Wildbunny Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 What a terrible year... From David Bowie to Carrie Fisher, through Prince and George Michael more recently... That's basically all my chioldhood that is going away in a blink... She went from top to bottom and still managed to get away from it. I was glad to see her again in Ep. 7. That really sucks... Farewell Princess, that young kid in me is not gonna forget you anytime soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Gd, seriously? A family just she was in stable condition. That's just horrible, man. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 RIP, Princess Leia. She didn't have many lines in The Blues Brothers, but I really liked her portrayal of Jake's pissed off fiance who he left at the altar. Lotta hard living takes its toll.

Gone well before your time She is, but if you read about her life (which she had been very open about), she lived a hard life on the wild side. Suffering bi-polar disorder, severe depression, addicted to/taking things at one time alcohol, pot, cocaine, LSD, prescription pills, I believe. I also believe she was chain smoker at one time. All that stuff catches up to you sooner or later. I was stunned when I read at her death that she was just 60. I remember seeing her in "The Force Awakens". She looked like she was 80. She didn't look good. She will be missed, but it was probably a hard life of drugs and alcohol that did her in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read something the other day about her saying she stayed off drugs for "a year" after someone died of an overdose in her house. That was like 2005 when she was roughly 50 years old. Needless to say, she put a lot of miles on her vital organs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCS Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Sigh. RIP Carrie. She very quickly endeared herself to many of us back in 77 when she first appeared,(silently),in Episode IV. She was much more than just the Princess Leia character,but that's not a bad legacy to leave behind either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rskins06 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Was hoping she would come through, sad to hear it wasn't to be. She was my first "celebrity crush" as a young boy. Glad we get a chance to say goodbye when they release episode VIII. Maybe they do something similar with her as they did with Paul Walker. Prayers go out to her family!

Rskins06 Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Yes, I know that. I was wondering more about a tribute at the end. Your right though, movie is finished shooting so not sure how they could do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
