... Harrison Ford isn't really an actor he only became famous because he was a carpenter on the set of STARWARS and was asked to help with the auditioning and run through some lines with Mark Hamil

Ford acted in American Graffiti before Star Wars.
Looked it up on IMDB, he acted in 12 movies before Star Wars.
Sorry, you got bad info.

You're both right. Ford did work on other films before ANH, but he was working as a carpenter in addition to acting. Someone on the ANH production crew asked him to read lines with the actors trying out for the 3 leads, but George liked him so much he decided to cast him as Han instead of any of the people he was reading with.

Are you down with the fluffy quickness?
1337: n. 1. Nestled between 1336 and 1338, 1337 is commonly known as a number, or for the more advanced; an "integer"
2. Often misused to satisfy a laymen's ego, the self-proclaimed 1337 will misuse the title, pretending to hold "Xtr3m H4x0r" capabilties while in fact anonymously hassling n00b's with better things to do than play mindrot such as Everquest and Warcraft. |
