Haha. I do have a fondness for 70s and 80s B movies.

As for Hamill, he was short and lacking in physical stature. He wasn't really a guy you could create a TV show around, nor was he a "movie star" outside of Star Wars. He could have been a very good character actor but it would have been difficult for him to break free from the Star Wars stigma.

So, he did the next best thing and became a voice actor. And a successful one at that. But most of those guys have a vocal booth and media room in their homes, so physical appearance isn't exactly the first thing on their minds because they're never seen.

Plus, he's old.

Batman fans love Hamill as a voice actor. He's supposedly amazing as the Joker.

I'm geeky enough to know about it, but I don't. (yet) I just enjoyed seeing him play Cock Knocker in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.

I actually kind of like "Corvette Summer" and have seen it several times. :redface:

I believe it. Lots of animated movies draw big stars, Shrek comes to mind off hand. But yeah, I think it is pretty demanding also.

Didn't they CGI that guy in Tron? If so it was a pretty decent job.

Yeah, and it was.....ok. Certainly better than anything we had seen to that point. Does make you wonder what they can do with it now, a few years down the road since the last use.

And I think they used CGI on Patrick Stewart and Ian McClellan in that crappy X-Men movie, too.

It was and it wasn't. Did it look like a young Jeff Bridges? Sure. But if you'd compare it to actual footage of young Jeff Bridges, it looked like a robot with a Jeff Bridges mask on.

It worked because we were supposed to suspend real life and believe that people are actually living in a computer generated world.

But I'm with you: Unless there have been some advances in the past two years (and they may have been - I certainly wouldn't rule it out), that's a tough sell to a Star Wars audience that's already tired of too much CGI.

I read somewhere that this next chapter is supposed to be set 35 years after ep. 6. So maybe they just roll with how they currently look if thats true.

Ah I knew it, thanks. Yeah I remember that too. That was done tastefully though.

ROFL yeah I figured. But hey...I'm sure they fixed the subtle things like mouth movement and such. That's how I could tell it was CGI when I first saw it. That scene where he said, "We're always on the same team."
