I'm, personally, not a big fan of the TV series and I know that opinion is mixed among other Indy fans. However, didn't Lucas originally want to do a spin off movie (or series of movies) featuring River Phoenix as Young Indy? When River died Lucas redeveloped the idea as a TV series.
I'm not a massive fan of the 'Young Indy' section of Crusade, although I infinitely prefer River in the role to SPF. I'm glad that Young Indy never made it to the big screen (I'm NOT saying I'm glad RP is dead!!) because I think the more we know about Indy as a kid the more it cheapens the adult 'Ford' version (I think I would have found it harder to ignore a big screen young Indy adventure than I have the TV series). But what's the common concensus, would people have been for or against a Young Indy movie with River.
