How Harrison Ford ruined 3 movies (Including this one)


Indiana Jones 4
Star Wars (Force Awakens)
and now Blade Runner 2049

He's not dynamic enough, the scenes and plot with Dekard wasted too much film and space.

The film should of revolved around the other lead characters more dynamically.

It was slow and plodding enough. The dynamics should of evolved with other characters, the hologram, jared leto ,etc.....oh well......

BR2049 is a great film, but it would have been a masterpiece if the Deckard storyline had been eliminated and Jared Leto had been recast. Otherwise it’s pretty much the sci-fi film I’ve waited my entire life to see in the theater.

He seemed tired and sleepy here.

But, he was the ONLY one even trying in that awful Indy 4 trainwreck.

And, I thought he was fine in "Force Awakens."

The guy is past his prime at this point, but did what he could in most of these.

"2049" was SO BAD that the greatest actor ever, in his prime, could never have brought this turkey back from the dead.

You're very young, aren't you, Wayne.

First, I think this film is great. Harrison's a bit tired looking, but that's okay. He's playing a really old guy.

But those movies weren't ruined by Ford, that implies that without Ford they would have been good or great. They were DOA from trying to flog a dead franchise into coughing up more moolah long after its demise.

Heck, with Indy and Star Wars, I'd say they'd been dead long, long ago. Star Wars made a trilogy of great stories and after that it's been a flatline. As for Indiana, I love the first one, HATE the second, and think Sean Connery is fun in an otherwise dull third. Haven't seen number four for some reason...

Indian Jones 4 failed because Shpeeelburg didn't explain the refrigerator effect properly.
