Honestly, at this point they'd be better off recasting Indy so they can go back and do stories in the 30s (or earlier, like the Young Indy series did). Sure, people would complain that it's not Harrison Ford (see also Solo), but the alternative is that people are going to complain about how old he is and how bad the movie is, so it's pretty much a no-win scenario regardless. Maybe they can finally do that after this film. It was stupid anyway that the franchise was basically fallow so many years. ParanoidObsessive posted... If Hollywood wasn't so obsessed with cannibalizing and corpse-fucking every successful franchise of the past, I'd say they'd almost be better off letting the brand name die entirely and just tell similar stories with different characters (I may be one of like 3 people on Earth who would have been absolutely fine if they'd eventually segued to Mutt being the new lead, but I mean more along the lines of how Tomb Raider and Uncharted are basically channeling the spirit of Indy without having to explicitly BE Indy). If they had picked a better choice for Mutt -- and done something less on the nose than "Mutt" -- that might've been a good plan. However, they dropped the ball in every regard. ParanoidObsessive posted... That's the entire point of trailers. To manipulate scenes in ways that make even shit movies look good. But Crystal Skull's trailer looked like shit and the film was pretty much that. DeathMagnetic80 posted... One last adventure to send the character off on a higher note than 4 did would be nice. Yeah, that's the other major saving grace, considering Crystal Skull was pretty garbo. --- Everybody's got a price / Everybody's got to pay / Because the Million Drachma Man / Always gets his way.
