W/O a doubt, Ford will rock the **** in this movie. He was still cool in Firewall, my issue there wasn't so much he looked old, just not the best plot.
Actually, a friend who isn't as much into Indiana Jones as I am, said he was more excited for another IJ movie after seeing
Firewall. (he was skeptical before because of Ford's age.)
On the topic of
Firewall, I never did see it. Was it worth watching?

The possibility of Mutt being too prominent is the one aspect that worries me more than anything.
If he does end up spoiling the film, I guess that's one thing we can all blame squarely on Lucas.
Shia strikes me as an honest and forth-right actor.
I like the idea of having him in an Indiana Jones movie. I'm not real worried about him ruining the movie, though it's definitely been a worry among Indy fans that he will take the lime light away from the films title character.
I think the guy has humility, he has also spoken multiple times of his respect for Mr. Ford. If it were someone like Leonardo DiCaprio, then I'd be worried (as well as ill
), but I think Shia will actually be a great asset to the movie.
The claim that he might be too heavily in the script (taking over for Indy, as it were) may not be a base-less worry, though: we'll find out in May.
