eBay has an auction that offers lunch with Harrison Ford. Procedes of the auction go to the E.O. Wilson Biodiversity Foundation, of which Ford is a board member. At the time of this writing the bid was at: $2,650.00.

heh, i guess he would expect to be bothered with tons of BR-related questions during the lunch :lol:

Now up to $3750. I wonder how he would respond to questions about BR? It would be interesting to know if he had been interviewed for a special feature on the BRSE.

When I talked to Syd Mead about it he said that "Harry Ford was also being interviewed"...I also heard it mentioned by someone else that was interviwed that HF was already done with his interview and has supposedly changed his stance on the movie as well as his relationship with Ridley.

Man, that's some good news. Doesn't really suprise me, though. I kinda expected Ford to include himself in the extras on this release.
I had heard that he was finally starting to come to terms with BR at this point in his career.

Ridley also made a kind of public apology on one of the BR documentaries(can't remember if it was the Edge of Blade Runner or the canadian one). He said he was not fair to HF and did not know how to work with him, and that it was his fault. Harrison may have seen it and loosened up as a result. Either way I can not wait. :D

I could see spending a few grand on that, but not until I get an answer to one question:







WHO pays for the meal? :P

It'll probably go to someone who wants more to talk to/about Han Solo, not as much to Rick Deckard. (Not that that's bad, but...)

wow, the auction ended at $13,000. there's probably a hidden clause somewhere in the contract in which the person can't ask harrison ford certain things. however, we'll probably never know what he has to say personally about blade runner or the upcoming dvd.
