Solo: A Star Wars Story - 17 WTF Moments

9. A Crystal Skull?!

Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull Harrison Ford

Of all the tributes a Star Wars movie could have dropped in for George Lucas and Harrison Ford, there can't have been many people who would have predicted that we'd get to see a Crystal Skull from the worst Indiana Jones movie popping up.

But that's exactly what happens as Dryden Vos' "trophies", which also include a Mandalorian nod as part of the film's agenda to fan-bait as much as possible, have the immediately dicernible sight of a Crystal Skull amongst them.

Given how poorly that film went down with fans, it feels like little more than George Lucas-aimed sycophancy, to be quite frank.
