Ok when R2D2 has saved everyones life in the movie. This is directed at when he saves that nabbo starfighter thingy that everyone is on. If he wouldn't of: Qui Gon woul of died(effect: no darth vader), obi wan (on of the greatest jedi, but hey), queen amidala(sp?), some others too

 

 

well see there would be no darth vader so the empire may not have conqured the jedi, but it depends on how big of a role he plays in ep3

 

So it comes so the question: Is R2D2 a blessing or a curse, the empire my not have risen if it were not for this droid.

 

 

 

Yeah but he wouldn't have met C-3PO either and would not have been as funny in the later films without him. Considering he carried the Death Star Plans that ultimately lead to it's destruction, I think that makes up for indirectly helping the Empire, don't you?

If R2 never exsisted I think...

 

1.) Padme, Obi wan, and Qui-Gon would be dead.

 

2.) Sidious wouldn't have to reveil himself. The only reason he sent Maul out was to kill Padme, with her dead he gets to remain unnoticed by the Jedi. That means he can wait untill the moments just right to strike and Maul gets to finish his training.

 

3.) Jar Jar binks would died on the ship too.

 

4.) Anakin lives the rest of his life building afeminate robots.

 

5.) He would've used the queens death a chance to sieze power (As someone aleady said).

 

6.) The Trade Federation would back out of Naboo, under Sidious' orders, and flame up the seperatists movement.

 

7.) The Seperatist would eventually clash with the Jedi (Like in eps 2) and wipe them out (Remember this is just what I think wouldve happend).

 

8.) As a response to the Seperatist's actions, and the elimination of the 'knights of the republic', Chancellor Palpatine would pull an army of clones out of his rear (Much like what he did in eps2. I mean he just passed the resoultion and 2 hours later they're fighting on genosious. What did he tell the senate, he ordered then rush delivery?) and crush the seperatists. Afterwards with an army of elite soldiers, damn-near obsolute power, and no-one to challenge him he'd rule the universe. Oh course that'll last for awhile then comes the rebelion, which then gets crushed by the undistroyed DeathStar.
