http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Anzat_(species)
Once a victim was within their power, the Anzati would uncoil their thin proboscises from their cheek pouches located on either side of its nose and usually inserted them into the subject's nostrils and into the cranium, where the brain was sucked out of the organism(2), though the Anzati fed by drawing soup out of wherever it resided in a victim, as it varied by species. In most humanoid races, it lay within the brain cavity. Almost of their own, the proboscises sought the victim's soup, and began draining it into the Anzat. The victim could struggle, though often the Anzat's attack was so sudden, so perfect, that it was too late(7) This action, however, required time and could not be rushed. This behavior led to the nickname of "snot vampires."(1)

Prince Harry apparently got to sit in the new A-Wing model the other day. So that means we get A-Wings in this one.

why don't they just re-cast the role? I dunno I think the fans would understand.

"why don't they just re-cast the role? I dunno I think the fans would understand."
uh, no, that would be a terrible idea. they're going to have to kill her off between 8 and 9. I don't see any other option.
― akm, Thursday, 5 January 2017 20:16 (seven years ago) link
I guess the easiest option would be to have Leia die in Ep. VIII, then bring her back in Ep. IX for a couple of crucial scenes as a Force ghost? That'd make the CGI feel less jarring, and there's already a presedence with Obi-Wan.
― Tuomas, Thursday, 5 January 2017 20:16 (seven years ago) link
obviously the already-dead jedi devised some sort of force-based safety net to catch non-jedi after death, so they can bring han solo back as a ghost
― mh π, Thursday, 5 January 2017 20:23 (seven years ago) link
A la Nancy Marchand's posthumous scenes in The Sopranos, they should have characters awkwardly responding to repurposed Leia footage from previous movies.

Reports are that as of the next trilogy the series will be retitled Death Star Wars and will document a future world where sentient Death Stars of various sizes and alignments have supplanted all life in the galaxy and now spend their days evaporating one another.
(And I remembered halfway through typing out that utterly ridiculous scenario that, thanks to the EU, we know that the original Death Star HAD technically achieved sentience just before it was destroyed. Dear, dear lord.)
― Dr. Shitfuck (Old Lunch), Friday, 6 January 2017 23:50 (seven years ago) link
Your scenario sounds like Phantasm 6.
― how's life, Friday, 6 January 2017 23:58 (seven years ago) link
xp i don't recall the original death star achieving sentience but i do recall that bounty hunter droid mind-melding (apologies for geek terminology crossover) with the second death star moments before it was destroyed. and i resent my brain for maintaining that piece of information while discarding so much more useful stuff.

Oh sorry, you're right, it was the second Death Star. But, yeah, IG-88 uploading himself was what I was referring to and why I said 'technically'. I'm glad to know I'm not alone in my affliction.

Kinda feel like the attitudes noted here re: recasting Leia are not reflective of the nerdverse writ large.

maybe we can just overhear her from offscreen and only see shadows or she will conveniently be on the can every time she's in a scene

So either Luke will die in this, so that Rey will become the eponymous character, or it'll have lots of flashbacks to the years when Luke literally was the last Jedi?
