|ZiR| said:No, that is in fact impossible. It's either one or the other.
ONE OR THE OTHER. CHOOSE OR GET OUT.

edit: Am I the only one who think's it's strange that Sean Patrick Flanery got to see a pre-release screening of the film? Seems weird, is all. I wonder how many other Indy alumni got an advance look at KotCS.

Crack that whip said:Well, IIRC, Kevin Smith got to attend a prerelease screening of Star Wars - Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, and he's never been involved with a Star Wars production at all, or even any Lucasfilm ones; he just makes movies of his own with people who talk about Star Wars (and Indiana Jones). If George or the other High Gods of Lucasfilm deemed him worthy of an advance viewing of the movie for that, it certainly doesn't seem out of line for actual Indy alumni to get to see the new Indy even if they weren't personally involved.
(One presumes Kate Capshaw, who isn't in this as far as we non-spoiler types know, nevertheless got to see it in advance as well, but then I think she may have a special "in" with someone on the production...)
Avilos said:While Lucas and Flannery have not worked together in awhile they appear to still be on good terms. Actually with few exceptions, like David Prowse, George Lucas seems to have good relationships with all the actors he has worked with. Even those who don't think he is the greatest director!
I bet all Sean had to do was call George Lucas or Rick McCallum up and ask to see the film.

Crack that whip said:Indeed, it's been pointed out Sean Patrick Flanery is actually older now than Harrison Ford was when he first played Indy in Raiders of the Lost Ark, as hard as that is to believe.
Raiders112390 said:He doesn't look 42 though. He could still pass for 27. I mean, Ford was playing a 39 year old Indy when he was 47.
