I like Shia. After seeing the Indy IV trailer I was surprised at how much he actually does resemble a young Harrison Ford.
Shia LaBeouf ?

He's about 10 lbs and 10 years from looking very much like Harrison circa "Raiders".

When I saw Transformers, I thought Shia's character and acting was definitely the best thing in the movie, other than the AMAZING special effects.
Shia is a plus for me in the new Indy movie. I found him an interesting and promising actor in Holes (a mediocre movie anyway) and with the years, he's sshown there's a magnetic quality about him. I also think he's growing into a very handsome man. If he continues the Indy franchise, he'll be a huge star, if he doesn't he'll probably be a huge star anyway.
Not everyone looks this great on their mugshot!

I find him to be a so-so actor that seems to pop up in a lot of movies. Honestly he's not terrible, but I kinda feel like Hollywood is trying to make more out of him than he really is.
And I know I'm in the minority of people that thought Transformers sucked, but he shares a part of my dislike for that movie. So for me, he's not necessarily a bad movie indicator, but at least an indication that the movie is trying too hard to secure the younger audiences... which usually doesn't bode well for the end product.

I thought Transformers was a horrible movie. But at the same time, I thought the special effects in it were the best I've seen since Jurassic Park.
I don't think he's "in too many movies". He's just being more noticed than before, he's a busy Hollywood actor now, like so many others, who appear in as much movies as him, or even more.

Maybe its just that 2 movies I've really looked forward to (TF and Indy) he gets popped into? But I just don't think he really adds much to a film, so maybe thats more of my issue. And maybe Irish is right and I'm just a hater
I used to feel the same way about Matt Damon, but after the Sarah Silverman video I like him a bit more.

Shia is a pompous prick. He's lucky Spielberg decided to take him under his wing. I have no expectations for this fourth Indy movie (especially since it's so unnecessary), and Shia just makes the lack of excitement even stronger.

I like Shia as a comedy actor far more than an action star.
When I hear Shia's been included in Indy 4, I have my thoughts. Why not Justine Long. Now he looks more like Harrison at a younger age than Shia ever be. Having seen Die Hard 4, Justine's would be one to look out for in the future.
Shia's good honestly, but overated IMO.
As for Harrison, I would love to see him in a couple more Indy movies and of course, more of other movies. None of my heros are younger people anyway.... ok, except Jason Bourne.

i think i've hit the generation threshold. justin (from the mac commercials) is certainly NOT an actor and matt damon is marginally better than ben afffleck, who sucks.
the bourne movies are so bad, after walking out of the movies for the first one and missing the second, i decided to watch the third and it was like an extension of the first. crapolo. christ, doesn't anyone know how to make a good movie anymore other than the cohen brothers?

So what's the deal with his role in this anyway? On wikipedia (and if you can't believe them, who can you believe?) it says that Spielberg said he isn't the son. But every other indication that I've heard seems to say he is Indy Jr.

Love him or hate him, SL is a great actor, especially when it comes to improv which works great for an Indy flick

chill man ,
whether he's good or not in indy is the topic discussion not if hes a prick or not .This thread could get closed , I opened one on the hunters lair about gary oldman and it was shut when someone said he was gay

I like Shia , I think hes a great actor whether he is pompous , comedic or whatever. I think he has very good acting skills and I look forward to see him in Indy. I remember being with my little cousins sat bored watching the disney channel and seeing him in all the shows. I would of never dreamed he would of been in some of my favorite movies. Disturbia , Transformers ( don't hate me , im a sucker for special effects , and love robots
) and probably the new Indy. He did get lucky I guess with Spielberg but I don't think he would of picked him unless he saw talent in him and I think he was right too from what I have seen so far I'm really looking forward to seeing his future performances.

I thought I was the only one who felt this way. Everyone would always tell me how bad ass the bourne movies were, so I finally bought part one cheap from a used cd trader. Yikes. The whole trilogy is just him calling various people telling them he remembers what they did. I got what I was expecting with Casino Royale though.

If you don't like the Bourne movies, wtf you went and watch the 3rd one for? I hate Craig Daniel as James Bond. I don't farking hell go watch that ****.
But at least you are right about one thing. Ben Affleck suck ****!

the Cohen brothers just made " No Country For Old " men which is an amazing movie.
I have never watched one of the bourne movies but I have heard they are excellent , I will have to pick em up cheap on ebay.
I'm not a big Matt Damon fan though , he gets on my nerves me to the max.
I get the impression hes very cocky , although I may be mistaken completely so don't pull me up on that comment , its just that that makes me not so keen on him as an actor.

Its cool man! I think you can catch those movies on cable sometimes.
I Am ok with Matt but I just can't stand his friend, Ben Affleck. See what he did with the last Jack Ryan movie? Yipe!
I prefer Shia in comedies tho.
