I am one of those rare people who only watched the Star Wars movies as an adult, but never as a kid. And I’m proud to say I’ve become an instant fan – owning both sets of trilogies on blu-ray :)
My favorite character is R2-D2. Is there anything this beeping trash can on wheels can’t do?
He’s a projector, a Swiss Army Knife and tolerator of Threepio, all rolled into one. I don’t even mind that he’s gotta too CG in the prequels, when R2 dropped oil slick on some battle droids and ignited them with his personal jet boosters – he’s a rockstar and can do no wrong. Whether he’s playing X-Wing wingman to Luke, or Murtaugh to C-3P0′s Riggs, R2-D2 is never not cool and reliable. He helped the Rebels topple the Empire, and then stuck around to help the new Republic grow and prosper. Any droid that can survive getting spit out by some Dagobah sea whale thing is worthy of winning my heart!
In an effort to celebrate May 4th – Star Wars Day – I’m dedicating this post to the awesome fun geeky fashions out there that I’d totally rock for realz (if I could find them)… paying homage to this fab sci-fi cultural phenomenon that is STAR WARS.
