Henry W Jones said:Couldn't we just introduce the 4 current ones to newer generations? Or any others made with Ford? Why is rebooting necessary?
The first three were pre digital and have that intended charm of 'realism' via stunts, etc. The fourth included digital and some of that came under criticism as not looking realistic enough.
How are future Indiana Jones going to be made? More CG and less stunts? They could go into the fantastical which might suit an audience more so now.
I think the younger generation will slowly discover the first four movies as their families introduce those to them. But they might consider them anomalies.
I look forward to whatever IJ movies HF has left in him and I also look forward to a new, younger actor taking up the hat and whip. The younger actor will be someone that these newer audiences can relate to and this will give new life to any continuing onscreen adventures.
