Clint Eastwood still makes a good action hero, and doesn't shy away from age issue

I think it would only add to the story. A 60 year old Indy can still be fit. After all, his "dad" went along for the adventure last time and did just fine. I can just see Indy doing some stunt and mumbling, "This would have been a lot easier 30 years ago." or the classic line, "I'm getting too old for this!"

Part of Indy's charm is that he does get hurt and sore, but he keeps going. I can just see Indy being some venerabe professor, and some great quest drags him out into the field again. I think it would be cool.

As someone else pointed out, "It's not the years, it's the mileage."
