  • By far, the most exciting thing about the new "Star Wars" is the fact that the original cast is back together. But getting everyone to commit proved tricky for director J.J. Abrams.

    Way back after the original trilogy and either 2 or 3 Indiana Jones movies, Harrison was asked if he'd play Han Solo again and he said no because the character was too one dimensional. The interviewer then asked if he'd play Indiana again and he said "In a New York Minute."
    I'm surprised they talked him into it.

    I saw 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' yesterday with my 40-year-old son. We both agreed it was great! Even the aged characters were plausible, and the whole aura & theme were consistent with the originals nearly 40 years ago. Harrison totally re-captured his smart-ass Han Solo without missing a beat; remarkable for a Seventy-Something! This movie will win some Oscars!

    If only colbert's show wasn't mostly about politics (that just aint my thing) this would probably be my fav late night show these days

    Wow! I missed this particular show, but what a GREAT skit !! Stephen did a good job with that characterization, and Harrison was just adorably cranky LOL Now I wonder, was that really J.J. Abrams? LOL
