OT: Actress Carrie Fisher Dies at 60

The stars are dropping like flies this year. And very youngish too.

I bet anyone who is in the music industry or the entertainment industry is going to be thankful that 2016 is over in a few days... (if they are still around that is).

It's amazing how many big name people passed away this past year.

Bummer. RIP Carrie

RIP. Carrie.
I will remember her as Princess Leia.
Disney has enough creative talent to either give her a great funeral in her movies or do something for her to remember her. I heard it will likely change things for the next Star Wars movie yet to be filmed unless they refilm parts of the film they already did.

Her parts in episode 8 have already been filmed

Oh not to worry, it's Disney. Grand Moff Tarkin was in Rogue One and the actor has been dead for over 20 years. If Disney thinks it will put a few more asses in the seats, Leia will be in the movies forever.

I am sorry to hear she has died. I met Carrie Fisher once ( over 20 years ago I had a 5 minute conversation with her near a restaurant hostess desk, while the staff moved a seated couple to make room for Carrie's small group). She was polite, conversational, and acted pleased that I didn't recognize her at first. She even stopped by my table on her way out and thanked me for a comment I made in our brief conversation. What amazed me was she remembered my name.
