8. Another Star Wars Nod (Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom)
Indiana Jones and Star Wars obviously have a very big thing in common in the form of director Steven Spielberg, but he’s not the only thing they have in common. The Indiana Jones franchise contains a number of subtle links to its Star Wars counterpart – most notably in the form of the hieroglyphics with pictures of C-3PO and R2-D2 on them. However, there is another very prominent one.
In 1984’s Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, a restaurant/nightclub in 1930s Shanghai can be seen with the name “Club Obi Wan” – a fun reference to the Star Wars character Obi-Wan Kenobi.
