I know what you mean...at this rate, Ford WILL be nearly 70 before anything can happen. When you consider that the studio has already given Lucas and Spielberg some grief, I can only imagine that they'd be much more eager to 're-invent' the franchise with an Orlando Bloom-type actor and a slick (and ultimately hollow) cgi-driven popcorn flick.

It sounds like Ford is through trying to pick roles that are out of character for him and is back to the type of 'everyman saves family' role that has been his (non-franchise) bread and butter. I guess if it's slick and intelligent, it could be another Fugitive for him.

The bigger fish is Spielberg, who already has two projects lined up before Indy can get moving again.

Sigh.
