"In his autobiography A Positively Final Appearance: A Journal, Guinness recalls a time he encountered an autograph-seeking fan who boasted to him about having watched Star Wars more than 100 times. In response, Guinness agreed to provide the boy an autograph under the condition that he promise never to watch the film again."

Now THAT is funny.

That’s why they shouldn’t give actors a Sir title.

It could have been worse: he could have been Mark Hamill...

Full disclosure: I was in the 1968 high school play with Mark Hamill at Nile C. Kinnick, aka Yo-Hi, in Yokohama. I was a freshman, he was a senior, but I played the school principal and he played Henry Aldrich. Mark was the consummate stage actor, and had a powerful presence, which oddly enough didn't seem to translate to film or television; I'm not sure why, because we all could see his dramatic ability.

Guinness also said that he got a backend deal on the Star Wars film, something like 1% of the net. Even that paid well for him and he made out making something like over $1 Million.
Even so I see exactly what he is talking about considering the extraordinary career he had.
