With a little bit of work Harrison Ford could be as good as Rex Harrison, so there's really no need to look for replacement actors yet.
Production by Trey Parker and Matt Stone.

punisher5150 said:I agree, I think he was the weakest link for the last Indy. First, he refused to film at any location outside of the US. Second, the laziness in the humor (which is the saddest part, since he has juggled the inclusion of humor in his films admirably in the past.) I just think he wasn't that invested in the story, so he gave a barely-passable effort directing it. It seemd kind of passionless for a project that lamented in developmental hell for nearly 20 years! It was almost certainly just "phoned in."
Grizzlor said:I thought the outdoor sequences were the best parts of the movie, looked authentic. The soundstage interiors look extremely cheesy and poorly designed.
Grizzlor said:I don't think he was EVER interested in the script though, and as I said, phoned it in.
Udvarnoky said:I thought Guy Dyas' work was phenomenal, personally. Sure you're not mistaking production design for lighting choices?
The opening sequence was the best-looking of the movie for me, but otherwise I don't know that I agree with you.
BadDates said:It's been a while since I've watched it but I remember thinking that the Chauchilla Cemetery (above ground) looked really fake. Very disappointing.
Montana Smith said:Bad example. Plan 9 was more realistic.

In my opinion, everything after (but not including) the first CGI gopher and until (but not including) the appearance of Mac is absolutely perfect. The rest of the movie - not so much.

Grizzlor said:The cemetery is a good example though. The physical set looked very believable, and yet the setting still looked fake. I don't know if it was the lighting, or the camera angles? The interior cemetery looked fine, but the exterior night scene looked lousy. I think it was the lighting, combined with the CGI effects they added to the night sky.
Grizzlor said:The other issue I feel was detrimental to the film was that script-wise, it never seemed like Indiana Jones was even all that interested in the Macguffin. I think that was the biggest problem of all.
I thought the motivation was quite obvious - to stop the Reds from claiming whatever it is that waits at the end of the road. Incidentally, you could argue that the very same reason (to stop the MacGuffin from falling to the hands of the bad guys) has been at least one of the motivators to take the quest in the preceding three films as well.Udvarnoky said:He at least needed some kind of motivation. You could argue Indy didn't particularly want the grail in Last Crusade, until he needed it to save his dad. Once they escaped the Soviets, there should have been a better impetus to proceed on to the lost city than the heroes just having nothing better to do (which is entirely how it comes across). I think it would have been brilliant to have Indy lose his mind and be impelled to continue to Akator due to possession, and the others having no choice to follow him. Ya know, stakes.
Abound? For the jungle trek, there was *1* matte painting (palace in the distance) and *1* stage set (the campsite).Udvarnoky said:I think it's all the background plating they had to do that hurt pretty much all the Peru exterior scenes. I've always felt that if they had a few strategic instances of the actors actually trekking across Peru it would have helped immensely. (Temple of Doom did more or less the same thing - there were mattes and sound stages abound in the India trekking, but the use of legit footage too completed the illusion.)
The sarcasm involves the fact that Le Saboteur is not really interested in how fit Harrison's body is.Millions said:Er.... thanks, Stoo. Can she not speak for herself though, no?
And if she's being sarcastic in suggesting he has a bulge like he's smuggling a boxing glove down there, then is she suggesting he is hung like a button mushroom? What exactly are you saying???
Do you know the meaning of 'sarcastic'???
It's only a rumour for now so, hopefully, you didn't waste too much time looking for more information.Millions said:I can't really find much info on this latest speculation about 2 films. Does anyone have anything better?

I can think of a number of reasons why a younger director would not be better for "a new Ford Indy" movie.Raiders112390 said:Given Lucas' track record since 1999 and Spielbergs detachment from the directorial style he used on the Indy films, I don't see why a new Ford Indy might not actually be better in fresher, younger hands.
