“Han Solo, P.I” is the creation of YouTube user TheCBVee. The video is a mashup of Star Wars and the 1980′s TV show Magnum, P.I. starring Tom Selleck.  Oh, internet you never cease to amaze me.

The Star Wars spoof  is a painstaking shot for shot re-imagining of the original Magnum, P.I. intro sequence, as you can see from this side by side comparison. The irony is that Tom Selleck was Steven Spielberg and George Lucas’s first choice to play Indiana Jones in Raiders of the Lost Ark, and not Harrison Ford.
