The idea that Star Wars is a "significant part of our culture" is laughable nerd bubble poo poo.

It's a tent pole for a merchandising empire. No more, no less.

consumer products are a significant part of our culture and art meant for mass consumption has been so ever since the steve guttenberg bible imo

it's funny because han solo was like the one role he consistently said in interviews he wasn't interested in doing, though he was always really diplomatic about it "i don't think that would be best for me at this time" or etc. i think it's because he saw star wars ruin everyone's career except his and carrie fisher's.

then he finally becomes han solo again when the script calls for him to get stabbed :thinking_emoji:

I don't think so, though in Last Command he does briefly fight a mad clone of himself made from his severed hand that a mad Jedi clone swiped from the Emperor's rathole on Wayland.

Unless someone later retconned Mara Jade into being a female clone of him somehow which would be supremely stupid so now that I think about it, maybe?

people say this but how many movies or other major productions did he appear in after star wars, what exactly did those performances leverage him into?

he got a steady gig as the joker which eventually turned into the arkham series of games, but that was what, like 15 years of remaking himself from being luke skywalker? and even after that the best non star wars thing he could land was some bullshit in loving star citizen?

his career was over after star wars lol, he just had the gumption to make a new career from scratch.

yeah one of the great ironies of kotor 2 is that if you go get yourself killed in the first 15 minutes the villains would also have been defeated with very similar lead-up events. you spend most of the game raging against rage and attempting to make the void no more, but realistically you might as well not have bothered.
