I'd like to see a fifth film before a reboot. With that said, only if it was done right. That's part of the reason why I still hold out for Die Hard, I figure, "maybe, if the property got into the right hands; the hands of someone who could do it justice, the franchise could end on a high note."

Yeah, I hear you there. I just think at this point the idea of a fresh, new (in his prime) Indy to give the franchise a bright, lengthy future is more exciting to me than hoping Indy as an old man is more entertaining the second (and final) time around.

Oh, I'd like to see it reinvigorated with a reboot, too, but I'm just saying that I wouldn't mind one last "hurrah" for Ford.
 
Ford is Indy. Period. Indy isn't Bond and never will be. They shouldn't do anything without Ford as Indy. It just wouldn't ever be the same.

I agree to an extent, I would be fine with them never making another Indy film, but I think we all know more are inevitable. It wouldn't be the same, no, but I think there is still potential there for some great adventure films in a reboot.
 
I'm more okay with Indy being revisited than I am other things because, as much as I love Ford's interpretation, Indy really isn't all that original, when you think about it. Indy, as a character, is just a throwback to a lot of the classic heroes of 30's pulp fiction.
 
Yea if they do both just reboot them stop hanging on to Ford and Arnold.

I'll take that over looking at super old washed up versions of the beloved characters. As far as I know, Arnie signed on for T5.

I have no interest in seeing Arnie in another Terminator movie. None.

KOTCS had a lot wrong with it but Ford as Indy wasn't one of them. He still looked good in the role. As long as the writing and direction is good I'm down.

I wouldn't be opposed to a reboot either.

Raiders and TOD will suit my Indy needs just fine for the rest of my life. I don't need any sequels or reboots.

My initial thought is similar to Khev, but if we could get some good, pulp, serial film-type adventure films creatively driven somehow by Spielberg, then I would be totally for it. Whether that means a reboot of Indy, or a new story altogether doesn't really matter so much. Let Disney give it a shot. Why not? If it sucks, so be it. Could be another Star Trek reboot-type situation though, which. . .at least worked for one movie.
 
I personally would rather a reboot. It's not that I hated Crystal Skull, I just would like to see a young, adventurous Indy again. With the right actor and the right script I think it could really work.
 
I just googled that guy. I'm not familiar with any of his acting work, but his look could pass for a young Indy in a River Phoenix kind of way.

:lecture:lecture:lecture:exactly: Indy isn't Bond where he'll survive recast after recast, and shares so much of his character with who Ford is.

They'd be better off starting a Nathan Drake franchise, or a Son of Joes with Shia le ****** (we hate it but the younger generation will be all over it like Flosi on schoolgirl porn). Neither will recapture the nostalgia the original has/had because it lives and will die with Ford. At best it would be something in the vein of the Total Recall reboot where it's fun but meh because it doesn't work on so many levels. At worst, it'll seem like the Conan reboot, where it gets ignored via a sequel to the original series with the original star.

Agreed but Ford is too old now the character needs a refresh.
