I for one am a huge Harrison Ford fan, I think the original Raiders is one of the greatest movies of all time, so I'm rooting for this one.


Then you should have wanted him to remain ridden off into the sunset, literally, at the end of Last Crusade. We got three classic movies with an iconic character. why do we need to witness the guy all the way into a retirement home? Can't we allow the character to remain ageless in our minds the way we last saw him, at his best?





Instead, we've now gotten a dead Han Solo,



a dead and emasculated Luke Skywalker,



a dead and Mary Poppins Leia.



Now a geriatric Indiana Jones?



I don't want this to fail...I don't want ANYTHING to fail. What I want is for Hollywood to fricking STOP rebooting old IPs and allow old stories to remain, and start creating NEW stories.

Ouch. Flashbacks of suckery from those garbage films.

We WANT good movies.

THEY give us bad movies. Why is that hard to understand?

I thought ANDOR was extremely good. I'm not a 'hater'; I just hate garbage.

Attacking the fans as 'toxic' is insane. Those people paid the bills and made STAR WARS, STAR TREK, etc. valuable I.P.

It's kind of funny how in these threads we always blame the generic concept of "Hollywood," and never talk about the actors themselves rolling up in the motorized wheelchairs to make another cash grab. They're not being forced to star in these things, are they?
