Favorite Film
Star Wars: A New Hope. However, bonus points go to Empire of Dreams (found on the 2004 DVD boxset).
Favorite Character
Han Solo. Really, Harrison Ford in any movie he's in, but especially as Han Solo.
Favorite Scene
The very subtle head-tilt from Luke Skywalker when he says "I am a Jedi, like my father before me."
