Set in the FIFTIES?

No more than sixteen years after Raiders?

So Harrison Ford's supposed to look like it's 1997 or earlier?

Hmmm.

Jordan said...

On the other hand, Last Crusade is set in 1938 and came out in 1989, which puts the 'fifties between 2001 and 2009. So I guess it works. Sort of.

Good to see you, old friend. Seriously, he looks older, wiser, yet still able to kick ass.

JPX said...

I feel giddy looking at this photo! Man, if I were him I would dress up as Indiana Jones every Halloween when I asnwered the door. It's so cool to see evidence that a new Indy flick is really happening!

He could also answer the door as Han Solo. Or the undercover cop in the Amish community from Witness.

JPX said...

Man, how cool is it that he played Indy AND Han? He could answer the door as Indy and say, "Hold on kids, I'm going to get my friend Han Solo to help out", close the door, change, and come back as Han, "What're you nerfherders lokking at?"

Hysterical. Man, he is something else though, isn't he? He's the only Star Wars cast member to make it through the Holiday Special with his dignity. I don't know how, but he remained unscathed. Do you remember Luke's ridiculous makeup?

OMG, he is the hottest man alive.
Ditto on the goosebumps - both for the reason of the shot and the fact that he is AMAZING!!
Gotta go wipe the drool off my chin.

And then Han Solo could say "hang on, let me get my friend Dr. Richard Kimble to help out," and then he'd change and sneak out the back while the cops busted through the front door, scattering kids.

Can we work a train collision in there somewhere?

JPX said...

He could also answer the door as Decker and accuse the kids of being replicants.

Julie said...

Can he just answer the door as himself? Like in only a towel?

JPX said...

That would be his character from What Lies Beneath!

Jordan said...

No, it's his character from Working Girl.

Salem's Lot 1979 and Salem's Lot 2024

Happy Halloween everybody! Julie's working late and the boy doesn't have school tomorrow so he's heading to one of those crazy f...
