Yeah. Nothing against Ryan, he's a good actor, but it was wasted potential not to use Harrison as much as they could.

sum1

Bloody right.

PhoenixRising

Well, that's just the thing, it isn't new. Yeah, they focus on newer actors, but they're just doing remakes and reboots and sequels to old movies that became classics. They're tracing over someone else's work, but not really coming up with anything original.

And if they were gonna do a Blade Runner sequel, I wish it had been done in the 90s, when Harrison still could've been the lead.

a new hope

He could still do it, they just have to give him the lead part.

PhoenixRising

Well, I'd still have preferred that he had done it 10 or 15 years ago.

a new hope

Any reason in particular?

Alex doesn't like people being old.

PhoenixRising

That's not true, sum1. It just would've been easier if he'd done it earlier. I think too much time had passed by the time the sequel came out.

a new hope

Well I'll take any movie with Harrison at any age. But he's probably gonna wanna retire at some point so they should hurry up if they're planning another one.

sum1

Yeah.

I had no problem with Harrison coming back to do Indiana Jones, did I? I would've preferred if Shia hadn't been there, though. We didn't need him. But there had been three Indiana Jones movies before that one, and the problems with Kingdom of the Crystal Skull had to do with the script, not Harrison. But Blade Runner... well, I think there was a narrow window to make a sequel to that.

sum1

Shia was good.

a new hope

I liked Shia, but I'm glad that for whatever reason they won't be making him the new Indy as they hinted on the last movie.

Blade Runner 2049, if I remember correctly, ended with Ryan's character dying and Harrison's character finding his daughter, so there's definitely room for a new movie with Harrison.

sum1

Yeah.
