Hi All! Here is some trivia I found recently don't know how much has been covered before. Sorry for any repeat info.

In Raiders the giant Sherpa that is choking Indy is the same actor who played the German mechanic who has the *close encounter* with the flying wings propellar,Pat Roach.

In Last Crusade 'Fedora' was originally going to be Abner Ravenwood!

Speaking of Indy and James Bond
Last Crusade had
1 Bond (Sean Connery)
1 Bond Ally (John Rhys-Davies)
1 Bond Girl (Alison Doody)
2 Bond Commanding Officers (Micheal Byrne and Billy J. Mitchell)
1 Bond nightclub owner (Vernon Dobtcheff)
3 Bond villians (Julian Glover, Stefan Kalipha, & Pat Roach)

And finally Harrison Ford said there was only one problem with Sean Connery playing his father... namely Sean is only 12 years older than Harrison and therefore a little young to be his father.

Speaking of Harrison and Sean a few years back when Harrison won a big award (cant remember what exactly it was any ideas anyone??)
Sean took out a full page add in Variety to congratulate him. It read simply: Junior,
Congratulations
Love Dad
