Indiana Jones gets my vote. He has a magic whip and Shia Labeouf as his son.

How in the world is this even close. Indiana Jones is afraid of snakes. Take off the skirt you cake eating Mary and man up, they're only snakes.
Hookem Horns nailed it on the head why the only choice is Han Solo.
Leia: I love you.
Han: I know.
At that point you can start playing Hells Bells because the ballgame's over.

Han Solo is the man. Who else could make the Kessel run in under 12 parsecs and got to get busy with a princess.
Before Han, Princess Leia wore her hair in two buns, not one, two.
After Han, slave girl outfit Leia. Nuff said.

Harrison Ford as Han Solo is way cooler and hotter than Indiana Jones. Gotta love that swagger and smirk!

Indiana the whole way. I'll give you the fact that the only good Star Wars movies were the ones Han was in, but the deciding factor for me is imagining them as 60 year old men. Indiana will be a professor, and keep it really cool about all his adventures, but still be tough and no nonsense. But you know what will happen to Han. Leia will dump him after a couple of years because, hey, she's got an empire to run and Han will get drunk and fight with the ambassadors and sneak off to do the wild thing with every emmisaries daughter he can get his hands on. Eventually, he'll end up on some godforsaken planet, being carried along by Chewie, who'll own a bar and Han will get drunk there every night and sidle up to everyone too new to avoid him and bluster on about the "Kessel run in twelve parsecs" and how "he dumped Princess Leia because he doesn't put up with anyone telling him what to do, even if she she does think she's her 'worshipfullness'." "Hic. Buy me a drink?"

"Hic. Buy me a drink?" Just a question to you. Have you ever read the Star Wars books? That's almost the opposite of what happened to Han. He married Leia, had three Jedi children, worked to save the galaxy. He's a hero. |

Just a question to you. Have you ever read the Star Wars books? That's almost the opposite of what happened to Han. He married Leia, had three Jedi children, worked to save the galaxy. He's a hero. No, never read the books. I'm basing my reaction on his character in the movies, and the observation that, in real life anyway, people rarely radically change their personalities. He's just so effective as the charming rogue and so obviously pleased with himself about it, that I can't picture him giving that up, or confining it to one woman. But, what the heck, it's only a movie. I have a bad habit of over-literalism when it comes to imagining characters. It's why I think the idea that Kate and Jack could ever be a couple back in the "real world" is absurd. Kate has spent her life on the run, killed people, kneecapped people, robbed banks and who knows what else. I could see her settling down, but what exactly would she have in common with Jack? On the island, they have the island and the people there and the survival thing. But on the mainland, what exactly would they talk about after they had exhausted all island related issues? Great sex can only keep a relationship going for so long. |

Your over-literalism is good though. I agree completely about Jack and Kate. You take what you have and predict the future of the character. I like that. The only problem comes when there's more material after the movies/TV show end. That's just how I see it though.
