The news just came in and Carrie Fisher didn't make it.  It is a sad day for all of us who have watched her one the years.  Princess Leia will always be my first love.

RIP Carrie Fisher.

This is just tragic. She was every Fanboys dream girl. This is a sad day.

Repeating some of what I replied elsewhere.  Sad

Sad news indeed... but she would have been a shell of her former self if she had survived... to any reasonable recovery expectations.  A delightful eccentric rare light that embraced her life's ups and downs and was an inspiration to many young girls and women.

She will be missed by so many... and her Force spirit will be honored and kept alive by others... through acts such as  cosplay tributes.  Smiley

This is hitting me a lot harder than I thought it would.

I know I may be understating it, but damn, this is such a ******* bummer.

I feel the same way.  My wife told me that Carrie Fisher is America's True Princess.  The only one we will ever have!

No words right now.  I just watched the OT for the 2 millionth time in my life this week, thinking about her the whole viewing.


Well, the one thing I am thinking now, and please note I say this advisedly, is that Episode VIII is going to be a very hard watch now.


And one happy memory of her talent - she ghost wrote a lot of the Dialogue that made it into the finished film of Empire Strikes Back.


This article shows a page of the script with her handwritten changes - a lot of which are instantly recognizable from the film.  The dialogue would have been a lot more wooden indeed without her contributions.

Winning? Is that what you think it's about? I'm not trying to win. I'm not doing this because I want to beat someone, or because I hate someone, or because I want to blame someone. It's not because it's fun. God knows it's not because it's easy. It's not even because it works, because it hardly ever does. I do what I do because it's right! Because it's decent! And above all, it's kind! It's just that. Just kind.

All of us at work are HUGE Star Wars fans.  We actually closed the shop for an hour so we could absorb the impact of this.  I usually handle death quite well, even within my own family, but man, I cried.  We all did.  Despite trying to have a positive outlook about her condition, we somehow knew it wasn't going to end well. 

Carrie was my first female crush and someone I deeply admired.  I'm so, so sad about this.  I can't even articulate how I feel right now.   Cry

My New Year's resolution is to watch 2016 die.

I met her at a company social event 2 years back.  She was in bad shape to be quite candid - you could tell she was on some very powerful meds w slurred speech and somewhat incoherent thoughts during the 1 hour discussion / Q&A.  She did talk about her struggle with drugs and bi-polar disorder which paved the way for more recent healthy campaigns and initiatives.

RIP - Carrie Fisher!

Either you like Star Wars... Or you're wrong.

It's a bit quiet around the house, now. My whole family are fans of Star Wars and particularly Carrie Fisher. My wife and I loved her in "When Harry Met Sally", too. We got to meet her at Comic Con, standing right next to her and her dog, Gary Fisher, and I'll never forget it...



She is dearly missed and when I heard the news this morning from my 17 year old son who read about it first, I can only say I had a glimpse of what Obi Wan Kenobi must have felt like when he said, "I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror... I fear something terrible has happened." Indeed we are all the millions of voices crying out in terror that we have lost this beloved lady.  The best words of comfort I've seen today are in the statement that she has become one with the Force. May she find comfort, solace and rest in that place. I'm having trouble accepting that she's not with us now. It's gonna be a Carrie Fisher movie day I think, starting with a New Hope.  Cry
