Iconic character - actor combinations

So the idea is being tossed around of rebooting the Indiana Jones movies.

(probably has a lot to do with the colossal Mongolian cluster %#$& that 'Crystal Skull' was)

Unfortunately, series star Harrison Ford is a little too old to kep doing this part, so the powers that be have suggested casting a new young actor to take over the role of the heroic archaeologist.

Namely, Guardians of the Galaxy's Chris Pratt.

I like Chris Pratt. I think he's great.

I hate the idea of him playing Indiana Jones with the fire of a thousand sons.

There are some characters that are just so completely, irrevocably tied to certain actors that recasting them is just a travesty. In my opinion, Indiana Jones - Harrison Ford is one of those connections.

Who else would you suggest so defined a certain role that no one else should try and play it?

Everyone can be replaced. Jared Leto for Heath Ledger.

And as millions of Marines and naval officers can attest Gunny can be replaced. Except with a woman. Only because I don't think anyone would believe how foul mouthed and cruel those female Drill Instructors are.

yeah there will be a new actor playing a young luke skywalker as well in the new starwars movie.

From the rumor I saw, a different actor will portray Luke in a short flashback scene, but Hamill will reprise his role as the current aged Skywalker in the new movies.

While not on topic Willis is one of the coolest guys in Hollywood. I met him during Tears of the Sun. He stopped to play softball with us on base. He was telling us how all of his contracts have an end of day time during shooting so the crew can rest and see their families.

    • Wanting that type of play and being okay with paying $55 million a season for it are two entirely different things. If Bryce were to become the same player Purdy has been, then he would surpass my expectations of him and I'd be okay with him as our QB of the future (and again, I've long been one of the bigger anti Bryce people here who doesn't think he is capable of being our long term solution). But in no world would I be okay with paying him THAT kind of money, paying an average starter elite money is just a terrible decision.
    • I don't think they can overcome that mistake. Hell Lance was a hiccup compared to this. He isn't going to be able to carry that price tag and now he is going to have to do just that. Lol. The NFL is so dumb sometimes.
    • So, one could say that T-Mac is quicker than someone of his size should be and while he might not be quite as fast as Evans in the 40, he's more athletic than Evans. If only someone, anyone, could have seen that in his tape and mentioned that on here, hmmmmmmm In all seriousness, hearing he tested in the 89th percentile in that drill at his size is crazy impressive.  Just tried to look up the times of the top WRs in the league right now, most don't show at time for that, but I did see Chase ran his in 7 seconds flat. I honestly don't know how true this is, but I do remember seeing one breakdown of his tape and the person said he has quiet and efficient feet.  That he's really good at using the minimal steps possible to make his cuts and because of that, it actually makes him look slower to the human eye because you don't see all the quick chop steps that the guys like Tyreek would use in their running. I'm still in a state of disbelief that he's a Panther and it might not fully hit me until week 1 and I see him out there making plays for us, still feels like Goodell is going to just be like, "YOU GOT PUNKED!!!  hahaha, he's a Cowboy now, suck it"
