Indiana Jones 4, Mad Max 4 or Die Hard 4?

For some reason I want to see a Die Hard 4 or Mad Max 4, but think Indiana Jones 4 would be a bad idea, but what does everyone else think?

Beatles or Elvis rules, you have to pick 1.

a well done Indy trumps everything on that list.

I really want to see a Die Hard 4 while Bruce Willis isn't too old.

I could live without a new Mad Max, but I'd almost definately go to see it.

I'd see all 3, but in order:

1. Indy
2. Die Hard
3. Max

i went with indy but wouldn't be against any of them. all three leading men are looking pretty aged right about now though. i'm thinking of the pic of bruce on the poster of the whole ten yards and not seeing a whole lot of action coming out of the poor guy anymore.

Are we imagining Samuel L Jackson is returning for Die Hard 4?

I'll pick it either way...but I'd just like to know :P

How about neither of the three. Leave Indy at the trilogy mark, Mad Max 4 has some potential but I think Mel is done being an actor, and DH4-just why?

Why run these franchises into the ground? All three of the actors are nearing 60.

Beyond Thunderdome was a little weak, granted. But get Eric Bana, give a little back story and start the movie off with the battered and aging Gibson admonishing his son on the ways of the world as he lies dying from natural causes (after all even the supreme survivor must eventually succumb).

Go from there!

I guess Indy 4 would be the best pick for me.

Die Hard and Mad Max have had their missteps. I'd rather see a new one of those rather than bother with the Indy trilogy which is 3 for 3.

I'd go for Mad Max myself.

I'm a little concerned at what a new Indy movie would be like with Ford, and a new Die Hard movie...well, I guess it's kind of irrelevant really. John McTiernan just has lost his ability as a director it seems with Rollerball and 13th Warrior, and I'd rather not have one of the new wave action directors do it and make it Michael Bay's Die Hard.

Now George Miller...I'd love to see him tackle another Max movie. As much as I love Indy, I think this one would have the greatest potnetial to be a seriously great movie. I don't discount Indy, but who knows.

Gotta go with Indy.


As far as Die Hard 4, if Bruce Willis actually dies with an erection at least he will live up to the franchise title

I don't want to see a 60 year old Indy.
DIE HARD 4 should have Muslium terrorists or don't make the movie.
It would be nice to see what happened to Mad Max.

I voted for Die Hard 4 but thinking about it Mad Max 4 would be better since both Indy and Die Hard have box sets out and I really don't want to repurchase either of them to include a new movie (although w/ Indy I guess I could just dump the 2nd one ).

I'll take a Spielberg/Ford combo over the other 2 any day of the week.

I'm not sure Jesus would be down with Mel doing a new Mad Max, so I'd go with Indy 4, though with Lucas on board, and the quality of the new Star Wars films,...ehHhhHh...I might like to preserve what fond memories I have of the series as they stand instead of having them tarnished. Perhaps a Mad Max vs. The Christ's Passion or Indiana Jones and the Crusade for the Lost Star Wars Prequels?

I think Ford & Willis both still have enough gas for their sequels. I would love to see either one. No more "safe" Euro-trash villains for DH4 though.

Never liked Mad Max.

Mad Max. Old and cragly works for Mad Max...plus the last movie was kind of a lowpoint, so it wouldn't be screwing anything up.
