[AJUMP23]

Well he is pretty old and his bones may be brittle.

 

[TrueLegend]

Let this poor man rest, please. He doesn't need to reprise all his iconic roles. How many sequels do people want. All these sequels end up disrespecting original material. Terminator, Star Wars, Star Trek ......stop beating the dead horses already. Seriously someone needs to Stop JJ man, this guy is a nutjob....otherwise he is going to ruin HALF-LIFE with his Half-Life movie.

Sack him off live work, get a body double, deep fake, and he can do the voice work

 

[AlteredForms]

It’s the years AND the mileage.

 

[Xenon]

He belongs in a museum.

 

[Blond]

My Mom always said “Harrison Ford never got old he just grew into his face.”

 

[FunkMiller]

Wow. What a surprise. Putting a nearly 80 year old man in a physically demanding role results in injury. I am truly shocked.

This is actually pretty cool idea, but then you would have people complaining actors are not ‘earning their pay’ even thought getting millions for (sometimes) a few days of shooting is questionable to begin with.

The director apparently spent 12 hours having twitter arguments with fans on Sunday over - among other things - the idea that Harrison Ford was too old to make another Indiana Jones movie (he called it 'ageist').

 

[HarryKS]

Take a nap grandpa.

Use some common sense and move on.

After 3:10 to Yuma, Logan, and Ford vs Ferrari; Mangold has the right to tell Twitter dumbasses to go fuck themselves.

You got any links for that? Normally don't agree remotely with anything the Twatter mob has to say on anything but in this case they may be right.. 80y.o. fucking Indy is not something this fan wants to see

3:10 to Yuma was so good man. We need another Bale-Crowe collab.

Leave the old rich man alone. There's a million young, talented aspiring actors looking for their big break.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Time for the old dog to retire.

 

[nush]

Time for the old dog to retire.

Indy was the dogs name.

 

[JSoup]

otherwise he is going to ruin HALF-LIFE with his Half-Life movie.

It would be pretty impressive if he could to more damage to Half-Life than Valve has already done.

 

[carlosrox]

I have no idea why they're making another Indy movie, I mean especially now.

Not sure I've ever seen such a late sequel get an even later sequel like a decade later.

 

[Birdo]

He cringed so hard reading the dialogue, that his shoulder dislocated.

And fans have the right to call him a dumbass after everyone told him putting a 80 year old man in action scenes was dumb.

Just asking for trouble

If Harrison Ford wants to do it .... let him?

He wanted to fly planes and we let him, look how that turned out.

 

[ManaByte]

You mean when he rescued stranded hikers using his helicopter...twice?

 

[sol_bad]

I'm not sure what this means but if you are saying he is a public risk by flying a plane ..... that's a bit different to being on a movie set.

 

[Pegasus Actual]

You mean when he rescued stranded hikers using his helicopter...twice?

Obviously not. Do you not know what a plane is or something?

 

[Airbus Jr]

Human lives are so short man

I wish i can be like witcher geralt doin heavy physical activities even when im over hundred years old

 

[haxan7]

I and another person I know both sprained our shoulders in the last month.

It seems to be happening to all the greats.

When i first heard about the second Star Wars-triology I was stoked, the 16 year old me or whatever was hyped the fuck out!
I was treated with a 30-odd minute podrace with a kid i wouldn't cast for a special-ed commercial.
When the newest (third triology) i thought - well, they sure as shit can't do any worse than last time!

but they did...

And I think, the sequels devalues the original in a weird fucking way.

 

[Romulus]

Probably doesn't help that hes been a couple of plane crashes on top of being basically 80 years old

 

[Azurro]

After 3:10 to Yuma, Logan, and Ford vs Ferrari; Mangold has the right to tell Twitter dumbasses to go fuck themselves.

Come on, Hollywood is trotting out an 80 year old guy on set and making him do action scenes to make money. It's shameless.

 

[MMaRsu]

First footage of the movie

 

[JimmyRustler]

They should just give Ford a role in the new movie equivalent to what Connery was in Last Crusade. Putting him in fight scenes and crazy stunts was already retarded in Crystal Skull - and this was more that 10 bloody years ago.

 

[Rudius]

I don't care because it will probably be just another inoffensive, copy-paste cash grab.
Why can't new movies be good and innovative like the old ones? I rarely like any movie made in the past 10 years or so, and it's starting to affect games as well. I'm 34 and already feel like an old and super conservative man...

 

[Halo is Back]

He wanted to fly planes and we let him, look how that turned out.

He also pressured Steven to do Indy 4, even when Spielberg said he wasn't interested. Literally, everyone including fans wanted Indy 4 except the director himself.

 

[GamingKaiju]

Let the poor guy rest now. Indy didn’t need another movie and tbh KotCS wasn’t the best.
Indy 1 still the best.

 

[T8SC]

(I'd also accept The Last Crusade).

[StreetsofBeige]

This guy should called it quits in the 2000s. His performance in Crystal Skull was laughable and that was 2008 when he was 65. Now he's 78.

 

[INC]

Apparently he's having surgery and the Ulm could be canned

This s the best result I feel

Spielberg doesn't like sequels. He always considered them "cheap carny tricks". He did the Indy trilogy because Lucas told him if he did Raiders he had to do three of them because he had stories for them (he didn't).

 

[Valonquar]

Well Movie #4 was terrible AND Shia kinda mucked things further, so I hardly even understand what they are going to do at all at this point.

 

[TTOOLL]

I can see people telling him not to do it and he acting like the old man he is saying “I can do this shit”. Bam

 

[mansoor1980]

 

[highrider]

He’d still beat the shit out of most dudes on this forum.

 

[Ichabod]

Wait til you guys hear about the supposed ending Kennedy and co have in store for ol' Indy, if the rumors are true...insult to injury
