Every now and again I will see someone on these boards mention "rebooting" or "recasting" Indiana Jones. Usually, this idea is met with a quick internet beat down and claims that Harrison is the the only person who can ever be Indy.
I don't agree with that.
Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Harrison Ford--he is my alltime favorite actor. However, I love the character of Indiana Jones more.
I would love to see him become like James Bond. The character is, in many ways, more fertile ground for continuing tales of adventure than 007.
Is it possible that we could reserve the title of original and always best Indiana Jones for Harrison Ford? We do this for Connery and 007. He is the measuring stick...and every few years we have the joy of a new Bond film. It should be the same for Indy...let other directors take a crack at Indy as well.
I don't know about you all, but I would much rather have 20 more Indy adventures (even with some missteps) than have a Mutt spin off, or worse yet, have the whole thing be over.
Anyone think that this is ever possible? In a decade or so? Or will Lucas and Spielberg never allow for this? Is it cinematic sacrilege?
