Carrie Fisher (1956-2016) was an American actress and writer. She will forever be known for her role as Princess Leia in the Star Wars movies. Carrie Fisher’s IMDb page shows 90 acting credits from 1969-2017. This page will rank 29 Carrie Fisher movies from Best to Worst in six different sortable columns of information. Television shows, shorts, video games and movies that were not released in North American theaters were not included in the rankings. To do well in our overall rankings a movie has to do well at the box office, get good reviews by critics, be liked by audiences and get some award recognition.
Drivel part of the page: When Ray “Scarecrow” Bolger passed away in 1987….I remember my grandmother being sad about his passing….and how that meant that all the main actors from 1939’s The Wizard of Oz (one of her two favorite movies) were no longer with us. At the time I did not really understand why she was sad. As I have gotten older….I now understand what she was feeling. To me 1977’s Star Wars is the movie I am emotional attached to like my grandmother was attached to The Wizard of Oz. So far…knock on wood….almost all the Star Wars main actors, with a few exceptions (RIP Alec Guinness, Peter Cushings & Kenny Baker) are still with us.
Well as I type these words….Carrie Fisher is in intensive care after suffering a massive heart attack while flying from London to Los Angeles. This is now two years in a row that a Star Wars alumni has had an issue with a plane (Harrison Ford’s plane crash was in 2015). Both times the news has hit me hard….as it feels almost like a family member is in harm’s way. Hoping…like with the news with Harrison….that we get good news in the upcoming hours and days. May the force be with you Princess Leia. And Mr. Hamill…you might want to stay away from planes in 2017. 12/24/16
