I'm glad to hear that they won't CGI Carrie Fisher for Episode 9. Not sure why, but it just seems unsettling. Between CGI'ing, rewriting the script, and recasting, I'm almost certain I'd just prefer the re-cast, as tough as that is. It'll be weird as history rolls on how it'll be interpreted, but hey, it worked out ok with Dumbledore.

I think "The Star Spangled Banner" has had its run as our national anthem. I think "Don't Stop Believin'" by Journey needs to be our new anthem.

Hear me out: it represents everything about America. Nostalgia, cheesy 70s/80s rock n roll, drinking, karaoke, and lyrics that represent hope with no real direction or substance. It's perfect. And everyone already knows the words.

I gotta get my butt to the gym.

*grins* I like the idea of that as the National Anthem - it would probably be sung better as well

I was worried about them trying to CGI Carrie Fisher! I feel that it would be very disrespectful. I don't know about a recasting though. I know it worked for Harry Potter, but Star Wars has been around for YEARS. It came out in the late 70s and I couldn't imagine them replacing General Leia. I'd be upset actually...! xD

The Star Spangled Banner is SO beautiful though. I'm not tired of it by any means, as much as I love Journey! XD I love 70s/80s rock as well.
