Harrison Ford, Too Old To Play Indiana Jones?

Sure, I love Harrison Ford. My husband says I appear jealous whenever there is an article about him and his fiance, Calista Flockhart. Sure, they've been dating since 2002, but recently thee have been rumors that they've broken up. What I'm really curious about is if Harrison is up to the challenge of playing Indiana Jones just one...more...time! The poor fellow is tired, for gosh sakes. He's had numerous injuries on-set over the years. Quite honestly I fear for his health! What do you think, is Harrison up to the task, or is this a foolhardy endeavor?

I think he can do it. I think it would be fun to see him and Sean Connery again in that film older now. I would go see it. I think if they write it the right way without things that the audience would say "yeah, right" it could be good with some good action in it. I love Sean Connery. He plays his roles very well. I don't think Harrison Ford is ready to retire just yet. He still has plenty of years left in him. I guess we'll see.

I'm a fan of Indiana jones too!!! And harrison Ford is the best ever played that role (of course only he that played that role). And i think there's no other guy that will act as nice as him with that role. I still got a trio films of Indy in my DVD and love to keep it for memory :) But if u ask for now, i think he's not relevant anymore :D but if the role is about not too aggresive as his younger age, then it can be considerable. Like Sly with The new Rocky, not so aggresive like his golden time ago. But i really like to watch Harrison Ford on the move again with acting as Indy ....... :)

How old is he now? I don't remember having seen a recent piccy of him. I guess if he's over 50 (if he is, it really is a guess) then he probably isn't up to the task of playing Indiana Jones any more. The origional 3 movies were fab and i wouldn't want them to be spoilt by Harrison being made to make a 4th one if he's not up to it. Are there rumours that their is going to be another Indiana Jones movie?
