No-one talks like that

[Verdex]

Maybe you guys can help me:

 

I need a quote from Harrsion Ford talking to George Lucas after having read the New Hope script. I remember vaquely that he is said to have told Lucas: "George, no-one talks like that." - and altered some of his lines I am looking for that story and maybe a link to it.

 

Anyone?

Ford also found the dialogue difficult, saying "You can type this shit, George, but you sure can't say it." HarrisonFordWeb.com

 

From A New Hope on Wikipedia

So it's once again time for my all time favorite quote from Montgomery C. Burns:

 

"Excellent!"

 

Thanks a lot!

I have heard the qoute your are talking about on the History Channel's special on Star Wars which walks through the early years of George Lucas and his film school projects, the subsequent development of THX 1138, then "American Graffiti", and followed up by "Star Wars" in which Harrison Ford was not originally intended for the role of Han Solo but was brought in as an audition director helping other auditioners read the lines in the manner that Lucas was wanting. There were also black and white clips of actress Sally Field (Smokey and Bandit) auditioning as Leia, and clips of Kurt Russel (O'Neil in Stargate movie) auditioning as Han Solo.

Yes, indeed! It was called "Empire of Dreams". Gotta watch it again, it was very interesting.

Kurt Russel as Han? That would be interesting (definetly a good choice I think)

[Eagle]

Yes, and there´s another scene with Perry King (Riptide) as Han.

Empire of Dreams is the fourth, extra DVD in the Star Wars DVD box-set that was released three years ago.
