hacks and frauds

Just let it go Colin.
its not worth it.

Star Wars is for children and infantile adults who I wouldn't let my dog keep company in.

>(a potential that actually was explored in the Expanded Universe novels)

I never read anything from Expanded universe. What were the most important things what happened in Luke's, Leia's and Han's lives?

Lets just say the worse of the eu surpasses tfa.

>why didn't they give this extremely mentally troubled addiction riddled 60 year old woman who hasn't starred in a movie in decades the main character role in the movie to kick off their multi-billion dollar franchises return?

hmmmm

>>87516232
Disney think turning a princess into a general is empowerment because women can't have their own ambition, they can only imitate male. Leia as an operational Jedi warrior would be ridiculous but we ewould expect something higher that fits her age too. She should have been administrating a whole system along Han solo. But no, let's go bak to square one, rebel versus empire, divorced couple, deadbeat dada and stronk womyn.
Put Star Wars to rest please

>now carrie fisher is dead

coincidence?

Does she take tweeting lessons from cher?

But making her the lead would have been a terrible marketing decision, she hasn't been a major star in years. Star Wars is 100% all about the bucks now.

>>87516381
You don't have to make her the lead to do her justice. Just have a few expository lines illustrating how she was trained by Luke, but didn't take to the stoic monk lifestyle. While she may have left luke's Jedi tutelage, she still incorporated his lessons and some use of the Force into her roles as a leader and mother.
It's that easy. Give her 6 lines of dialogue in the movie instead of 4 and you're done.
Now the fans are happy, that female demographic Kathleen Kennedy so desperately wants is happy and interested, and Disney can expand on Leia's abilities and relationship with the Force with comics and novels, which are safely out of the cokehead's ability to fuck up.

Erm, well....

Leia
-Gets a very important diplomatic/leadership role in the New Republic
-Has three kids with Han
-Eventually puts politics on hold to start her jedi training, gets pretty competent- not Luke-tier, but certainly nameless-background-extra-jedi tier.

Han
-Aforementioned three kids with Leia
-Does a bit of Admiral work chasing down the Imperial Remnant
-Chewbecca dies rescuing some kids

Luke
-Re-establishes the Jedi Order
-Gets married, has a kid named Ben
-Generally travels around the galaxy, helping people.

All this is before the massive invasion by extra-galactic aliens which they all got caugt up in.

Crushed by a moon.

Don't forget that Luke's hand is used to make clones of him called Luuke and Luuuke.

>>87517359
Luuuke was an April Fool's joke that autists took seriously, and Luuke only appeared once before getting killed off.

>>87516232
That would require Fisher to have had a larger role in the movie, and nobody wanted to see that face on screen for so long. At least now that she's dead her character won't be ruined even more.

>authors struggle to write an autistic man ape who lacks the ability to provide dialogue

Nothing was lost.

>>87517597
What do you mean she's dead?

>>87517660
Cocaine is a helluva drug.

>>87517703
Just googled it and fuck me I didn't know she died. Whatever though.

In the original draft. lucas intended for Luke and Leia to fight vader together. Leia would have had a yellow lightsaber.
