I had no idea that the director of Couples Retreat was the kid from A Christmas Story. That's a great article.

I hate how Mark Hamill basically disappeared after Star Wars (being that I'm such a huge Star Wars news) but it really seems like he's getting back on top of things. He's got his comic books that he writes, and he's always been the best voice for The Joker on Batman. And now with his Black Pearl movie finally moving forward it looks like he's making a comeback. Too bad it took 25 years to do so.

he was branded as the face of star wars for 30+ years, that would be a hard thing to shake. Every time people saw his face they thought of star wars and he couldnt get out of the shadow.

My theory is better late than never :)

It is hard to shake a stigma of such colossal heights. I used to watch Married With Children religiously growing up. Now when I see Ed O'Neill anywhere I think "Al Bundy." It's hard to remove yourself out of it.

I think it's because he did Indy and other films during Star Wars. Hamill didn't.

While for the most part Mark Hamil was good he wasnt ground braking.
His acting is about on par with the original trilogies performances (im guessing I'll be flamed for saying that). He is an excellent voice actor though.

Actually I think many would agree with you on that one. Otherwise we would have seen him do more. Voice acting is where he really shines and I'm glad he's found a niche in that.
