She was looking pretty hot up until sometime around Soap Dish. I remember thinking :o ^-^ when I saw her in that movie.

Con, I think they used the same CGI effects on Chewie as they did on Harrison.

I think Chewie uses "Just For Wookies" to keep the grey out and does a comb-over. A really big comb-over.

Meh.  I'm feeling pretty ambivalent at this point. 

It's not even Jar-Jar Abrams' fault (this time).  I'm admittedly still butt-hurt over all the Expanded Universe novels being thrown out the airlock as being "non-canon"; it's going to be a long time before I'm ready to get over that.  >:(

Some co-workers went to nerdcon here in Vancouver a few weeks ago and got their photos with Carrie Fisher.  She looks like a crazy lady who hangs out in a convenience store all day playing Keno.  Did not age well....
I heard she had a stroke several years back.  If true, I imagine that affected her in the looks department.

In this film, when Leila says to Han, "I love you", Han says back, "Ehhh. What'd you say? I can't hear a damned thing you're saying. You know you're on my bad side don't you?" And then,"Somebody get those damned kids off the Millenium Falcon" as his dentures slip. Seriously, folks this stuff writes itself. :-X

A thought occurred to me after reading your comment.  Zahn was probably thrown out the airlock so that all the profit money from the new movie can go straight into JJ's pocket and he doesn't have to pay Zahn royalties.

It's about the money. Not fan loyalty. Money.

They're still going to have the highest-grossing movie in history when this hits theaters at Christmas, canon or non-canon.

Throwing the novels out is disgusting, as it has shaped the opinion and story of the Star Wars universe for decades. Basically, a reboot, and I can't stand that shite.

Spongebob?
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

I get the nerd rage about the books not being considered canon.  I worked at a bookstore at the time Zahn's novels first came out and they were instant classics.  Having said that, I didn't read any of them, so, the movie is going to do for me what it won't do for you.

Yes, Spongebob. When they made his pet snail Gary bark like a dog in the reboot instead of meow like a cat I was devastated. And we all know Spongebob is yellow and not brown! Damn that Jar Jar Abrams!  :knuppel2:

You're getting me wrong. There's hundreds of books that have established canon over the years - storylines, intertwined plots, descendants of the original characters, long and well-thought character development...most of which I have not read. I've read the Zahn books and some of the Rogue Squadron books, but otherwise, nothin'. I'm going to see the movie, alright. It just worries me a bit that they're ignoring that canon. That could mean another movie with lots of explosions and action and very little substance. Or it could be the most beautiful thing on the big screen, ever. I'm hoping for the latter.

I worked at Waldenbooks when Zahn's first book came out, so I'm right there. You should read them, even if they're not being considered part of Mortimer Mouse's canon.  O0
