    Yeah, and let me stress that he was signing free of charge. He was paid to be there from the CCG company for 2 hours and stayed all day. It's not like he was there making $25 an autograph like most convention guests where it makes sense to stay as long as you can.

    He stayed all day because he wanted to. To thank the fans. And he did it with a smile, a handshake, and personal exchanges.

    Thanks for sharing that. It's not the first time I've read things like this about Mark, but it always brings a smile to my face and hey, there's always the fan new to Star Wars, who may not yet realize how lucky we are to have him.

    And they say don't meet your childhood heroes. :D True for most, maybe, but clearly, not with Mark.

    I met him at the London convention a couple of years back... I got a good photo with him at no charge - he seemed like a genuinely nice bloke.

    My pleasure Trebor. I met a lot of other actors and athletes that I considered heroes who disappointed me.

    For the rest of my life I'll tell that story and hopefully tell my kids one day.

    It's a good lesson. Some people can play heroes. Some people can be heroes. It's very rare for a person to do both.

    You mean the title and poll options? I thought the same thing. Since people are enjoying discussing Mark, though, I'm tempted to change the thread title and poll...

    Maybe both Mark and Ewan are both under strict non-disclosure orders. I really can't see Mace being in the movie though.

    I wouldn't object to a change of the thread title, just because whenever I see it the word trombone pops into my head.

    OK, the thread title has been changed to not sound so negative... this has already become a general discussion of Hamill, his acting, and his POSSIBLE appearance in Ep. VII and beyond.

    Pretty shocked by this. He's like 30x the actor Harrison Ford is. The difference...Harrison Ford is a leading man type who made a living at playing Harrison Ford.

    IMDB and Wikipedia says that Mark hamill, Carrie Fisher, And harrison ford will be in Episode 7. WIkipedia is never wrong about movies and tv shows But I posted a link to http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2488496/?ref_=nv_sr_1 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Development_of_Star_Wars_Episode_VII

    But we still don't know how The sequel trilogy will co-exist with the expanded universe. We could get an x-wing tv series based form the expanded universe plus timothy zahn was asked by lucasfilms to write more novels of the star wars expanded universe and maybe being part of a somewhat expanded universe reboot.

    It's funny that IMDB and Wikipedia say that, because the "Big 3" have NOT been officially confirmed yet. And both sites CAN be wrong.

    Edit: That Wikipedia page says "It appears likely that cast members Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill andCarrie Fisher from Episodes IV, V, and VI will appear in the film.", while the IMDB page says "(rumored)". Come on.

    First of all, please use the EDIT function to add to your posts instead of making back-to-back posts.

    Second, it is NOT officially confirmed they will be in it. We don't know that Harrison signed on, that Mark was getting in shape for the role, or that Carrie is going to be in it. They PROBABLY will be, it appears likely, and fans hope for it. But it is not established yet.

    Here's something fairly recent with Hamill in a live-action-ish setting. In the clip, as far as I could see, he needs to improve himself physically. The acting bit, he's got it down I feel. It's from 1:28-1:38
