Yes I can verify this. It got the biggest laughs. The other scenes that got laughs were 2) C-3PO "Help, I think I'm melting!" tangled in wires. 3) Solo "Great, kid, don't get cocky!" 4) Solo "C'mon baby hold together." Talking to his ship while under attack. That last one I never knew what he said until I saw it years later on home video. I don't remember other scenes getting laughs, but I saw it 17 times in theaters early summer '77 and the packed audience laughed at all of these mentioned.
Remember, for this droid to be on every ship, its design had to be approved by a head of the empire, so the Chancellor and Vader most likely saw it perform and approved it. It was then given a greenlight for production by themselves
I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around Vader approving a design like that. The Emperor however seemed relaxed enough not to care. Maybe he approved it just to annoy Vader.
George Lucas wanted to cut that scene out, but his wife Marcia at the time, insisted it to be kept in the movie. I think this scene is hilarious & I love it! Mark Hamill once said in an interview that "she really was the warmth and the heart to those films, a good person he could talk to, bounce ideas off of, who would tell him when he was wrong. Now he's so exulted that noone tells him anything".
His wife at the time was the editor, so she had decent power to keep it in the cut. Unfortunately she wasn't given much credit for saving the disaster that was the script of the OG Star Wars.
@@Antiganos That's bullshit that has since been debunked. The "disastrous" cut involved her as well (including the ultimately cut scenes with Luke's friends, which she wanted to keep).
The only bad thing about Mouse Droids is that moment when you consider how many of them got destroyed when our so-called "heroes" blow up the Death Star ... oh, and when they blow up the OTHER Death Star ... not to mention all those destroyed throughout the galaxy during the various wars and rebellions. War truly is hell.
It's like, jokes aside, the death stars had civilian staff. Nah fuck the "Empire did nothing wrong" shit. Can we just admit the Rebels casually murdered hundreds if not a few thousand non-military, TWICE, and found nothing wrong with that? They're psychopaths, or so ideologically possessed they genuinely believe anyone not on their side is automatically Imperial and thus acceptable casualties. It's not good guys v.s bad guys, it's terrorists v.s fascists.
Sometimes, these droids are tied together with a string (imagine a toy train) and move around as a team. Speaking of which, thats sounds very awesome and cute at the same time
Mouse droids were used by many factions in star wars, mainly the galactic empire and the separatists. They were used to carry out basic cleaning and repairing duties, as well as carry secret messages and information.
Mouse Droid 1: You never going to believe what I just seen... Mouse Droid 2: Tyra Banks? Mouse Droid 1: You should say something better. What do you see? Mouse Droid 2 I don’t know, I just knew about Tyra Banks, can you imagine? Mouse Droid 1: Every night, Don’t shake my hand. Mouse Droid 2: You got no hands, Your a little truck.
Nick Frost mentions this in his autobiography about how, when he met Simon Pegg and heard him making these noises, he knew they had a lot of geekiness in common.
When I was a teen or a kid, these things terrified me. Not that they are scary themselves, but for me they were the ears of the Empire. There is no secret or privacy on the Death Star. These little things hear and see all things.
Rogue One might be the only SW movie without the goofy comedy, however NOTHING will ever best the undisputed heavyweight champion of stupidity, Jar Jar Binks.
That moment you learn mse-6 belonged to the Stormtrooper that Luke killed and took the armor from, so mse-6 thinks he's just casually rolling up to his owner... Just depressing, man.
the only good part of The Last Jedi was when they snuck onto the dreadnaught and disguised BB8 by overturning a trash can on top of it, and as it rolled around it imitated the mouse droid's "speech" in its own voice
there is no way the empire could have made something so happy and cheerful.
MSE-6 was made during the Clone Wars
Correct, it was sold to the Empire by the company Rebaxan Columni
Kitty Bacon it wasn’t made by the empire
It was originally a Republic droid but the Empire forgot to reprogram it with a more menacing soundbank.
@@AdhamOhm They should have updated their firmware with a Darth Vader soundboard.
My mother said when she saw this in the theater in 1977 the entire audience laughed at this part.

@@artistamisto damn... how old r u then bro? if u dont mind me asking
Yes, I too remember the comic relief in that scene. The theater erupted.
I was 9, laughed pretty hard. ET at Halloween was funnier though.
Same here for when BB-8 imitated one in episode 8 in theaters 😆

There were other officials responsible for this approval Vader and Palp were busy with other things
It's adorable.
It's a a-DROID-able :D
Mynameis Jesus Good one. XD
DaButcha Leave.
Darth Destructus I've been here over two years. You leave.
DaButcha It was a joke. Chill.
Being able to zip around in Lego Star Wars as a Mouse Droid is equally as adorable as vibing as a Gonk Droid
But less explosive
Am I the only one who wants a pet mouse droid?
NOPE!
nope
I think you could buy a remote control one, close enough.
Nope! I want one too!
Nope!
so freaking cute
bb-8 imitated one of these MSE-6 droids in The Last Jedi.........and I cant stop loling to it . Heh.
Adorable

One of the most iconic scenes in movie history
Without a doubt!
I just imagine Darth Vader tripped over one like a kid’s skateboard and force choking half the floor.
"I like chicken!"
"I like chicken!"
"Chicken!"
(Wookie battle cry) *screams in toaster*
Not exaggerating when I say this is the only thing I can hear when I have my pet mouse droid out on SWTOR.
"I love Popeye, I love Popeye, " sounding much like Alice the Goon.
"ive been fixen"
💀

Least Some Of The Crew On The Second Death Star Saved One, When Luke Was Dragging Vader
A long time ago in a galaxy far far away...
there lived a roomba...
lol
It's perfect
Sometimes, these droids are tied together with a string (imagine a toy train) and move around as a team. Speaking of which, thats sounds very awesome and cute at the same time
Given these things are sentient, that's more like a human centipede type ordeal
I love the mouse droid sounds :D
Same. I have one in SWTOR and can't stand to not have it out.
I need to set the imperial mouse Droid noises as my ring tone
@@traumatizedllama5370 gibbons
That actually wasn't scripted but thought up on set
Droid: Eeeeeek! *squeak squeak squeak whistle whistle*
Translation: Eeeeeek! Fuck this, I'm outta here!
No, It's HOLY SHIT!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Also, there’s an actual mouse in there. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mouse droids were used by many factions in star wars, mainly the galactic empire and the separatists. They were used to carry out basic cleaning and repairing duties, as well as carry secret messages and information.
I will publicly admit it: My favorite SW Character, before BB-8. And I saw the original film, repeatedly, back in 1977...
0:04
Mouse Droid: HOLY SHIT! _runs_
Lololol
Mouse Droid 1: You never going to believe what I just seen...
Mouse Droid 2: Tyra Banks?

WHY ARE DROIDS SO CUTE IN STAR WARS
I...Iwant one.
And thanks to Robot Chicken, we now know there was an actual mouse inside piloting the droid, who screamed and drove away at Chewbacca's yell.
Nick Frost mentions this in his autobiography about how, when he met Simon Pegg and heard him making these noises, he knew they had a lot of geekiness in common.
was like "nope "
never thought a robot could be this adorable
BB-8 cosplayed this in the new one.
Thanks a lot, Chewbacca. Now the droid is going to be in huge trouble for not following directives.
The shrug Chewie gives Luke afterwards like: "Oh, just screwing around!"
Chewie looked well pleased with himself.
When I was a teen or a kid, these things terrified me. Not that they are scary themselves, but for me they were the ears of the Empire. There is no secret or privacy on the Death Star. These little things hear and see all things.
When the droid pulls away it sounds like one of the new Formula E cars lol 😂
He was just cruising around having a good time, then chewy came along. 😂

( *Poor mouse droid* )
Without the tiny robot, Roomba wouldn't have existed in our society.
Fun fact its the fastest mouse droid ever and tk 421 one of the stormtroopers guarding the falcon was his handler
People say prequels had silly comedy but even the originals had some too like this xD
Rogue One might be the only SW movie without the goofy comedy, however NOTHING will ever best the undisputed heavyweight champion of stupidity, Jar Jar Binks.
@@ldsentertainment3130 The Holiday Special: Hold my beer.
its tiny moments like this that add so much charm to the movie
What about the Wookie attack on the Droids?
It is ok if they they sent a group attack later
literally googled "that small imperial droid sound in star wars"
Best star wars character hands down.
Best character of the entire movie.
This little guy is a beast could probably do r2 any day of the week
Literally has me in Stitches watching this Cute Little Squeaky robot and Chewie's Growling ,45 yrs on love this scene 🤣🤣🤣🤣
dern dern dickit.
i just died laughing. everytime i hear it now all i hear is dern dern dickit
Lol! 😄
Aww, Chewie was just saying "hi" to the little fella, and he scampered off!
That moment you learn mse-6 belonged to the Stormtrooper that Luke killed and took the armor from, so mse-6 thinks he's just casually rolling up to his owner... Just depressing, man.
The Stormtrooper that was also in a secret relationship with a certain Grand Moff apparently.
Oh man that’s actually sad
0:04 The cat scares away the mouse.
They should make a series about that little guy on Disney+
"ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ALERT!" - MSE1
As a kid, I thought it is something like a roomba (before they even existed xD)
That little guy never stood a chance!
Thats literally the cutiest droid I have ever seen
BB-8 does that same squeaking noises in The Last Jedi but I don't know if I can find the scene yet... sorry spoiler :P
Nikki Roessler that scene made me laugh
Hehe cool :)
Yeah That scene was adorable
that made me laugh in the theater lol. BB8 going around in a wastebin or etc and then making the noises was pretty smart.
the mouse droids in SW:TOR need to sound like this :\
Stormtrooper: Yo bro, chill
Chewie: Nah bro, I hate mice
Sounds like Alice the Goon saying "I love Popeye, I love Popeye".
"I have a son little droid that drives in the hallways"
I HAVE A SON LIGHT SPEEEEEEEEED!
Not really a spoiler BUT....for those that have seen episode 7, wasn't this little mouse droid in the movie?
+Kyle Beeson yes it made an appearance
+Kyle Beeson This class, yes. Probably not this particular unit. I noticed there was another, tall white version too.
+Kyle Beeson i saw mouse droids in the background so yes there are mouse droids in episode 7
Yeah but blew up
@@altaccount9267 nope, it got away
I can't get over how happy and cute this droid is. If humanity doesn't invent this, I will. :D
The mouse droid was just trying to say hi to everyone he didn't mean eney harm
"Let's see what this guy can do."
I want one that sings that song as it drives around my house
yo the background history of this droid is so sad :c
I can't stop laughing.
OMG I think that droid is SO CUTE!!
Toxic fans: Disney makes Star Wars looks like a joke unlike Lucas
Lucas: 0:04
It even squeaks like a mouse.😆
the only good part of The Last Jedi was when they snuck onto the dreadnaught and disguised BB8 by overturning a trash can on top of it, and as it rolled around it imitated the mouse droid's "speech" in its own voice
He’s just trying to enjoy his day😂😂
Still not as good as THE AMAZING DWARF SPIDER DROIDS! LOVE THOSE GUYS!
Who else came here from Simon Pegg and Nick Frost on Top Gear...
If i was a jedi i would've went to the death star broken into it and only take 2 mouse droids
More of an arc than Finn
best character in star wars
This scene always makes me laugh!😆
The scrunkly 😢❤
poor Wookie cant handle a cute thing.
Me getting this in my recommended 8 years later:
I need a roomba that looks like that
oh, wow...ok....so BB-8 impersonates this imperial mouse droid with its signature beep in The Last Jedi....I was wondering about that....
Mse-6 is scared of Chewbacca
Chewie snarled at mse-6 and he runs away
why chewbacca did scare the mouse droid what did that inoccent mouse droid do to you
Have you ever heard of the Droid attack on the Wookies?
This Video:
wheeeee
GROAAROROA
aaa
**cartoon running**
That's my favorite droid.
i hope at least one survived the death star explosion
Chewie hates it, but it's useful as a message runner.
So happy and cute❤
Man I thought bb units were cure but mouse droids are another level time to get both as pets
Chewie's face in this scene..😂
The new ball droid could be like this character, who knows. BTW I love them both!
The first bit sounds like the words David Beckham
Boy he grabbed 2 gear pretty quick!!!
Bar Doo Dipit. My new middle name.

K-9 (Doctor Who) as a mouse
U see these things everywhere in games
Even battlefront 2. It’s kind of sad seeing them destroyed when they’re in a middle ofgunfight
I don't know if mse-6 was singing like that
