Aside from the fact that I'm just not a fan of his acting and the way he handles himself in public, (drinking and driving, drunken rampage in a Walgreen's pharmacy, bragging about sleeping with Megan Fox), I find it hard to believe someone like Karen Allen and like Harrison Ford had him as a son.

He's young..Does dumb things,says some dumb things..we grow,mature, and move on. AND if I slept with Megan Fox you better believe I would be bragging..sounds human to me?
AND any time Ive ever seen him on tv he comes off as a decent person. Does it mean he is? NO..but it means he acts right when its time..I like him pretty well. Heck if we disliked,condemned all the actors that did what he has done,I guess we wouldnt really like or have any of them to enjoy.
That's foolish. Don't let KOTCS sour your judgement on the whole series.
The world has moved on. We got two good films, a half-decent one and a craptastic one. We don't need any more. Really.
So what if he's Indiana Jones? He has a hat, a whip, does adventures. It's not a big deal if we never see him on the big screen again. He was only a cipher in the first place, not a real person.
Let him die with KoCS. He's out of time.

Of course we don't need another one (do we even really need movies at all?), but I, and many others would like to see him on the big screen again.
It's not gonna happen, but I would like for it to become reality.

I think I might be a Nexus-6 skin job as well, as Tyrell programmed me with similar thoughts.
Other anti-heroes are available.
And besides, as I wrote:

Indy's had his day until the reboots come, and that's only when they've managed to shoe-horn old 15 chins six-feet under.
And the reboots won't be nearly as good as the originals, so why bother? Indy was a Harrison Ford vehicle.

Most people just don't like the character. After almost four years of haunting this board every day, and reading so many people's opinions, that is the gist of it IMO.
I have felt that way before, but now; I really wouldn't mind seeing Mutt in the fedora. I like Shia as an actor, and Mutt the character has grown on me as well.
Really? You'd announce to the world in a egotistical and obnoxious manner something that was supposed to be private between two people?
I don't see Fox talking about it. So I think it was supposed to ber private.

He's a class act.
I'm not the one trying to make a career out of getting my face on a gigantic screen in front of a paying audience as often as possible.
Watching YIJC this evening. Does anyone think SPF could pull off a 1930's Indiana Jones?
While I'm not a huge YIJC fan or SPF fan or a fan of a reboot, at least if they did do a reboot he would give some consistency to the series instead of us adding another actor to the list of Indy's.

I would love to see a 20's and 30's Indiana Jones. I agree with Henry W Jones. I would pick SPF for continuity but the problem is. . . SPF is 46 while Harrison Ford was 39 when he did Raiders. The age difference would be noticeable.

It doesn't have to start before Raiders and I think the actor change from HF to SPF would be the most distracting not age. I also tossed out the idea more for conversation, I am not wanting a reboot at all. I feel the series should not continue without Ford and maybe someone with some creativity could come up with a similar character that is not a blatant rip off.

I would use SPF for films before the Harrison Ford timeline (before ROTLA). That way the transition wouldn't be too distracting since the films would begin after the last episode of the Young Indiana Jones series. I always wonder what other stories we could've got if Lucas, Spielberg and Ford would've done at least two more films before KOTCS.
It was mentioned that Short Round became an archeologist. Would you want to see Quan in a movie with a grown up Mr. Round over Mutt?
I think it sounds interesting.
Could it be any worse?
actually ive brought this up before..having shortround kind of going against Indy..working more for the money then the love of it...then having a change of heart along the way and both of them teaming up and kickingbutt...shortround was a great character about my favorite next to Indy. would love it if they could work him in..

A 70 year old Indy and an adult version of the annoying kid from Temple in the same film?
I better change my trousers, the excitement is uncontainable!

Well the people that still accept HF as Indy would be fine with about anything..it seems the ones with the problems are the people that hate Mutt and hate thinking of a 70 year old man kicking butt still...I choose to like about anything..and KOTCS shows me HF still has it!!
