Mark Hamill Got Hot in His Old Age

**SPOILERS**

Early reviews from the premiere say that Luke Skywalker doesn't even have dialog in this film. He appears in the last shot of the movie.

Do I need glasses already? Because I am not seeing an sliver of hot in that picture.

He lost a lot of weight. He was a fattie only two years ago.

The studio put his ass on a diet. I think he lost around 30 lbs.

He does look good. Good for him!

I watched Kingsmen last week, and Hamill definitely did not look like he does above. He was a chunker.

Now to keep it off...

Mark is an uber-nelly homosexual!

The studio definitely made it very clear that Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill needed to lose weight before they got their ass in front of the camera.

I used to be so in love/lust with him when I was a mere teen back in '77. Will never forget how devastated I was when I found out he was getting married and having a kid.

Hamill was HUGE when he was on Season 9 of Criminal Minds.

I think we need to recalibrate

He never was hot. Even when young he had a washed out, meh quality about him. And God knows he's not hot now. I think a lot of people on Datalounge need powerful prescription glasses.

I don't know about hot, but there is definitely something more attractive about him compared to how he used to look in recent years.

At least he whitened his upper teeth.

You guys know he got into a horrible, face-disfiguring accident between A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back, right?

George Lucas created that whole episode with the Wampa face attack to account for Hamill's scars.

That probably accounts for r14's "washed out" quality, too.

Yes, we know R17. But accident aside, he let himself go for many years. Two years ago he could have been a Star Wars balloon in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Was never a stunner. Looks better now that he lost some weight. Saw him in a documentary about vocal actors ('I Know That Voice' , I think ....) and as others have said, he was quite heavy.

Happy to see that he and Carrie Fisher are enjoying some new recognition from new generations.

Where did the lispy gay voice come from? Was surprised when I heard his voice outside the movies.

I think my internet is broken. Can someone post the "Hot" picture of Hamill in his old age? All I'm seeing is a wrinkly guy with too much facial hair.

You want hot in old age? Look at John Schneider. Woof! He got even better with age.

he looks better than a few years ago

People are being kind because Mark Hamill looks better now than he has been. But yes "hot" is WAY overstating it.

The hottest he looked in the trilogy was when he turned around (in that sleeveless shirt) and said to Yoda..."Will they die?"

Meh he just got a good makeup artist and a perfectly matched foundation.

To me, it's not his looks as much as the fact that he's not a sourpuss like Ford or batshit crazy like Fisher. He seems to genuinely have a lot of fun with what he does and while he hasn't had Ford's career he has a HUGE fanboy following for all of his voiceover work and he seems like a cool guy. That's why I think he's attractive.

I agree r27. This is definitely worth a watch if you are a fan of Star Wars or just movies. I could listen to him tell stories all day long. He loves his craft and seems completely humble.

OP regarding his look, it's amazing what facial hair and different haircut can do for some guys.

He doesn't even rate in comparison to Harrison Ford. Omg. He's still hot!!!

Another *SPOILER*

Harrison Ford dies in the movie...

Sadly, he is still forced to pay homeless amputees for frottage to have a sex life

he looks like a homeless guy

John Schneider is a gorgeous homosexual (verified) who is said to be horse-hung.

Definitely liked his look around his Texas Wheelers time, especially with shorter hair. He's got an open face which certainly helps.

R33, John Schneider is gay?!!! Whaaa? since when? How do you know that?

BTW, Mark Hamill looks an old Baby Boomer queen.

Mark Hamill as David in the pilot of Eight Is Enough.

He was in a hot-rod made-for-television movie in the late 70s.

The plot offered promise of a future for high school dropouts.

John Schneider is an anti-gay POS...

he was sexy when younger. i always imagined him and harrison ford and i indulging in a star wars threesome

I had a huge crush on him when the first SW movie came out. I think it was my first ever crush. (I never did get the Shaun Cassidy Tiger Beat hype of the time.) I was shocked when I saw pictures of him a few years ago.

[quote]He was in a hot-rod made-for-television movie in the late 70s.

Corvette Summer co-staring Annie Potts in one of her first roles.

His son Nathan is almost the spitting image of him.

Someone crushed on mark hamill but didn't get the Cassidy craze?

They were practically twins

The amount of spunk that was spanked out by gay boys back in the day because the imagined being the meat in a Hamill/Ford sandwich could've populated a small nation.

I know what you mean, R32. Your not the first person to have made the comment. I think it's because Cassidy was very blond. I'm 51 and I've never had sex with a blond.

R44 Mark Hamill was blonde too. You seem odd.

Looked light brown to me.

R41 he looks more like Peter Sarsgaard to me

If I'd been around back in the 70s, I would've hit this HARD.

Here he is getting dressed up in a stormtropper outfit this month.

I had a crush on him when I was a kid, but after reading on a gossip thread that he chucked a bag of McDonalds trash from his car window into the middle of the street, I just couldn't feel the love any more. That was supposedly during his fat-as-fuck years.

Well he's an outspoken liberal r52. You should love him. He goes after the NRA at any given opportunity.

When I was kid, I had the large, 12" Luke Skywalker and Han Solo dolls. I used to undress them and make them do obscene things. Please don't tell Kenner.

R53, agree. A pleasant surprise to discover his politics.

He looks good in OP's pic. Lost some weight. Like the facial hair. He must have had some facial resurfacing (or good makeup) too based on r13's pic.

[quote]Well he's an outspoken liberal [R52]. You should love him. He goes after the NRA at any given opportunity.

Yay!

Is he gay? He did the "funny voices" on gay Brent Spiner's vanity project a "radio show/musical" cd called "Dreamland."

He's got kids and a wife (since 1978), so I doubt he's gay.

For gay rights and gay marriage.

"Luke Skywalker actor Mark Hamill takes stand on gun control"

Luke Skywalker was best known for brandishing a fictional lightsaber, but the real-life actor who portrays him in the Star Wars movies is taking a stand when it comes to actual weapons. Following yesterday’s shooting deaths of two reporters on a television news broadcast, Hamill lent his stature to the growing chorus of voices calling for gun control – and the timing of his statement lends all the more weight to it.

“ENOUGH!” proclaimed Hamill via his Twitter account in all caps, adding “Australia fixed it after Port Arthur 96” in reference to the mass shooting in 1996 which led the down-under nation to enact strict gun control laws which banned most civilian gun ownership altogether. Mark Hamill has never faded from the public consciousness due to the enduring popularity of Star Wars. But his acting career, long having settled into niche roles, is in the midst of a major resurgence thanks to his starring role in the new highly anticipated Star Wars sequels. That gives him more of a voice than in years past.

Mark Hamill also took a stand for gay rights earlier this year, changing his profile picture on Facebook to a rainbow to show solidarity with the Supreme Court ruling in favor of gay marriage. His latest stand in favor of gun control saw significant support in terms of retweets, but also saw a number of profane responses from those who oppose gun control. However they may have a difficult time arguing against Skywalker’s logic, as gun violence plummeted in Australia after gun control was stepped up. As he puts is, “America can too.”

I think he might have gone on Howard Stern years ago and talked about how people always assumed he was gay.

Harrison Ford looks fine to me but he seems "slow" mentally.

Mark Hamill looks great for his age, he really got in shape for the new Star Wars. He was quite heavy for years.

It's no secret that the studio told Mark and Carrie they would both have to get in shape for the new movie, and hired a team to do it. Talk about a sweet deal - how much would you LOVE to have your own personal trainer and chef, and all the while somebody else was paying for it?

[quote]George Lucas created that whole episode with the Wampa face attack to account for Hamill's scars.

That's an urban legend.

Then that is officially the most boring urban legend of all time

It was widely reported in magazines at the time. Doesn't mean it's true, but it just might be.

How bad was Hamills accident? Does he have visible facial scars? What were the circumstances of the accident?

(I'd google, but I'm Hoping someone here has quick answers. Thanks!)

[quote]It was widely reported in magazines at the time. Doesn't mean it's true, but it just might be.

It's been debunked. While he was in an accident, it was not the disfiguring-had-to-change-the-script, face-destroying event that urban legends have made it into.

If it's a myth, what DID happen to his face? He looks significantly different after just a few years

Wow, what a difference the facial hair makes - he looks like a different guy!

He broke his nose and cheekbone and that altered his appearance. However, coincidentally, he appears to be someone who quickly didn't age well, which would have also contributed to his slide in his 20s. I agree that no jedi mind trick is going to convince someone that he now looks hot. If anything, at least now he looks like someone in his 60s who is in 60s instead of someone in their 40s looking like someone in their 60s, so that's a relative improvement.

Hamill has a lot of Swedish ancestry, and Swedes age terribly. They're so hot in their youth, but then they hit the wall fast.

"He's got kids and a wife (since 1978), so I doubt he's gay."

Having a wife and kids...why, that's certainly proof he's not gay (snort)!

From an old DL thread with some juicy gossip.

'My partner was a cab driver during the time of the original Star Wars and picked up Mark Hamill, who wasn't really well-known yet, and dropped him off at a gay bar/club -- the Mineshaft? -- and Mark joked with him "Please don't tell anyone!"'

Some pics of Hamilll before the broken nose and cheek bones.

He was excellent in Samuel Fuller's The Big Red One.

I believe this was post-surgery.

I saw Star Wars last night.

I was stunned that the theater was only two-thirds full - plenty of space. It took a lot of effort to get tickets, so it's surprising.

There was clearly a huge glitch with the ticket sales online. I heard that if I had waited until after midnight the night the tix were released, I could have gotten seats at IMAX in NYC instead of one of the random theaters.

It was good, even very good. But, it was clearly a JJ Abrams film. It had his fingerprints all over it, from lens flares to plot holes to insert fan service. There are some plot points which just don't make any sense, so are included because the whole thing would fall apart without them.

It shouldn't be getting the 97% fresh rating on RT. It ought to be about 90%

Guardians of the Galaxy: 91%

Hunger Games: 84% / Mockingjay: 65% and 70%

Star Trek Into Darkness: 87%

Saw a press screening on Tuesday and was kind of meh about it. Then saw it again last night and absolutely loved it. I think it's all too rushed to settle in on one viewing, or at least it was for me. Once you sort of let go and just let it wash over you, it's a blast.

Saw it in Houston here at 4am today to avoid the crowds. The two leads the black guy and English chick have no charisma but the battle sequences were spectacular and whenever Ford and Fisher come on screen there's that magical nostalgic feeling. No spoiler here but when Hamill pops up he really didn't even have to lose weight based on how he's dressed and the shot of him.

Love him. Hasn't been this hot since doing Tai Chi on Dagobah with Yoda.

I'm still reeling over the old Mark Hamill thread with several accounts of his bi-ness.

I'm sure Mark is a swell guy and he looks like a butcher at any local supermarket.

Luke Skywalker is gay, and was very well known in NYC backroom bar circles where men would go to leather or dive bars and have sex in total or basically pitch black darkness in backrooms; and likes SM as he would go to the mineshaft before being famous; but it is too bad Carrie did not out him, and instead outed Revolta which everyone with a brain already has known about for decades.

Luke is or was into S/M, and paid Larry Townsend to be his "Master" for a weekend but I read this in a book about Casey Donovan who had done the same and Townsend told him this.

That's hot, R91. He was such a cute twink.

R91 is a troll who's posting the same copy-and-paste reply in every Mark Hamill thread it can get its hot little hands on. Try not to be so gullible from now on, R92.

R93 Are you new here troll? This is the book where Cal/Casey Donovan mentioned Mark Hamill also being a slave of Larry Townsend, and how Townsend told him this himself.
