I've learned that the movies [Star Wars] will never finally end. It just goes on and on and on and on. I mean, it's going to be in 3D, then it's going to be smellivision, then it's going to be a ride in an amusement park, then they'll come to your house and perform it with puppets on your lawn ... it'll never end! I accepted that a long time ago.
Interpretation
The enduring nature of popular culture means certain stories, like Star Wars, will continuously evolve and adapt over time.
This quote by Mark Hamill reflects the concept that some cultural phenomena, such as the Star Wars franchise, possess a timeless quality that allows them to transcend generations. Hamill suggests that the story will continually be reimagined and presented through various mediums, ensuring its survival and relevance in popular culture. By embracing the idea that Star Wars will never completely end, he acknowledges the transformative power of storytelling and its ability to adapt to changing technologies and audience expectations.

I debated in high school! If you told things that weren't true or just made things out of whole cloth, you were penalized. It's too bad they don't apply the same standards to presidential candidates as they do to high school students.
In the earliest ages science was poetry, as in the later poetry has become science.
The western has always been, for me, the bread and butter. It's the easiest place for an identifiable Native American to be able to work. But I do yearn to be known as an actor rather than a 'Native American actor.'
Songwriting is about getting the demon out of me. It's like being possessed.
