EPISODE VII: THE LANGUAGE OF TRUST AND FRIENDSHIP

 


With our vulnerable heroine Rey unsure of her destiny and now hiding in one of the forests of Takodana, it's up to the ever-loyal BB-8 to provide some support and friendship to her in a dark time. Rey returns the favour to once more fix the droid's always bending antenna wire in this sweet moment from The Force Awakens.

The trusting and often charming relationships between Humans and Droids in the Star Wars films is an important part of the saga's underlying popularity with audiences of all ages. Not all humans onscreen necessarily understand the Astromech language though, so how about a handy and fun new guide from Chronicle on how to successfully navigate such a unique form of communication: How to Speak Astromech with BB-8, joyously illustrated by popular UK artist and lifelong saga fan JAKe, alongside enlightening text by I.M. Rollin.
