Why are people being weird on about this?

anakin-skylord:

Mark Hamill is collaborating with The Sun for Star Wars Day and people on twitter and instagram are acting like he’s joining the ranks of Hitler or something.

Chill.  The Sun is awful, but Mark is not. 

The Sun has attracted some extra, well-deserved ire recently for its coverage (or lack thereof) of the Hillsborough enquiry, so a lot of old wounds are re-opened at the moment.

(I’m not pissed at him or anything – he’s American for a start so he probably doesn’t know how bad they are – but I do wish he hadn’t done it.)
