So sad. I was never a big EU guy but it's pitiful that they have an entire galaxy to play with and they refuse to venture beyond the 40 years before and after the Battle of Yavin. Expand the freaking timeline!

I think they'll get there within a few years.

Not yet?

Don't tease me if you can't please me.

Do you know something?

Nothing specific. Just go on like it won't happen. If it does it probably won't be exactly what is expected. I don't expect an announcement today or anything.

We paid $75 for my then-12 year old stepson to have his picture taken with Billy Dee at a Comic-Con a few years ago. He completely ignored my son when he came up and said “Hello, Mr. Williams.” Didn’t say hello, just stared straight ahead. For a little kid who was obsessed with Star Wars. So disappointing.

On Leia -

"Of course, wee can't tralk about the cast without talking about Carrie Fisher. The character of Leia is really the heart of this story. We realized we could not possibly tell this story without Leia. We had footage from Episode VII so that we could use in a new way. So, we were abler to use Carrie in a new way...we started talking about this movie and I was not supposed to be here. We lost Carrie, heartbreakingly, she passed. I was working on this film and I realized we needed Carrie in this film...She was sort of like always supernaturally witty in a way. I went back and I looked at her last book, the Princess Diarest, she had written and special thanks to JJ Abrams for putting up with me twice. Now, I had never worked with her before force Awakens and I had not signed up for this yet. Now, it was a classic Carrie thing, to do something like that and we could not be more excited for you to see her in her final performance as Leia. "

Spokesmayne on YouTube has a somewhat obscured, but completely watchable video of the Legends Award.

RDJ is the highlight (funny DL story). James Earl Jones, Hans Zimmer, and The Divine Miss M were not present. Bette Midler wanted to attend but had flights canceled by bad weather.

Here it is:

I got a good chuckle when Christina Aguilera said that her love of Disney started with “The Sound of Music”.
Although, Disney does now own its rights...
