The Force Awakens

If Santa isn't, I am.... I'll take that wish list...

*1023*

Well if Santa doesn't work out it usually is fulfilled by my husband.

The rest of that list consists of just one other thing - Ryan Reynolds - so both Santa and my husband have their work cut out for them (though I don't believe my husband likes that second item on my list).

So famous people just want to be in Star Wars so desperately, they come on set for a day and be a storm trooper. At least that is what I got from the article.

I wish I had that kind of pull. Same with Walking Dead. I would love to be a walker for a day.

Not gonna lie, I'd probably do the same thing...

I still think this is the best piece of Star Wars merch ever!

Poor C-3PO. That looks painful and wrong.

Does C-3PO say a nice quip when you pull some tape from his nether region?

"Oh. Oh, dear."

Bought myself some new shoes today. I would like to point out that the aglets (thanks Phineas and Ferb) are themed as well.

Santa better be paying attention. I want this.

Wearing things like this is why I'm no longer invited to family reunions.

Some Lando news -

Vanity Fair sat down with Kasdan, the magazine’s writer asked him if Lando Calrissian would also be returning for The Force Awakens. While some of the original cast returns for the new film, Billy Dee Willians has not been included in any of the pre-release hype. “Right now, there’s no Lando Calrissian in this movie,” Kasdan said. “But Lando I don’t think is finished in any way, shape, or form.”

That's news that makes me happy.

Lando did show up in Star Wars Rebels, so clearly some over at Lucasfilm still think the character has appeal.

... and Billy Dee did the voice.

Yes. In fact, it's quite remarkable how many of the original actors they've gotten to reprise the roles when needed on that show- James Earl Jones, Anthony Daniels, Frank Oz, Billy Dee....

In theory, that sounds remarkable.

But then you realize many of the big names also returned for the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special.

Yes but they weren't all that big then. And, in the case of Carrie Fisher, she was so tripped out she might have thought she was doing a USO benefit.
