: Looking forward to the new Indy movie as much as anybody, but i'm realistically expecting this to be the last one. But I dont' want it to be the death of the franchise! Harrison Ford is the man, he can't keep doing these forever.

: What about these scenarios, a younger brother of Indy who is a mercenary or some sort of low character appears in this one (I can imagine Bruce Wills in this role) who has his own spin-off series after this.

: Or, Indy can have a son who he names Indiana (to avoid using the moniker Henry Jones II) who carries on the legacy with a little help from dad once in a while, a la Sean Connery. Russell Crowe or maybe some other up and comer could do a great job here.

: Anyway, the new movie should rock, I'm looking forward to it even more than I did the new Star Wars.

: p.s., anybody know if the Wested jacket comes in varying sizes, or you're pretty much stuck with a chest size of 38-42?
: p.p.s. If anybody has a copy of the movie Secret of the Incas they would like to sell or rent, or knows where I could rent one in California please post. I've looked everywhere and I can't find this movie, in which Charlton Heston is the proto-Indiana Jones.

Personally, I'd have to lean more towards a Brandon Fraser carrying the torch - I just have a problem with Bruce Willis. Maybe exlopre Indy in the 1920's and 30's some more? I doubt, however, if there will be any follow-ups to Indy IV.

As for the Wested's - it's pretty much wide open as far as sizes go. You give Peter the dimensions, and he makes the jacket. The is an additional charge for going beyong the size 46. I take a 48 with some other modifications. This tends to run me another Ł15 ($25).

Cheers!

  - Yea, the real problem is that there just aren't Harrison Fords, or Humphrey Bogarts, or James Stewarts around. (nm) Patterson 13:55:38 2/25/2000 (0)
