Is he going to have a handicap sticker on the Millennium Falcon?

Who wants to bet Han dies?

Also I want a cameo by David Prowse.

Maybe he could kill and eat JarJar... yes... this would make me happy.

Nah but his belt line will go up to under his armpits.

Y'know I always felt that the Han Solo type character was what was missing from ep1-3. Hopefully he's utilized well in the new movies and it doesn't just come off as a "pass-the-torch" thing like the new Indy movie did.

You better roll that first 'R' when you say my name. Seriously.

Yeah that last Jones flick was a bit of a let down. And we all know that there's only one Han Solo.

Well, what I meant was that there wasn't some rogue-ish character like Solo in ep1-3. Some non-Jedi every-man.

As for Indy4 movie, I agree with you there. Was nice to have a new Indy movie, but still. What?

Oh God was that ever painful. Just seriously bad.

As for Harrison Ford's return in the new Trilogy, I hope it's in the cards for him to be deciding to retire or be actually retired or something. He's too advanced in years to be playing a truly young rogue at this point.

But I think it does open up the possibility of the stand-alone Han-Centric Origin Story movie that is being buzzed about which would require the duties of a much younger actor of course. But for the life of me I can't think of anyone who could possibly be convincing in the role.

Harrison's particular blend of "charm and smarm" is something that disappeared with the 1970's.

If I recall correctly (ahem) I believe Darth Vader dies at the end of "Return of the Jedi", or am I mis-remembering ? Roll

Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good prostate, kid.

I had to stop reading the comments right there...burning nasal passages from the coffee and ove again having to clean the keyboard of its latte stickiness just isnt worth it at times. Big smile

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Nope, you remember correctly.

Luke even burned the body in a Viking sort of way on Endor at the end.

So did not like the fact that they changed the ghost of Anakin at the end of Jedi.

Surrender is still your slightly less painful option.

There is an episode of Robot Chicken that has Darth Vader killing JarJar by throwing him out an airlock.

Let's just say it didn't end the way Vader wanted it to.

What's he going to do, hit storm troopers with his walker?

I hate you for making me choke on my cigarette smoke. Good job making an angry bastard like me laugh though.

The SW expanded universe goes for many years ABY (After the Battle of Yavin), more than a hundred.
Han Solo has at least 3 kids in that continuity. The "adventures" could be about those kids, with Solo providing a cameo-style role in it all.
Then also get that spin-off origin story going, with a different younger actor, and again cameos from the old guy "telling the stories of his youth" or some-such.
