R2d2 - Tumblr Posts
{2.28.2016} Got this amazing necklace as a birthday gift from my awesome momma. It comes with matching earrings, too! :D Now off to a trip to Austin! ^o^ #r2d2 #starwars #madrosepost
Inktober #25.
I wanted to draw R2D2.
So I’ve noticed something in Star Wars. The droids are almost seen as pets to the people that buy/build them, so with that idea in mind, I have a few ideas for a modern AU:
- C3P0 is a service animal for Anakin Skywalker and helps with a good few things in his life. He is a senior dog who has a prothetic leg that he got when he was just a puppy. It is unknown how he got it, but has had it as long as Anakin can remember.
- R2D2 is an emotional support dog for Anakin due to PTSD from being in human trafficking and is never too far away from Anakin as he takes him in the car with him and he has a habit of sneaking Artoo in places he shouldn’t be.
- BB-8 is a puppy Poe adopted after a friend’s dog gave birth. He buys him a pilot’s uniform that looks like a replica of the one Poe himself wears and BB never wants to take it off, yipping loudly when he has to for cleaning.
- Chopper is a cat. The only person this cat likes is the woman who found him, Hera. As more people started to get in the way of just the two of them, he started to avoid them all and tended to attack her husband and adopted children.

These are just my personal ideas and spawned from me and a friend talking about how the droids we love are treated in the SWs universe.
If you have any more ideas I’d love to hear them ☺️
What do Din and Artoo think about each other?

Anyways I saw the new movie and I do indeed have a great many feelings...
But for now, have these cute vintage Star Wars Christmas Cards. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone!
STAR WARS Christmas cards from 1977.
This little droid is a Christmas present for my friend Rhonda, AKA Rhonda2D2. Ever since Star Wars: Uncut, Artoo has made me think of her, so I hope she gets a kick out of it.
It's funny how the different colors mold differently. The white clay was much softer and more pliable--to the point where it was impossible to get my fingerprints out of it--than, say, the black, which crumbled in my hands no matter how much I kneaded it first.
This is the first sculpture I've baked since the puppet heads from the film shoot, so I was a little worried it would crack, but it came out beautifully. Working in color is much more time consuming, but the finished product looks so much nicer, wouldn't you say?

happy pride to disney’s first openly queer couple 😌🌈 (twitter) [ID: Digital art of C3P0 and R2D2 from Star Wars. R2 is parked between Threepio’s legs from where they’re sprawled out on the ground. They sit in front of a gay flag in a circular shape. /END ID]
Leia looks much weirder than I remember her to be in the films but my little tribute towards the princess and the droid who shall always be remembered. May the force be with them both.
This felt right for them.
It’s star wars day so I drew a thing

15. Ewan McGregor Movie Review: Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999)
Hey y'all, I'm back! I took a break that lasted longer than expected and it's finally time for me get back to it. This is Ewan's first movie of 1999.
Genre: Family/Sci-fi
Rating: PG
Director: George Lucas
Starring: Liam Neeson, Ewan McGregor, Ahmed Best, Natalie Portman, Jake Lloyd
Movie Synopsis: "The Phantom Menace" is about two Jedi, Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, who are sent on a simple diplomatic mission to help a planet in crisis. What they discover is a much larger conspiracy and that their enemy, The Sith, have finally resurfaced after 1,000 years. Aid for the Jedi comes from an unlikely ally, Anakin Skywalker, who is an enslaved child and believed by Qui-Gon to be the Chosen One who will bring balance to the Force.
Ewan Review: Ewan McGregor plays the character Obi-Wan Kenobi who is an Apprentice aka Padawan to his Master, Qui-Gon Jinn. Obi-Wan is near the end of his Apprenticeship and is a very calm, focused, and prepared Jedi learner. While his Master believes little Anakin is the Chosen One and will do anything, even go against their Council's orders, to train the boy, Obi-Wan is not convinced. During their mission, Obi-Wan must use all of his training to confront the Sith and help bring peace to the planet. Ewan speaks in what sounds like a British accent for this role. He doesn't have any love interests, kissing, or nude scenes. His role isn't very prominent so he doesn't do much. He goes swimming with his clothes on if that is important to you and he has a fight scene at the end of the movie which is spectacular. His acting is fine for the little he's given to do.
Screentime Percentage: Ewan is on screen for a grand total of 23/136 minutes making his SP 17%.
To Ewan or not to Ewan: Is the movie worth watching for Ewan content alone? Sigh...no. Wait! Before you crucify me, just please take off your nostalgia glasses for a second! This movie and version of Obi-Wan is as dear to my heart as it is to many fans. However, my absolute love for this character doesn't change the fact that the man is barely in the movie. When he is, it's very brief scenes where he tends to be standing quietly in the background. He also has minimal lines. Even Ewan himself has joked about how he was basically hired to just stand behind Liam Neeson. The bulk of his screentime happens in the last TEN minutes of the movie. Ewan being in this film is a plus, not the reason you should watch. So, I'm obliged to say that this isn't the Ewan content you're looking for (pun intended). Now, is the movie worth watching in general? Absolutely! It's such a fun time, the world building is incredible and don't get me started on the film score! Plus, the lightsaber duel at the end is one of the best fight sequences in the entire Star Wars series.
Where to Watch: You can watch The Phantom Menace if you are subscribed to Disney+. The movie is available for rent on Amazon Prime Video, Google Play Movies & TV, or Fandango at Home. You can also pirate it on soap2day.
