Ok guys, Ford is too old and I don't want to see this franchise die with Swinging LaBeef.

Let's recast Indiana Jones and get this motherfuckin' franchise on the right track.

My pick:

Bradley Cooper. I'd prefer a no name but if I had to pick someone based on star power and actually having the "look" of the character, it would have to be him.

It has to be done GAF. Recast Indiana Jones!

I would be fine with a new franchise that borrows elements from Indy, but makes it its own in some cool way.

I don't think I want another Indy movie, though.

But if I had to choose someone, I'd probably go with Jon Hamm.

I want another Indiana Jones adventure with a young Indy. The character is timeless, just like Bond or Kirk.

If it followed Young Indy, he'd have to be a lot younger than Bradley Cooper.

But I would be totally down for that. I loved the Young Indy books.

Not a Young, Young Indy. I should have said an Indy in his prime. Although, I'm all cool with the idea of rebooting the Young Indy concept too. There's a lot to work with there.

I've never been able to take Bradley Cooper seriously after noticing that one of his eyes is lower than the other. Sorry, freakshow, it's all I can think of when I look at you.

Can't unsee.

I am undone.

Say what you will about the overall plot and sidekick of Crystal Skull but I thought Harrison Ford had his moments as Indy

If we can get one more out of him I say let the franchise stop altogether, no prequels or reboots or sequel nonsense plz

I think there is absolutely nothing wrong with continuing Indy once Ford has stepped down. I think another actor will never be as good as Ford but the character has a lot of adventures left in him. It would be a shame to let such an iconic character go to waste.

It worked with Star Trek IMO and it can work here.

For the reason no one will be better than Harrison Ford is the reason it should stop

We already have the Young Indy adventures

That's a silly reason to stop. Pine isn't as good as Shatner yet I still enjoyed Star Trek. No one can live up to Connery, yet I still enjoy the Bond films.

People said Tom Baker was the best Doctor, that doesn't stop anyone from filling in the shoes on that production.

You know what I would love? If we could get Gaffer's to record themselves auditioning for the parts of an Indiana Jones reboot.

Lol. They did eventually do an Indy spoof on Magnum PI. Selleck was a great fit for the role as well.

You assume that a newly rebooted Indiana Jones will be as good as the rebooted Star Trek though

This. This is brilliant.

Just because we don't know that it might be as good we shouldn't try? For all we know the actor they choose could be every bit as good in the role. Then again, he could suck balls. I say it's worth the risk.

The series already got a turd with Ford in the role. Might as well try something new.

I've always wanted to see a Ford Indy for the Fate of Atlantis, which of course was voice acted by an Indy impersonator who still sounded nothing like him
