The only actor to appear in all six "Star Wars" films is British thespian, Anthony Daniels, who plays the droid C-3PO ...human-cyborg relations. Due to the golden armor/suit he wears, most people (outside of nerds like me who actually see these folks at conventions and the like) don't know what the man himself looks like...but anyone who has seen a "Star Wars" film certainly knows the distinctive, "stuffy British manservant" vocal stylings he brings to the character.
The veteran actor took to Twitter last evening to share his thoughts on "Episode VII," which just completed shooting. Check out his tweet below:
"No movie sequel is better than The Empire Strikes Back." You might eat those words for Xmas dinner in 2015. Joy & Indigestion to the world!

That right there is a bold statement as most (including myself) consider "Empire" the best of the six "Star Wars" films. Since Daniels has been in all the films so far, I'd be willing to trust his judgment over almost anyone else's. That being said, I myself, and most fans as well, are expecting a good deal more from this new trilogy, especially after the three-film-long train wreck that was George Lucas' terribly inconsistent prequel trilogy.
Stay tuned to HNGN for more news on Star Wars: Episode VII" as it develops.
