Indiana Jones and the Shattered Hip

Harrison Ford returns as Indiana Jones for fifth and final episode - BBC News

I like Harrison and the original trilogy but this relentless drive to not let a popular franchise go is somewhat wearing. I'd rather see him in something original.

[eek]

I suspect he would prefer not to be doing anything but they keep on offering him pay cheques too big to turn down..

Landing a plane on a taxiway is original, doesn't mean it was good.

I have never seen it, but by all accounts it is terrible. However, I have seen the house that it built, and it is terrific.

Most actors seem to love working, to be fair. Look at Clint Eastwood! Even though it'll be a huge pay-cheque he can't be that bothered considering his recent foray back into Star Wars. He probably loves the character.

I'd rather bad original than bad unoriginal that tarnishes a wonderful body of work. Well, Crystal Skull arguably already did that

Personally only rate the first one, particularly the scene where he shoots the swordsman, apparently because they didn't have time to shoot a full sword fight!

Beat me to it.

As cringey as Crystal Skull was, it wasn't as bad as Star Wars: The Force Awakens and subsequent films with far too many flaws. At least Crystal Skull was an enjoyable popcorn muncher, standing alone but with some nice throwback moments and connections to the earlier trilogy.

Force Awakens was good. The last two, not so much.

Don't forget Phantom Menace.
