It is an amazing feat for a person to be in one iconic, genre-changing movie in his lifetime. But to be in three? Harrison Ford, I salute you.
My new post for Slackerheroes.com. In which I gush about Harrison Ford for a bit. Read it here: Harrison Ford, I salute you…
What is YOUR favorite of his roles?

/ May 12, 2012EVERYTHING. I had the biggest crush on him growing up. Ironically, I am now married to an Indiana Jones. I really liked him in Morning Glory and Cowboys & Aliens as far as recent movies.

/ May 13, 2012Indiana Jones and The Fugitive are my favourites. Didn’t like him in Morning Glory at all.

/ May 13, 2012Indiana Jones was not only my first crush, but inspired me to want to study ancient history and archaeology. Great stuff as always, Ellie!

/ May 15, 2012Saw the funniest sign in Madison that read “It’s Dangerous to Fly Solo, Take a Wookie With You!” It had Han Solo as the main image and in place where phone number tabs were, there were pictures of Chewbacca. LOL

/ May 17, 2012Check out his early (first?) role in George Lucas’ American Graffiti. It got him the Han Solo part. Great true story in which a movie producer didn’t think Ford had star quality. He showed Ford a clip from a film in which a young Tony Curtis played a grocery store bag boy. He told Ford: “You just look at that guy and think ‘Movie Star!’” Ford (who is clearly an actor’s actor) replied: “I thought you were supposed to think: ‘bag boy.’”

/ May 17, 2012My favorite Ford role is Rick Deckard in Blade Runner. I can’t believe the Ender movie is finally going to make it! I love that book. I’ve read it several times.
