 Posted: Fri Apr 15, 2011 2:09 pm Post subject: An interesting/funny thought |
 |
|
today while talking to my friends, who also do RP, we got to talking about Harrison Ford, and the characters he has played.
Suddenly one of my friends says, "But what if 'Indiana Jones' was actually a distant forefather of 'Han Solo', which we all thought was quite funny.
But now that I thought a bit more about it, who is to say that it wasnt actually so, what if Corellia was in fact what Earth gets named after several millenia ?
I thought it was an entertaining thought, anyways

If he were a distant ancestor, it's good for a laugh. If you're looking for something to actually build a crossover out of, then he would need to be Han's long lost twin with the scholarly bent specializing in archaeology.

As long as we don't need Han as an ancestor of Bob Falfa.  |

It's breach in the space time continuum! Or maybe the film is a message from the future.

Or maybe space is actually so curved that it actually bent back on itself?

No but I thought that if they made a another Indiana Jones movie (or Mutt Williams movie) it could take place three years later in 1962 and they could reference Indy's cousin's kid Bob Falfa. Or maybe they could have Mutt or Indy travelling in Modesto, California and Bob Falfa drives past him on the street (using footage from American Graffiti), making Mutt do a double take.
But I think that Indy saying "I have a bad feeling about this" in the last Indy film was enough reference to Han Solo/Star Wars.

And Mutt could watch Star Wars in a theater and be shocked at his father's resemblance to Han Solo....

Of course he'd be one of the few 40 yr olds in the audience. |

There is actually a comic book where Indiana Jones find the remains of Han Solo and Chewbacca put out by Dark Horse in their Star Wars Tales comic.
