Carrie Fisher

If you were close to my little piece of First Avenue around 9pm, you may well have heard me screaming and whooping it up. I'd just finished watching Return of the Jedi when I saw the man that makes the ending of that movie so right : Sebastian Shaw, the actor who played the older Anakin Skywalker in the 1983 original movie.

Nothing in pop culture has shocked me out of my wits so much like the ending of the 2004 digitally remastered version of this movie. Honestly, I was shaken by how confusing it was to see Christian Hayden's Anakin insted of Sebastian Shaw's. It was the arrogance of George Lucas that really upset me the most. How could he? How could George Lucas take this movie and mess with the ending? I mean, this is one of those seminal movies that changed the whole cultural narrative around son/father myths!
