love how she brings her dog everywhere

I'll give John Boyega his due, normally I can spot a phony American accent the minute I hear it and yet, hearing Boyega speaking naturally in a British accent threw me completely off guard. His American was flawless in the Force Awakens, it was like he had been raised here.

Imagine if Star Wars was made with all Welsh accents. You'd probably still need subtitles for the parts in English.

Man. I seriously have a crush on Daisy. Hasn't happened to me since middle school. If she talked to me in person I'd probably turn red and run off.

"Isn't it beautiful? You can see it in all my work." RIP Carrie, way more than an iconic and irreplazable Star Wars character, an intelligent, well-spoken, sharp-tongue comedian able to make fun of herself and an true role model.

Carrie Fisher was a god send, we didn't deserve her. RIP Carrie

Not only did Carrie Fisher sound British in that scene but when she said the line “ The more you tighten your grip Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers “ she reminded me of a young Julie Andrews.

Seriously? No one gonna mention that dog sitting there with its tongue hanging out?

[imawesome]

Boyega is a national treasure, his career is only just starting

[TheFabioOrchedella]

My love for John increases every time he talks in his british accent 😍

[RavenclawStudent]

So miraculously Carrie becomes British when she's upset. Lol

[jazzedaboutcheese]

God, I love John Boyega. He looks like a great lovely guy to hang out with. So funny.

"The only time I received direction from George"

He must have taken a similar approach in the prequels.

[immaculateboy]

Eddie Izzard has a hilarious sketch where he gives Darth Vader a cockney accent. It's hilarious.
