5. Oh wow. Damn.

That will leave a mark here in the U.S. too because he has probably been considered the most favorite Bond. Let alone all the other stuff that he had been in over the decades. He made a big splash in the 3rd Raider's of the Lost Ark films too -

33. I never saw the latest Indiana Jones
|
but I think I read that for the most recent installment of the series - "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" (2008), Harrison Ford sortof patterned the part after Connery's depiction of Jones' father, now that the character was older. The newest installment is due out next year believe it or not!
