My favorite Threepio moment: is when he is in the droid assembly factory and hes babbling on, And he loses his head, literally.

My favorite Artoo moment: is when their in cloud city and he smokes up the door way so the storm troopers can't see.

And my favorite Artoo and Threepio moment: is when Artoo pulls off threepio's head and returns it to his body, while a battle is going on around them.

My favourite R2 moment - well, several - in the beginning of ROTS when he totally pwns those battledroids and ESB when he tries to take back the lamp from Yoda.

Fav C-3PO moment - ESB, Asteroid field chase and Han'h hiding on the Star Destroyer hull. grin He's pure 3PO there. The possibility of successfully navigating an asteroid field are approximately 3720 : 1! tongue And they even have to shut him down, lol. AOTC when he steps into the factory on Geonosis and says Oh my goodness, shut me down! Machines making machines! How perverse!

Then there is the moment of pure awesome in ROTJ, when the Ewoks mistaken 3PO for a god. It's against my programming to impersonate a deity. grin

I've had the great fortune of meeting Anthony Daniels at the Celebration Europe last year. He also had a talk infront of the audience and when he came to the stage there was a great applause and cheerining of course, but said he'll make an entrance once more and asked us all to start bowing like Ewoks in ROTJ. tongue Which we did do. It was an amazing and a hilarious moment. nerd grin

Hi everyone, I'm back! grin

Kyp, I'm not exactly sure how to explain pwnage. It's like getting thoroughly dominated and destroyed.

Fave R2 moment: ESB, during periscoping adventures
Fave 3PO moment: ANH, "And don't let me catch you following me, begging for help, because you won't get it."

more later!

O is the 15th letter of the alphabet, P the 16th. So 'P' is higher and/or greater than 'O'. And therefore, to pwn someone is to defeat them even worse than owning them.

Well, that's what I've read. My mileage may vary.

That actually makes sense! grin
But on the other hand, in case A is the first letter and therefore the best, than O will have a higher rank in relation to letter P. wink
Many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our point of view. tongue
