I think it makes sense when you realize he is a teacher 99% of the time. He only wears that jacket when he goes on a expedition every few years. Its not his daily wear.
> same fricking outfit for decades
The older he gets the more insecure they become about putting him in anything else. He should look like his father, it's the logical development, nice bow tied around the whole package. He was already wearing the stuffy professor outfit in the original movies when he's actually teaching.
It's pathetic to see a geriatric man dressed up in his adventuring outfit like he never matured at all.
yeah, but he doesnt too bad in OP´s pic, i wish they keep him as a suspense hero, not action herol, he should work with another support characters, but off course thah will not happen because whoever iswriting that is a fricking hack and will not even try to change a little bit the tone.

It’s pretty funny how much a somewhat successful YouTuber with only a few hundred thousand subscribers is getting under the skin of Hollywood bigwigs. It’s fricking embarrassing. It’s like being a top athlete and getting mad at those fan channels criticising you.
The degree to which a lot of these people are just not used to being criticised and can't deal with it is pretty funny. Anyone should be able to deal with a few hecklers. This is really basic stuff.
But I guess if you always went to nice schools, and you rose up through the ranks of society, got a nice job in Hollywood, and you have all of the "right" opinions, and are only surrounded by people who have the "right" opinions, and then one day some nobody walks right up to you and calls you a homosexual moron, how do you even handle that?
>No one will ever replace Jones
This guy is such a disgusting bigot, why does he hate women so much? It's time for a woman Indiana Jones, why does he project his toxic masculinity on us?
A passing of the torch is dumb in the context of Indiana Jones. There's no great Indiana Jones universe or lore that's worth carrying on. Indiana Jones is a franchise about firstly Indiana Jones as a character, and secondly that whole crazy period of archaeology where you could still get away with going into a country, blowing things up with dynamite, and looting treasure, and the rest of the world was still strange and exotic.
What they actually should have done is recast Indiana Jones with someone like Brendan Fraser in the 90's, and established it as another James Bond style franchise.
>There's no great Indiana Jones universe
That's where you're wrong bucko. >that whole crazy period of archaeology where you could still get away with going into a country, blowing things up with dynamite, and looting treasure
Indy's actually in the wrong era for that too, it's more a late 1800s thing with gentleman scholars. The adventure serials really just capitalized on an already old fad (egyptomania), and Indiana Jones is an echo of that.
You're right in as much as the idea of Indiana Jones is time gated and becomes increasingly ludicrous the closer to modern day you put it, which is what you're forced to do with a passing of the torch canon.
Not that it's impossible to continue the adventure movies but if you modernize it for the 70s and beyond you have to drift into shit like the bermuda triangle and bigfoot and other memes of that era. Hunting a christian relic in the killing fields of Cambodia would be a pretty direct adaptation of the Indiana Jones formula so far but clearly it doesn't go over that well in a modern setting.
They thought they were too good to continue with a different cast and crew like some James Bond. And now they're paying the price. They missed the opportunity and now they're trying to fight time. Either treat the movies as a homage to the 30s serials and end on three or turn it into a long lasting franchise like Bond. They chose the worst possible option.
>Be the Lucasfilms shill >Make an Indiana Jones 5 general >Immediately post about Indiana Jones 5 outside the general
I am going to enjoy watching Lucasfilms squirm after this flops.
If they weren't moronic cowards, they would have updated the look so even if he still has the hat, the attire resembles something more like a professor in tweed - bit like his dad in Last Crusade. Having him wear the exact same shit makes him across as a sad, deluded old frick
the fact that he's wearing the same fricking outfit for decades
I think it makes sense when you realize he is a teacher 99% of the time. He only wears that jacket when he goes on a expedition every few years. Its not his daily wear.
It's been done

mayochud hivemind lol how sad, how pathetic - will always laugh at magapede mayonnic scum such as yourselves
I hate snakes on a plane
Yikes, even for a promo pic he looks like a ghoul.
you know he's 80 right?
Which is why they shouldn’t have him as the main character in an action adventure film
That's gerontophobia.
I dont fear 80yr old. I just hate them ruining things
Yeah. And they’re trying to pass him off as an action hero.
69 heh heh
why do they keep bringing him back? he already looked old and tired in Crystal Skull.
yeah, but he doesnt too bad in OP´s pic, i wish they keep him as a suspense hero, not action herol, he should work with another support characters, but off course thah will not happen because whoever iswriting that is a fricking hack and will not even try to change a little bit the tone.
>George Lucas has no involvement
Unironically a bad sign
>tries to whip something
>dislocates his arm and shits himself
Why didn't they just put him in as the aged wise man to pass on wisdom to the young new hero? This is just undignified
because iconic characters are treated like toys these days. i.e. they will keep wearing the same clothes and doing the same shit until they die.
At least he likes playing Indy. Not like Han Solo where he's just doing it out of spite.
>At least he likes playing Indy
I think he just likes working with Spielberg
No, he hates playing Han Solo because he thinks Star Wars is childish and he isn't the main character.
I didn't say anything about SW but I don't know if he actually enjoys Indy either.
If he didn't enjoy it he wouldn't be lining up to play him again and again.
it's fake

This only convinces me further that he’s getting replaced.
I didn't believe it before but if they're denying Cinemaphile posts on twitter I do believe it.

There's something very familiar about all this
too stupid to be real

Hey at least you have the Mummy 1/2 and National Treasure to enjoy on that subgenre
Chris Pratt would be Indy now

You just know the cgi in this movie is going to be beyond full moron.
>1969
Tripping balls here
Wow what a theme appropriate promo photo.
Just write an old man Clint script for him instead of having him swing around and jump from walls looking all silly

i'm going to watch it. maybe even in theaters. i watched kingdom of crystal skull in theaters
>FRICK YOUR COSTUME I'M WEARING THIS OR I'M NOT DOING IT
Do people really wear the same outfit for 40 years?
If they weren't moronic cowards, they would have updated the look so even if he still has the hat, the attire resembles something more like a professor in tweed - bit like his dad in Last Crusade. Having him wear the exact same shit makes him across as a sad, deluded old frick
80 years old with hundreds of millions of dollars, why is he still doing this shit?
