Saw this today, just thought I'd share...Geez, 5 out of 6 uses of the name Hans (Solo), the poster gets it wrong and calls him Han.

I guess 20 million references are wrong.

I had never heard of Hans Solo. The Star Wars character was Han Solo, but I understand now that he had a "distant cousin" named Hans:

and this image and info popped up:

"In this latest edition of Fanboy for the Holidays, I’d like to introduce you to “Hans Solo”. A distant cousin of the Rebel hero, Hans is a Dutch, space-faring smuggler who makes the Aalborg Forest his home. Just like his more famous relative, he too completed the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs, with a 24 oz stein in one hand and his busty Bavarian Fraulein in the other."

I got About 51,800,000 results (0.11 seconds) with Googling "han solo" and it seems all but the aforementioned picture of Hans has "Han Solo" as the character played by Harrison Ford in Star Wars.

Jus' sayin'.

Wynn:)Well, it appears I got it wrong, it is Han Solo. Still, both names were used to refer to the same character in the poster.

It's been many, many years since I saw the film. I saw it in a movie theatre but my date was a bit aggressive about her own little performance. The one and only time I ever got a treat like that in an indoor theatre. Thanks, Donna. Miss you.

I think that the person who added the text to the poster was simply apostrophe-challenged.

Youre correct! I counted 7 missing apostrophes in the poster... as mine... are missing. Theres probably a reason, too.
