..but I can't help it really.

Whilst watching ESB tonight I noticed something for the first time, when Yoda and R2 are fighting over the flashlight, once Luke tells R2 to let him have it and R2 lets go, Yoda has a really good look at R2, it's almost a double take as if he recognises the little R2 unit. Has anyone else noticed this before?

ToMacco
Um. . . you wern't stoned, were you?

I'll take a close look next time I watch.

yerssot
you're right, you sound stupid wink

R2 gets a memory-wipe and there are lots of R2 units, looking like R2-D2

Corran
Yes, that's what I thought, hence the title of the thread.

yerssot
save you out of it wink

What does R2 having a memory wipe have to do with whether Yoda recognises him or not?

Dexx
hehe......exactly. Besides..yoda has a good memory..in all his 900 years

finti
I felt it was a gaze of being victorious in the struggle of the flashlight.

yerssot
yup, big struggle for him

master harmax
Nope ... didnt notice nuthin like that.

Dexx
i think i like that yoda better then the cgi one...

Julie
I have no opinion on the CG vs puppet issue....
but practically speaking....I'm not sure that when that scene was shot they had any clue that yoda would end up seeing R2 before.....BTW I'm not positive yoda really was introduced to R2 anyway

finti
guess there was no banquette

I remember this exact same topic coming up back when this was an eZBoard community. So you aren't sounding stupid. At first I refused to believe it but when I watched it more closely I saw this.

And R2 having a memory wipe has nothing to do with Yoda's ability or inability to recognize Artoo. Also, despite the fact that there are many R2 units in the galaxy, the fact that this unit was with Luke might have made Yoda look twice and ask himself how Luke got ahold of them. (Since they stayed in the hands of the Rebellion).

finti
Guess Yoda couldn care less how Luke got a hold odf a R2 unit.

yerssot
perhaps he even didn't know what a droid is

finti
oh he knew allright

Julie
Why do you think that? .....BTW Maul's face is lovely...

finti
why do I think he know what a droid is. He seen droids around before he went into hiding

yerssot
big grin

finti
what are you grinning at, and Mauls face is lovely??????

yerssot
I grine because it's fine?

finti
whatever

yerssot
that's better *pats finti on the head*

finti

yerssot
