He knows to start books with Star Destroyers - so there's that.

Sometimes - occasionally - the very best Star Wars tends to begin with a Star Destroyer.

Even after all the decades of adventures and close calls with destruction, Artoo always cleans up well. He's rarely been that clean, polished and shiny. Some of these droids were built to last.

It's remarkable (if you think about it) that a beeping tin can actually has personality.. let alone that much personality!

A rolling trash can with a blinking dome has more personality than Anakin Skywalker. Who'd have guessed?

By the time the Sequel Trilogy is completed Artoo and Threepio will be the only characters who appear in all nine Episodes of the Saga (unless spirit Anakin and/or Obi-Wan surface to guide Luke in each of the new films).

But seriously, who are the other two in that picture besides Abrams and R2?

The woman is Lucasfilm head Kathleen Kennedy, George's successor. I don't recognize the guy on the far right.

It's George Osbourne, a British Chancellor. The three are announcing the first stand-alone Star Wars film will be filmed in Britain

Clearly, it's the front part of the cockpit canopy. For a second I thought I might be the gun port, but that window doesn't have the lower sections blanked off.
Might not be so far from the truth. with all he's been through I wouldn't be surprised if by now there isn't an original part left in him. Like Trigger's broom from 'Only Fools and Horses'; "...maintained it for 20 years. This old brooms had 17 new heads and 14 new handles in its time."

Artoo is just a CPU. They probably put him in a new body every decade

I know I shouldn't laugh, but a 71 year old Harrison Ford getting hurt by the door of the Millennium Falcon is just too funny.

A significant chunk of Artoo was probably replaced when they had to repair him after the Battle of Yavin. Vader's TIE Fighter cannons had blasted a huge hole in him and rendered him a smoldering metal can, and the Rebel technicians at the base likely had to switch out old and even original components so that they could repair him in time for the medal ceremony.
