The feud between dueling comics movies COWBOYS & ALIENS and THE SMURFS erupted in violence last night when COWBOYS star Harrison Ford ripped the head off a stuffed Papa Smurf handed to him my late night chat host Conan O’Brien.
Ford’s rage may have been misplaced, as COWBOYS & ALIENS eventually edged SMURFS at the box office by a million buckaroonies or so.
If nothing else, the incident set up a dandy idea for a sequel: COWBOYS VS LITTLE BLUE PEOPLE.
I dunno. Seems like he was agitated to begin with. Something doesn’t add up.
to be fair he thought it was George Lucas.
Would’ve been way more entertaining if Papa Smurf ripped the head off of Harrison Ford.
Harrison Ford is almost ALWAYS agitated in interviews and on talk shows. While he’ll play along, he’s admitted many times that he just does these things because it’s a job. It seems like it’s getting harder and harder for him to hide that he’d rather be somewhere else.
Cowboys & Aliens is worth seeing alone for his performance — a really great character that he does a lot with.
