I have to leave like right now, so I'll find the link when I get home tonight, but I'm pretty sure he declined, saying that retirement was just "too much damn fun."

did Connery actually decline a camo, or was that just an Internet rumor...?

I think I remember reading that he said (ie, don't trust this) that if anything would tempt him to come out of retirement, it would be this. And later that he was tentatively offered the part, considered it, and declined.

What's with all the Temple of Doom hate? I like Temple of Doom. I mean, it's not as well made as the other two, but I'll be darned if it isn't the most quotable.

Anyways, as for the Crystal Skull, I'm cautiously pessimistic. I'll be thrilled if it turns out to be good, but I'm going to assume that it's going to suck so that I'm not disappointed.

Isn't he like 65 or something right now? I must give him credit for looking way younger.

I think this would be a bad time to confess the only Indy movie I've watched was The Temple of Doom. It put me off about looking for his other movies. If this one goes well I shall correct that.

Yeah, Temple of Doom definitely isn't the first Indy movie you want to watch. It's movie where you say, "Ok. That was kinda weird, but it's Indy so it's awesome!" Whereas if you see it first, you don't know that Indy is awesome, so you can't say that.

Oh man, no. No no no no no. The Indy character works mostly just because it's played by Harrison Ford. Take "Raiders of the Lost Ark", for example. Any other actor would have just gone along with the script and had a huge sword fight with Nameless Arab Goon #16. Sure, it would have probably been quite energetic and the audience would have enjoyed it, but it would have been forgotten fairly quickly by the world at large.

Meanwhile, Harrison Ford decides he doesn't feel like it and asks if he can just shoot the guy, and Lucas goes with that instead. Instant movie gold.

Harrison Ford saves George Lucas movies. I mean, he's probably the main reason the Star Wars movies were good.

What's funny about the 'just shoot the guy' scene is that it pissed the swordsman off that he didn't get his fight scene, yet it was more memorable because of that.

So in a strange way, he got what he wanted.

Its been nicknamed the Crazyswordsman Scene And its stated that he had the flu at the time and he could barely stand. so he improved instead of following Lucas
(note you have to re watch the movie to see this clearly)

hes sweating and is pail and he locks like he would throw up in the begining
