Star Wars PSA

The entire film industry is apparently busy prepping their fabulous New Year’s plans rather than producing actual news stories to report on, so here’s a really old STAR WARS anti-smoking commercial I’ve never seen before.

It features R2-D2 and C-3PO illustrating the dangers of smoking. Not sure if a robot holding a cigarette with a claw is hazardous to said robot’s health, but Threepio makes the point that they should be setting a good example for humans. Though if that’s the case, the lesson I learned from R2 about sticking my fingers into random wall sockets as a child is pretty contrary to that philosophy.
