The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Harrison Ford is making the rounds on television for the opening of the new Indy movie..
It always amazes me that more than a year after they actually make the movie, and have long since moved on and possibly even made other movies, that they are now expected to remember things about something they did so long ago, and act like it was “just the other day”.
I realize most actors have excellent memories.. I mean lets face it they are continually memorizing lines and actions for the movie. But after you’ve read more scripts that are offers for other movies that they must get, and possibly have made yet another movie, (memorizing all the things they need to for that movie) then they are expected to forget that newest one and remember the old one. The funny part is that sometimes an interviewer is actually surprised that they might not remember everything... hello? And what were YOU doing a year ago?? Heh.
On GMA this morning Harrison used the whip… He talked a little about being out of practice and how the “whip master” taught him to use it.. I think what I love most about Harrison, is that he never seems to be egotistical! Well, that and the fact that he’s still gorgeous, *grin.
Next he appeared on Regis and Kelly, where they talked about the fact that one day Harrison flew himself to where filming was by Helicopter. ( ahhh, ok Harrison I’ll go quietly! Fly me to the moon baby!! Woohooo!)
With just a little bit of luck… ok.. more than a little bit of luck.. I MIGHT be able to go see the movie today (Friday). If that doesn’t pan out it will be a week from Saturday before I can go…but you can bet that I don’t want to miss this movie!!
I Love the reluctant hero.. I love Indy.. and I love Harrison for doing them so well…and I believe my “actor crush” is deserved because I truly believe Harrison is one of the good guys.

Your enthusiasm for this movie has made even me impatient to see it (winks)...but then again that makes you an excellent writer. (Hugs) Indigo

I have a prancing 20 something behind me who is trying to line up a friend to go see this right now. He's been hanging on since they announced they were making this movie. I won't do it this week or even next weekend. Hopefully something during the following week we'll go. Can't wait.
Harrison Ford looks a little like my older brother.

I'm hoping that nothing else pops up between now and our day off on Wed.... I sooo want to go and see this in the theatre. I've been going around saying 'La, La, La' and trying not to hear anything about it so I get to see it with no preconceptions... other than Harrison Ford is still yummy! LOL We don't see many movies, we usually wait for them to come out on DVD because going to the movies is EXPENSIVE, but for some we make an exception ;p

Oh, you missed him on the View this morning....they nit-picked him more than the others and he got real shy about it. Karen Allen helped him out. Perked everyone up! Annie

We took an aunt for her 72nd birthday ... her choice ... and she had never seen an action adventure film, much less an Indiana Jones film.
She loved it too! And it was really fun listening to her afterward talking about the actors, the special effects and the entertainment factor.
