i agree about the holiday special's mind-meltingness. whooa.

It's really a crime they didn't make a Holiday Special for each movie. REVENGE OF THE SITH HOLIDAY SPECIAL! With Hayden Christiansen! Ewan McGregor! Samuel L. Jackson! Amerie! Jerry Stiller! The cast of According To Jim! And the Killers!

"You're gonna die here, you know. It's convenient"

I feel like I'm short shifting Indy here but seriously, evil Indy in the Temple of Doom=not good.

You strange, strange man who remembers every single thing about the SW universe.

We each have our mental scarring about something. (To be honest I didn't remember who the hell it was until someone else pointed it out to me a few years back.)

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 26 May 2005 02:59 (eighteen years ago) link

was his henry regarding in regarding henry?

s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 26 May 2005 02:59 (eighteen years ago) link

Seriously also the look on his face when it is revealed in this, "OMG WTF DUH!!!" way that Luke and Leia are related, that is like Mastercard style priceless.

Mosquito Coast jerk hippie with his son who turns out to be his YOUNGER SELF in Indy 3 vs. Presumed Innocent's "This is a trial about something or other because I fucked around a bit. Mm, garden tools."

(And Slocki, get on that link I posted on the Cinderella Man thread ASAP. I must know your reaction.)

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 26 May 2005 03:01 (eighteen years ago) link

presumed innocent's great!

The Phantom Menace Holiday Special with Jake Lloyd, Natalie Portman, Liam Neeson, David Schwimmer, Christina Aguilera, Jay Leno, and Sugar Ray would have had sooooo much Jar Jar in it. We'd have met the family!

miccio (miccio), Thursday, 26 May 2005 03:02 (eighteen years ago) link

HELLO PEOPLE WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT ROGUES IN MY THREAD QUESTION.

"Luke? Luke's crazy! He can't even take care of himself, much less rescue anybody. A JEDI KNIGHT? I'm out of it for a little while and everyone gets delusions of grandeur."

xpost miccio, seriously, I'm mail bombing you for the suggestion of a Jar Jar Binks family.

"Sorry for the mess."

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 26 May 2005 03:06 (eighteen years ago) link

"Travelling through hyperspace isn't like dusting crops!"

You forgot that the word "BOY" points the end of that line like a knife aimed at Luke's crotch.

Also, and this really ends the discussion,

"I know."

THat line is so hot, even being thrown into carbonite the dude still got the 'tude.

Sorry for the mess is classic.

No one has pointed out how the best thing Kevin Spacey ever d id was that bizarro skit on SNL where he played Christopher Walken, playing Han Solo.

Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Thursday, 26 May 2005 03:15 (eighteen years ago) link

Though this is the worst thing I've ever seen

Allyzay flies casual (allyzay), Thursday, 26 May 2005 03:18 (eighteen years ago) link

That doesn't make a lick of sense...

Jimmy Mod Knows (ModJ), Thursday, 26 May 2005 03:18 (eighteen years ago) link

Spacey's Walter Matthau as Obi Wan was pretty great too.

haha darrell hammond did richard dreyfuss as c3po too right?

busta rhymes didn't namecheck indiana jones in "woo hah! got you all in check." so it's han solo.

Yeah, great at getting us into trouble...

If I had a menstrual cycle, I think I would vascillate between Han and Indy during different segments of it.

Right now, I'm digging Han.

andrew l. r. (allocryptic), Thursday, 26 May 2005 03:33 (eighteen years ago) link

"High-powered lawyers," eh Eisbar? ;-)

we billed it to the client, too (under "office conference")!

Eisbär (llamasfur), Thursday, 26 May 2005 03:42 (eighteen years ago) link

also raiders has good one liners and what not. third indy movie, not so much.

Elsa: [Kisses Indy] Zat's how Austrians say goodbye.
Colonel Vogel: Und zis is how ve zay goodbye in Germany, Dr. Jones.
[Punches Indy]
Indiana Jones: I liked the Austrian way better.
Professor Henry Jones: So did I.

Professor Henry Jones: They're trying to kill us.
Indiana Jones: I know, Dad.
Professor Henry Jones: This is a new experience for me.
Indiana Jones: It happens to me all the time.

(throws german off Zeppelin) (looks around at crowd) No ticket.

I'm just saying like. It's still Han.

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Thursday, 26 May 2005 04:04 (eighteen years ago) link

Bookish Han all the way. Like YOUR dad wouldn't show you up.

David R. (popshots75`), Thursday, 26 May 2005 04:34 (eighteen years ago) link

Han Solo gets mad points for expressing as much emotion with the line "Don't sweat it, Princess" as Hayden Vader will attempt to express (but fail) in his entire movie career. Indy gets mad points for the scene where he shoots the dude with the sword rather than fight him.

I won the Indiana Jones DVD box set, but NOT the Star Wars DVD box set. I feel that is the asnwer.

Sick Mouthy (Nick Southall), Thursday, 26 May 2005 06:59 (eighteen years ago) link

"I know."

coldest line EVER.

stevie (stevie), Thursday, 26 May 2005 07:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Ford has a particularly great 'Indie' moment in ROTJ when he accidentally steps on the twig in the forest that gives away his sneaking behind the stormtrooper.

also
"..boring conversation anyway"
and
"would it help if I got out and pushed?"
"IT MIGHT!"
also
"WATCH THIS!"
"watch what?"
and
"Maybe you'd like to get back into your *cell* princess"
and
"I love you"
"I know"

I like how Leia returns that last one back at Han in the bunker scene on ROTJ.

haha xpost

Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 26 May 2005 07:52 (eighteen years ago) link

"YES...your highnessness."

It's "your worshipfulness", actually.

Man, I don't know. Han never took his shirt off. Temple of Doom doesn't have much to recommend it, but it does at least have that. Sigh.

Still though, it's Han.
"I don't know, I can imagine quite a bit".

accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Thursday, 26 May 2005 09:49 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh, wait, someone already said that. Sorry Jimmy Mod.

accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Thursday, 26 May 2005 09:50 (eighteen years ago) link

Han wins.

Only because I'm bitter that no history professor would ever look like Harrison Ford.

Roz (Roz), Thursday, 26 May 2005 11:23 (eighteen years ago) link

"YES...your highnessness."

Please to refer to scene in Empire near the start where Leia and Han confront each other in the hallway.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 26 May 2005 11:44 (eighteen years ago) link

Ned,

Please reconstruct said scene in full because I do not remember it. Also because it would amuse me to have you do so. Because I'm bored.

Many thanks,

AM

accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Thursday, 26 May 2005 11:53 (eighteen years ago) link

Ahh.. did it end with...

Leia: "Why you stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy-lookin' nerf herder!"
Han: "Who's scruffy-lookin?"

Roz (Roz), Thursday, 26 May 2005 11:55 (eighteen years ago) link

Hurrah for amusement!

It's the scene right after he says to the one Rebel general at the Hoth base that he has to leave because of the price on his head and then he and Leia talk briefly and he goes, "So long, princess!" and leaves abruptly. Next thing you see is her charging out the door of the control room calling for Han and he stops, turns and says said line, v. diffidently.

I have no problem with 4 through 6 essentially being imprinted in my brain. This is what a childhood obsession is *for*. :-)

Roz -- no, that's the scene later where Luke is recovering in his sickbed and Leia later smooches him.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 26 May 2005 11:57 (eighteen years ago) link

Riiiighht. Damn, I wanna see Empire again. It's my favourite but it's the one I've seen the least number of times because the video (ooh vei, VHS!) got ruined by my older brother.

Roz (Roz), Thursday, 26 May 2005 12:01 (eighteen years ago) link

Ned, I thank you for your commitment to my amusement.

I still do not remember that bit. Hmm. This requires further study. I must dig out my videos (yes, videos) of the pristine original Han-fires-first versions and watch them.

I better watch them all, just in case he says it again. Yes. I think that would prevent any further confusion on my part.

accentmonkey (accentmonkey), Thursday, 26 May 2005 12:03 (eighteen years ago) link

I couldn't even read this whole thread b/c I have to say: that picture of Han is so fucking hot it hurts me. The hair, the belt, the almost-inperceptible smirk! (This is, of course, tied in with longtime crush-from-childhood on Han, much stronger than Indy crush. Han is just, mm, cool.)
