On the entertainment website Heavy.com, some fans suggested that singer Stevie Nicks could stand in for Fisher in future movies

This poll feels like you are making fun of someone's death. It's ridiculous.

The idea that Stevie would be the one to replace her is pretty ridiculous, but Carrie Fisher's death will have to be addressed somehow by the movie franchise. There's also a poll that talks about Stevie rotting in her grave and people spitting on it, so.....

Wow some are way too politically correct and overly sensitive. It is a silly poll but the link describes the issue the movie franchise faces. I really doubt anyone would really think Stevie would jump into Star Wars :eek:

Tributes come in all shapes, sizes, and points of view. And even some tributes use comedy.
I thought the Cinnabuns tribute tweet was totally appropriate but some are too politically correct to find pleasure in satire. As Carrie's friends pointed out, she would have loved that tweet. But some of the backlash made them remove it.

I see NO ONE making fun or taking joy in anyone's death.

No. Nor would Stevie agree to it. She's not an actress and certainly not interested in being in Star Wars.

This poll isn't a tribute to Carrie Fisher. This poll is a tribute to Stevie Nicks. Hijacking ones death to lift someone else up. It is classic Stevie, however. Her tribute to Linda Rindstadt was basically a tribute to herself. She is totally self obsessed.

This is an exceedingly odd poll.

Who is Linda Rinstadt:shrug:

Stevie by her own admission is a terrible actress..The smartest career move for maximum exposure back when it would have really mattered would have been for her to replace Farrah in Charlie's Angels..she could have been as famous as Madonna ever was if this had happened.

Macfanforever 12-29-2016 09:02 PM

I think she does not like acting as I remember.If she did.She will be out there like Dolly Parton,Reba and other artists/musicians that turned to actors.She does alittle look like Carrie then.Stevie now has enough hair to wind up to make Princess Leia side buns.

Jondalar 12-29-2016 10:08 PM

She was dead less than 48 hours and you already started this crap. Pretty disgusting.

How was it a tribute to herself?

My mom was just saying a few days ago that Stevie and Carrie look like sisters. Guess she's not the only one who thinks so:shrug:

I guess it was the little spiel about how the song Different Drum inspired her to want to a singing star:shrug:

Carrie Fisher is irreplaceable. Bottom line.

In regards to the character of General Leia, she already completed filming for Episode VIII, and even has a much more expanded role in that film than in "The Force Awakens". With the final Episode IX, my guess is that they will not use her character in that film, and instead wrap up the storyline with Rey, Finn, Poe and Kylo Ren. Or, as some have suggested, if they DO use her character in Episode IX, it should be in a diminished capacity by using deleted scenes or expanded footage that they decide not to use from Episode VIII.

Again, Carrie is irreplaceable and NOBODY CAN play Leia but her.
