Williams made his debut as the gambling scoundrel in Star Wars: Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, reprising in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, and in countless other Star Wars shows like Star Wars Rebels and games like Star Wars: Jedi Knight II – Jedi Outcast. He even voiced the character in various Robot Chicken and Family Guy episodes dedicated solely to Star Wars as well as The LEGO Movie. Donald Glover stepped into the role earlier this year to play a younger Lando in Solo: A Star Wars Story.
In Episode IX, Williams joins returning franchise stars Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, and Adam Driver, plus newcomer (and frequent J.J. Abrams collabroator) Keri Russell.

Lots of ways they could take it.
Even if they DID use the "Hand Theory" as the basis for story and outcome, something that I could at least BEGIN to halfway respect, it would do nothing to quell the fact that Luke Skywalker was raped by a talentless, metro-sexual gorilla who should have never been given the reigns without a pre-determined direction and story.
As it stands, the trilogy is currently in a state similar to a Kansas City nightclub on Sunday morning:
The special stank of rancid beer, mop water, and the Missouri River hang deeply in the air inviting the poor, unsuspecting soul who opens the door for the AM shift to be greeted by an overpowering sensation of emptiness, and a hangover which can only be cured by slipping quietly to the bar and pouring oneself a tall glass of liquid courage to endure the long day ahead.

I think the right hand concept is interesting however the new movies are missing something. Perhaps it's just that I'm older and the special effects don't impress me like they used to. The characters are what drove the original Star Wars and the new characters simply are flat and unrealistic. The prequels were not the best, especially the mess that was episode one and Jar Jar Sith Lord Binks, however they attempted to at least give the characters some sort of story. Cardboard cutouts would be more realistic.
I don't know... Han dying wasn't really a shock and I still get a heavy heart watching Spock die in Wrath of Kahn.
Honestly, there aren't any points in the movie that I remember except for the green seamomma milk Luke drank. He was really hamming it up in that scene. [Reply]

I think Dane did it right; just log-off and disappear. [Reply]
I heard someone way back saying "NO NO NO, they're magnetic bombs shot out magnetically!" Should have known it was going to hell in a handbasket when Poe started making mom jokes.
Space B-17s were really dumb. Think it was supposed to be some magnetic shit like you mentioned but was too goofy to care. Those Poe jokes were also quite awkward and agreed should have been the tip-off in what we were in for. [Reply]
