    So there's an awesome imperial March theme remix in Ralph Breaks the Internet, R2-D2, some First Order troopers chasing after Venelope, all really zippy and fun. But the best part is Threepio is in Ralph Breaks the Internet as he works as the assistant (it seems) to the Disney Princesses (No Leia as a Disney Princess, though, however the other Princesses to seem a bit wary of Princesses from "The other studio" as they talk about the Princess from Brave). Voiced by Anthony Daniels, his design is a little odd, I thought they'd go with just the Rebels or Clone Wars design but it works for the movie.

    But this is the part that blew me mind, also there's one gag that is probably a %1 Star Wars gag where Threepio opens the door, tells the Princesses they're on in five, and the closes the door. But as he closes the door it's in small quarter motions a bit stuttering halfway each time. Why? Because it's a solid door on a swing handle and Threepio couldn't solidly close a door on a swing handle in a single push because his arms are jointed to his elbows! So, if Threepio was closing a door, it would be in that herky-jerky kind of way. It's about a 2 second long gag and you have to think about it but it totally works!

    Oh and the Trooper is FN-3181 who is voiced by Rogue One composer Michael Giacchino! (Looks like he got a promotion too since he has the orange thingie on his shoulder now)
