Welcome to the 30 day challenge of May, which sees a return to two of the most iconic things in pop culture, to say nothing of Science Fiction, namely Star Trek and Star Wars. Throughout this month some prompts will be general and apply to both franchises, while others will be Trek/Wars specific, as indicated.

Today we’re returning to the field of beloved characters, and talking about the very first people we meet in Star Wars, namely the duo of R2D2. What makes R2D2 and C3PO work -or not- to you? What are their best and worst scenes? Who do you prefer? Sound off below.

Bonus prompt: Do either work without the other?

Extra Bonus prompt: Whats their best non-movie appearances?

Bonus prompt Legends: Should they have been confined to the OT, or are you always happy to see them?
