In a galaxy far, far away, the battle for the safety and continuity of the Galactic Republic against the Trade Federation had occupied Luke Skywalker, the son of the legendary Anakin Skywalker, who at the end turned to be the dreaded Darth Vader himself. During this epic battle that spanned the immortal six movie length episodes of the Star Wars saga and numerous television as well as animated series, one constant that made its presence felt besides Luke, was the chubby little Android, R2-D2, who is often associated as Luke Skywalker's sidekick.
Now after years of battling the Trade Federation, the Sith Lords and Darth Vader and finally claiming victory, our Android warrior it seems finally decided to settle down and have a family of his own, as during this year's annual Star Wars super-convention, the Star Wars Celebration V, R2-D2 finally entered into the holy tie of matrimony with StarWars.com editor Bonnie Burton. The gala celebration was presided by none other than, Darth Maul himself and the attendees at the altar included, Lord Vader and the funky looking Elvis Trooper.
According to Bonnie Burton.
"I've always had a secret crush on Artoo ever since I first saw him in A New Hope. Granted, I was just a kid then. What did I know about astromech love? But I kept a special place in my heart for him, fully knowing I may never meet him face to dome. It wasn't until many years later when I landed a job as Lucasfilm that I took my chance and made the first move. R2-D2 puts all you human boys to shame. He's got a built-in GPS (so says Uncle George) so he never gets lost. Plus you should see Artoo's dance moves! And yes, he's got more gadgets and charm than James Bond himself."
