Couldn't they just CGI him in, and have him dub his lines from the comfort of his Acorn Stairlift?

The main take-away from all of this is that Harrison Ford would rather kill himself than be in another Star Wars film. Especially one without Whitey.

Harrison Ford has been injured on the set of Disney and LucasFilm’s new “Star Wars” movie.

According to Disney, the 71 year-old actor was hospitalized after sustaining a bad ankle injury during filming on Wednesday.

“He was taken to a local hospital and is receiving care,” the statement reads.

Ford was at Pinewood studios in England when a hydraulic door reportedly fell down and hit him, possibly fracturing his ankle.

He was airlifted to a hospital shortly after the incident.

The J.J. Abrams-directed “Star Wars: Episode VII,” co-starring Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill, will continue shooting at Pinewood Studios while ‘Han Solo’ gets treatment.

The new “Star Wars” movie also stars newcomers John Boyega, Oscar Isaac and Adam Driver and hits theaters December 18, 2015.
We airlift people for fractured ankles?
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Rumor is Mark Hamill had the same injury last week. They made him walk back to town to get it looked at.

This is why they shouldn't have wasted time on those prequels, and instead worked on sequels while the original cast weren't so feeble and decrepit.

MASSIVE SPOILERS IF TRUE:

Spoiler: show
About Episode VI ending : Spoiler: People saying it was too neat or that the Empire wouldn't collapse so easily, are in for a treat

Spoiler: There is no New Republic, but the Empire aren't in control either, love if it was a kind of Mad Max scenario and a power vaccuum, people at Pinewood report redesigned stormtrooper outfits, the eyes are thin black strip , some sort of Neo-Imperialists
