He is a joke as actor. Hence why I didn't watch Indiana Jones, or anything else for that matter with him in it.
If they go with someone else I may watch it.

Don't worry, it will not happen. Spokesman said that while he cannot talk for Scott, if being asked himself (this spokesman), he would say No to whether or not they would approach Ford.
Ford agrees on your assessment of his acting skills, btw, having said repeatedly that he never saw himself as a great actor, and wonders why he has made a career like his in the business. He also says he thinks it is only because people simply like him and the figures he plays. I like to see Ford very much, but also never claimed he is a great actor. But he is ideal for the figures he usually plays and calls to live. He is more a type than an actor. And when the perosn playing a role matches the role, than I do not care wehther that is due to acting skill, or matching typology - it simply matches nevertheless. That'S true for Han Solo. For Indy Jones. And I think also for Rick Deckard.
It'S not rare with "actorsd" to be like this, at least in the movie business. Sean Connery also is not really an acting actor, imo, but he has charisma and it is just enough for him to be seen in the scene, and immediately he dominates it, by his mere presence. Acting has little to do with it, in a technical understanding. Seen that way, Connery is an actor whpo simply does not need to act at all. If he could if he would need, I just don'T know, and do not care.
I also like Ford'S grounded attittude on things in a business where he has cult star stus and earns millions. In a world of hysterics and narcissistics and wannabe-stars and three fourth insanes, he has shown sympathetic calmness and groundedness.
Can one say that: groundedness?
