    Has anyone noticed that in Men in Black (number 1) that K mentions corellian battleships and that the baby alien that was born in the backseat of the car when the alien family was trying to get out of New York loks like one of Kit Fistos decsendants?

    Yeah the thing about the alien baby being a Kit Fitso look alike was discussed waaay back in the day when AotC was in theatres.

    Hmmm. I never noticed the mention of corellian battleships.

    I can just imagine the canon debates comin outta that one... :p ;)

    All the links in Mib1 and 2:

    Men In Black:
    1. Agent K (Jones) talks about using the, '...Corellian Death Ray'
    2. '...there'll always be some Battle Cruiser, Corellian Plague,...'
    3. Zed (Torn) is pointing out to J (Smith) all of the celebrities that are aliens...one of them is George Lucas sitting in his office writing (see for picture the link below).
    4. The alien looking like Kit Fisto.

    Men In Black II
    1. The worm-things sound like they're speaking a bit of Huttese.
    2. Jeff looks a bit like the Sarlacc with his mouth open.
    3. In the background, you can see an alien that looks like a Gran, another that looks like a Rodian crossed with a Gungan, and hear a Wookiee yell.
    4. Kay, "... get you on that transport, Princess."
    5. Jay, "Lara, it is your destiny."
    6. Agent K says, "There's always an Arquillan Battle Cruiser, or a Corellian Death Ray..."

    I'm pretty sure it wasn't corellian, but actually spelled "Korlian", in the written script.
