Carrie Fisher revealed the reason why she thinks Star Wars is successful. Read on for more.
Looking fabulous while promoting a documentary titled “Bright Lights” at the Cannes Film Festival, Carrie Fisher shared with the Hollywood Reporter the reason she thinks Star Wars has had success over the years The 59-year-old actress recently reprised her role as Princess Leia in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which was released last year after nearly four decades after her first appearance in the series.
Appearing at the American Pavilion with her four-year-old French bulldog Gary, Carrie had this to say about why Star Wars has the appeal people are looking for.
“This movie’s about family, Star Wars is. That’s why it has the appeal,” Carrie Fisher said Saturday
Fisher also went on to say that she liked Comic-Con, the annual gathering of genre fans.
“I go to Comic-Con because it’s an amazing thing to observe. The fans are incredible and they bring the entire family. It’s about family and that’s the most amazing thing.”
Carrie appeared at Cannes with her mother, actress Debbie Reynolds, for the world premiere of the new documentary ‘Bright Lights’ which is screening as part of Cannes Classics. The film, set to air in 2017 and produced by HBO Documentary Films, attempts to capture the key events in the lives of the actresses. Fisher is also writing a new memoir about her role in the Star Wars films titled ‘The Princess Diarest’, which will be released later this year.

That’s a part of it, but Star Wars certainly has many different things to explain its appeal.
It’s about family is code for Rey is Luke’s daughter.
And Snoke is Luke’s uncle twice removed.
Latest rumour is Snoke is Luke’s son in some time travel nonsense.
Does anyone ever proof read these articles before they publish them? This article has multiple examples of poor writing, the worst of which being, “Fisher also went on to say that admitted she’s likened Comic-Con, the annual gathering of genre fans.” I don’t even know what that sentence is trying to say! Every day I read something on this website that has grammatical errors or is just plain poorly written. It is very annoying!

Maybe you could offer to do the proof reading?
If you think this is bad, you should check out the generic geek media click-bait site moviepilot.com. Their articles are chock full of spelling and grammatical errors.
“Fisher also went on to say that admitted she’s likened Comic-Con, the annual gathering of genre fans.”
Or maybe you just need to practice your reading comprehension skills.
This clearly says “Carrie Fisher also said that she admitted to liking Comic-Con, the annual gathering of Science Fiction, Fantasy, Post-Apocalypse, Anime, and many other genres of nerd based fans.”
How did you not gather that from that sentence?
This is called “creative grammar”.
Is it just me, or does Carrie look a LOT fitter and healthier than she did in the The Force Awakens? I wonder if her role in Episode 8 is more active, which would be awesome.
I would love to see Leia swinging a lightsaber. Maybe force-grabbing a lightsaber from someone, and charging at Kylo Ren: “You killed my husband you little *#&$^#^%!”
Was thinking the same thing. She looks great
For me, It’s the fact that it can incorporate so many different film genres and historical cultures without feeling at all forced. I think that’s why it’s not just an American thing since it draws from every real world civilization around the globe so it feels very familiar even it the presentation is bizarre.
meh, it’s about the space ships innit
