I dont know about you guys, but I really was disappointed at the lack of C3PO and R2 interacting in Episode I. They are my favorite SW characters. They have the best chemistry in movie history. Anyways, I was wondering if we'll see more of them as 'friends' in EPII? I sure do hope so!
My personal opinion is that we shouldn't write off their PT involvement just yet. Something tells me that the importance of these two droids has been greatly underestimated....
That's possible. But their part in Ep1 was totally useless.
And some of the lines 3PO has (or may have) are duplictaes of the OT as well. I did see that line "Sometimes I just don't understand human behaviour" pass by again. That made me worry. And there's a rumour of 3PO firing a blaster in Ep2. Is this exciting or worrisome? I dunno.
the reason he repeats his lines are beause he has probably been programmed with certain repsonses. i.e. "I am c3po human cyborg relations" or whatever it he says.

Well, I'm with R.C. on this one. I think 3po and r2 are going to turn out to be critical, not only to the PT but the OT in ways we don't really know yet as well... as I've said on a number of (very long) occassions.
I don't like to be reminded of the latter, thank you? And why was that so important, anyway?
And if R2 hadn't saved the ship, some other droid would have. It was not as if he managed to dodge the laser beam best. I didn't see him dodge anything.
Could you picture C3PO on top of the Naboo Cruiser trying to bypass the main power converter? Ohh, that would of gotten the biggest laugh. Well let's just be thankful that he wasn't up there, you know what they say, women and machinery just dont mix .........(I'm in trouble now!...Oh well, it was worth it)
.......I disagree. Wasn't it R2 that delivered the vital message to Obi in ANH. If it wasn't for him, we would have no Luke Skywalker, no destruction of the Death Star, no rebel victory. R2 is a hero in my book
Aside from the fact that everytime 3PO said "Thank the Maker" he was thanking Vader. I don't know if it will be turned into anything crucial but it is a nice joke non the less.
I wonder if Chewie found a "Made in Tatooine" stick inside when he was fixing him?

GL has already said that TPM was just a film to break the ice, introduce the "new" fans to Star Wars and to give a background to some key characters.
With that in mind, I am quite glad R2 and 3 PO were in TPM. Didn't anyone else wonder how R2 D2 got so spunky compared to other R2 units?
The reason behind him bypassing the main power converter was to show that this droid is special, he doesn't think like other droids.
C3 PO. I don't know, he is very argumentative and pompous. Other protocol droids don't seem to have this feature. Maybe we will see a bit more of why he is the way he is in AOTC.
3 PO firing a blaster? That is really worrying. He is supposed to be a coward.
