A new- or at least another- Big 3 for Sci-Fi @furiousfanboys #starwars

I often talk about the Big 3 of the Golden Age of Science Fiction; Robert Heinlein, Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke.

But these days, if someone in the sci-fi blogosphere mentions "the Big 3," chances are they are talking about a different set of people.  Furious Fanboys reports today that Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford are expected to get back to the old grindstone and start work on Star Wars Episode VII in March or April, and refers to these stars of the franchise as  the Big 3.  It's a pretty short post but you can find it at the Furious Fanboys site.

Furious Fanboys is a particular favorite site of mine, not the least because I contributed some posts back in the summer of 2011, mostly about the 69th annual World Science Fiction Convention that took place in Reno, Nevada, in August.  If you go to the site and search "Reno," I think you can find most of my posts, except the one on Cowboys and Aliens... search "cowboy" for that one.
