Happy 80th Birthday to Harrison Ford! A living legend & such an iconic actor. He puts all these younger actors to shame.

.

I really liked Mads Mikkelsen's recent glowing comments on what a badass Harrison Ford is (from the set of Indy 5).

As for how Ford, 79, has been doing since his shoulder injury on set last year, Mikkelsen praised him for being "physically" fit and resilient.

"It was the first time I met him, and he's an insanely powerful person. Not just as an actor, but physically," Mikkelsen told THR. "The first day we were shooting, it was a night shoot, then we stopped at 5 a.m. — and then he got on his mountain bike and went biking for 50 kilometers [31 miles]."

"Harrison is a monster of a man, a very nice monster," he joked.

What are your favorite Harrison Ford films?

Here are my top 5

1. Blade Runner
2. Blade Runner 2049
3. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
4. The Fugitive
5. Witness

(HM: Star Wars: Return of the Jedi ) Hey don't judge me! I actually liked those little Ewok fuckers. And seeing Han Solo interact with them was just the cherry on the top

Just about all of his late 70s and 1980s output was amazing. I liked his Jack Ryan films but he started slipping a bit in the 1990s. I did enjoy BR 2049 quite a lot.

For a time he was among my favorite actors. He’s still up there but fairly lackluster roles and/or performances in his late career kind of diminished my excitement for him in new films.

Legend! He is Indiana Jones AND Han Solo. Is there any actor in the history of Cinema who is an integral part of TWO highly successful franchises? I can’t think of another one.

I will always have a special place in my heart for Raiders of the Lost Ark. I am old enough to have watched it in theaters when it came out. I loved it so much that I went back the very next day to watch it again.

He's got some exciting stuff coming up too soon. Next summer Indiana Jones 5 is supposed to be released. He's also got 2 streaming series in the works (I'm assuming they are both intended to be limited/mini-series). Great to see him still working.

Never truly got the recognition he deserved as an actor, people were just content thinking of him as either Han or Indy. But at his peak he was pretty versatile, taking on dramas and romantic comedies with equal ease.

Raiders of the Lost Ark
The Empire Strikes Back
The Fugitive
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
Blade Runner

HM: Sabrina...not only did he take on a Bogie role, but he outshined him IMHO.

Angel's lame. His hair goes straight up and he's bloody stupid.
