	First off, I've never seen Mark bash SW. In fact, to this day I think he really enjoys the saga and is thankful he got the role as Luke. I'm not saying he has to like the PT, but I've never heard anything negative come from his mouth regarding the OT and how he was type cast. If anything, he probably got annoyed at always being asked questions concerning SW and not his other films. I for one enjoy The Big Red One, which has him in it. It's one of my all-time favorite war films. Also, don't post this in every forum, because if you do, I'll be forced to ban you. Also, I hate to say this but in regards to your Hamill post. . .PPOR! I've never seen a Hamill interview that was as negative as you are portraying. -----signature----- BSG Costume Group.

	Mark Hamill is a fantastic actor, as were all the actors in the OT! Well, THIS is a new one. As for Mark, I agree with Errant on this issue. His problem isn't with Star Wars, or the movies, or Lucas, or whatever. If he has any problem at all, which I doubt, it's more with the people who can't stop wondering if he has a real working lightsaber or something. There was a great Just Shoot Me episode on the subject. But Mark Hamill really has nothing to worry about with 'career problems' or what have you. He gets steady work and makes a good living, which is more than most actors can say!

	I've never seen mark bash the OT or the PT. He even said he gets defensive when he hears Jar Jar bashing.

	It's kind of ironic that Harrison Ford got to be the famous one because Mark was much, much, much better in the OT. He understood that his character was supposed to develop over the course of the saga and portrayed that very well, unlike, say, Harrison Ford treating his character the same way throughout the trilogy even though he was supposed to have gone from rogue mercenary to hero of the Rebellion and man a princess could love. Mark projects wisdom and forbearance in RotJ better than nearly any other young actor I've seen, and this is especially great when compared to the dramatically different personality he played in ANH. I guess in my mind he's typecast as mature Jedi, whereas to most of the viewing public he's typecast as whiny farmboy. But in any case, he's been a great sport about it, and Star Wars fans should be grateful the franchise still has someone who's positive about the work he did in the OT. -----signature----- "Sci Fi has been associated with geeks and dysfunctional, antisocial boys in their basements with video games and stuff like that, as opposed to... the female audience." ~~ SPOILER-FREE TILLLL EPISODE IV "there aren't that many Ls in til." - farraday

	I don't think Mark is whining at all! In fact, the only place where I saw him "whine" was when he said his kids got shunned by their school friends because Mark wasn't on the "A List", and that made him angry. And I don't blame him. I think he's a really cool person and from all accounts, one HELL of a nice guy! -----signature----- Founder of the Face Loran & Ton Phanan Appreciation Society Dark Lady of the JCC, currently retired Member of the Obi-Wan Kenobi Fan Club High Dominatrix of Flyboys, WJFC EUDF Captain, Retired Ravenclaw 0wns your sorry ass

	I've never heard Mark bash SW either. He's a good actor and one of the best voice actors in the business, which btw IS ACTING. Mark is one of my favorite actors and Luke Skywalker is my favorite SW character. It's your right to criticize him but don't expect too many people to agree. He has a larger fan base than you think. -----signature----- "Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering." -Yoda TPM "May the Force Be with You." "One Nation Under GOD."

	Mark Hamill rocks. He has an excellent voice, propper diction, and awesome inflection. He has lent his voice to countless documentaries and cartoons. Even, playing the Joker on a Batman Cartoon. I heard his voice on a documentary on the "Chunnel" and thought this guy is very cool indeed. I like the fact that he never mentions bad things about Star Wars, and he doesn't pitch crap like David Prowse. So quit your complaining, for it is you who are whining, DarthWindu71,... not Mark Hamill. -----signature----- Creator of...What would get you so mad that you would walk out of Indy IV? http://boards.theforce.net/Message.aspx?topic=24644049&brd=10265&replies=14 You can move mountains or you can throw stones.

	"Why is he always bashing Star Wars? Everytime there is an interview about Star Wars, always a negative comment!!!" What the **!?! Where's you get this bull **? Mark Hamill's been the absolute coolest about the Star Wars experience and the films. It's also very apparent that he's completely underrated for his performances as Luke in ANH and ESB. He was very good.

	" Oh come on, how would you feel if you got constantly asked about Star Wars? Alot of the actors who were in Star Wars and are currently have been fed up with constant questions about it. And Mark, poor Mark [sad.gif] he was fantastic in the OT, no doubt but it's just a shame that it type cast him. He could been a great actor, really had his career, like Harrison Ford's, push off from Star Wars. Let the guy have his say and leave him alone." I must say I am in complete agreement with DarthTerrious. ( ) Just because Star Wars is our life, doesn't mean its his. That being said, his son was in TPM. "it's more with the people who can't stop wondering if he has a real working lightsaber or something." [Galaxy Quest] "I knew it was all real!" [/Galaxy Quest] "he even agreed to be *** Knocker on Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, which totally, yeah, well, we all know what the movie did to the Star Wars image"* Unlike the Star Wars Holiday Special? See how Luke responds when Leia sings? Maybe this is what made you think Hamill had a low opinon of SW? "THat is something that doesnt make me happy." Agreed, but understandable from Luke's point of view. -----signature----- Yoda - "Do or do not, there is no essay."

	"See how Luke responds when Leia sings?" LOL, good picture sequencing and hilarious post MeBeJedi! I have to say in a way I symphasize with not only Mark Hamill but Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher but they all sure can be arrogent. Ford's the only one who really got made by Star Wars but sometimes he sure doesn't act like it. What's Mark Hamill done? A few TV appearences and a role in John Carpenter's 1990 film Body Bags. Star Wars was basically his one and only major break. But regardless he still seems to have alot of beef with interviewers who "pester" him with Star Wars questions. I wonder why. shrugs <[-]> Saber -----signature----- Slave to my R Complex. "It's all right. It's OK. There's something to live for! Jesus told me so!"
