ocelot 508 Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Do you guys think Harrison Ford is too old for Indy 4? Will he be able to pull off another one? Can he still act without looking glazed and confused all the time? Does he still posess a spark? Can he still use a whip? Should it be about his son, played by Colin Farrell, taking over? (OK that last part was wishful thinking on my part, but if there is a person to take over, I can't think of a better person)Anyway, I would love to hear what anyone thinks about this. I personally would love another Indy, however I don't know if he is too old for it or not now. Hopefully he can pull it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 There is a little something called "suspention of disbelief" which will make Ford in Indy 4 seem very plausible.I have no question what so ever that they will pull it of FOR ME.Just as i totally believed Indy could outspeed a rolling boulder, a pit full of snakes, bring a mine car to a complete halt with his shoes...etc...etc...Stefancos- who WILL believe.

ocelot 508 Posted July 22, 2002 Author Share Posted July 22, 2002 Brendan Frasier? I don't think he has the look or the wit. He has wit, but it's more silly rather than sexy.

UCFKevin 0 Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Not just no, but HELL no. I defy ANY of you to look THAT good when you're 60. The man is in incredible shape, and I have no doubt that he will kick a mighty amount of ass in Indy IV, maybe not as hard or fast as the previous movies, but it'll still work.

Trumpeteer 302 Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 I thought the screenplay was taking Ford's age into account, i.e. they were going to make Indy in his 50s or 60s.So if that is the case, then NO!I'm with Ricard on this. Suspension of disbelief is the key to enjoying a movie like the Indiana Jones films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricard 2,242 Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 Nowadays, 60 years old is not too old. The problem is, in my opinion, that Harrison Ford doesn't look very good at his age. But I'm (almost) sure they'll fix that little problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Potter 0 Posted July 22, 2002 Share Posted July 22, 2002 NO!!!!! He's NEVER too old to play Indy. So he's aged since the last one, but what does that matter? This time, the stunt man may actually get to do something!~Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocelot 508 Posted July 22, 2002 Author Share Posted July 22, 2002 Yes, he does look good sometimes, but then I see him in interviews and the partying is definitely catching up to him and he is almost slurring and glazed...

Romão 2,274 Posted July 23, 2002 Share Posted July 23, 2002 What's wrong with a new indy movie, Melange?If it sucks, the trilogy will still be great. If it as good, will have a great trilogy plus a great movie. What is there to lose? You have the chance of having another Williams classic score and another classic movie. Things may not turn out that way, but is there to lose? No matter how bad (or good) this new movie will be, the first 3 movies will always be as great as they always were.

Director 1 Posted July 24, 2002 Share Posted July 24, 2002 C'mon, guys. How can you doubt Spielberg, Darabont, and Ford?(I would include Lucas in there, but you all have shown that you can doubt him very easily, so what's the point.)Indy IV will be set in the 50s to accomodate Ford's age. He won't be playing a 60 year old, so don't worry about it. Just have faith.Director - offering peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeinAR 1,949 Posted July 25, 2002 Share Posted July 25, 2002 Ford recently gave an interview where he stated he would NOT have a son.That is good news indeed.Here is a list of things 10 things, I think are needed to make a great Indiana Jones 3rd sequel. A JW score is a given.1. The Paramount Mountain/mountain dissolve. Sets the tone.2. Breathtaking opening sequence.3. Indy, Henry, Willie(cameo), Marion(cameo), new woman, Salah, and a great central villian, secondary villians(neo-nazi's perhaps). Don't overload the number of characters.4. Creep out sequence. Spiders, bugs, insects, snakes, rats, bats? not to be confused with the next category.5. Gross out sequence. Spielberg has a wierd facination with gore and he loves to showcase a gory sequence in these films.6. Stunts and action. Spielberg is the master of this. He makes Woo look like the amatuer he is, only Cameron can be compared.7. Some humor, but not over the top humor like LC. Pull it back.8. One film defining action set piece, Raider's desert chase, TOD, the mine car sequence, LC, stee beast.9. Out of the world mystical revelation10. Slam bang ending that pleases the crowd.
