Genius Star Wars Theory Reveals How The Galaxy Far, Far Away Is Connected To Indiana Jones

Star Wars and Indiana Jones They are two of the most famous film franchises created by George Lucas, and a surprising theory explains how their stories might be connected. Tired star wars' Troubled production and concerned that the film would fail, Lucas went on vacation to Hawaii with his friend and fellow director Steven Spielberg instead of attending the premiere. While there, Lucas came up with his idea for what would eventually become Indiana Jones and the first film. Raiders of the Lost Arkhe was released four years later in 1981.

With the same incredible filmmaking and love for adventure series Star Wars original trilogy, despite the different genres, it's easy to understand the fan overlap between both franchises. Of course, there were times Star Wars is referred to Indiana Jones and vice versa, but a world-renowned archaeologist may have a more direct connection to a galaxy far, far away (apart from co-starring, of course). Looking at similar terminology Star Wars TV shows and Indiana Jones such a connection seems possible in the movies.

Star Wars has previously teased its Indiana Jones connections

As well as connections with the Earth

Although it has never been definitively confirmed Star Wars and Indiana Jones takes place in the same universe, with fun banter over the years. In Raiders of the Lost ArkThe hieroglyphic representation of R2-D2 and C-3PO can be seen when Indiana Jones finds the chest of the Covenant. most importantly, Star Wars Tales #19 includes the non-canon story “The Great Unknown” by W. Haden Blackman and Sean Murphy. After accidentally traveling to Earth at the speed of light, Han Solo is killed by Native Americans and his body is discovered hundreds of years later by Indiana Jones.

Another Steven Spielberg film also teased the relationship between a galaxy far, far away and Earth. While pretending to be a human child to trick or treat ET Extraterrestrial, ET sees a boy dressed as Yoda and tries to walk up to him as if he recognizes his species. George Lucas doubled down on this joke Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace With ET species appearing in the Republican Senate. These examples were just fun Easter eggs, but demonstrate the underlying attraction to the relationship Star Wars and stories that take place on earth.

Indiana Jones 4 introduced Aliens

Or “Interdimensional Beings”

The first three Indiana Jones The films focus on works related to religion and the supernatural, however Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull decided to introduce science fiction elements. The crystal skull the Russians were looking for turned out to be the real skull of an alien who came to Earth in ancient times, and the people who worshiped them built a temple around their spaceship. Since the original Indiana Jones films were inspired by 1930s adventure serials, George Lucas thought the sequel should be inspired by 1950s science fiction B-movies.

And it turned into fun Star Wars An easter egg connecting Lucas' franchises. In Star Wars: The Clone Wars season 3, episode 22 “Wookiee Hunt,” A crystal skull can be found among the many slain creatures in the trophy room of the Trandoshan hunters.. Although this may not appear to be anything more than a reference, it can also be taken as evidence of it Indiana Jones'foreigners actually came from' Star Wars galaxy. The future Star Wars stories would also provide the perfect means to turn this into a formal relationship.

The aliens of Indiana Jones went to “Interspace”.

What did Oxley mean by that?

Rather than calling “spacemen”aliens Indiana Jones labeled as “Interdimensional Beings.” Harold Oxley claims that instead of going into space, they went “space between spaces” although he does not explain what this means. In interviews and behind-the-scenes material, Steven Spielberg implied that this terminology was meant to keep the aliens from being too sci-fi. Indiana Jones. Nevertheless, it inadvertently created an interesting connection Star Wars TV shows released after Disney bought the franchise.

Star Wars introduced “A World Between Worlds.”

Very similar name and concept

Star Wars Rebels Season 4 introduced what Ahsoka Tano called “The World Between Worlds” and connected important moments through the Force. It was a realm that seemed to exist outside of space and time, and it contained several portals that someone within the World Between Worlds could pass through. Ezra Bridger saved Ahsoka's life by pulling her into the Worlds Between Worlds before Darth Vader could kill her. Ahsoka found herself in the World Between Worlds Ahsoka season 1where he was reunited with the spirit of his old master, Anakin Skywalker.

Perhaps the crystal skull aliens created the Interworld/Interspace to explore different times and places in the universe, as Indiana Jones mentions archaeologists like him.

Since he only appeared in a few episodes Star Wars franchise, Little is known about the origin of the World Between Worlds. However, the roads and portals hint and comment that it is man-made “space between spaces” and “portal, way to another dimension” in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull can reveal architects. Perhaps the crystal skull aliens created the Interworld/Interspace to explore different times and places in the universe, as Indiana Jones mentions archaeologists like him.

Can the World Between Worlds unite the Two Galaxies?

It already connects the dots between space and time

This theory is based on the ability of the “World Between” to connect two galaxies, even as one. “far away” Like the Milky Way. However, given that Ahsoka Season 1 confirmed that the Force exists in other galaxies, which makes sense that the World Between Worlds can be accessed at any time and place. Along with more reliable Indiana Jones Like the crystal skull seen in Easter eggs The Clone WarsiIt seems plausible that these interdimensional beings could travel from Earth to Earth Star Wars galaxy.

Indeed, it is unlikely that Lucasfilm will approve a canon story that definitively connects these two universes. while Ahsoka Characters may return in season 2 Star Wars Interworlds Traveling through the world, the origin of the galaxy will likely remain a mystery. IIt would also make sense to connect the World Between Worlds to the Force gods of Mortisfor their statues are seen at Peridea. Either way, the idea of ​​a World Between Worlds is a transition Star Wars and Indiana Jones it's an amazing opportunity.
