(easter egg) has anyone YET found the Falcon in FC?

Post by The Yosemite Bear »

note the ILM folks swear they have the Melinium Falcon hidden in First Contact SOMEWHERE....

has anyone seen it yet?

yes I know the last time I brought this up on ASVS and on SB it resulted in much frame by frame examination and the logic that it's got to be too small for us to see....

Many times I have looked. Many times I have been disapointed.

I've been told its there somewhere, but can just never spot it.

Nah, more Chewis was hungry and mistook the Borg cube and the Fed ships flying around as a drive-through borger-king joint and didn't realize a "battle" was taking place. :wink:

Little did the borg know that Solo had accidentally dropped his stolen "attract muderous snowflakes" beacon while aboard the cube...

I wonder what would be Han's reply to the Borg monologe.

That doesn't look like the MF at all. I don't think that is it, the easter eggs are hard to spot but have never been blurry like that.

Hint:

Take a close look at the CUBE.

The original borg cube was just a bunch of model kits chopped up and glued together.....
I've been asked why I still follow a few of the people I know on Facebook with 'interesting political habits and view points'.

It's so when they comment on or approve of something, I know what pages to block/what not to vote for.

Nah. When the Enterprise got there, it was reported that the Cube had heavy damage and its power grid was fluctuating. What, you didn't think those wussy Federation ships did that, do you? That was a volley of concussion missles ;)

Remember when the Chiss claimed that they fought off enemies that would scare Mara? Well, they were using YT-1300 freighters against those enemies :)

That was probably all the Federation could afford to have him do, Han's services are expensive. :)

You know, it's funny. The latest "big" Versus movie to come out was heavily implied in a single scene from a previous movie. The movie in question being "Predator 2" where we see a glimpse of the Alien skull, which added a level of credibility to the idea of a AvP crossover.

Of course, this is far smaller and shorter gag, but one can always hope. :lol:

Wasn't the rights to do Alien and Predator movies owned by the same company? I don't think that's the case here.
