo one is about the discovery that R2-D2's head has, all along, been one half of a new Death Star terrorizing the micro-universe inhabited by midichlorians.

stein beck ii: the wrath of grapes (Doctor Casino), Wednesday, 25 January 2017 17:47 (nine years ago)

I wonder if someday they are going to make a star wars movie with two death stars? would be crazy

silverfish, Wednesday, 25 January 2017 17:53 (nine years ago)

A new Death Star but, get this, inflatable.

nashwan, Wednesday, 25 January 2017 17:59 (nine years ago)

How about two Death Stars connected side by side, attached to a long, cylindrical ram?

(The caption: β€œfine dining.”) (DJP), Wednesday, 25 January 2017 18:35 (nine years ago)

I have a pen
I have a death star
UH
Death star pen!

how's life, Wednesday, 25 January 2017 18:37 (nine years ago)

In the Italian version, R2-D2 was C1-P8. Chopper from Rebels is Italian. Duh.

L-Ron was already in Justice League International.

Nah, go four Death Stars and go this route instead:

Now that I think about it I would pay money to see a Star Wars film begin with the Lucasfilm logo and then:

"In the not too distant future..."

Ned Raggett, Wednesday, 25 January 2017 19:30 (nine years ago)

next movie should just be 2 1/2 hours of death stars blowing up other death stars, non-stop exploding death stars w John Williams score

ΞŸα½–Ο„ΞΉΟ‚, Wednesday, 25 January 2017 19:35 (nine years ago)

Death Stars stealing each other's schematics. "Many Death Stars exploded to bring us this information."

next movie begins with luke poised to accept his lightsaber from rey - as his fingers make contact the camera zooms way out, off the surface of the planet, zooming faster out across the whole star wars universe until it exits a familiar-looking grey metal aperture, pulling back even further until it become clear that everything that happened in the previous seven star wars movies all happened inside one mammoth death star

then the death star explodes and a feature-length episode of supernanny begins

there it is

So I like this movie more and more in retrospect and really looking forward to watching it again at home.

One criticism though is of the 'Rogue One' shuttle itself. Obviously Jyn is the "rogue one" but the design for the namesake shuttle is deeply boring when compared to the shuttle Tyderium or the U-Wing which is I guess the "signature" ship of the film.

Spencer Chow, Thursday, 26 January 2017 00:40 (nine years ago)

it's the everyshuttle

mh 😏, Thursday, 26 January 2017 00:41 (nine years ago)

I think the main problem with all the recent shuttles is they don't look like they have cockpits. I know they do, but the glass on them is very small and it almost looks like they're drones.

Spencer Chow, Thursday, 26 January 2017 01:00 (nine years ago)

Also, the wing sweeps are all over the place. Can't tell if it's coming or going.

Spencer Chow, Thursday, 26 January 2017 01:01 (nine years ago)

Chris Miller tweets from the set of the Solo, uh, solo movie. Look at the working title.
