I usually don't care too much about the life and death of celebrities, but I grew up with Star Wars.

Mark Hamill has died following an automobile accident near his home, Hollywood Now has confirmed. t was near his home in Malibu, California, and he was the passenger in the vehichle.

The Los Angeles County coroner said, Hamill was a passenger in a car making a turn in Malibu, Calif., when it was hit broadside by another car and knocked into a third vehicle. The car was hit broadside into another car, and the driver was Hamillâ€™s son, Hayden Christensen. Christensen is currently in critical condition.

Hamillâ€™s longtime wife, Marilou York, said in a statement to Now, â€œIâ€™m stunned. Weâ€™ve lost our heart and soul. This is an extremely difficult for me. I am at a loss for words. Mark was a wonderful father and husband. I pray for our son, Griffin. Please be respectful of Mark and his family in this time as we need the time to process this horrible accident.â€

Hayden isn't his son. WTF? Typo? Joke?

I wonder if he will have a big memorial service like MJ? Hm, kinda doubt it.

It has to be true, I saw it on the internet!

I 'dunno. I haven't heard anything to the contrary.

I don't really like hoax stories posted as if they are true here.

It's BS. Wikipedia would have been all over this by now.

I can't find it anywhere on the big networks. Anyway he would have used the force.

Well, I guess that's good to know. Sorry about posting a BS story.

I suppose Mark Hammil is relieved to find out he's OK.

I'm sure Hayden Christienson is relieved that he didn't kill his father.

I didn't even see that part, I just kinda skimmed though it.

Would it be bad if I admitted I had to google "Hayden Christeinson" to figure out who he is?

Indeed. We need the boy for a sequel (not prequel). Leia is going to look like hell though.

Well, I got it reversed. Christienson would have been Hamill's father

Well, he did say it's a hoax in the title.
(or was that an edit?)

that was an edit, and if he had died this upcoming season of Metalocolypse would have sucked.
