Badgerboy Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Frankly, all protocol droids should be melted down and used to make paperweights. Who in their right mind would program a camp droid?! It beggars belief! They should have left Threepio with the bloody Jawas. I guarantee he'd turn out to become a R5 unit's *****. And why did they take the mincing tinman to Endor? HE'S BRIGHT GOLD! I don't know why the others bothered getting cammo'ed up when they take along the shining beacon of fruitiness. And then there are those bloody Ewoks....arghhh! Thankfully their planet would have been wiped out by the destruction of the Deathstar. 1km sized chunks of metal slamming into the planet so hard as to exterminate all life... JUSTICE! Stop the madness! Kill all protocol droids on sight! If not for me then for your childrens sake! BTW The Ewok that got blown apart by the AT-ST and then is found to be dead by his friend..... I laughed so hard I nearly passed out. Anyone agree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheArch Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 do you have any IDEA what droids are going for nowadays?!?! and you just chop one up for fun!!

Emon Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Guys, there isn't just ONE gold protocol droid with the name C-3PO. There are many gold protocol droids with different names, they are just the same model. Same goes for R2 and R5 units, or R6s, etc. The "3PO" and "R2" units are comic relief, they're supposed to be imitations of the real C-3P0 and R2-D2.

ElderJediLord Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Not to mention theres, C1PO, C2PO, C3PO, C4PO, and C5PO if I remember correction, R units are R1D9, R2D2, R3, R4, and R5 I've seen R1 mentioned extremly rarely, same with r3, and r4 versions, R5 is mentioned pretty much. I've heard of the C1, C2, C3, and C4, C5PO, I belive I've read somewhere..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emon Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 I'm sure there's more of each model than that. Probably after C9PO comes C10P0 I'd imagine, or maybe the letters would change, to like C1P1, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternity Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Nah, it was them, it was quite obvious, really. Start doubting whether that was our old friends and then you start thinking about stuff like did we ever land on the moon and whether anything actually is real, and then you turn in to one of the deep-thought groupies who smoke crack laced with PSP. ..... Sorry, what? I slashed 'em up good. If it moves, kill it. Muhahaha, before I sliced and diced 'em I spawned Luke so he could watch. Wish I coulda spawned Darth Vacuum Cleaner, I could see the wuss staring at his droid in his stupid super-man cape and freaking coal scuttle thing covering his entire face breathing noisily while I force gripped the sorry piece of Comic Relief For the Kiddies in The Audience. Muahahhaha. Yes, I get looks in school every day, usually when I'm pretending to be Satan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PsiSilverthorn Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 OF COURSE IT WAS R2 AND 3PO!!! Do any other 3po and r2 units hang around each other and bicker like they do in this scene???!!! And the "Thank the maker" line is PURE Threepio...regardless of the illogic of them being on Bespin it is obviously them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Abbadon Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 While I won't be getting into the disscussion of if it was or wasn't them, I can tell you that the phrase "Thank the maker" is a generic droid expression equivalent to our saying "Thank god". It does not belong to just C3PO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAlbaniac Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 isn't it possible that Anakin created the first protocol droid of this particular model, and it was later used as a model for other droids? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocketman Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 out to get revenge on that ass that shot 3P0 to bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me thinks you needs to watch the beginning of Ep1 again, and take special notice to who (or is that "what"?) greets the two jedi when they board the Trade Fed's ship.

Digital_Ronin Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 easter egg ... well, just makes me think. They had a 'max' from 'sam and Max' in pretty much every lucasarts game. Was something of an obligation I guess... There wouldn't happen to be one somewhere in JO? *errrh* *grins* "Rabbit season's open!" *walks off, starts up JO* Digital_Ronin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D66 Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 BTW The Ewok that got blown apart by the AT-ST and then is found to be dead by his friend..... I laughed so hard I nearly passed out. Anyone agree? In Rebelion I played empire and built a Deathstar JUST to destroy Endor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broode Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Actually, they stated the there would be no max easter egg in SP... which is a shame. I mean, it's become a tradition now, what reason could LucasArts have for leaving it out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Koounaar Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Unlikely that Max will be appearing in Jedi Outcast as Lucasarts don't have the license to Sam and Max anymore. Although acitvision maybe publishing the next game (see http://www.infinite-machine.com/) Sorry. As for the Endor thing, a friend of mine found a hilarious scientific essay on the horrors of what the destruction of the second death star would have caused http://www.theforce.net/swtc/holocaust.html#disaster Hilarious - Koounaar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Koounaar Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 In reply to the origin of c-3PO i took this from http://www.theforce.net There is one definite point of awkwardness in the continuity surrounding C-3PO. Books and the C-3PO CCG game card published before The Phantom Menace stated that he was manufactured 112 years before A New Hope. Since The Phantom Menace is much more recent than that, these references are disproven unless the droid is less than entirely Anakin Skywalker's creation. Perhaps the chassis and whatever part of the droid contains his sapience were found in a dismembered state, and Anakin carried out a restoration process using other droid parts. The Episode I: Visual Dictionary states that the structural framework was eighty years old during The Phantom Menace. Since the droid is recognised as a distinct model in the later movies, Anakin must have been performing an act of restoration, not complete innovation or invention.

Reflection Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 Uh? I could've sworn C3P0 said R2D2's name when you first walked up to them??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
