I wonder if Doom in the new movie will use magic. If this movie doesn't do Doom right (which from the leaks makes me think they aren't) this movie is a failure. I'll let everything slide if they do Doom correctly

Well it's not like Doom always knew magic. They could start off with him being just a super genius. Then he goes on to learn magic. There's been so many retcons to Doom and magic though. One they added that he went back in time to learn from Morgan Le Fay while the other he kind of always knew magic or inherited cuz his mom's a gypsy and then he goes to hell to save her soul or resurrect her or something like that.

Pratt has been in more films than pre Indiana Jones Ford lol he also would have more acting experience than Ford.

Unfortunately look at the movies and his roles.

The closest to playing a smart person was when he was fat and was somebody's lawyer. I think it was Delivery Man :lol: The other serious role being the SEAL team soldier in Zero Dark Thirty but I doubt he had more than a dozen lines. Before around the time of getting his gig in Parks he has mostly been a supporting role type actor. So that's experience in getting use to acting and how movies/tv work but that's it.

It's really the quality of films Ford's been in if we had some idea of what Indiana Jones would've been before 1981. Indy is basically a mix of Han Solo and any other comedy he's been in like The Frisco Kid or the American Graffiti movies.

I think he could pull it off.. I don't think they should touch Indiana Jones but if they do he's probably the best option imo. The Magnificent Seven news made more sense than this

I couldn't think of anyone better cuz something like that just wasn't on my mind but I saw somebody say Bradley Cooper would make a better Indiana Jones and I agree with that.

Just saying don't do what they did last time and make him Cole from Infamous or Electro
 
Like i said a few weeks ago, you could have your "own" Indiana Jones with the Uncharted film if it's handled by the right people...

It'd only be right to get Harrison to play the new Indy's dad.[/quote]


He already did

This... Must.... Happen... Somehow...


Mark Millar Reveals THE RAID Director Was Interested In A HIT-GIRL Solo Film

“Before Kick-*** 2 came out we’d been talking about a Hit-Girl spin-off movie” he explained. “We’d even talked to a director – we had a couple of calls with Gareth Evans, who I absolutely love. He’s an amazing director. But Gareth’s now busy. Matthew [Vaughn] still floats it occasionally. I’m very philosophical about it – I’ve done my books and I’m really happy with the work and happy with the films. If anything else happens – gravy.”

The Raid director overseeing a standalone Hit-Girl movie? That sounds so incredibly cool that we’re kind of annoyed Millar told us it was once on the cards.

He was in like over 20 movies before that role. He showed his range almost over 2 decades. Between the two based off their work at that time I can take Ford as a professor before Pratt especially given the time period the movie was set in.

Besides that Indiana Jones wasn't some book first that turned in to the movie. It was a story by Lucas that he was always aiming to make a film. So it's not like we came in knowing Ford is going to be a professor during the week and adventurer on the weekends. It was simply just another action adventure movie. With Ford's star power coming off Star Wars and other stuff along with Spielberg directing ppl would come to see regardless.

This remake obviously is gonna be in the shadow of the OG.

I just think Pratt is really gonna have to get better as an actor if he takes this role unless they're going for straight comedy with this new version.

Granted the movie came out before I was born.. But as a pretty avid movie watching the only big ford movies prior to him being Indy was american Graffity, Star Wars and a bit part in apocalyse now

Maybe if he had done blade runner before, I could see it a bit

But I didn't see the character he was in Indy in any of those films.. He is what robert Langdon should have been in those movies

I'm sorry but that trash with Shia LeBeouf doesn't really count.

Movie was still mainly all Ford.

Those 3 movies actually were more than enough for me even the bit part in Apocalypse Now.

The cavalier attitude of Solo and the levity throughout American Graffiti. That was enough for me if I was looking toward that movie just by hearing about it cuz again at that time the story is original and it's not some adaption, nobody knows what Raiders is gonna be at all unless they hear a description and they only get an idea after seeing the trailer. It's not like we knew what Ford had to fit in to the first time you watch it. The way Ford acts it's not a surprise he not only pulls it off but completely owns the character. Plus it's not like the role of Indiana Jones was some huge acting role that demands an extreme range. It's just a specific type of character.

I'm not saying I saw Indy in those films. I'm saying I saw Ford's potential to end up being Indy by portraying those roles. It's sort of how RDJR brings a whole lot more of him to Tony Stark than he is playing the comic character of Tony Stark or how Sean Connery is James Bond. It's not so much the roles they did before but the actor themselves.
 
I can't even speak on Connery.. The first thing I watched of his, was his bond films

I can speak on daniel Craig.. After watching layer cake, I could see what he would bring to bond

But with RDJ, we knew dude was the goods from less than zero way back when (obviously a lot less when he was in weird science and back to school).. And then we all knew what was going on with his personal life.. He basically was the real life stark with the personal problems





If blade runner came before Indy, then I would get it.. But he came off of playing Han freakin solo, the guy everyone came away from that film wanting to be once they saw Star Wars at an age where they were interested in girls.. In a movie where everything is written for luke skywalker to be the big hero, it was Harrison ford who came away the big A list star

With Indy dude had to be more subdued, and had to make an extremely boring character in theory exciting.. Like that scene where the girl blinks with the words on her eyebrows, he made that actually seem plausible.. The dude who just came off of pulling off the "I know" when Leia says she loves him

I think that's just where we differ.

I don't think Harrison Ford was anywhere near the position as Pratt is now or was before GotG before he did Raiders nor do I think he was viewed as an actor that couldn't pull off a role like Indiana Jones. When I watched any of the movies he's been in pre-Raiders I don't question his acting. The SW movies are really probably enough and again if we're going in order there was no expectancy for Raiders of the Lost Ark. It's not like it was a remake and the role itself didn't require some amazing acting pedigree to pull off. If somebody describes Indy before you ever see Raiders or just the movie itself and then tells you Harrison Ford is the lead I'm not really thinking Ford might not be able to do it justice (depending on if the description of the movie is to my liking).

I can't really say the role of Indy was anymore hard for Ford than Solo was. Main difference being Indy became iconic and helped launch his career in to that next stratosphere as a big time box office actor since he was the main lead in it so there was just more of his skill to show off.

I think that's probably the main part where we differ. While the role of Indy is very specific character wise with any traits or scene you want to bring up to me there's a lot more Ford in Indy than there was a script demanding more from Ford.

Don't forget he had blade runner thrown in there.. Then the jack ryan movies, the fugitive and a good Sabrina movie

I guess another example is chris Evans, there is no way I saw him being this good as cap or a movie like snowpiercer in there when dude was in not another teen movie or playing Johnny storm




I agree with you on Pratt.. As I don't know if dude will be able to pull off being believably smart, but maybe they go a different route with it

I actually don't even think Evans is that good of an actor or that good as Cap.

He definitely does it enough justice to portray the Cap I know from the comics but like I said to me we're talking about roles that don't necessarily demand that much of a transformation so it's not going to be much to complain about in the first place unless the person is laughably bad. Like you can give props if you watch F4 and then watch Cap, Cap2 or Avengers cuz even when I heard the casting I was like I don't know if he could do it but him actually doing it didn't make me go wow Evans is really good.

I still need to see Snowpiercer though.
 
^ I'm just saying there is no way in hell I thought he could pull off either role..

It would be like me trying to take ryan Reynolds seriously in a dramatic role at this point, even though I thought dude was decent in smokin aces and safe house

Or trying take Channing Tatum seriously in anything ( I haven't seen Foxcatcher)





George clowney might be a good example real early in his career.. Or Tom hanks when he was doing bosom buddies
 
I never thought Bradley Cooper was going to become a great actor either..

Everything he did pre-Hangover (outside of Wedding Crashers) gave NO indication the guy had any range as an actor.

Sometimes you never know what a guy is capable of until they get their shot. Still not arguing for Pratt to be the next Indy but i'll like to see him take on more serious work.
 
Terminator SB Spot confirmed

1374921
 
Going off the first Jurassic World trailer it seems like Pratt is taking on his most serious role yet and I think he could pull it off as Indy but I'd prefer the remake just not be done.

I had great hope for mcconaughey solely because of my love for dazed and confused.. But I watched failure to launch the other day because it was on..

And man was that movie horrible with both of those guys in it.. Needless to say my faith was waning

Both obviously rebounded well.. But I hought cooper would be stuck in hangover/a team type roles that basically just had him as a good looking charismatic dude.. But he was good in that movie about the smart pills



Cooper might actually make a good indy
