Does anyone else wonder if Alec Guinness and James Earl Jones had payments to ex-wives or bookies that forced them to sign on with George Lucas to make Star Wars? I really enjoy the first movie that came out in the ’70’s, but you have to admit it’s not exactly the Royal Shakespeare Company or The Bridge Over the River Kwai.

/ February 3, 2012It's ALWAYS about the $$… They may have been great actors, but they needed $$ to live on.

/ February 4, 2012Yeah, everybody has to eat. But don't discount the “fun” factor either. I'll bet both of them enjoyed making that movie. I know I had fun watching it. Indeed, “Star Wars” was the first movie I ever paid money to see in the theater twice. …actually, three times. I took a girlfriend to see it on the third go around. It turned out to be a “great” date too.
