INDY
True.
Indy displayed verve, passion, and strength but also had human vulnerability.
Leslie Schain
Ultimate adventurer
True. World traveler, explorer, procurer of antiquities but with a conscience, and a sense of right and wrong.
False
Harrison Ford is… Indy, Han, Jack Ryan, you name it sister.
Indiano Jones
Indiana Jones is the ultimate adventurer. No matter what comes his way, he handles it with calm, cool, and collectedness. I want to go on one of his adventures.
Ultimate Avenger
Indiana Jones to me is the best because of the reality factor. TOdays big adventure movies often rely on gadgets or even supernatural powers while Indy only had a whip or a gun. He fought, raced around, saved the innocent all by using nothing more than his imagination and skill. Simply outstanding. I was there when it first premiered and i would love to be there now!! i could never get enough of Henry Walton Jones, Jr./INDIANA JONES!!!
LUIS SOTO

Indiana Jones
He is the first major character who started the trend(Tomb Rider, national Treasure,The Mummy,…).And that whip…
