More on INDY 4!!!
Harry here... Stuntmen... Props... Locations... Other production parts that I can't talk about, but that I've been contacted by all saying they are gearing up for a Summer start. Lies? We'll have to wait and see, but there is an awful lot of talk about production movement on this one. We'll see...
Dear Harry,
Just thought Id send you this little tidbit of info about 'Indy 4'. On
Saturday 11th May, I met Pat Roach signing his autobiography, in
Wolverhampton, UK. If you are a keen Indiana Jones fan, you'll remember Pat
from the awesome air-field fistfight (Pat was the bald german beefcake) in
'Raiders', and he also played the big, bad indian warrior dude from the
unforgettable conveyor-belt fight in 'Temple of Doom'. Pat has done a lot
here in the UK, from a wrestler, to an actor in one of the most successful
UK drama series' ever made ('Auf Weidersehen Pet') as well as appearing in
Conan, Bond, etc.
Pat was a very polite guy, friendly, and came across as a gentle-giant type
of guy. Anyways, I was chatting to him about his Indy days, nearly getting
his head chopped off by Arnie in Conan 2, among other things. Pat said he
would most likely be in Indy 4, if indeed it goes ahead with Harrison
managing to keep the role (he and Pat have kept in touch). Yay! Hopefully,
we will be treated with yet another incredible climatic fight, that will
remain imbedded in cinematic history.
John.And then there is this....
Hey Harry,
Inspired by all the Indy 4 rumors as of late, I was browsing through one of the indy fan site forums (indyfan.com to be exact) and came across this rather interesting yet hilarious (if true) scoop. I don't know the person who posted this, but he appears to be involved with indygear.com. A site that chronicles the creation of all Indy's equipment and more. As you will read he was tipped off by a source from Indy 4's Prop Department. No whip, no Indy! Strange rumblings? Yes sir!
"Well this is certainly good news. I have verified from a direct source that took the call from the Prop Department. The prop department is in full action stocking for the necessary items for Indy IV. They were pretty clear who they were and what they wanted as far as quantity and pricing for the quoted gear.
In addition the prop people did disclose that they have enough whips with cables (stunt whips), but are totally out of regular whips. No surprise there since some of these whips went to Spielberg, Lucas, Ford and the various other stunt guys. Also the prop people mentioned that there will be more scenes that call for the whip.
In addition to the post below about film locations here in desert southwest, they are also looking at jungles in either South America or SouthEast Asia."- Sergei@indygear.com.

I hope they do a great job with this film, and these rumours are actually true

All you Indy doubters going on saying "Ford is too old!" will be eating your own words when Ford shows you how much ass he can still kick! Just prepare yourselves!!!

C'mon... it's LucasFilm, Kingdom of the Greenscreen and Empire of CGI. You know it's gonna be true.

Just saw a story on the net about how Harrison Ford must've gotten a fetish for skeletons while filming all of the Indy movies. Wanna know why? BECAUSE HE'S DATING CALISTA FLOCKHART! No shit... http://www.cnn.com/2002/SHOWBIZ/News/05/16/cel.ford.flockhart/index.html

I'll buy this when I see an official announcement.

IGN Reports Frank Darabont who once worked on young Indiana Jones Chronicles might be writing the script. All of these reports are interesting but there is no way this thing will start filming anytime soon. Not only is there no script but I read that Harrison Ford already has several projects lined up. I'm hoping they can start filming next year but it seems that things might not seriously get underway until Lucas finishes Ep3. God I hope that isn't the case. I thought Spielberg said he was gonna tackle Indy 4 after Catch Me If You Can which just recently wrapped. There's no way he's waiting until 2005 and Lucas finishes Ep3, but who knows? They can probably get a script written and ready to shoot next year at the earliest but it ain't happening this year. I'd sure love to be proven wrong though.

Bearing in mind that up to now even the worst Indy movie (Temple of Doom) has kicked major ass it is hard to see how this movie can go wrong. Hopefully they will get Connery back although considering that he is playin the father of a sixty year old it will probably be a cameo. Sallah must also return. When you say not in the 1950s I'm a bit confused, when the hell else are they going to set it. They can hardly pretend that Indy is the same age as in the other ones. He'll just have to be up agains the communists instead of the Nazis. What about gining Indy a son. That would be original. I can justy imagine a paternal Ford wincing at the dangerous stuff his son is doing and setting the wrong example by doing exactly the same stuff himslef

Whoopie. Old Indiana Jones. Whoopie. I still like the talkbacker's idea about making it a tri-generational story involving Indy's son. And keep Connery down to a dull roar in this one, as another talkbacker suggested. How about Chunk from THE GOONIES as Indy Jr.? He can yell "Hey you guys!" as he rides into battle.

Ilove indy dont get me wrong those films are up there with star wars. But plz why the fuck do a 4th 1? Indys about fuckin 60 now it will be shit. They should leave indy alone so we can remeber him as a young guy not soem old basterd hopeing for the good old days
-
Harrison Ford is too friggin old to play Indiana Jones in a manner that we have come to expect our hero to be portrayed. All you Indy IV whores: Silence! It won't feckin work!
-
a 60 year old indy? even with botox, you are still getting a 50 year old indy at best. how are they gonna pull it off, and speaking of old folks homes, how is arnuld gonna do a believable T3 with the way he looks now? people will still go see both movies i am sure, but it's quite sad when you think about it. about the only believable bad mutha out there now is Mr XXX, and maybe THE ROCK, and that' not good for action flix aficionados..
personally, i choose XXX, he's got such a screen presence and that evil voice and smile, but, he needs to shoot up more roids to get to arnies level...
