    • Are droids in Star wars sentient? This is a big question. But there are also big amounts of evidence supporting both sides of the argument. Droids, as we know, were programmed by living beings to resemble the organism's traits so that it could communicate and work for the organism. Over time, I believe, the droids have learned more. This is probably both by them learning (or adding to their databanks) new things or them being programmed into them. And we can see that the longer a droid is kept with the same memory, the more personality it develops. As seen in the Star wars continuity, first order and empire droids have less personality. Strange, right? Well this isn't exactly programming. What these organizations are doing is wiping the droids' memories periodically so that they do not develop personality. Back to basic human feelings. Droids have been known to care for others. Like R2-D2 will save someone they know to be in danger even if it is not requested of them. Playing devils advocate, however, is that droids will sometimes have a superseding order that makes them do something first or in place of before another personal task. Mostly, droids don't really get bored. We don't know for sure, but my guess is that droids get bored only because they want to be more like humans. Another thing. Droids feeling pain? This can't be true. But somehow it is. In an episode of the Clone Wars, C-3PO and R2-D2 are on a mission for getting supplies when C-3PO gets captured and interrogated. C-3PO actually winces when he gets shocked. He also fears the pain, and anticipates a pain reaction from it. Droids can also 'hear,' but just a different way. Also, Droids can smell? In the new show, Maul: Shadow Lord, Two boots comments on the smell of an area. That's new information. Droids are also super protective of the idea that they are sentients. Droids like L3-37 have even rebels for this vision. I am curious to hear people's thoughts on this, because it is a puzzling subject.

    • Was the reason Yoda was crazy on Dagobah in the OT because he was on spice? This may seem like a joke, but it is sort of canonical. In Star Wars Encyclopedia (2025), under the 'Yoda's Hut' section, it states that in one corner of his hut is his spice collection. Does this NOT make sense? He gets blown away by a flashlight, for goodness sakes. If you want more proof, remember that only about 20 years passed between when he was a Jedi grand master and a total lunatic living in a mud hut. Share your opinion. I'm curious. Maybe Yoda said yes to deathsticks when Obi-wan didn't. I guess we'll never know.
