Star Wars?


Why was the ending like Star Wars? When Clint was flying in the firefox some dude said "Think in russian, you must think in russian" and like in Star Wars, Obiwan Kenobi said "Use the force luke!" and there are a few other bits like it too.

Speaking about Star Wars, the actor Kenneth Colley who played Captain(but Vader promotes him to Admiral) Piett from Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi is in this Firefox movie as Russian Colonel Kontarsky.

Another SW connection is John Ratzenberg's cameo. He also was in The Empire Strikes Back.

reply

There are also Indiana Jones actors in this too.

Some dude? Eastwood is talking to himself.

The screenwriter or director probably just stole that bit from Star Wars.

If I recall correctly, Gant was recovering from an flashback episode after losing control of the airplane. He was a bit mixed up and forgot to think in Russian, then he remembered it, and this was just a way to let us know what was thinking in his head.

I always thought Kenobi was telling Luke what to do in the moment, that Luke wasn't remembering. Luke looks around in his cockpit like someone is talking to him. Gant was just remembering.

And yeah, it was great to see Kenneth Colley in a much bigger role.

Not really except that part when he hears,

“Use the force Callahan”.

You got the wrong board. This board is for Firefox.
