R2D2 was a repair droid that had been in the family since luke was a child.  It's just one of the standard repair droids they use on the spaceships.  His was called R2D2, he was an R2 unit.

R2D2 was in Episode I. When Queen Amadala flees Naboo in the shiny chrome ship, that huge Drone ship fires on them. As they are getting hit, the droids get sent up a tube and go outside to make repairs. R2D2 is the only one that servives and fixes the ship enough so that they can get to safety, which happened to be Tatooine. After R2D2 comes back inside, Queen Amadala gives it recognition for its arduous work and tells Padme to have it cleaned and serviced.

Yeah R2D2's like family passed down ancient robot material.  I meant anikan when I said Luke in my original post.  He's been around since anikan was a child.

Well to be honest with you, I just have a great memory. When watching those movies, they had my full attention. I'm not a huge star wars fan at all, I really like movies and these are some pretty good flicks. I would have a equal knowledge of Kill Bill, Saving Private Ryan, Out Cold, American Beauty, etc.

You're partly right but on the wrong side of the family.  In the beginning of New Hope it is Leia, not Luke who is in possession of both R2D2 and C3P0.  The droids jettison themselves from Leia's ship to keep the Death Star plans away from the Empire and land on Tatooine where they are captured by those weird Jawa things and then sold to Luke and Uncle Owen.

As far as why Obi Wan says what he says, I'm not sure.  His act words are that he doesn't recall owning any droids which is true.  Anakin was definitely the owner of C3P0 and possibly R2 in the prequels, though the latter is never really made clear that I can remember.  It is possible that Obi Wan does not remember R2.  It is possible that he is lying.

R2D2 is God. Everything that happens in the Star Wars universe happened at his behest.

Notice he always has all the right tools for the job, no matter the situation...

considering the fact that he also said Vader killed Anakin Skywalker i always figured he said that to hide his past from Luke.

Obi Wan throws Luke into the shark pit anyway though so whatevs...



lets face it.. George Lucas isnt exactly a genius. :shrug:

r2d2 was originally a midget gangster located in the Bronx. He was probably the most lethal gangster through the Bronx and Yonkers. He was commonly know for rapings, murders, snorting way too much coke, and smoking fat blunts fromn dawn until dusk. Eventually r2d2's luck ran out and he was confronted by 5 crips, beaten, raped, and then shot.

r2d2 was a fighter. He clung on for dear life and was rushed to a hospital where cutting edge doctors decided there was only one way to save him. Turn him into a robot. Then next morning when r2d2 woke up he proceeded to scratch himself. As he saw a mechanical pointer arm move on his command he realized that he was no longer made of flesh. This sat deep within r2d2s robot heart as he knew he would no longer be able to make love to a woman or snort coke.

r2d2 was a fighter. He decided that from then on he would become a midget robot of virtue. He then devoted his life to Luke Skywalker.

Apparently R2 was just in the employ of Queen Amidala as a mech droid.

interestingly enough the first movie (A New Hope) was intended to be written from the view point of the droids.

Lucas was pressured out of the idea but we still mainly follow the droid through a lot of the beginning of the movie
