Smoking is not a good thing. I do it, and I'm not proud of it. But these PSAs are very interesting, especially this one. The whole idea of C-3PO and R2-D2 telling people not to do it is very funny, but very good too; we all love those two, and we don't want to do bad things like that. I love how Anthony Daniels plays 3PO here as well. Has he ever NOT played the guy? Awesome.
@calapanpo You had it right ot say "Smoking lead to the dark side." That is because not only does smoking cause various cancers and heart disease, it also promotes LITTERY!
Smoking = LITTERY
I never smoked and I NEVER will, because I am educated well enough on the subject to know of the various dangers of the cigarette. I am a free spirit who wears a bow tie that I promise to NEVER tie as a gesture of peace:) I love to pick up the junk that litter slobs flick, esp. cigarette BUTTS!
TheREAL Sisko i can tell your very cool because you mentioned stuff about behind the scenes star wars material and you called a CIG a SIG so can i hang out with you?
crazy thing about this is the guy who played c3p0 was a smoker, I remember an photo from behind the scenes showing someone on set putting a sig into this mouth (he was still in costume and need help)
Everyone knows General Grievous smokes Marlboros unfiltered. He coughes constantly !!! Darth Vader stopped but it was too late, he needed help breathing. Common knowledge...
That is if it is an all oxygen environment. If space stations/ships had an all oxygen environment then they would explode instantly at the slightest wire malfunction.
Tragically, seconds after filming for this commercial wrapped, Artoo's discarded cigarette ignited some old bantha rags and burned the place to a cinder. 15 Jawas were killed.
I think this video is really great...vintage, but still educaitonal in it's own way. Would you consider posting it on the American Lung Association's new website at thelungchallenge . com? This is a new video sharing site dedicated to lung health issues. Thanks - E Gray ALA Orlando, FL
WOW...this is a great piece of nostalgaia and as my Mother just passed away a week ago from cancer, I couldn't be happier for ANY anti-smoking campaign.
bostonTParty1775 hey retard aids kills stright people too you dumbass you are ignorent and you need to get your fucking facts stright before you go claiming shit
I'm sick of having to speak at funerals for people who drop dead and leave behind their children and wives and family because they smoked. I'm also sick of my taxes going to support people who get avoidable illness through smoking and STILL smoke. But hey, it's a free world, just a shame for the rest of us.
I think maybe this was intended for younger smokes who are easily influenced by things (smoking included). Star Wars would definitely be a more positive solution.
OMG! This is so great! I stumbled upon this by chance while scouring youtube for anti smoking commercials to use in my persuasive speech and it fits perfectly! I love STAR WARS!

George Lucas didn't stop there. Remember this line from Attack of the Clones?

Outlander: I don't wanna sell ya death sticks.
Obi-Wan: You want to go home and rethink your life.
