Originally Posted By wahooskipper I don't think all three will die but Han wouldn't surprise me. And, I think the survivors don't get past episode 7. If you are going to pass the torch you cannot keep hanging on to it.

Originally Posted By CuriousConstance It's hard to imagine a scenario of them coming back that isn't hokey, cheesy, and uncomfortable.

And I had no idea Disney was considering another Star Wars movie. I would gander ... Star Wars fans are doing the happy dance! ;-)

Hopefully Ford, Hammil and Fisher will be part of it, at least of Episode VII. It would be interesting to know the director and some of the actors.

Bob Falfa (Ford's character) was not one of the local high school teenagers in the story, so I can easily believe he's that old.

My hope is for the tone set in episodes 4 and 5.

My guess ... it would pick up with children of Leia and Han .... becoming adults (20 years from ep6, perhaps) .... and becoming a jedi themselves. The new generation picking up the torch. It's been 30 years since "Return of the Jedi" ... and carrying a timeline that would be 20 years from Ep6's time frame ... does not sound so unreasonable .... 10 years faking their age ... not a huge stretch.
