Is Harrison Ford Too Old to Play Indy?

And should Nathan Fillion replace him? This is the question asked in this week's Sci Fi Wire Poll.

Am i a freak for not wanting another Indiana Jones movie? The originals are classics, trying to breathe life into it again now... it just has to be doomed to fail, doesn't it? What do you guys think? Are you hoping for another one, or are you fine with the movies we already have.

As for the other thing... I like Nathan Fillion, but if Harrison Ford isn't going to play the part they should just call the whole thing off straight away, once you start changing the actors things are bound to get crappy.

Yea I dunno bout that either... I'd rather remember him as Indiana in his prime. :\ It's like as much as I love the Lethal Weapon series, I couldn't take seeing Mel playing Riggs again all old. They already touched on the fact he's not the badass he once was in the last film. Didn't like that! lol If he can't run all crazy down the street with nary a huff or puff, then I don't want to see it. ;P There was talk of him reprising Mad Max though, hmm.

Yeah, me too.

They should leave well enough alone, same goes for Lethal Weapon and Mad Max... I'm sure there are others too, but I can't remember.

Instead they could actually try o come up with new stuff.
