The 50 Day Movie Challenge asks one question every day, to be answered by a few paragraphs and a clip, if possible. Click here for the full list of questions.
Today’s prompt: Who is your biggest movie character crush?
Okay, so, characters in movies, not actors. This pretty much came down to two – Han Solo or Indiana Jones. Battle of the Harrison Fords! But I really didn’t even have to think about that very long. Han Solo is awesome, but Indy is both a rugged adventurer AND a university professor. And that combination is GOLD for me.
And…that’s about all I need to say. :) There aren’t very many good clips on YouTube, so here’s the original theatrical trailer. It cracks me up how every ’80s trailer makes the movie look cheesy, even if it isn’t.

I had a crush on Han Solo even before I had a crush on any guy I knew in real life. When I saw Raiders a few years later, I loved Indy too. In other words, I completely approve of this post.

It’s really pretty hard to argue with crushing on Han Solo and Indiana Jones, I think. I mean, how could you not? Oh, young Harrison Ford. <3
