Goodnight our sweet princess. There is one less star burning bright in our galaxy today; but, forever it will shine on from one far, far, away.
My heart is broken for Debbie, Billie, and Gary.
I've been fortunate enough to get close to many in the Lucasfilm family and I feel for my friends that have to go back to work in the coming days on her final performance. They have a heavy burden on their shoulders.
Thank you Carrie for contributing to the best childhood a young boy could ever have.

I'm sure they have enough footage from deleted scenes to use for silent holograms like they did at the end of E6.

Have most Star Wars actors of the original films chimed in? Just saw Harrison Ford's message.
So sad.
So sad.
Honestly, I have mixed feelings about a possible Leia CGI in Episode IX.
I don't want a Tarkin-esque Carrie Fisher for more than a second or two because they might botch it up too much.
But, on the other hand, I want a epic end to Leia in Star Wars, much more than what we saw in Episode VII. I hope that we get a good story for Leia in Episode VIII

(although the rumors aren't good).

As awe inspiring as I found Princess Leia to be as a little girl, it turned out to be nothing in comparison to the perpetual jaw-dropping amazement at the glory of Carrie Fisher I've experienced as an adult. Her bravery, her wit, her honesty, her incredible intelligence - she was an absolute inspiration. My love and thoughts are with her family and friends. A small part of me was optimistically hoping she'd be on Ellen in a year with Gary telling anecdotes about the whole incident. Thank you for everything, darling Carrie. You will be desperately, desperately missed.

From Kevin Smith's Twitter account:
She made a cameo in the movie 'Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back' along with Mark Hamill.

Not sure if its been posted already in the thread, but I like this.
I thought bras were made to expand? They are made of elastic. No?

Regardless of today's events I would have loved this outcome for Leia and Ben.
Not sure if its been posted already in the thread, but I like this.
Ha, loved how she was never afraid to spill the beans on anything. Got some good stories.
What did he say?

Clearly, the logical solution here is to wear a metal bikini instead.

John Campea of Collider made a very lovely video about what Carrie meant to him.

If Leia shows up next her father, Obi-Wan, and Yoda when they transcend death using the force at the end of Return of the Jedi at the end of the next movie I will cry :-(
I really doubt they are going to change Epusode VIII to kill
her off, it already finished filming.

I hope we get a tribute for Carrie before Ep8 story crawl. That will be nice to see.

I'll be honest, I thought that stuff was terrible in F&F. I don't know what the right thing to do in Star Wars is, but I don't want a fourth wall breaking scene like that, that's for sure.

What if they filmed a death on-screen and they want to tone this down now?

That's a bold prediction.
FUCK this is still hitting me hard. I know it's been said plenty of times, but she is an Icon. Obviously Leia is, but Carrie made herself one outside of the movies. Just being who she was. She'll be remembered for so long after this.
She's ingrained in the hearts of millions.

Guess star wars celebration next year will suck
Nah. It'll be a celebration. And if it's not, every single Star Wars fan there will be doing her a disservice. Her, and themselves.
Celebration needs to be the biggest, goofiest, most irreverent wake for Princess Leia there will ever be. And people need to laugh til their tear-stained cheeks hurt.

It'll be bittersweet, but imo it should definitely be a celebration. Celebrate her life and contributions.

RIP. There is nothing else to say
This. It needs to be a celebration. Carrie wouldn't have it any other way imo. Laugh, cry, jump for joy etc. But make it be an experience that everyone will remember and will want to remember for the rest of their lives.
Posts like this are why I'm glad you're back.

“Carrie was one-of-a-kind… brilliant, original. Funny and emotionally fearless. She lived her life, bravely,” Ford said. “My thoughts are with her daughter Billie, her mother Debbie, her brother Todd, and her many friends. We will all miss her.”
