Itâs funny to me how a literal torture machine gets upset by people not respecting Boba Fett.
Well it is loyal to it's master, whoever it happens to be. Additionally, disrespect for it's master is disrespect for all those that serve him.
You could say it is... torture to him.
@@davvader you go into the corner and think about what you have done
@@DocLeQuackit better be the really bad made corner
@@DocLeQuack is⊠is @davvader aloud out of the poorly made corner yet?
The fact that these things were made by the Verpine species explains a lot about 8D8's sadism. Even their weapons have an overkill/sadistic bent to them.
"Royal Jelly" is also a hivemind insect term.
Verpine that would be a good lore video..
Something about the way 8d8 says 'lord fett' is hilarious. Hope to see more of him.
They use "Royal Jelly" similarly to silver spoon. It was likely a humorous comment on how feudal systems are similar to hive hierarchies in their rigidiry.
I love this droid, but nobody is talking about how he is voiced by Matt Berry, a brilliant uk actor, he should get more credit
his voice is perfect. a great pick.
Fatheeeeeeeeeeer
Jackie Daytona
Thank you - I was about to have to look that up - I knew I recognised the voice from somewhere.
@@Mike_Cant_Golfjust your regular human bartender
My impression (and head canon) was that the Droid (GNK power droid) that got "tortured" into screaming was actually performing as a training aid, rather than a actual victim. Thus keeping the torturer "sharp" for when it got actual victims to interrogate and torture.
That's even worse. Poor guy/girl.
ââ@@twistedyogert how do you know that droid didn't identify as non binary? You bigot!
Someone should cancel this twistedyogert!! He's clearly a transdroidaphobe!
Man, "bug aliens" that make droids can't seem to catch a brake.
True
well no one really hates the colecoids who made the droideka right?
@@starlight0313 well... droidekas did serve the Separatist during the Clone Wars so...
lol all great points here
@@mdxque8393 no one gave particular hate to the bugs
i feel like out there in the galaxy at large; there's a medical droid who's fascinated by organic reactions to the point of sadistic curiosity, preforming medical procedures in grueling, slow, and painful ways that are more torturous than medical... but still strives to ensure the better health of the organic coming out of surgery than going in... even if that involves removing the skin and re-attaching it.
I shall call it MN-77, a product of overzealous supervisors, and aging software buildup
you need to get out more...
The âMengeleâ series droid. đ€ź
Meet the Medic
I swear I've read this exact comment before.
Galaxy far far away
There's a medical Droid that tells a random heavy clone trooper about this time when a medical Droid remove the skeleton from some poor guy and it says that that's how I lost my medical license and the heavy clone trooper goes wait what the actual fuck?
I agree with Ysonne Isard. Keep your enemies close and the Verpines closer.
I feel like the sarcasm for this droid is the best Iâve seen in Star Wars tho L3 is still up there!
I like that as a droid he is clearly trying to be more, heâs doing something very organic, he is aspiring to be and do more.
He's not trying, he's succeeding.
He is a smelting droid, that now advises a powerfull crime lord in political matters.
I can just imagine Clem Fandango giving instructions to Matt Berry when he was in the booth recording his lines for the droid.... lol
Yes I can hear you boba fett
And Ray Purchase voicing EV-9D9.
Video ideas:
âą A Coruscant Planet Bio to add to your Planets Lore Collection/Playlist.
âą A video on Darth Krayt's entire life story.
âą A few videos on different Lightsaber crystals, and types (I know Stupendous Wave did a bunch of videos on this topic, but I would like you to make some videos on that too).
âą A Darth Caedus/Jacen Solo biography video, or two.
âą A Planet Bio of The Moons of Yavin, and Endor.
âą And finally, A Ship Breakdown (or Updated versions of old ship breakdowns) of The Executor-class SSD, and/or The MC80b.
Thank you for your great content.
How about also some in-depth videos on The History of Hyperlanes in Star Wars, and Hyperspace travel in general?
Also, a series of planet bios of The Kuat, Fondor, Rendili, Rothana, and other shipyard planets would be nice. Btw, where did Sienar Fleet Systems operate from, cause I think Sienar is the name of a family, not a planet (but I could be wrong)?
My favorite part about the EV series of droids? Moving mouth actuators. Completely unnecessary yes, but it's just that kind of extra bit of craftsmanship I've come to expect from MerenData Inc.
"My name is Jackie Daytona, human bartender" oh I love Matthew Berry, great choice for the voice of the droid.
That RoTJ torture scene terrified me as a child thanks for the vid Metanerdz! More vids on ships/vehicles like the Gozanti class, Lancer class or maybe some rebellion/resistance era like the Raddus? Just an idea
yeah I want to work in more ships again soon
You could try Spacedock's channel. I know he's done a video about the Gozanti.
@@MetaNerdzLore Looking forward to it. Keep up the good work ive probably been subscribed for 4 years now so ibe seen the quality get better and better!
@@jonmcgee6987 its on my watch later. Thanks for the suggestion
The robo torture scared me as a kid too!
This is an interesting video! Its really cool how there is so much backstory even on such a minor character. Thats one of many really awesome things about Star Wars.
I would love to see a video comparing/contrasting The Tactical Geniuses of Darth Revan, and Grand Admiral Thrawn. I think Revan is criminally underrated in that field, since it was Revan who (virtually) took down The Mandalorian Empire single-handedly, nearly defeated The Old Republic itself afterwards, then fought his own Sith Empire after that, and he won those fights (mostly). If he isn't as tactically great as Thrawn, try comparing him to Admiral Ackbar instead.
I would say that for the first half of a theoretical Campaign against Thrawn Revan would dominate. His strategies are brilliant and he with his force users he would really screw Thrawn at first, but Thrawn would eventually eventually adapt, and Revan would adept to Thrawn's adaptions but I think that by a hair's margin Thrawn would win. And after winning the campaign Thrawn would be like. "This was the greatest strategist I have ever fought. And I respect him so much."
But in a single battle I'd put my money on Revan over Thrawn.
Metanerdz coming back with more banger videos!
For the next vid, an updated Rancor breakdown would be cool to see
yeah that is coming soon
2:45 That's what you get for copy/pasting data blocks from old HK-50 memory cores.
The fact that he got insulted when Boba got insulted. Does that droid secretly have the force or something?
It's possible to make 2 ppl mad at the same time you know.
@@lelostimulus9995 it isn't. If manage to make several people upset, you must have said something really bad, like calling a group of black people rapists or old men pedophiles, just because they look at women and younger folks. A droid isn't made to get insulted, and most droids simply isn't made to care about insults. R2D2, i can understand, cause they always forget to wipe his memory when they really should've done so. In R2's case, only Cad Bane remembered to wipe his memory, and droids like R2 is in a special league of droids, as we grew up with the droids in the main cast. Droids like 8D8 and battle droids aren't made to get insulted. They are made to shoot at other things and torture stuff, not get insulted for something that isn't aimed at them
â@@Chisszaru getting offended on someones behalf is not some grand achievement that indicates a social faux pas of extraordinary magnitude, some people just feel personally offended when someone they care about or someone they work for is insulted.
@@anthonyrodriguez8788 nope. That is actually a grand achievment. No one ever gets offended by insults aimed at others. I know, because i see it every day, and no one ever gets offended by that. Boba Fett wasn't offended, as he just looked on in a mildly amused way, and he was never once offended. That droid was not offended by what happened, he was not offended on behalf of Boba Fett. I know, because it never happen in real life, so it doesn't happen in Star Wars either.
I think what you mean to say is that YOU personally have never witnessed any of that behavior.
Ignoring the fact that people get offended on other people's behalf all the damn time (just look at Twitter) human social structure is extremely complex and throughout human history social standards change alongside the type of society you live in.
To take an example from Feudal Japan since Book of Boba Fett borrows from Japanese power structure, in ancient Japan if you hurl an insult at someone like a daimyo or lord you are not only disrespecting the insulted party, but also their family, and their servants.
Such insults cannot be tolerated and as Boba Fett's Major Domo it is that droids duty to defend his masters honor from such blatant disrespect even if his master was not personally insulted.
So is there a running gag emerging here with having Droids voiced by cast members from the IT Crowd?
Im glad you are still making videos and even revisting old topics when new information comes out
Great video! Looking forward to whatâs to come. Hoping for a Life of Darth Plagueis video someday!
I love these! Thank you for the content.
Thanx for this I have his action figure from when I was a kid in the 80s, but knew so little from the films.
The Verpine are awesome as well as Bothans.
I love that the first voice we hear is Maaaaaattt Berrrruuuuuhhhhh.
The droid looks like more frame than foe. Better than CZ-1 I guess.
Is it just me or is he understanding more languages from one episode of Boba to another?
They say early on they need a protocol droid but it's like 8D8 is pushing itself to learn more languages ready for talking to people the daimyo will need to communicate with.
Well 8D8 probably overheard that comment and decided that I'd he wanted to stay relevant, he should up his usefulness and learn languages.
Which I'm all for, as it's really cool to see what used to be a background character in ROTJ, now a forefront side character who gives us a C-3PO, but the secret ingredient is crime this time
finaly my droid gets the respect he deserves
i would say man, but its a droid
YET ANOTHER GOOD ONE BRO!!!! KEEP EM COMING!!!
Haven't watched your vids in a while, and I'm seeing your face for the first time - doesn't look like you need any Keeps, mang. Excellent video.
I still have a figure of him from 1983, a couple of em actually..gone bit yellow on arms tho from sunlight lol.. I didn't even realize he cud speak!!
This was an amazing video
Another awesome video, still asking for a secutor class video breakdown
Thank you Meta that was Awesome
Thanks for the hard work
Another good one.
Great video!! Are you planning on ever talking about Triple zero and BT-1?
That was DOPE!!!!
Iâve always wondered why the Sith donât use droids more often since they can be programmed to be âevilâ
Droids can be dangerous if they're as powerful as a sith. Look at the HK series of droids they would kill force users for fun and boredom.
@@JohnSmith-li6mn which is probably why they arenât canon anymore
@@macwelch8599 i mean that's not Necessarily true tbh . Now that Revan is canon he had his own HK droid and it's a fairly big part of his story so he's probably canon but to answer your question if a droid is capable it will be used efficiently but in order to try and control a droid they would need to put a restraining bolt on it which severely affects the overall effectiveness and programing. In other words most droids were programmed to defend against specif threats and even then could be outsmarted. Look at the IG series of droids amazing effective assassins still died by boba.
You forget that the Sith are a religion driven by their beliefs and agenda. Do you think they consider the emotions programmed into a Droid as comparable to the feelings you need to gain a connection to the dark side?
I'm pretty sure they would consider that actually heresy
@@DefinitelyNotEmma fairly debatable in the times of the old republic even the sith knew when a droid could be useless even if it's sending it to die.
Great vid
Nice video! Even worked in other droid models. Makes one wonder if 8D8 is at least blaster resistant with his armored body.
đđđ i love when c3po gets scared in the OT
As it's discussed a lot here, I felt I ought to point out that: Some light browsing into a not so light topic reveal that: For those unaware (dunno would the same apply to droids, who in essence spill the beans due to causing a set of protocols to conflict) torture isn't apparently a very good way of getting any usable information. This is because the victim will literally tell the one doing the torturing anything they think they want to hear to make it stop. Keywords being "whatever they think they want to hear the most" - so any usable, trustable, or reliable information isn't likely to be there. Thus, torture isn't really an interrogation method, but it's more down to sadism, and wanting to inflict inhumane torment on the victim due to enjoying that very aspect. Plus... if you want someone to tell you something, exact and concrete information: It probably isn't the best idea to go around giving them traumas and lasting psychological damage. So really, the best way to actually get someone to tell you something they don't want to tell you isn't to get the thumb screw ready, and to launch a brutal Spanish Inquisition sort of interrogation... but to just be kind, built trust, and in essence...try to be nice to em. Because, as it turns out, you get much better results without the fuss and nasty, evil business of violating someone's human rights.

I love the memes keep up with them
Well done.
5:39 Prior to this video I have never heard anyone use the term 'Centigrade' for Celsius, so thanks for that little research lesson lol
Great video! Thank you! Okay, Hasbro, TVC figure of 8D8, please! (Also EV-9D9, Amanaman, Barada . . . .)
Have you guys consider doing more videos about companies and organizations like you do with character biographies
Good video
I'd love to see more lesser known droids. There are so many you see but don't know anything about.
I suddenly have a great admiration of the Verpine species. They're just horribly misunderstood bug people. XD
Thank you, is there a video about the Imperial Probe Droid in the works??
The only droid in star wars with a 6 pack
Your star wars are so freaking awesome man thank you for answering all our questions
Are you saying he made Star Wars?
Good show
I think the J9 Worker Droid looks cool.
8:21 this part reminds me a lot of fallout 3 dlc point lookout
The best subject!
It is soo awesome the Book of Boba has included the Droids from Return of the Jedi. Makes the show so nostalgic
My favorite droid interaction in Star Wars happens in one of the Marvel comics. A squad of elite stormtroopers capture C-3P0, and attempt to interrogate him. Threepio then proceedes to babble at them for hours, until they decide he knows literally nothing useful
What's the background music he plays in his videos? Its great
Great video. Very fun for a studying psychologist. Lol.
And actually, pertaining to that statement âimagine taking a piece of brain that contained a certain memory,â itâs been found that the brain works more like a storage device that is fractal and holographic based.
Meaning that not one part holds one particular memory.
A test done numerous times with rats that knew the path of a extremely difficult maze.
Once the rats had the maze solved perfectly each rat had different parts of their brain removed until each rat combined testing wise included the entire brain.
It didnât matter what part of the brain was removed. Each rat that survived the brain surgery solved the maze as normal.
Once the memory is in the mind that memory is accessible no matter which parts are removed. (This is based on healthy brains and successful surgeries)
But does show the fractal nature of each part containing the information of the whole.
Perfect time
I like how 8D8 moves in BoBF. They really nailed his movements
Dude i love you videos! My gf's little brotger does to!
I imagine the Muuns themselves weren't terribly flattered by the 8D8 design either, despite the Verpine intentions. They probably would've seen its head as looking like a Muun *skull.*
I like the way his head is designed.
For a while I have been thinking it was Fennec Shand who sent the assassins, but maybe it was 8D8 who did it so it could become Daimyo and the "it will not talk" wasn't information but a command to the assassin.
Wow. First time I've seen you, and I wasn't really expecting to see you look like that.
I always wanted to know why they were burning the feet of a Gonk droid lol, I mean what did it do lol ?
Iâve worked at a lot of companies that would be very interested in this droid.
Amazon wants one of them.
loving the content , keep it up yessirrskii đŻ
5:00 So an even more warped form of Dead Spaceâs universe where clones are grown and sent to chop shops to replace organs and limbs of workers and others.
4:35 did not realise that this was a Tyranid origins video.
Everytime I see him I just imagine heâs Darth Plagueis trapped inside a droid
He's one of the very few bright spots of this show.
Where did you get the Mando Suit at the beginning of the video.
J-9's were protocol and language droids. Folks hated their bug-like heads. These J-9's were quite possibly the smartest droids ever made. Fully programmable for multiple tasks/jobs and their learning curve was fast and sharp. Excellent for pilot/navigators, smart enough to excel at strategy & tactics. J-9's intelligence and fast learning make them excellent 2nd in command (XO), for small crews (few humans) and for folks like Mando who have no human crews. Siak's would be my 2nd choice.
8D8 is cool.
4:38 quite possibly how the Qu made the post human species in All Tomorrows.
8:25 They are getting close to this.
Could you make a video providing history on the ancient Sith Lord Darth Bane orba video providing history on hk47 keep up the good work and I like all your videos especially those going over Sith Lord thank you and the history of Darth Bane video that is a request when I would like
Great vid, but honestly I just want Matt Berry quotes!
Have you ever considered doing a Warhammer 40K Necron video?
Oh gnarly
My new favorite droid
Droids are people! Droid liberation!
Please do The Roonan Species
nice droid good loyalty to fett
Jabba's Palace in the PS2 Battlefront 2, the screaming droids that were tortured were creepy
âThey served Bib Fortuuuuuuunnnaaaaaahhhhâ
J9 is so cool as well as death star droid
I really like 8D8, he is funny
The lack of reverence people show Boba after he escaped from and killed the Sarlacc disturbs me.
Considering gonk droids can survive ship crashes so that must have been some hit slap to hurt the gonk poor thing.
Pls make Mace Windu full life story
He's seems chill đ for me where do I buy
