why does mark hamill look so different from a new hope to the empire strikes back? he looks like hes a lot older or something, even though the movies are only 3 years apart...

I actually have an explanation for that! In January of 1977, Mark Hamill got into a pretty bad car accident. It wasn’t widely publicized because it was after they filmed A New Hope but before it came out, so no one knew who he was. He messed up his nose and cheek pretty badly, to the point where he had to have cartilage taken from his ear to reconstruct parts of his nose and cheek. It’s also rumored to be why Lucas wrote in Luke getting mauled by a wampa in the beginning of Empire Strikes Back, to make an excuse as to why he looked different.
