Ford's always looked embarrassed about appearing in Star Wars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facekicker Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I don't think it is any secret that Harrison Ford has issues with Star Wars. JJ Abrams even mentioned it when he discussed contacting Ford about The Force Awakens.And I think that JJ took onboard Ford's issues when it came to The Force Awakens. From what I have read it sounds like JJ is giving Ford exactly what he originally wanted in terms of Han Solo's character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

appetite4illusions Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 I've never cared for Harrison Ford as an actor...because he isn't an actor; he a movie star. He's all about how heroic and handsome he's going to look projected on a screen that's 30 x 70.The only role I can find of his that required even a modicum of character intuition is the small role he plays in Apocalypse Now as a geeky lieutenant who can't stop sweating. Why so nervous, Harrison? Why the bullets of sweat in an air-conditioned room? These were interesting choices for a character; they suggested a life off-screen.

AtariLegend Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 If they kill of Luke ect in this new film or have them retire, so they can make 2 more films about a new generation then screw that.The whole concept to me of seeing a Star Wars sequels trilogy is about seeing those characters, not seeing a "next generation" of franchise feeders. I really hope Luke ect are in more than 10 minutes of this film.I was a Star Trek fan too, seeing what Abrams did with Star Trek Into Darkness awful remake/reboot of Wrath of Khan is a bad omen for this.

Even watching some old interviews about q potential sequel trilogy, it was clear that it wouldn't all be about Luke, Han, and Leia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, there where other old interviews where they said the opposite and that they wanted to make a sequel trilogy that had nothing to do with the main storyline, just Luke ect. in their 60's.Lucas done interviews in the 80's/90's that he later contradicted.

Facekicker Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) Ok talking about the big three here so don't click if you don't want to know their likely fate.Han has a major role in TFA. But numerous leaks and reports mention that he ends up confronting Kylo Ren at the end of the film and Ren ends up killing Han. There are also reports that Ren is Han and Leia's son.Ren gets fucked up badly at the end by Luke but for some reason Luke doesn't kill him. Most likely because he knows he who he is.Luke's role is smaller than Han's but it is significant and leads to a major role in Episode 8Leia's role hasn't been mentioned much at all, it is probably small but significant and will be much of the same in Episode 8 (probably because Carrie Fisher is too much of a liability to rely on for a major role) Edited May 11, 2015 by Facekicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PITBOSS Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) I'm so sick of superhero movies... dying for some star wars. the movie probably won't live up to a lot of peoples expectations but I know I'm gonna enjoy it.

Powerage5 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Fury Road has tided me over for the time being. Then I've got Jurassic World to look forward to in June and Terminator Genisys in July (j/k, both are gonna suck). A few months with nothing that excites me, followed by SPECTRE and The Hateful Eight within a week of each other. Then just over a month until Star Wars It's easier to wait for movies when you've got plenty of other new stuff that excites you in the meantime.
