    I think an "in loving memory" message is considerably more likely.

    You guys beat me to it!

    The story of Daniel is intertwined with the ST now and forever. At least TFA.

    Disney did a great thing, but even from a marketing perspective you can't buy that kind of good will with fans. I'm not saying they were financially motivated at all, but I think it did factor in at least slightly.




    So, DISNEY ET AL - if you or your staffers actually read this:

    Keep the momentum going for all parties. Include Daniel in the credits, or we will be at least a little let down. You have already done so much, so can you make lightning strike twice for Daniel's family and the fan base?

    I'll take it a step further - how about a commentary/behind the scenes (if the family allows) an extra on the DVD/Blu-ray?

    You know, if you guys really were as touched by his story as you have said!

    I'm hesitant on taking this to a 'calling out Disney/the execs/actors'... and you've already done so much... and you're certainly NOT OBLIGATED

    But Daniel happened. It was a big part for many waiting for your movie. He *at the very least* deserves a #Hashtag citation in the credits.



    And someone related should consider a NPO in Daniel's name. Maybe something like a make-a-wish geared towards SW fans? In conjunction with the 501st (paying their travel costs?)? To make appearances and help with the financial burden of fans in need?

    Disney, are you listening? You'll make millions, probably billions off of this franchise/TFA alone. How about a tax write-off to such an NPO (let's cover his med bills first!). What could be better than adopting a Star Wars themed NPO as the official NPO for the fans? Imagine how the fundraisers would go!

    Yea that is really cool. It would be even cooler if she had a cameo in 8 or 9. Back round character maybe.
