: : : Patrick Stewart is a good choice. C. Heston would be too old for the part of Abner if his daughter is Marion. If Indy is in his early to mid 20's when he meets Abner, then Marion would be 15-17 years old. C. Heston is in his 70's or 80's., this would be way to old for marions father. That is why Patrick Stewart is good. His age is ideal.

: Hey now, be kind. "Apes" is a classic! One of my favorites.

I'm not making fun of the movie, I'm meant the line saying "Get your paws off me you damn dirty Nazis" was corny. Sorry for the mixup.
