But since that ugly moustachioed mush never got the job and it made the already awesome Harrison Ford into a legend in the movies, it's rather academic to keep going on about it now.
I must be correct and everyone agrees with me, seeing as I've had no replies.
He'd have made a good Indiana Jones, and today he'd be strongly identified with the role. You'd read somewhere that Harrison Ford had been considered for the role, and you'd think "no way! Ford woulda sucked!"

shareThere are those actors who are good for movies and those who are good for TV. Selleck was good for TV.
shareSaid some clown who clearly didn't watch Magnum. Lot of physical stunts in that show done by the man himself.
shareMagnum P.I. was great, my family loved that show. I did not know he did many of his own stunts but it makes sense, he appeared very fit.
He wasn't hanging off choppers or nothing, but he did many of his own falls and what not. It's clearly him in the shots, not some oaf with a fake mustache glued to his face.
shareI think Indiana Jones would have been taken more seriously as an action adventure movie had Tom Selleck played Indy. Harrison plays the role like he's a grumpy old man reluctantly going on these adventures.
shareI agree and Selleck would have been perfect for the role. The concept for Indy was inspired by Clark Gable films of the 1930s. And who in the last 50 years has been more Gable-esque than Tom?
sharemaybe if he shaved the mustache
