He didn't do anything to HELP him either!
If Lucas and Spielberg hadn't promoted Ford with the Indy movies, where would he be?
Mark got a bad deal. Twenty years later, and he would have been the blond hearthrob like Pitt- because of SW. Timing was all wrong for him- from his accident, to his type not being popular at the time, and Lucas doing nothing to help him as he did Ford.
And Mark has never critized anyone, nor has he been vindictive considering how he has been treated in the press. He's a decent family man, one wife for 25 years, three good looking kids and good work on Broadway to go with the SW films and the Big Red One.No scandal, no embarassing behavior.
Every actor had done clunkers-real stinkers-even the greats.
Mark is a good guy. How many actors can we say that about?

I agree with you that Hammill is a good guy. Just staying married to the mother of his children is quite an accomplishment in Hollywood. But c'mon, the guy's not a great actor.

Harrison Ford is the only Lucas protege that really took off to a top level career. And did you know that Indiana Jones was first offered to Tom Selleck, who turned it down? If I were Ford, I'd send Selleck a magnum of Dom every Christmas.
