    It's purely a story driven decision. I seriously doubt that Leia would have time to scarf down cheeseburgers with the galaxy in the state it's in.

    Since they are cherry picking ideas from the Zahn books, I am holding out hope that someone calls Leia "Lady Vader".

    Yeah, but that goes with everyone.


    You know what I have to say about people that whine about how "appearance driven" things are?

    Go find me one unattractive person that doesn't think of anyone as repulsive.

    I'll take this stuff seriously the moment "unattractive" people realize they're part of the "problem," if you can even call it that.

    Lady Vader is a great moniker, but I wonder if the public will know the familial details of the skywalker clan.

    It isn't that ugos can't tell who is pretty, but we generally just value other qualities. We know that pretty people would likely dump all over us, so we find like minded ugos to love.

    I'm not calling you or anyone ugly, but in general what you're describing is known as settling. If an ugly person could get someone they were physically attracted to, they would.

    Staying with someone you love, even if there are people more physically attractive out in the world is settling? That is far too cynical for my tastes. For most people, there are plenty of other factors to consider besides looks in the quality of a relationship. But then again, this is the culture we live in. The one Carrie is talking about. Bright and shiny on the outside, but hollow on the inside. Looks first, everything else a distant second.

    Remember that Hollywood is AALLLL about looks, so poise this question to yourself: Would you want a 200-poundish Leia or a '105 - 131' - pound Leia after 30 years ? It's all about conveying the look and feel of what came before but also evolving it for the future .
