Again…or possibly this is the third time, if you read that spoiler description of the status of Luke at the start of this film, it makes sense. You all are taking it too literally.
Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakened, Looked At The Time, Then Rolled Over And Got Ten More Minutes Of SleepWell, I hope they'll change the title in French: "Le réveil de la Force":behave...réveil can also be used for...wait for it: an alarm clock! Mmmhh, not good indeed...
STAR WARS
EPISODE VII
THE FORCENING
"This time it's personal"
...
Do we know if the R2 Builders Club are responsible for the weathering also? or just building him. I'm not knocking their work by ANY means, and I'm so excited and proud for them that they were able to make the ep. vii R2, but the weathering job does look a little too airbrushed to me. Instead of having the appearance of dirt and grease building up in the natural grooves, it looks a little too even and intentional with the brown misting.
Don't get me wrong, I think it still looks fantastic and I'd gladly take this ANY DAY over a CGI flying R2 with go go gadget oil slick and rocket boosters.
I knocked a picture up the other night, had an idea in my head of Luke pulling a star destroyer down from orbit.

"No more Mr. Nice Force!"
Chew on this one lol
"As this episode is the first Star Wars film to be distributed by Walt Disney Pictures, Princess Leia Organa will officially be a Disney Princess after its release"
There was a segment on tonights episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver where JJ Abrams is directing R2-D2 on a small Empire-ish looking set - it was a gag obviously, and hard to tell if R2 and the set were legit - anyone else see it?
Yes it is legit... the same screen used R2 as seen at the closing wrap party. (ask me how I know! )
Episode 7 R2D2 in Action on HBO’s Last Week Tonight with John Oliver starting at 3:30 and 4:03
