Why is it that Mark Hamill/Luke Skywalker, a believer in The Force, had a terrible movie career after 'Star Wars' while the skeptic Harrison Ford/Hans Solo, had one of the most successful movie careers ever?
What conclusion can we logically draw from this?

The carbonite Hans/Harrison was frozen in imparted some sort of magical power on him?

Hmmm - that is one angle that I have failed to consider.
BTW, Spud Vader is soooo cute!

That Harrison Ford is a better actor, or better businessman, than Mark Hamill.

Luke Skywalker was one of the least interesting and charismatic characters in Star Wars.
Harrison Ford went on to become Indiana Jones, a much more interesting character than the one-dimensional Han Solo.
I think Hamill may have had other problems too.

Logically Swami, we can conclude that this was a movie and those people were actors.

What Ice said, and,
I saw an interview done with him after he finished filming for the Star Wars series. He told the interviewer that his plan was to take his money and go live a quiet life somewhere away from the lime light for a while, to raise a family. That's what he did.
Funny one on Harrison Ford. My husband worked for a tour boat company on Kauai years back and Harrison Ford had booked a tour down the Napali coast with his entourage. When they showed up for check in, and were asked to pay, he refused carrying on with the, " Do you know who I am?" stuff, saying he doesn't have to pay for such things. They told him he did have to pay like everyone else. He in left in a snit. Some of his entourage stayed back, paid their own way and went anyway.
Big machismo Hollywood hero acts like a little whiny spoiled prima donna snot in real life.  I used to think he was cool until that happened. That story ran around the island fast and he became a laughing stock.
I agree that Mark Hamil is a lousy actor. He got a lucky break young in life being cast for that part though.
