Of course he is! He’s named after one!

One of those throwaway lines that still make me grin.

BTW, the character was really named after George Lucas' dog. So the line was kind of fourth wall breaking.

Chewie also got his name from one of his dogs.

Dang I really thought the title of this game was Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Won't Let Indy Shoot Dogs for a hot minute I need to get some more coffee

I hate it when they force me to shoot them

I always wondered how much IGN is commissioned to write these nonsense articles for promotion.
