How could it be a mistake.. like every kid who saw Star Wars in 77, I revere Hamill. how could taking a fat ass check be a mistake?

Hamill’s mistake is that has always tried to distance himself from Luke Skywalker. He should have embraced it and leverage that fame and resources to his other work.

Returning to Luke Skywalker couldn’t have any negative impact on his career. Outside of his voice work everything else he does is because he is the guy who played Luke.
