Mark Hamill is only “relevant” for playing Luke Skywalker in the first 3 Star Wars flicks. Late 1970s, early 1980s. Go back to your cave, Luke, and leave the rest of us alone.
“Remember the days when actors only acted?”
I’m not sure if there really were ever those days. I don’t think HUAC in the 50’s was just a witch hunt. Despite the best efforts of the press to smear those on the committee, there were actual commies in Hollywood then, just like now.
Life is bitter for an actor whose only claim to fame is one role in a kiddies movie.
Al Pacino, he ain’t.
Star Trek is vastly superior over Star Wars, the original trilogy wasn’t bad. All the ones made by Disney was terrible except for Star Wars Rogue One, which was terrific.
They should.
🤣🤣
This guy just made the faux pas of agreeing with Bette Midler about trannies!
Trying to get back in PC woke good graces, I guess.
(Luke went to the Dark Side of the Force)
The Stupid is strong in this one.
I'm sure that many "leftist" Hollywood actors aren't leftist at all. Many are apolitical, but afraid of the woke mob. And a few are even conservatives hiding deep in the closet.
Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford carried Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi.
“Fundamentally, actors are a race apart. This group is divided into two sections: first, those who have talent and have never received any recognition for it, and, second, those who have received recognition without having any talent. Either way, they’re cattle.” - Alfred Hitchcock, 1941.
My sister-in-law’s sister fosters children for a short time in Florida. Hard to adopt because the courts like to reunite them with their families. One thing she said is that you hear horrific stories of abuse, most of it deals with rape even as young as babies. Lots of emotional burnout with foster parents because of that.
He probably supports rump-rangers adopting, however.
I don’t know where you got your information from but it is spot on.
We played child ping pong with the drug addicted mother for 3 years. The courts gave her 15 second chances.
Most of the agency’s are government contractors. The longer they keep the kid in limbo the more money they make.
I triple dog dare anyone to prove me wrong.
I agree with everything that’s been said about foster care, and will add in my 2 cents. We did foster with the intent to adopt and it didn’t work out because the foster care system is run by libs and
1) the goal is ALWAYS to reunite parents with their kids.
2) it takes a lot for a child to be taken from their parents and that means that the children have been through severe emotional/physical/sexual abuse or neglect by the time they enter the system.
3) see number 1. These poor children are returned to their abusive parents over and over again, causing even more harm. Parents rights are put first and the children’s rights are last.
4) see number 1. It’s very, very difficult to adopt out of the foster care system.
We need a huge overhaul of the child welfare/foster care system.
He is DEMONIC!! PURE EVIL!
That’s interesting. The older of my two adopted sons gave me a shirt for Father’s Day. It says “Best Dad Ever” and has a picture of Darth Vader on it.
I guess I am a supervillain and didn’t even know it.
And look at how many HOMOSEXUAL COUPLES GET BABIES....SOMETIMES TWO OF THEM!!!
I know a couple of people who adopted foster children. It has been a blessing all around.
My wife and I cared for several foster children. We adopted two special-needs boys. We have a wonderful family.
Here’s one foster care story-
Agency calls in the middle of the night to say they have 2 siblings. One was 3 and 1 was newborn. Filthy house, not even salt in the cupboard to eat. No formula for baby (mom not BF).
Children arrive wearing basically nothing and agency says be sure to give them baths and check for bugs. So my husband and I do that at like 3am. The 3 year old is sobbing, of course. Long story short, the children stay and we do the going to the doctor to get them checked, buy them clothes (some with vouchers), things that need to be done. The kids settle in and it’s time for a parent visit. I take them about 10 miles away for assigned meet up and parents are no-show. That happened twice. The parents did not come to see their own 3 year old or newborn once.
The children stay about a month and are thriving. I get a call one day that says the judge ordered them to go home! The agency comes and get the kids and takes them to their parents.
A few weeks later I get a call that the children have been picked up again and we were asked to take them again. We were out of town for a family emergency and they were placed elsewhere.
I pray for those kids every day.
That’s just one story.
