A wookiee's view

The Internet and "Star Wars" were made for each other, and the guy who played Chewbacca is ruling sci-fi Twitter right now. Chewie, a k a Peter Mayhew, posts behind-the-scenes photos and is generous in his retweets of fans' homages to his tall, hairy character. If AT-ATs made of bacon, cross-stitched craft wookies and general geekiness is your thing, @TheWookieeRoars is for you.
