Mashable editor Chris Taylor recently posted a video on Instagram of his Sphero BB-8 droid toy watching and reacting to a scene from Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens. Thanks to Sphero's latest update for the app-enabled droid, BB-8 now has a "Watch with me" feature that allows it to recognize where you are in the the film and act accordingly to certain scenes.
