@Doug4422 Mr. Mayhew has no middle name as far as we know. The "E" is a joke, simply to better match Roger E. Mosley's credit in the original opening.
Hey, can you do one on the Indiana Jones series? Of course there Ford, but then for the others, I say Davies, Sean Connery, and Rae Dae Chwan or whatever that Asian's name is.
I was never around to see either of the original Star Wars films OR Magnum P.I. I'm only 16, but I grew up around references to both Magnum and Vice and landed myself with a box set for Vice and working on the same for Magnum. I've watch all the Star Wars films and played a great deal of the games, and to be truthful; I've never been so interested in anything else :D
@TheReaverOfDarkness i believe all you would need to do to tear a hole in time and space is to contain harrison fords awesomeness and then ignite it. but lets be serious, harrison ford cant be contained
Instead of a jump cut at the very end, a freeze would have been a little more in keeping with the style of the series. That's my suggestion. Regardless, this is brilliant.
Hey, I just thought of something! Tom Sellek was supposed to be Indiana Jones, but was already contracted to do Magnum, P.I., which lead to Ford getting the part of Indy instead. I always wondered why this video just seemed so right, and now I know!
Anyone notice how the words "CBV" are in the corner of screen? I don't know if this was done on purpose to make it look like it's an actual show on a network, or what... but it's an interesting detail.
@skinnyernie Thanks. We worked really hard to match the original opening shot for shot, and we did our own comparison video. See the link in the description.
