Poor show, Wedge! You could have succeeded Akbar as commander of the New Republic Fleet...

He’s done a lot of TV work. He was in production of Dickens’ “
Bleak House”.

I agree with him, and they bored me, because they were absolutely awful.

Should’ve just taken the big paychecks and grinned & borne it. It’s just acting, after all.

I had no idea he was in all three movies or that he had a name for his character. I thought he was a generic x-wing pilot.

Good for him. The last three were mind-numbingly boring and any new ones will be too. Duval, to his credit, did the same thing when asked to be in Godfather III. He turned down a paycheck to avoid being in a disaster that cheapened the original work.

They all bored me. Enough that I never watched any of them.

If you’re not hurting for work being stunt cast probably isn’t terribly interesting. OK it’s probably dull if you are hurting for work, but then you need the paycheck so you suck it up.

...unless they recently changed the rules in Hollyweird, if you have any spoken lines at all on camera — even something like a simple, “LOOK OUT!!” — you get a character name and a screen credit.

That’s the way it usta wuz, anyway...

I get his point. Given that JJ Abrams is helming the next trilogy, no one would even see ol’ Wedge over all the lens flare ..

With “J.J.” at the helm I would have passed as well.

Lucas took all things Star Wars and murdered it with his reboot episode 1. I couldn’t even sit through the other two.

BUT for a great time search youtube for Mr. Plinketts review of Star Wars.
