Billy Dee Williams begins campaign to return as Lando Calrissian

[Lord Krit]

[QUOTE]Billy Dee William's manager Derek Maki has announced a campaign to bring back Lando Calrissian for "Star Wars Episode VII." Maki announced the news this past weekend at the Dragon Con Expo and also revealed that Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford have not yet signed contracts for the new movie. "There's a lot of rumors out there right now about the original cast coming back, and I know it's a burning question. Mark, Carrie, Harrison, and Billy, none of them have signed contracts, so it's all rumors, just so you know," said Maki, according to Comicbook.com. He continued: "We want you to Facebook, blog, and Twitter that you want to see Lando in the next Star Wars movie, so that J.J. gets ahold of him, because you're going to make it happen. And we have this new thing on Twitter now #BringBackLando, so if you guys are on Twitter #BringBackLando."[/QUOTE]

OHFUCKITSHUGE
Okay there.

Billy Dee Williams is the cool side of the pillow.

[MajorMattem]

There's no reason why they shouldnt put him in the film
It's fucking LANDO CALRISSIAN

[Thomo_UK]

Lando is cool, but his city was cooler.

[viperfan7]

I want them to follow the story of the books, this way they can at least use the same actors as the original and have it make sense why they are older

Lando "Billy Dee Williams" Calrissian

[EmperorScorpious]

After Han, Lando was definitely the coolest character.

But still not as cool as the refreshing taste of Colt 45.

Colt 45: It works every time.

[Trunk Monkay]

A star wars movie without Lando is a not a star wars movie worth seeing.

Now I'm not saying you'll have a better time with it than without it, but why take chances?"

Only Billy Dee coul make that sound like a huge endorsement.

a new hope

[Zezibesh]

[QUOTE=FreakySoup;42100179]a new hope[/QUOTE]

exactly

[Makrin]

I hope they put him in. Lando remained a pretty damn important character in the expanded universe. Hell, he invented the droids that basically helped save civilization as they knew it.

It's basically a T-800 mixed with a Jedi mixed with a Necron.

thanks for proving my point

[🦇Pachira🦇]

Wait, people dislike A New Hope now?

[Thomo_UK]

[QUOTE=PaChIrA;42100312]Wait, people dislike A New Hope now?[/QUOTE]

I think it means you don't need Lando for it to be a good film.

[MacD11]

[QUOTE=PaChIrA;42100312]Wait, people dislike A New Hope now?[/QUOTE]

I still like it.

[Skyward]

New Hope's great, but it [I]is[/I] the weakest of the originals in my opinion.

[Roof]

i like all the star wars movies

[NuclearJesus]

Hel[i]lo[/i], what have we [i]here?[/i]

return of the jedi is definitely the worst one in the original trilogy

i mean seriously, the ewoks beating the stormtroopers is just stupid

[Big Bob]

Eh, I don't know. I've never really looked at or cared for the expanded universe thing, so if they do bring him back I hope they can do it for an actual reason rather than just "hey look it's lando!!"

They made up for that with the pretty cool space battle over Endor in my opinion.

Fuck ewoks though.
