Witness, easily.

In terms of pure entertainment spectacle, either The Fugitive or Air Force One. Performance-wise, though, I'd pick Witness.

PenguinInfinity · 09-26-2019, 12:37 AM

So there being 2 Blade Runners makes it a franchise? But the 2 Fugitive movies (The Fugitive & U.S. Marshals) are not a franchise?

He wasn't in both of them.

And, since I'm the creator of this poll, I get to make the rules

Basically I wanted to weed out the typical fanboy answers.

Witness

Elgie · 09-26-2019, 04:30 AM

I voted The Fugitive and I haven’t seen witness yet but if you guys haven’t seen Frantic, you should because Ford is incredible in that.

hasslein · 09-29-2019, 05:23 AM

I like Force Ten From Navarone more than any listed... Also Hanover Street, The Frisco Kid, Heroes and The Conversation....

I'm hoping WAC will release The Frisco Kid. Saw it on TCM a few years ago, for the first time in a very long time, and it's such a delightful charming little movie. Ford and Gene Wilder are great together.

I wouldn't call The Conversation or Heroes a Harrison Ford movie. The others were initially on the list but I figured I would cut it down. I honestly didn't think anyone else had seen them other than me. I really wish Hanover Street would get a blu release.

I thought about that, but American Graffiti is on the list, I haven't seen it in a while, but from what I remember his screen time is about the same...

MifuneFan · 10-01-2019, 12:56 AM

From what I've seen, it's between The Fugitive (which I voted for) and Frantic. I'm pretty sure I've seen Witness, but I can't remember it all that well.

jess1581 · 10-01-2019, 12:59 AM

Whew, tough one. Chose Witness, but The Fugitive was close... though isn't U.S. Marshalls technically a sequel to that film?

Ok, I'm splittin hairs.

MifuneFan · 10-01-2019, 01:03 AM

Wait till you guys find out they made another American Graffiti too

AaronJ · 10-01-2019, 08:20 AM

Oh, oops, I missed the whole "non-franchise" part of this. And I picked OTHER, as in Blade Runner.

Hmm, I can't change my vote, but I do need some OTHER choice now. I need to think of what to go with, now.

drush9999 · 10-04-2019, 03:52 PM

Had to go with The Fugitive, I love how he can switch between vulnerable and angry in movies, and he had it perfected here.

Witness, Frantic and Air Force One were close runners up

Dr Lenera · 10-04-2019, 11:18 PM

Went for Witness. Though I did really like his turn in What Lies Beneath. And being as I have a liking for '40s-style war torn romances, I have a great fondness for Hanover Street.
