George Lucas has transported audiences the world over and has provided Mark and Harrison and myself with enough fan mail and even a small merry band of stalkers, keeping us entertained for the rest of our unnatural lives – not to mention identities that will follow us to our respective graves like a vague, exotic smell.
Speaking of graves, I tell my younger friends that one day they’ll be at a bar playing pool and they’ll look up at the television set and there will be a picture of Princess Leia with two dates underneath, and they’ll say “aww – she said that would happen.” And then they’ll go back to playing pool.
