ST Harrison Ford Unsure about Episode VII?

As I said you can believe them if you want. I just choose not too. I will wait for a source I trust better like a Hollywood trade site. Before I jump up and down for excitement.

 

This is all awesome and such, but what has me freaking out is the mention of Indiana Jones 5's fate as part of the deal. But I'll go into detail on this in the Indy 5 Still In The Cards? thread...

 

That's great. I'm not jumping to excitement, I'm just taking it with a grain of salt. That's obviously the safest choice.

 

Great news if true. I'd honestly be more excited to see Indy again than Han.

 

No problem with you either way. I'm just taking a caution approach. I'm in a good mood today any ways. My 49ers are crushing the Jaqs.

 

I'm an Eagles fan. Yeah.

 

Sorry about your Eagles today,man. Always next week.

 

After Indy 4? Ugh. I wouldn't mind if we never see the leather jacket and fedora ever again. The only thing I would like about a 5th Indy would be the chance to get rid of the sour taste in my mouth following the last one.

 

Indy is cool - I don't think anyone would disagree, but for many of us older fans Han Solo will always be the man!
I was fully expecting a 20 minute's worth cameo role from Harrison, the idea that Han might appear in the whole trilogy - made my day!

 

Yep, it's true. I went to an action movie directed by Spielberg and had a good time. Crazy old me.

 

I love Indy 4 as much as the other ones. Come at me internet.

I hope this new rumor is true. I was thinking worst case scenario like a lot of others, a script rewrite because Ford backed out.

 

This exactly. Harrison Ford ventures across various exotic locales, rides around on vehicles, survives implausible situations, searches for treasure, and battles nefarious villians, all delivered with the charm, warmth, and tone of the previous Indy movies.

What more can you ask for from an Indiana Jones film? What were people expecting from Crystal Skull that they didn't recieve? I have no idea.

 

Maybe we will get an announcement on the 30th after all.....as for Indy 5 at least it's a chance to redeem themselves .......

 

For the last time, they NEVER claimed the Egyptian themed set was for Star Wars. Their source said there was a set like that at the studio about which SOME PEOPLE believed it was for Star Wars but it obviously wasn't.

 

Fair enough. And this should be the norm anyway.

For what it's worth, it was Hollywood Reporter who was going to break the Benedict Cumberbatch info.

 

Heres a rumor that harrison ford also signed up for mutiple star wars movies, but these are just rumors since he does not like his charcter Han Solo. http://comicbook.com/blog/2013/10/2...-to-have-signed-multi-picture-star-wars-deal/

 

I liked it a lot! Maybe tied with Last Crusade for 3rd best, but all the Indy movies are great because of the story, director, composer and star.

 

Although the vine-swinging and much of the third act is considered subpar in my circles, I loved Crystal Skull, too. I'm in a weird position where Temple of Doom is my flawed favorite, yet consider Raiders to be a masterpiece (I know, an incredibly controversial minority opinion). I have a greater affinity for the pulpier elements of Doom--especially the over-the-top dark sorcery stuff--but I can't deny Raiders is cinematic perfection. It hasn't been easy trying to resolve that dissonance. But overall, I love them all.

 

If I had to choose I'd say Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is the weakest but it's still a fun movie. The negative hyperbole that surrounds it is out of control.

But I digress...if this rumor has any truth to it, I'm excited. However I wouldn't be surprised if Solo was killed off at some point in the trilogy.

 

I really don't care about Indy 5, but glad to see Han Solo back!

 

I am in the same boat when it comes to Indiana Jones. The reason I want more SW movies is there is always more story to tell, as you can take plotline anywhere with so many different characters. Indiana Jones movies are essentially standalone movies like James Bond, that aren't telling more of a story to add on to the others.

I'm anxious to see how Ford plays Han Solo in this one, as I am trying to think of cool characters in movies that actors played later on when they were older? Dirty Harry was filmed in 1971 and the Dead Pool was filmed in 1988, as Eastwood still played it cool even as an older cop. Any others people can think of?

 

Actually I am an "older" fan. I am 35 and grew up in the 80s with the OT. I love Han Solo and am as die hard of a Star Wars fan as there is. To me Indy is Harrison's better role of the two. Again, Han is a great charactor too. But to me Star Wars is more about the Luke and Vader characters, and what the draw to Star Wars is for me. Star Wars is also much more of an ensemble cast type of movie. Whereas, for Indiana Jones its all about the title character.
