Okay, So Now He's Taking His Dad, His Son, His Hat, His Whip, Back Ointment, A Handful Of Adult Diapers... And Cate Blanchett?!
Ahhhh... lovely Cate.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Cate Blanchett has signed to star in THE CURRENTLY UNTITLED FOURTH ADVENTURE OF INDIANA JONES WHICH IS NO LONGER A TRILOGY. I guess that pretty much wraps up the debate about whether they were still planning to use Marion Ravenwood as the female lead, as she was in several of the drafts.
Interesting choice. It’ll be more interesting once we start to piece together an overall picture of what this film’s about, but for now, casting’s going to have to be enough to keep us talking.

This TB is going to explode.... What shall be talked about besides this great casting! Some Shia Lebouf, Michael Bay, I'm sure someone will mention tons of stupid titles, George Lucas sucking...
-
just kidding. But blanchett? Hmmm. I'm intrigued. she's fantastic.
-
KERCHING!
-
Harrison Ford's old age... More foolish indiana jones titles, more damning of michael bay... Someone will have a sudden urge to EAT!
-
Cate Blanchett is wonderful. Now I will resign from this talkback and let all the complainers bitch about it.
-
Off to my humble abode.... It's been a long day... Can't wait to read the insults whenever I wake up... LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!
-
Or just a movie with two sequels?
-
I'm so tired of those lame Indy title posts that I hereby vow to violently fistfuck the first person that pops up in this talkback with the sole intent of putting up 900 stupid fake titles.
Excuse me while I slip on this spiked glove... -
Almost had it... Brother.........
-
Let's talk about the possibility of this indie film being possibly good? We get so down on it for lots of the weird choices going on, but I usually try to give the beard some benefit of the doubt.
-
Marion is fantastic in Raiders, great chemistry between them and a perfect foil for Indy.
I would have really liked to have seen them try and bring back some things that made each movie great, like Marion, Short Round, Dad, and the cool Salla from Raiders, not the bumbling buffoon Salla from Crusade.
Whatever, this better be fucking good. -
You know it's gonna happen... Shall we give it what... 10, 20 minutes tops?
-
Awesome. I imagine it's almost like summer in serenity suddenly beating the poop out of an army of reevers.
-
agree with you, and hope for no more jew bashing.. i just want to know who will be the first retard that will insult lucas or spielberg though.... oh and for the record, damn you michael bay!!!!!
-
for an indie film. "Indiana Jones & the curse of the Liver Spots". Do your worst Mori; I'm in sunny Milton Keynes. If you can reach me from the Labs then God help us all.
-
this movie continues to keeps me interested.. i love kate blanchet, and i would love to know what part will she be playing
-
Indiana Jones and the Senior Assisted Living Center. Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Sizzler.Indiana Jones and the Last Bowel Movement.
-
Indiana Jones And The Enchanting Tree Elf.
-
Please give the same treatment to the first person who says something akin to "Damn you, the flaming nipples on cate gotta eat first!"
-
anyone read that thing about Transformers getting an R from the MPAA, Bay not wanting to cut it and Spielberg pretty much got it PG13 with a phone call? I find this c-level fascinating
-
...playing the part she did in The Talented Mr. Ripley and totally getting under Indy's nerves. Her voice alone causes him to dump her, so Shia gets all the nookie.
-
is older than harrison ford, in wrinkle years. no offense to her, but there was no way she was gonna get into this movie as a realistic love interest.or maybe they saw her on Toback's piece of boringness, When Will I be Loved?also, cate blanchett is the most gorgeous creature on earth...well, maybe except for claire forlani...I would watch her do the river dance in extreme slow motion while drooling guacamole...(and I HATE guacamole)
-
Is really perfect casting. I could see her fitting right in with the movies, and she is an amazing actress. I am a little confused by the surge of stardom they are throwing into this. Its going to seel easily, and it almost feels a little too star-heavy to me. BUt it's Indiana Jones, so how could they go wrong.
-
Or maybe he'll have a sword cane. Old men with sword canes = your ass handed back to you.
-
I'm kidding. If you have nothing else in your life than making a list of 8000 variations on INDIANA JONES AND THE OVERFULL COLOSTOMY BAG, knock yourself out.
-
Way to be a tease.
-
Although to be really anal about it, it's really a movie with a prequel and a sequel - not the most conventional "trilogy"
-
DOH!
-
...If they can't have Marion, this is a good 2nd choice. Although, I worry a bit that the film will suffer from the fact that the female lead is so famous. I don't believe that in any of the other Indie movies the females were known names. Heck, it wasn't until Crusade that there was a big celebrity in ANY of the roles, male or female, besides Ford.
-
I just have to complain about the fact that Connery is even in this at all. One thing I like about the Indie films is that they all have their own unique flavor. The recurring cast members strategy feels more like a sitcom. By bringing back Connery, they're going the Lethal Weapon route, which kept bringing back Joe Pesci as the new Kramer, for no apparent reason other than the fact that he was wacky and the audience liked him.
-
Gentlemen, this franchise opportunity MUST BE PRESERVED! Dump everything we have into it.
-
Doesn't anyone remember how perfect she was in the first one? The chemistry between her & Ford was incredible. Who else could Indy end up with? And to the people complaining about her age, please give it a rest. She still looks great: http://tinyurl.com/25llkjI also think that Connery should not be in this at all. He's a great actor, of course, but his presence really seemed to neuter Indy in the third film and the whole thing got a little too slapstick. Maybe if he just puts in a quick cameo appearance or something.

You've gotta have a reasonably younger female, 'cause..
by alucardvsdracula
It'd be like a geriatrics convention: you got ol man Ford, even older Connery already, if you were to add Marion and god help us Willy Scott it'd be like Last of the Summer Wine - sorry, yanks that's an English joke: a BBC comedy show which has been running for about 30 years where a group of OAP's get into stupid adventures each week... hang on a minute has George been watching any of these I wonder....?
-
... First of all, thanks for being so polite. I like how my relatively benign post seemed to have sent you into a rage for no apparent reason. ("you stupid fuck?" Jeez.).... Second of all, those others you mentioned were supporting players that had very limited screen time. However, Connery was basically the second lead of Crusade. I don't mind if they bring lead actors back in sequels, if that's the standard set up by the series. (Like in Star Wars.) But to do it in the Indie films (with Connery) at this late date (the 4th movie) feels inconsistent with the rest of the series.
-
Cate Blanchett is great, and I'm all for her having a part in the movie, but Marion Ravenwood has got to be "Mrs. Indy."
-
I think they should take the "Marion Ravenwood died in childbirth" route, so we still get to think "well, at least they got back together!" and we know that the awesome Ravenwood / Jones Archeology D.N.A. has created Indy's son, thus making him the ultimate action hero.
-
"Dokka Jones, Dokka Jones! You didn' eat your pureed spinach!""Who ARE you?!?!?"
-
I'm talking about Mr. Damn You Michael Bay. I figure that after getting his message across in the FIRST! post of the last TINO thread (Quint's?), well what more could a talkbacker want? It was the coupe de grace and piece de resistance of his existence combined. It was absolutely perfect and untoppable.
-
Off topic, yes, but I'm 1 billion times more excited about that than I am about Indiana Jones and the Vaporware Sequel. I do love Cate however and want to have sex with her.
-
Much appreciated.
-
Right?
-
E.T. is in this, right?
-
she can pull off the snappy, period dialogue like a real dame. just so long as she don't go overboard, like she did with Hepburn in the Aviator.
-
just like Lethal Weapon 4
-
make it more like Raiders and Temple and less like Crusade. But I reckon Spielberg's glory days are long gone. Whatever, at least Blanchett looks like she walked right out of the 40s/50s. Good casting.
-
I have no real problem with Blanchet, She's pretty, she's a good actress. I'm also waiting on this one, I don't think you should underestimate the power of the beards.
But if they had Karen Allen in I think that'd work well with the whole Everyone is getting older thing. Indy has never been a superhero you've always seem him get beat up so I can't imagine they'd gloss over the fact of how old he is, how old everyone is now. This could of been a great meditation on growing old. -
I'm not a big fan of hers. She's always good in the role she plays but never truly memorable. Her films are okay but there's not a single Cate Blanchett film in my collection.
-
heh-heh. Sorry, couldn't resist. *OUCH* that hurt, Mori! Oh, and just because Cate's cast doesn't mean SHE isn't Marion; Hollywood's all about casting younger women and older men, so what makes you think they'd use 56 year-old Karen Allen as a female romantic lead for Indiana Jones? (only if she's gonna be his mother) I'm just saying...
-
I live in London. I’ve seen Inland Empire. It is the most excruciatingly bad piece of shit ever made. It’s painful. It was torture. Nothing happens or makes any sense, on video, shifting in and out of focus because it’s set to ‘auto’. Laura Dern walks around looking confused in dark corridors while Polish people talk nonsense is completely unrelated scenes. I fell asleep twice. IT’S 3 HOURS LONG! Art students and pretentious film snobs/bores loved it though so it must be good.
-
Cate Blanchett is incredible (both looks-wise and acting-wise). So at least Spielberg and Lucas are attracting talent to this film. I'm still not sure how I feel about Indy having a son, but Cate Blanchett will fit into this film universe - it just feels right.
-
She isn't 25 anymore, that much is true. But I met her last year, and I have to say for her age she looks great. Can you guys try to bear in mind that Ford is 65 this year? He doesn't have to go out with a 2c piece of trailer park trash like Jessica Simpson just because she's in her 20s. Let Indy stick with a woman closer to his own age. I would seriously be surprised at Spielberg (fuck Lucas) if he doesn't work Marion in there somewhere - and lets not forget that Blanchett doesn't HAVE to be his love interest either. They have said nothing about her role.

Indiana Jones and the Extremely Long and Boring Story About Some Bullshit That Happened Back In Aught-Six
-
earlier this week and he said that Variety was wrong and he is definately not attached to Indiana Jones. I'm not spouting hopeful fanboy nonsense, as I am one of the few people who didn't care that he was in this, one way or the other. Just trying to find out if it's true or not. ---- I couldn't find the actual interview, but I found this little article: http://www.darkhorizons.com/news07/070309k.php
-
oh wait...thats the real title...hard to tell with all these joke ones put up
-
Wives, sons... what has Junior done to be punished so cruelly? Will Spielberg replace the whip with a walkie talkie? Will George once again succumb to fandolts and expand the role of a previously tertiary, worthless background character?
-
Combined with Moriarty's promise in the first section of this talkback, that puts you in great danger!
-
...Indiana Jones and the Arthritic Entity! And I, like 'brokentusk', am extremely happy that the delectable Cate Blanchett is in this motion picture. She brings a certain amount of reassurance and respectability to roles she happens to appear in - she is indeed a great actor. Her inclusion is a sign that the producers are taking this motion picture seriously... I believe the U.S. expression for promising news such as this is, "It's all good"? However the just and right thing to do is to allow Mr Jones end up with the equally wonderful Ms Ravenwood, who incidentally is looking quite stunning these last days. And please Mr Star Wars, a resounding 'NO, to the SHORT-ROUND for he is indeed deeply vexing! 'Hail!’ to the one who follows the afore-mentioned instructions!
-
For instance, Spielberg could curse us all and insist upon bringing his wife's character back for this film.
-
(Son of Rene. Now adult, he shows up with vengeance in his eyes. What an original and clever plot that would be!)
-
I'll happily accept Shia as a son, Blanchett as a bimbo mistress, and even Mola Ram Junior, if only Spielberg and Lucas make a scene that cancels the horrific opening of "Crusade" - that whole "Teendy" garbage, where he does everything short of screwing a teenage Marion Ravenwood and stealing ancient candy from a French exchange student named Belloq... ugh.
-
I noticed that (or at least it seemed like) AICN just took the article down that said that he was... y'know instead of a retraction of any sort. Pretty funny with all the "we told you so" in that article.
-
...because Karen Allen refused to sleep with Spielberg back in the day and he's still bitter.
-
I hope she plays Bob Dylan in it. Hey Mori, you should take that spiked glove to a few clubs I know of. You could make some real money.
-
Alright, Moriarty. I'm ready for it. I'll take mine on the chin. But is there any chance you can be gentle?
-
Cate: you're slumming in this movie.
-
There Moriarty, I went there. Wait a second while I lube up...
Seriously though, I don't see the need for another Indy film, but will be there opening day. -
i'm calling this film is just meant to be a cash cow--but i'll see it anyway. lucas and speilberg have straight up lost their kahoozies.
-
That is the real title the old one being Indiana Jones and the City of the Gods! The plot is about Atlantis I guarantee you I am right. When the title and plot are announced you will see that I am right.
-
If you don't know who she is, I guarantee that you will after you see her picture! HHHHHOT! Just look her up at www.imdb.com or something.
-
i would like to do things.

Cate would fit perfectly in the Indy universe and I hope they ditch Shia as Indys son and go with Cate as the tag along.I also liked Indy 3 but I hope they dont use connery either,just have Indy and Cate on a Raiders Adventure.
-
Personal opinion, but I'm sick of Blanchett. Bring back Marion!!!
-
who asked is this a trilogy? A movie with 2 sequels automatically becomes a trilogy whether it likes it or not.
http://tinyurl.com/pv8do -
I just came for the fistfucking.
-
Why does anybody even like that piece of shit? When I see Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, I see the first great movie franchise completely ruined by Steven Spielberg's evil alter ego. All spunky kids and stupid jokes. Last Crusade fits much better with the original. I just pretend TOD doesn't exist, and you should too.
-
Anyone else who includes Hugh Hefner in their title gets a bonus fist, ...and he's wearing a watch.
-
bullshit. for all that Temple of Doom is cheesy, mindless action, it is tonally far closer to Raiders than Crusade is. Crusade, on the other hand, is to Raiders what Return of the Jedi is to Star Wars: going after the Grail is like going after the second Death Star, except this time with Connery in place of Ewoks. the whole tone of Crusade was set by the opening sequence that another talkbacker correctly described as 'horiffic'. in that sequence, you can see the inception of all the future stupid crap that Lucas and Spielberg would come up with, from replacing guns with walktalkies to Greedo shooting first.
-
This pretty much confirms what other posters have written, that Shia has not signed on for Indy IV:
http://snipurl.com/1d63i -
Or whatever the hell Gimli's name is...Is he going to be in it? Will we get a belching cameo from PJ? Dominic-I'm-banging-Kate-Mohoganoggin will soon be un-employed once Charlie is dead, so he might be available? Maybe Indy will find the Ring of Power and journey to a fiery volcano to destroy it. We have to work Hugo Weaving and or Christopher Lee in some how to, its now law that one of them has to be written in to every Geek-gasm trilogy.
-
The idea of Cate Blanchett and Harrison Ford in a scene gets me excited, whoever it is she's playing. Villain, [evil] daughter ...colleague...secretary...competitor...I'm bad at plot guessing (which fortunately helps against accidental autospoilage)[br]
She also seems to have that timeless quality about her that makes her that suitable to period pieces. Oh my....if the weeks ahead will go on like that...It would be cool to attach the google news feed to my brain or synapses. [br]
Can we really trust this news? -
Man that sucks, cause that was good news...

IndianaJones and the Quest for Bob Barker's Immortality
by t 1000 xp professional
Moriarty, Kill me i'm right HERE!! :::AHHNOLD voice:::
-
Shia wouldn't admit to him being in talks for Indy... You guys should know the hollywood talk by now... come on!
-
Just my opinion. I was ten when Raiders was released. To this day, that is the single greatest moviegoing experience of my life. Granted I was young and fresh and unincumbered by twenty five years of booze and bad women, but that was and is "my" movie. We all have one. My experience with Temple was very different. I could not believe what a piece of shit it was. That annoying kid, that screechy woman. What had they done to my movie? They turned it into an amusement park ride and I was pissed. Mola Ram could have ripped out a guy's heart and F*#cked his chest cavity and I still could not have cared less because Willie Scott and Short Round were there to water it all down. I wanted Nazis and wrath of god. I wanted Alfred Molina impaled on a booby trap. I wanted melting faces. I wanted an adult movie. I got Hook. I got Jar Jar. To me, TOD is the beginning of the end.
-
Sounds like Cate Blanchett has a lot of free time
-
You know that's the real title.
-
Looks like the Berg and Lucas may prove us wrong!
-
Read the news about Shia NOT being signed for Indy 4 on Dark Horizons over a week ago. I immediately thought there would some kind of retraction, or 'my bad' from Mori...but alas, non yet. If you wanna say shit like 'I TOLD YOU SO!', you better have enough balls to say 'I was wrong'.
-
Okay, I'll give you guys Trasformers. I personally can't wait to see that flick, but there's been a leaked script (early draft mind you), a couple trailers, pics, etc. That's enough to warrant some concern naysayers eyes (but judge the movie when it comes out).
But, with Indy IV you have nothing besides the fact that Harrison Ford is older. No script. Not even a story. No leaked images of Indy in space or anything like that to bitch about. So why couldn't it be great? Why not be excited that an excellent high caliber oscar winning actress is attached? Why not be pumped Spielberg is directing it, rather than some hack? Why not trust that a character so close to Ford's, Lucas', and Spielberg's heart will be handled with the utmost respect. Hey, these guys don't need the money... it's not about that for them. For the studio it is, but not for the filmmakers. AICN was wrong about Shia, as were the trades. He's not in it... at least not now. It may be a great and entertaining flick people. Try for once to have a positive reaction... for once. -
Can't wait for this one, even if it's a creakier Dr Jones this outing! ;-)
-
Ruined Notes on scandal with her overracting. Spielberg marries Demanding women. Kate capshaw demanded to be in 2nd film. Just like Amy Irving demanded a 40 million dollar. Kate capshaw doesnt seem to do very much, except by mrs Speilberg. The one movie she produced and starred in Bombed, the letter.
-
Empire's running this as a semi-official possible title. I like it. Cate Blanchett would fit right into the 50's Indy girl thing too, or make a good daughter.....hopefully not both.
-
Just because Shia denied it, doesn't mean he's telling the truth.. OF COURSE HE WOULD DENY IT...! This project is covered in secrecy...
-
Does anyone remember the Lucasarts game Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis? It was a Monkey Island-style point-and-click adventure and it was fucking excellent. Anyway, as the title suggests it involved Atlantis, I think they actually made it TO the lost city in the game.
-
Indiana Jones and the City Of Gods? What about that empireonline rumor?
-
Give me a bar fight with Harrison Ford, Sean Connery, Clint Eastwood, Roger Moore, Mark Hamill, and Arnold Schwarzenegger... and I'll be happiest man on the planet. And you may as well throw in Morgan Freeman and Gene Hackman.
-
the fact that mori first cracks some old indy joke in his headline before discriminating against fake indy titles of the same humour calibre is odd.
-
for why no retraction was given to all the "I told you so!" mess that has already been proven wrong? Looks to me like the article was simply taken down as opposed to someone pulling on man-pants and admitting that they jumped the gun.
-
You'd have better luck trying to get Harry to lose weight!
-
'sall I got.
-
To those saying "Of course he's denying it; that's how it works in Hollywood!": Not only is LaBeouf denying it, he's also suggesting the movie would be better with a daughter instead of a son, and that Natalie Portman would be great for that role. That's a bit more than just "nothing's signed yet" or even "nope, I'm not in it." Why would he potentially sabotage a chance at the role by second-guessing The Beard or Lucas? Maybe he'll end up playing Indy Jr., who knows, but his denial sounded pretty convincing to me.
-
I saw her on an episode of MONK and it wasn't too pretty.

For a second there judging by the headline I thought this might've had something to do with a remake of THE JERK.

"And we still had money left over for a soda and some cotton candy. Ah - I remember the old malt shop..."
-
Cate is HAWTTT. Even if she did pee her pants in Babel.
-
Cate's one of my favorite actresses working today, so I'm not complaining. But Virginia's definitely got her beat in the cleavage dept. Not that I go to a movie for that. Actually, Virginia can do period (at least the 50s) well.
-
but she was JUST paired up with Ford like last year wasn't she?
-
she's still hot and still old, she around still?
-
"it all depends on the script" after he did that piece of sheeeeiiiiteee LOXG.
-
Yeah, because The Avengers was some intricate characterization against a lush backdrop of multilayered subtext.Connery's made plenty of shit choices in his later years. He might as well be in this and collect the fat check while spoon feeding Sugar Smacks to the fans at the same time.
-
Indiana jones IV: The Quest For Peace.
-
Cate's confused because of an unforseen side effect of bathing in Clorox 4x daily to maintain her milklike sheen.
-
She is too young to be Harrison's love interest so I am calling gross on this.
-
That Ford didn't force ET's daddy and the Hack to put Skeletor/Calista Flockhart in this thing.
-
This is way better than those Natalie Portman rumors.... or the Shia ones.... Let's just hope they shoot ON LOCATION, and don't use digital backdrops!
-
I don't know what they'll do for this one. Make Cate the villian, then the hero. Or go the Bond route and have one woman be a villain and the other be the hero's love interest.
-
Lucas needs to make more films to feed his FAT NECK - it costs $2 Billion a year to feed that monster.
When Lucas was going on about the 'McGuffin' i'm pretty sure was referring to 'The Ark' which by some chance could be taken from the warehouse you see at the end of 'Raiders'. Because i remember seeing it the first time at the cinema and thinking 'Somebody's bound to find that some day'. -

...in just his later years? Come on now, Connery can say "it all depends on the script" as much as he wants but he's never turned down a role. Forget everything else he's ever been in and just think back on the abortion known as Highlander II. "Thish shhcript is fantashtic, where'shh my check?"
-
Lucasberg, read these boards. Read and learn.
-
1991 - Highlander 2. The Beginning of the End. Sure, the Rock was good and fun, but "First Knight"??? Yuck. So, yeah, I'm still right. He's fucking old. The 90s count as his later years.
-
But, yeah, he'll do any film if the check doesn't bounce.
-
His "later years" have been happening for so long now it just feels like a lot longer. 1991 wasn't really that long ago and yet it feels like an eternity, kind of like sitting through Highlander II, and let's not forget his $500,000 cameo in Robin Hood: Men in Costner.
-
Good choice.
I think she fits right in that Indy world. -
...what the hell's my name again?
-
You know, if they were going to replace Ford with Blanchett, that would be interesting. I think she could carry something like that and she comes off as intelligent and tough but still feminine. She kind of has something for the guys and the girls without being empty eye candy you know?
-
What is it with English actresses? Is it something in the water?
-
Eeks. I bet, when he receives a script, he shakes it like a kid shakes a birthday card to see how much money grandma sent. A check falls out, he's in the film.
-
Is 1950s America ready for Indy? I would be all over this film if they embraced the growing techno-world of the 50s. "Look at this....HIGHWAY!!!!"

Do you wanna see the fucking movie or not ? You know how old he is, you know it's not gonna be Raiders, so quite your bitching. Temple of Doom was bad, Last Crusade wasn't great, and you know damn well this one isn't gonna be very different. Especially after the prequels. So do the math people, it all comes down to this one question. Do you want to see the movie or not. If you do shut up ! If you don't shut up !
Your bad jokes are petty. -
INDIANA JONES AND THE CITY OF THE GODS is the real title...
... of Frank Darabont's discarded draft. It's not the title of whatever Nathanson and Koepp wrote. So EMPIRE's sort of right, but just behind.
And we'll see if Shia's in or not. I say he is. And if he ends up passing, but the son's in the film, then it's his own loose lips he has to blame, since the original story came from Shia himself. In several different places. -
"I bet, when he receives a script, he shakes it like a kid shakes a birthday card to see how much money grandma sent. A check falls out, he's in the film."
Classic. And painfully accurate, I'll bet. -
... we didn't take any article down about Shia and INDY. It's still there. It's just not the same day. See all those new stories?
-
is why you wasted some seconds of your life to make a comment that essentially says not to make comments.
-
Again, I repeat that I cannot stand the IRONIC IDIOCY of people who come to a DISCUSSION BOARD on a website and get all pissy, telling people to NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING.Okay, dil-hole, I'll bite the bait. Ford is too goddamn old to make this any kind of rousing adventure and it is a tad witty to envision him waiting in the car while his son does a bunch of cool stuff.This fucking film should have been made ages ago. Now, it's an obvious cash-in to help pay bills and settle debts.Last time I checked, there was a right to free speech. That means, even if you don't like what I say, I got a right to say it. So, state your opinion and be done with it and quit telling everyone else what to say or when. If this fucking site winds you up that much, go somewhere else. Somewhere with a history of warm welcomes and sunny dispositions. 'Cos it was never here, pal.I just don't get so fucking serious about movies that I forget to have a light laugh at some of the ridiculousness in even my favorite films. And this film gets more ridiculous the more we here.I'm not gonna be sold until I see footage.
-
She has this quality where I think she could be immensely likeable as Indy's successor. Ford doesn't even have charisma anymore.
-
Would have been a cool movie. Holmes would have been alive when Indy was a young man, and a pairing like that would really get Moriarty's - uh - goat.
-
probably pay for my whole family to see it (sigh)
-
This movie will rock.
-
COGs, the Darabont draft. Mmmhh. Interesting. Thank you.
-
That'd be outstanding. But probably not.

THE best working today. Speilberg and co should be down on their knees thanking their respective deities that they were able to snag her. My interest in this has risen exponentially since I would pay to see her read a phone book. Fuck you, haters! She is a pearl tossed to the swine of whiny fanboys.
-
a villain. Anyone?
-
You wrote, "this whole movie stinks of a retread anyway"
THAT is what cracks ME up about TBers like you. You have seen nothing... NOTHING... regarding what this next project will be about. No synopsis. No script review. No online script. No trailers. Not even one pic. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero. And yet you have this obvious automatic negative reaction to an upcoming movie. Thanks for proving my point for me. -
I think that's where the immediate negative reactions come regarding various franchise releases. Episode 1 was built up so damn high in expectation that when the below subpar movie came out, many TBers were all emotionally scarred. I think that was when the true AICN TALKBACK was formed. A cynical dark and lonely world where hope and magic just cannot exist.

If you pay higher prices for declining quality, that usually pisses people right off. Yeah, could be that.

From EW.COM .... "Shia LaBeouf (Male Star of Tomorrow), who had been something like the King of ShoWest, pitching three movies — the thriller Disturbia, Transformers, and Surf's Up — attempted to put a muzzle on all that chatter about him playing the whip-cracking offspring in Indiana Jones 4. "It’s a rumor," he said. "That’s it. That’s what the reality is, it’s a rumor and I’m not involved in the project, I haven’t had a conversation about it, I have no contract in front of me." Okay, but did you talk to Steven Spielberg (who has a producing hand in Disturbia and Transformers) about it? "No, we haven’t talked about it. And I’m working with him on two projects, so it would have come up. But right now it’s just a rumor that has spiraled out of control." Well, would you like to do it? "Anybody would. You know, it’s like a rumor that I started on the Internet. But it’s a rumor now." So would we be surprised if it winds up happening? "Yeah. C’mon, man, it’s crazy, it’s crazy. It’s a rumor now. But I was rumored to be in Superman as Jimmy Olsen, and that fell through. And Hayden Christensen was rumored to be in Indy and Natalie Portman was rumored to be in Indy, you know, Sean Connery. It’s just rumors. A movie of that level, it’s just the way it goes."
-
Why is his point of view superior?
-
Just for the record and maybe a simple formality but: According to Steven Awalt (spielbergfilms) and Gilles (theraider.net) Dreamworks officials are telling folks who ask about the Blanchett thing that she hasn't signed on yet. There are still negotiations going on. Will the positive feedback have any impact? I ask myself, however, if Blanchett's possible go for the role is telling us anything about its quality. Of course being in an Indy movie is a great thing for your paycheck and secures you entry in film history (even if it is as a costar in the most disappointing sequels ever). Other female stars though, didn't seem to have a choice, they were rather collected from the streets and willing to play every screamish. Not so Cate Blanchett. With her addition comes the idea of an interesting character (which my simple mind seems to equal with evil) in context of ....an indeed great script that can be more than the foundation of a let down? If Blanchett would really do it I found it cool if something aside from her paycheck and career politics motivated her to say yes. A great 21st Century old Indy (B-Movie) script.
Good night. -
Set it in the mid 50s, Have Indy searching for Atlantis. etc. This "could" work.
-
phaedrus, I hope for their own sanity that most people here are not just reading AICN and regard it as some kind of supersource, as well as I hope that people don't only gather their daily political and other misc news from one source (newspaper/newscast) and deem it as pure fact. Still, I gotta be thankful for EW and you posting their (this quote has actually been on many other places as it probably was a junket quote) stuff as I now know that LaBeouf is indeed the Male Star of Tomorrow. Thank you. ...good night
-
She would kick major ass as a Marion Ravenwood type. (INDY: You remind me so much of your mother. You're as big a pain in the ass as she.) Gee, who could be her mother? hehehehe.....
-
I'd love to read that script he seemed to pour his heart into.
-
is like a TV movie compared to Temple of Doom. Temple of Doom is shot beautifully, is great fun, has mood, atmosphere and one of the greatest last 30 minutes in the history of the cinema. Spielberg stages some amazing sequences and setpieces and was clearly still vicariously in love with moviemaking. Whereas Last Crusade is a tawdry copy of Raiders, complete with religious artifact, Nazi's and Denholm Elliot and John Rhys-Davies turning serious chracters into caricatures of themselves. I really don't understand how anyone with a working grasp of what makes great cinema could place Last Crusade above Temple of Doom. Saddling Jones with his dad was funny for 10 minutes and then just rubbish as he was turned into a stooge for the lamo Connery jokes for the rst of the picture. Please Spielberg, watch Raiders and Temple and see where the real Indiana Jones magic is and avoid Crusade. Sadly I fear he will do just the opposite. Jones hould come back as a grizzled old Eastwood-style adventurer, not as a family man and comedy device. I live in hope.

actually I don't have anything to say to you that supes and Yack haven't already said, I just wanted to join in the fun.
-
? An Indy/Transformers crossover flick? Indiana Jones vs. Transformers? Has Spielberg lost his mind? Who will Shia side with?
-
Yeah, it's always fun isn't it. Hey, I'm not trying to control anything. Just speaking my mind and trying to understand people's point of view. No different than Yack or Superninja or whoever. It's funny... reading other TBs and seeing Yackbacker post longer ones than I do, and more frequent, ripping on people who don't agree with him, etc.... and then he comes back and says he's sick of me and that I'm trying to control a talkback. Look in a mirror. Fact is, we all have strong opinions and we will all (and always have) voice them no matter what. Nothing wrong with that. Yack, Supes, or whoever is just as "guilty" as I am. Problem is, I'm the minority in my viewpoint here at AICN. Sorry for having a positive outlook on a movie.
-
Last Crusade was "meh". Anyone who disagrees is just the kind of ass who wouldn't throw Indie the whip, even after he threw you the idol. You deserved to be skewered by by the light-triggered spear system. Lame-o.
-
But I'm going to be a hater on Indy 4 with no Karen Allen. It needs to have Karen Allen, and when the first run into each other, Karen Allen has to sock him so hard his dentures come out, just for old time sake. Then, whatever douche bags are after Indy now show up and burn down her bar. It'll rock.
But seriously: no Marion, it'll be "meh". Let's just hope there's a cameo by Magnum P.I. -
We don't know at this point, if Cate is playing either a love interest, or a female villain character. They should definitely bring back the Marion character and since they're currently getting actors to sign on for the cast, if an announcement isn't made about Karen Allen by the end of next month, then Marion obviously isn't in it.
-
"The gun is good. The penis is evil. The penis shoots seeds."
-
flames on yack!Ha! Yack is always diplomatic, even when he overdoses on medicine. Indy 4 will probably end up being so-so. I do not think the fun can be captured once again. Cate is an interesting choice, though one that I think will not swing the movie one way or another.
-
gobs of money he's rolling in!No problem dude. I prefer Cate as an all-powerful ring wielding elf queen who can dominate my ass any day of the week.
-
Digging for the truth behind where Bernstein dug up Indy's hat. Probably from the long wrinkled mummy of Harrison Ford and his equally dessicated girlfriend.
-
Yet I somehow feel very little enthusiasm for this project. Perhaps it's all of the false starts. Personally, I'd recast the role and reboot the entire series with a new Indy.
-
I guess you've never seen anything outside of her U.S. films and maybe Elisabeth.
-
Perhaps I did misrepresent your negative feelings towards a project as ripping on others, or trying to control a TB yourself. My bad.
I guess I was just responding to the riffing I was getting from you regarding my post (i.e. quips like "hater's police" comments, etc.).
I have my point of view. I write it down just like you do. Nowhere do I imply that I am superior at all... if it comes off as that, it's your interpretation. Not intended. Like I said, we all have strong opinions. I'm a huge advocate for seeing other people's point of view and always do so. Doesn't happen in TBs too much.
I just have a belief that a movie should be judged when it is seen in its final form come opening day. If someone sees a flick, hates it, and lets everyone know... hey, it's an opinion and I respect that. But in the case of Indy IV especially, I just don't get where the hate is coming from since we know nothing about the project. Nothing. That's all I was saying, and I don't know how that comes off as my trying to be superior or whatever, or being humorless as you said. Not my intention. Hey, you have your sarcastic humor in your posts/responses. I turn into preacher boy. 90% of the others call each other fagots, assholes, dipshits, apologists, idiots, etc. etc. etc. So I'll take sarcastic humor any day of the week. We all have our ways. -
Damn it! I thought Drew Mc Weeny was going to have a melt down like that time he screamed "anyone who down loads is SATAN!" Shit. He's mellowed. BTW need the info to bash /love Indy4.
-
I'm not a fan of the RUMORED son storyline. No different from the brother storyline rumored years ago (with people talking Costner in the role). I think it takes away from the core of the Indy character. Raiders was about as close as perfect you can get in my opinion. Temple of Doom swayed from the character too much, but still had the Indy swagger which was great. Crusade returned to the character moreso, but lacked the inventive action (except for the Indy vs. the tank scene, which I loved). I still liked it though... how it explored Indy's character and where he came from without resorting to the current prequel trend. (Not counting the River Phoenix sequence, which I thought was awesome... albeit a little convenient showcasing the creation of Indiana Jones' trademarks at one time... but hey, it's entertainment).
Whatever the story is going to be in IV, I actually like the idea of exploring how a guy like Indy deals with age. Rocky Balboa surprised many with that story angle (not comparing the two). If it's handled well, great. Sure wish Darabont wrote the script. Little worried that Lucas passed on his despite Spielberg and Ford's support of it (IF that was true). I don't trust Lucas as much anymore, but I trust Spielberg, especially with this character. Story-wise I can just see the images of some opening sequence that introduces some relic or conflict that must be found/taken care of. And the powers that be go to Indy's university. He's well beyond his adventure years. Rusty. Still teaching. They ask for his help and he says no... his whip days are over. But when he goes home and opens his trunk to see his old whip, revolver, fedora, etc... he just can't help himself. Thus begins the journey. THAT'S the Indy movie I want to see. -
I hope this and other mysteries are resolved in INDIANA JONES AND THE SEARCH FOR MARION RAVENWOOD!!!
-
Indiana jones and the pacemaker of doom
OR
Indiana Jones and the cgi whip of legend
Or Indana jones and the son who may or may not exist -
shame though as I liked that title. any chance of a script review of darabonts? man, I'd love to read that.....
-
"Whatever happened to good music like Cab Calloway or Glenn Miller?"
-
... declined script, at least until the movie is done and on DVD? its probably the best script ever and will only frustrate us... lol.

Right? Right?!?!?

on moto. Also, the rival archeaologist idea is the pants! However, she shouldn't sleep with Grampy Indy. That would be ick!

Just give your opinion and stop concerning yourself with other people's behavior you Fascist. AICN is a hellhole or haven't you noticed yet? LOL.

partially clothed Eric Bana as Indy's son.

And no, I haven't seen her Aussie work.

They bitch about lack of originality yet everytime one of these sort of threads come up there are all sorts of literal-minded comments like "Bring so-and-so back from the film they already made or it will suck"! So-and so should play so-and-so (based on the tenuous justification that they just look a bit like the character, nevermind acting)! The poor-man's Han Solo should be the poor-man's Indy (yes Nathan thingie) and on and on, yet none realise based on their own rationale they'd generally bag the kind of suggestions they themselves make. Crusade was a re-jig with some great bits. Tom Bodet you can't seriously think there's nothing wrong with the patronising and racist treatment of both Sallah and Brodie in Crusade, can you? Watch it again maybe. It's pretty awful. Oh yeah, while I'm going here, it's pretty funny that all the CG HATERS never bag Crusade out for its cg OR the straight out copy of the head melting from Raiders. I mean, come on.
Oh and Supaninja, I wasn't bagging you there by the way. It's just that most Americans tend to think Cate's films (and Russell Crowe's) start when they got off the plane. Probably got to do with Blockbuster and Wal-mart distribution. Cate as Indy is a great idea. Although it would be linked to those words that strike terror into our hearts - "re-imagining"! -
Crusade is sort of like a tv movie. More like a BBC product. But then they said Temple of Doom was great, so something ain't right with that analysis. The reason everyone wants to see Marion is that she was a great character and she had fantastic charisma with Ford. I think people would rather the characters end up together than not. Kind of like wanting Han and Leia to get together after ESB, you know?
-
... I don't frequent the boards enough to know if there is some ongoing "history" with you guys, but if all you are honestly bashing moto based purely on what he's said in this thread, then you're making yourself look like douchebags, and far more "clique-y" and elitist than you accuse moto of being. It's glaring. Now again, I don't know--maybe in other threads he's promoted the rape of kittens; but just based on this thread alone, he's said perfectly reasonable things.
-
is being given a good ribbing is all.
-
If ribbing is what was intended, then fine. It just seemed like a little more than that from my outsider's perspective.
-
talkback yesterday in the same manner. He's obviously got a bone to pick about AICN being negative.
-
If you were delighted by the sit-commish attempts at laughter in the Last Crusade, then all I can say is "BE PREPARED!" This movie is going to be da bomb! They'll be more wise-cracks than those found in the ass of Socrates. It's all about having fun you guys, come on! What I want is a good, gut-busting adventure from Indy that'll make my sides burst in full-ou guffaws. I can't wait for the quips that'll flash like lightning from Shia's lips. The reluctant sneer passing Indy's face that will slowly transform into a glinty, roguish smile. Damn, that Shia is talented. I only pray that Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson have cameos as wacky miniature Zuni dolls who steal Indy's toothbrush and stow away in Indy's Tucker on the way to Club Qui Gon in Sri-Lanka. A little levity to balance the action scenes,if you will.
"JOONIOR? JOONIOR??!! We have to find my diary!"

"I'll take THE RAPISTS for five hundred dollars, I see shomebody's childhood needs a good thrashing." -
gotta love it. Someone's gotta talk SOME sense into Yack, Superninja, and co.
Yes, I am of course joking. Or am I?????????????????????????? -
Too bad that Karen Allen didn't make the cut, but honestly, who ever heard from Kate Capshaw and Alison Doody after their performances in the sequels? I used to like Capshaw in stuff like Dreamscape, but her nonstop screeching in IJATTOD put us all off of her forever. At least Blanchett has talent and a good reputation and resume (as opposed to Capshaw and the forgettable Doody).
-
Way to take it on the chin, joonyah.
-
...read Yackbacker's posts.
-
The daughter appears on Young Indiana Jones. Harrison Ford is 27 years older than Cate Blanchett, and Karen Allen is 18 years older than her. I would buy Cate being Harrison and Karen's daughter. The time line is about acurate too. Indy 4 will take place sometime at the end of the 50's, or even as late at the end of the 60's and Vietnam time. I would say around 30 years after Raiders.
-
I'm right, you're wrong, stupid, etc. DO NOT DEBATE ME!
-
I can't even imagine the torture of watching Indy deal with a daughter who has insane hippy-liberal ideals, and you fucking know that's what they'd do in order to create some cliched tension between the characters. I really don't need them preaching to us about Iraq by cleverly disguising it as rhetoric about Vietnam instead. Fuck that noise, I hear it enough every day already. Guarantee you there would be a student protest scene at Indy's college and he'd be the target of that protest instead of the object of objection of his students, no more apples on his desk, instead we'll have pro-Communist pamphlets. Like I said, fuck that noise.
-
good casting
-
Its just been announced that Grindhouse will most likely find itself facing an NC-17 rating! Does anyone think it will actually be released as an NC-17 film? I'd like to believe it will, but I have my doubts.Supposedly Rodriguez has said that if they make him cut too much out of the movie he'll just release it directly to dvd, but I don't know if thats accurate info. I'll see this in theaters even if its R, but I can imagine alot of people being pissed that the MPAA is basically pissing all over QT/RR's plans to "give audiences an authentic Grindhouse experience". I can't imagine this is a surprise to them if they included scenes of "an obese man eating a baby" in one of the fake trailers...but I thought now that the Weinsteins were separate from Disney/Miramax we'd get to see these movies uncut in theaters...couldn't they release it "unrated" and bypass the entire "noone under 17 admitted" policy all together?
-
"Powahr to the people, June-yah. Powahr to the people."
-
that Grindhouse is released as an NC-17 film. That would be great.
-
An old man? Woo. A wooden cup? Yay. A cave in? Wow. Colour my childhood raped. I hope they raise the bar with this new flick. I mean c'mon, lets have Indy find Dantes stairs to hell and duke it out with Hitler AND Satan using neptunes trident having dipped himself in the river hades.

There's still room on the car roof for another cast member.

She does a lot of good artsy movies, so allow her to sellout for one or two along the way.
-
In the movie. I think it would add some sexual tension between Indy, Marion, Cate's character, and tension in general to all the characters. Maybe even give Cate's character the last name of "Croft", whose bloodline will give birth to their own adventurer...?
-
"he chose.....poorly." Most quotable line from any Indy film. Theyre all good imo. I love ToD....Crusade is pure entertainment. I can also see the appeal of Raiders, as it's the most straight of the series...but Ark isn't my favourite, despite it being by far the classiest of the series. I'm hoping that Indy 4 strikes a balance between crusade and raiders. Perhaps not so much comedy, but definately some at least. "Water!".."Water!"...."Water?"..."WATER!" best dialogue EVER
-
I understand everyone's need to be skeptical, especially since this is a geek honored franchise that is being taken out of storage by George Lucas. I think that happened once before and the results were not good. However, I really trust Spielberg and hope he can create a fitting final chapter. Let's hope there's some magic left in this franchise.
-
Don't you hate that?
-
I hate you.
-
The last thing we need is something like "Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men from Mars" by Jeb Stuart. I read about it in David Hughes' Tales From Development Hell and it sounded like the worst story ever. Indy hunts supernatural relics and ancient civilizations. He's not Fox Mulder or Roy Neary.
-
And for the LOVE of GOD, I'm glade you remembered the letter "h".
-
One of the things I hate about Crusade is how much it just tries to be Raiders. Temple of Doom may not have fired on all cylinders, but at least it was its own film with a story to tell. Crusade is Raiders disected and regurgitated, but with the extra special "dad" that makes it oh-so-cute. There is no need to revisit the things that made each movie special. No need to do ANOTHER ride off in the sunset. Speilberg sounds intent on making this a tribute to Indy, himself, and the things he has already done, and that will produce a horrible film. Absolutely no need to be weighed down by "dad" again. If you don't have a REAL STORY to tell, and not just a series of scenes meant to top or pay tribute to a series of scenes from another film, then there is no point. The only thing I could accept revisiting would be Short Round (Salah isn't a revisit, he is a part of the Indy world almost as much as the whip and the hat, imo). It would be somewhat nice to know what happened to Short Round, not as a rehash but because he seemed to be Indy's responsibility, and if Indy just abandoned him somewhere he comes off as a bit of a deadbeat(like Superman!), and if Short Round had family and a place to be to begin with, it makes Indy a crazy fuck who endangers children for no reason other than his own selfish crusades. Yes, Marion is great, but Indy obviously didn't wind up settled down with Marion immediately after Raiders, so it would be a complete rehash of the "why did you leave me" storyline of Raiders smashed into some action scenes and some jokes about being older. I hope Yack is right about how they use Cate, that would be the start of an interesting STORY.
-
For the record, despite all the fun that I and others have in coming up with a "lame" title for "Indy IV", ...and despite that there really is some truth in our concern for our aging Indiana Jones, ...I would like to say that I am most definitely looking forward to this flick, ...hopefully WITH Cate Blanchett. After all, ...odds are that THIS flick will not be any worse than TEMPLE OF DOOM. (The opening scene was the best part.) And whoever mentioned that the characters should progress further in time, just as the actors have aged, ...I think that's the BEST idea I've heard yet. With the examples the person gave for which Indy could struggle against, from UFOs to Communism, ...well, that's just spot on and exciting to think about. There are some great possibilities, here. Let's dream of an outstanding script, shall we?
-
I don't remember how old I was when I saw Temple (but I'm 30 now so take that for what it's worth) but while i perfered Raiders I loved Short Round as a char. and I've always too wanted to know what happened to him. Willie Scott on the other hand *ugh* I remember even thinking then "is there a point to all this screaming' hoping there was going to be some sort of reason for it, and there wasn't all she did was scream adn screama nd scream. It's been awhile since I saw ToD but didn't Short Round want to leave her several times, not just the famous "no time for love Docca Jones" lines but throughout the movie?another thing I NEVER picked up on until visiting this site 10 years ago and coming here regularlly was that ToD was before raiders, never picked up on that, how was that ever established
-
wasn't...well it wasn't as bad as it sounds. It was....ok. FAR too many "I'm too old for this" jokes htough. I'd be happy with mars as an Indy movie had there been like 10 of them...but after such a long wait, that script would have been nothing short of an insult. The scene with Marion and Willie and Short Round was pretty fun though...and I did laugh at the "climbing under the truck" scene.."don't worry, I've done this before"....and well, you can guess that the stunt doesnt quite work out like in Raiders. Indy getting married in Act 1 to a new character was pretty lame....but the opening pirate/boat fight was pretty cool. I'll bet that some of that script makes it into the final movie.
-
If there's money a callin', INDY 5 IS ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
BAM! Cate gets shot in the shoulder by some kids whose dad gives them a rifle to shoot wolves with. International hilarity insues. Bwa-wah-wah!
Anyway...should be good no matter what. But...it would have been cool if they weren't afraid to cast Karen Allen. It would have been a nice wrap up to the series...because come on...there ain't gonna be an Indy 5. :-) -
I once wrote a Birth of Darth Vader "treatment" - Lucas never called back. Of course, I was only 10....
-
If anyone at New Line is interested in my quasi-religious sci-fi film, give me a call, we'll do lunch. Lucas, you get lonely and wanna chat? Call me and let's trade recipes.
-
Good show. Should air in the U.S. Probably won't. Ever. Sad.

THE EXORCIST: SYNCHRONIZED is a treatment for a new and powerful entry in the Exorcist saga, taking place after Exorcist 2: The Heretic and Exorcist 3: Legion. It was first posted at Captainhowdy.com back in the summer of 2003 and generated a huge response, and has since then made its way all over the internet, most recently discussed at great length at the CHUD message boards. It is a profoundly moving piece of work that not only examines the place of God in our world but also the disasterous effects of homosexuality.
The screenplay is being written RIGHT NOW, so any interested parties from Warner Brothers or Morgan Creek can reach me at Warrior_Angel1983@yahoo.com. View the outline at www.freewebs.com/exorcist-synchronized -
You heard it here first. If this really is about Atlantis, as rumored, then Cate is playing a mermaid or a resident of Atlantis. That's my bet. She pulls off "ethereal" very well.
-
...it would allow Indy and his Dad to 'retire' after their adventure in a metaphorical 'heaven-like' atmosphere....I'm sure CGI Atlantis will be something spectacular to behold.

INDIANA JONES AND THE CURSE OF THE ANCIENT PROPHYLACTIC
by wyatt wingfoot
"He's got a whip and lets it rip...it had a tear, now he's got an heir!"
-
Listen to all of you fags bitching about words on the internet. It's only getting worse.
-
Blanchett is not a teenager, but 27 years younger than Harrison Ford. Indy is smart not to date women his own age..that would be frightening.
-
typos be damned.
-
who says cate is not some bad chick or shia labeufs girlfriend. i just want to know what he's after. something mystical, biblical, alien, what? what?!
-
....and the Hometown Buffet
....and the Golden Hoveround
....and the MedicAlert Bracelet -
Marion junior (Cate) and a young Hitler clone from Brazil (Shia) are both shrunken down and race up Indy's colon each hopeing to pull the magic seed reputed to be from Jack,s beanstalk from its resting place in INdy's inflamed tic.
By the way Lucas and Spielberg need to take Ford and his gal pal Calista Flockhart out to dinner adn watch everyone shudder at the combination to appreciate why only Marion should be polishing Indy's dentures from now on. Man's more likely to crack his hip than his whip....
INdiana Jones and the prosthetic hip... -
yes?
-
What was Spielberg's last GREAT film? OK, here's some GOOD films he's made - Munich, Minority Report, Saving Private Ryan. Then you get to Schindler's List...is it great or overrated? Whatever, his last better-than-good movie was out in 1993. By the time Indy arrives that's 15 years. I don't know about anyone else but I'm not expecting him to suddenly become an amazing filmmaker again. Last Crusade is a masterpiece compared with shit like A.I. and The Terminal, not to mention one of the most disappointing movies of all time - War Of The (Fucking) Worlds.
-
Gotta use Pinchers of Power!!!
-
because it sounds like horseshit to me but if it is true..then ..well it will still suck but i am curious if tht is true
-
But this has to be the first Indiana Jones I'm not looking forward to. It just seems unnecessary. The last scene of the Last Crusade had everyone riding off into the sunset with the story at close. If they can do a good job, let them go for it. But either way, for me, this is going to be an epilogue rather than part of the story.
-
Probably from watching Emma and realizing how annoying that movie was. Although, I am always impressed by the warmth and depth of Ewan McGreggor's singing voice.
-
fair warning.
-
Isn't Indy (and his dad) immortal now?
-
off to bed with me.
-
what happened to damning Michael Bay? Whats this milk bullshit?
-
they are going to have a hard time making a convincing fourth Indiana Jones film. if you ignore all of Harrison Ford's la-de-da theatrics, the real crux of 66% of the Indiana films in existance was Denholm's character. Indy IV will be as incoherent as Lethal Weapon IV's mistake of having a baby in it without an explination of where babies come from, and could well make the mistake they did in Police Academy 4, when Steven Guttenberg left in a balloon and caused disharmony for the rest of the series. other than that, the Indiana Jones films are nowhere near as fondly remembered as everyone thinks they are and this film is not really all that anticipated.

wasn't Holmes a coke junkie and not a heroin one? at best, opium, which whilst similar is not H. and why contribute to a forum if you are just going to get upset and give unusual threats to what people write? has American finally lost the freedom of speech it pretended to have? anyway, if it will make your day - Indiana Jones and the Polished Bellend. Indiana Jones and the Ringpiece of Commerce. Indiana Jones and the Unfortunate Sodomania Accident. Indiana Jones and the Geeks Who Have Nothing Better to do than Cry Out for this Film and then Complain about it.

thanks, I never noticed that before. But it does again put the question that someone above asked, if Dr. Jones was Short Round's guardian where was he during Raiders adn Temple adn if he wasn't, what in the world was he doing taking the little kid all over Asia?

First it was the arch, then it was the stones, then it was the grail... whats that? Christian, hindu? hebrew?? I don't even know.... but in any case, it'll probably have an aciant babilonian or dare I say Islamic core.

I like to watch the last crusade first, then raiders... and then if I'm still in the mood I'll watch temple of doom. Generally I'll skip over the whole second act though, thanks to dvd wonder magic.

...the title and Shia's involvement:
http://snipurl.com/1dbot
My sources were rock solid, but that's not the only reason I believe it. I believe it because the good folk at AICN have been given very strong info over the months that corroborate it all, in one way or another.
Still trying to check out this 'Gong Li in Indy IV' rumour though. Anybody got any leads? -
(which it generally is) in the same way that Jedi was a rehash of Star Wars, then it follows that Indy 4 will be the Phantom Menace of the series!!!
Remember when Lucas was saying how we'd really hate some of what he was doing to this movie? And we all thought he was joking? Yikes! -
Good heavens. We don't even really know what the story is about, and you've got these people already giving their reviews of the film.
For my money I agree with the sentiment that Temple of Doom was essentially a Fuck You to all the critics who insisted on dissing Spielberg for being commercial. Lot of pent-up anger in that film, to be sure
Last Crusade is a quest movie, and centers on the changes that the quest brings in the relationship to the father and son. As for Brodie and Sallah, my approach is to take an average, to assume they are the same characters, and that these are simply different sides to them.
All in all, I think it's best to remember these are only movies. That means logic is sometimes sacrificed in the name of not boring viewers to shit with details they could guess for themselves. We live our entire lives on incomplete information. People can watch a movie without having to figure everything out. -
Judeochristian artifact. I'm a fan of all three films, but I don't want them to cover the same territory they covered in 1 and 3. And please don't take this out of the forties. Just put a bunch of makeup on Ford and pretend he's not a million years old. All of this reminiscing has actually gotten me pretty pumped for this new movie.
-
He was actually at that age when he himself finally found the Grail. He didn't age after that, but was an old codger of a knight when he had reached the end of his quest.
-
He was like a hermit, but even hermits have stuff to do. You're really not supposed to think about it much just that's it's really cool that this guy is still alive. His sense of humor was still intact so he must've been doing something right.
-
...is when someone mentioned that Senor Speilbergio MUST use the original cinematographer, or at least a new one whose vision is more classic, adventurous, nostalgic, BRIGHT, and not his current phase of icey, techy, COLD blues.

Here's why: Indiana Jones isn't even in the movie. There is some guy with a fedora and a whip, but he isn't Indiana Jones. He looks like Indiana Jones, but he doesn't talk like Indiana Jones. He talks like the slurry Harrison Ford from 1987-present. "It belongs in a museum"! Since when? Nothing in the previous two films gave us this impression. Nothing. So SortofIndy causes the deaths of an entire ship full of people because the Cross of Coronado should be "in a museum"? And why has he been chasing after that artifact for "all his life"? Because he didn't successfully steal it? The men at the beginning of the film were obtaining the artifact in the most benign manner possible. They located it, they dug it up. It's theirs. Simple. Indiana Jones' methods are highly questionable when he is obtaining artifacts in the first two movies. Do any of those artifacts go to a museum? Not one. There are many, many other reasons why LAST CRUSADE sucks shit, here is the cliffnotes version: shitty slapstick, no real menace, all the characters are paper thin and jokey charicatures, weak action scenes, dumb jokes, it's a piss-poor rehash of the structure from RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, did I mention the shitty slapstick? And of course the worst offense: destroying the character of Indiana Jones. He gives his gun away to a Nazi?! Gives. His. Gun. Away. To a Nazi. And then there's the fact that he doesn't even want to go on this "crusade". What happened to the crazily obsessed Dr. Jones of the first two films? He's not in LAST CRUSADE, that's for sure. I'll end my post with one of my biggest complaints of LAST CRUSADE: The fact that a lot of what defines Indiana Jones for us are just things he lifted from some other guy? The fedora, the leather jacket, the khakis, the boots, the 3 day beard, and digging for buried treasure aren't really Indy's own traits, but traits he copied from someone else? sortofINDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE is a mediocre film in relation to all films, but it's a shitty adventure movie and a HORRIBLE Indiana Jones film.

If you're going to rip Last Crusade, then try a more obvious Lucas target. Episode I. Bad film in relation to all films. The canker sore of the prequels. Mucus secreted from a mucous membrane of the beautiful plant that is the classic Star Wars trilogy. Indy III is Casablanca next to TPM. Then again, no duh.
-
Indy!!!

not Indie.

i want Omid Djalili in this movie. irans funniest comic. that is all
-
... was a very specific title that fit the Darabont script. If Nathanson and Koepp really did rewrite this one from scratch, as Lucas and Spielberg have claimed all along, then it makes no sense at all for the title to still be in use.
And if they didn't scrap Darabont's script completely, then there's a chance they'll use the title.
Either way, I'll have this sorted out in the next few weeks.
And Gong Li's in THE MUMMY 3, not INDY 4. Jeff Wells is a goofball. -
One of the strengths of Indiana Jones as a series is how every film manages to actually bring new things to the concept and manages to stand alone.
This means, though, that everytime a sequel to RAIDERS is being made, some of those folks who fell in love with it will legitimately find these new things unsuitable, too dark, too goofy, too comic, too whatsoever. This is because all sequels have one big flaw, they're not RAIDERS, they're original in their own way and bring in little nervherding sidekicks, willies, dads and dogs.
I HOPE that INDY IV WILL ANNOY the shit out of a decent number of PEOPLE. -

one9deuce, Indy was ALL about the museum in RAIDERS....
by subliminaljones
Example one, at Marshall College:
Jones: "I got these pieces. They're good pieces, Marcus."
Brody: "Indiana...yes, the museum will buy them as usual, no questions asked..."
Example Two, at Jones' house:
Jones; "And the museum? The museum gets the Ark when we're finished?"
Brody: "Oh....yes!"
Example Three, at the end of the film:
Jones: "Oh the money's fine, the situation is totally unacceptable...."
He also makes a comment at the end of DOOM about giving the villlagers back the Sankara stone because it would just be a rock in a museum, collecting dust. So while I would agree that CRUSADE is generally weak, the idea of Jones putting the college museum's benefit high on his priority list didn't just appear out of nowhere.
-
Miss the first scene with Marcus in Raiders where Indy shows Marcus some pieces he brought back and Marcus says the museum will buy them as usual? Of course Indy never manages to bring back the really big finds.
-
was where Lo-Pan jumped out of a sarcophagus, drew his sword of peril, rammed it so far up harrison fords ass that it came out of his head, then laughed as the blood poured from Indy's eyes

...Squeeze More Money Out of a Tired Franchise. Sorry, Mo. Get that glove away from me.
-
Since it was so dang perfect of course you hold it to that standard. Few films compare to Raiders. That is an awesome script.
-
Last Crusade was tolerable but Doom blew.
Indiana Jones and the Enlarged Prostrate
-
to be weary in all of his more recent work. Maybe they can build that into the script, but that's a hard way to watch Indy go out. If this is just about squeezing out an addition to the franchise and all, replace Ford with Blanchett and pass the torch already. But if they make Indy go to Avalon or Outer Space, or some New Age version of heaven the audience is not going to buy it.
-
I liked parts of Doom, except for the whole premise and the "save the children from hard labor in the mines". Boooooorrring!!! Work in the mines is good for kids. The restaurant scene is the best part. It goes downhill from there. Crusade was okay, I agree with whoever said it was like a t.v. film. The sets were not big enough, they didn't have the scope of Raiders (with the exception of the Venice sequence). It's impossible to not compare everything to Raiders.
-
I can get a better deal in Cairo." That's an actual line from the script, INDIANA JONES AND THE REAL COST OF INFLATION.

Please give me a break, Moriarty -this is the first time, for whatever reason, that I've been able to register and post on AICN in two years despite multiple attempts on three different computers.

-
I hope so, cause I can't see her being the love interest of a man 30 years her senoir. When is Ford and Hollywood going to realize this he's in father of adult kids and grand father mode when he stars in future films???
-
I had forgotten about him asking Brody if the museum would get the ark. I have to believe that neither of them really thought that would happen though. The United States Government was hiring Indy as a soldier of fortune/mercenary not as an archeologist, and there is no way they weren't going to keep possession of the ark. As we saw at the end of the movie. Indy delivered it to the Feds for money. Your other point about Indy offering Brody "good pieces" and Brody saying "the museum will buy them as usual, no questions asked...", think about that for a second. Indy found them and they sure as heck weren't in museum. The only reason he offered them to Brody was because he needed money and the museum would BUY them. "No questions asked", because Indy IS more of a fortune hunter than an archeologist. And the Temple of Doom line "It would just be some rock in a museum collecting dust" really expresses his general attitude towards putting artifacts in museums. Remember Belloq's line in ROTLA: "You and I are very much alike. Archeology is our religion, yet we have both fallen from the pure faith. Our methods have not differed as much as you pretend. I am but a shadowy reflection of you. It would take only a nudge to make you like me. To push you out of the light". That is who Indiana Jones is, a fortune hunter/archeologist with some very questionable methods and motivations.
-
You think Episode 1 is "the canker sore of the prequels"? THE PHANTOM MENACE is at least watchable, and it has some great sequences, ideas, and themes in it. ATTACK OF THE CLONES and REVENGE OF THE SITH are both pure shit. I can't think of one redeeming feature of Episode II or Episode III. I watched 5 minutes of ROTS on HBO while I was eating my lunch, and I still can hardly believe just how much it sucks.
-
You have read Darabont's script for Indy 4? Did I miss this information on some other talkback? Are we going to get a script review? Or better yet, is that thing going to be available to read? That thing is like the Geek Holy Grail right now. INDIANA JONES AND THE CITY OF THE GODS is a really great title.
-
Are you nuts?!?!? Episode I was good purely on opening day when one saw it for the first time because of all the hype going into it. Twenty years since a Star Wars movie was made. We're going to see how Vader started, yada yada. After that premiere viewing it was like a child becoming a man: disappointment, disillusionment, and the reality that nothing is perfect. At least Episodes II and III tried to recapture some of what made the first three movies entertaining and relegated Jar Jar further and further into the background.
-
...not English. And even in the Fugitive Harrison could only hobble in the running scenes. Something, as Orson Welles once said, really is 'off'. Hope Cate gets to do some screwball. Look at her kitchen dance in Pushing Tin for what I mean. Give her some physical comedy Steven, some cliffhanging and boulder dodging, that kinda stuff
-
on any level. First time viewing was actually more of a disappointment than DVD viewing, because on a DVD it is possible to fast forward almost all of the film. It was, however, better than EP2- which is so shit that it actually debases the rest of the series. with regards to Indy: no Shia Lebouf! what great news, although I bet the little turd would be in it if BAy was directing and gave him "creative freedom"
-
Episode 1 is better than Episode 2 and Episode 3. I agree with you on the fact that Jar Jar Binks is horrible, but look at it this way: If Jar Jar Binks was in AOTC and ROTS with the same amount of screen time he had in TPM, they STILL wouldn't be any worse because..........that's not possible!
-
totally
especially since she hasnt been in a movie since 1985 -
...I'm out oin this one. Not even going to give it a go in theaters.Why?Because the very notion of Harrison Ford trying to mount Cate is more ludicrous than any amount of whip swinging or Nazi fighting at his age. She'd snap him in half.If this movie featured an older Indy settling down with Marion, I'd have checked it out just for the character closure. But if I want to see an elderly man grab-assing a woman a third his age under the pretense of romance, amusement and adventure, I'll visit my dad. At least he'll make me a drink.
-
episode 3 wasnt that bad but Episode 1 and 2 were horrific. Great casting news for getting Cate Blanchett though, shes a hottie.
http://tinyurl.com/pv8do -
Lucas, Spielbergo, anyone?
-
But I'm looking forward to this and I know I'll see you all there.
-
One of my favourite Indy 4 titles was something along the lines of "Indiana Jones and the damn kids who wont get off my lawn" I'm sure it was something better than that I can't remember what though.
-
You guys who are old enough, remember the outcry? I think it was the scene where a man's (still beating) heart was pulled out of his chest that really drove this argument, for a new rating. It's been many years since I've seen Temple of Doom... but that's just one of the things that I remember most. (I love RAIDERS, though.)
-
Perhaps there can be a rematch between Indy and Lao Che? I'm surprised so many people are insulting Doom and Crusade. I suppose if you're comparing them to Ark then you're going to be disappointed, but compare them to films in general and you've got two great movies. I mean I could go into any movie and compare it to Rashomon and be disappointed time and again, but where would that get me? You can't be one of those sad sacks that says everything was better back in college or that music sucks nowadays. If you compare everything to a movie you put on a pedestal (even if it's rightfully put on that pedestal) then life just going to be one disappointment after another.
-
... How can they even figure out a way to do this that won't be ludicrous? Ford is way too old... it's been like, 20 years since the Last Crusade (which was set in, what?... the 40's?) Is this one going to be set in the 60's??? It'll have to be to get the timeline right because... again... Ford is OLD! I mean, I'm a huge fan, but let's face it, the guy hasn't exactly aged gracefully, he just keeps getting craggier and craggier and will soon end up looking like either the mummified corpse of the ancient Egyptian Pharoah Ramses I... or Clint Eastwood... actually both, since Clint now looks EXACTLY like the mummified corpse of ancient Egyptian Pharoah Ramses I! Anyway, they right off the bat loose the charm of the 30's and 40's period setting (And, oh hell(!)... The scene where curmudgeonly ol' Prof. Indy gets into an "All In the Family"-style argument with one of his swingin' radical hippy students is going to be mind-numbingly bad! And you just KNOW it'll be in there!) There's just no way this is gonna work...none. At best we'll end up with the bastard crossbreeding of Spielberg's current less-than-stellar, paint-by-numbers productions and George (the Pouch) Lucas' extended demo reels for Industrial Light and Magic. It ain't gonna be pretty!
-
GREMLINS was also a big catalyst in the MPA instituting the PG-13 rating. rbatty024, what's wrong with hoping for greatness in a movie? And it's not a "back in college" mindset, it's looking at things objectively. For example the 70's were the best decade for movies but the worst decade for cars. The mid-90's to now has been a renaissance in cars, but films for the most part have sucked. Stuff happens in cycles, movies are in a downturn. They'll get good again. I hope.
-
this film will disappoint.
-
they do the CGI "Youthing" thing that they used in X3- Would that make it any better?
-
who's also gorgeous. I hope this film doesn't ruin her.
-
...they pretty much HAVE to CGI some youth back into Harry's face for this one...just as they'll pretty much HAVE to CGI any stunt work he's supposed to do. But there are limits to what you can do with that technology before you're looking at a cartoon of the guy Harrison Ford used to be and, then, what's the point?
-
they didn't do to bad a job in X3, but I agree: what's the point? I was just attempting to make it more palatable. Having said that- would you rather see an artificially youthed Indy or some old fart attempting ninja archeaology (possible foes as it is from the 60's must be either Russian, some derivation of Odessa, or some such crap) whilst trying to hoist his viagra fuelled carcass on top of a woman half his age? I vote the former.

Yeah, the old knight probably prayed a lot. But I'm guessing those chalices weren't all he shined to pass the time

he would buy the pieces, what he meant was, he was gonna go get some 99 cent chicken pieces for lunch at Wendys
-
Now they just need to sign Judi Dench to be the love interest for Sean Connery. Ewwww. Or maybe father and son will share Cate, like in Last Crusade. Ewwww. Or maybe they'll share Judi Dench. Ok, I threw up in my mouth a little with that "Ewwwww"
-
Now with 100% More Major Kira! Rawr!
-
character after han solo, there is the small issue but it is an important one and that is box office draw. It has been a very long time since Harrsion ford set the box office alight. I will definitely see this film. I just hope this is the last. and i hope that I dont start reading about a story that lucas is writing called Indiana Jones and the space crusade. where indy goes to outer space and discovers an urn which contains a contains something horrible it will blow your mind. ie the shrill voice of Kate capshaw.
-
Cast Tony Jaa! Nuff said....
-
Can anyone confirm or deny this?
-
phibbit
-
Maybe it's time to introduce more characters in a 60's setting. Maybe Indiana and Henry are the brains of the outfit. And if Indiana (and/or Henry) get in any fights, just scale it back with an "equal" opponent. Maybe Indiana will fight a rough and tough middle-aged woman. Whatever the case, it could be both funny and exciting, not to mention entertaining. Spielberg can pull this off... and he should feel inspired, as you would think.
-
Harrison Ford was Han Solo and George Lucas produces Indiana Jones, so this is sort of relevent. OK it's not, but it IS funny as hell: http://tinyurl.com/pwbvq

you seen this one? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6A0rwG39Jzk

And have him go on adventures. But I guess that would involve actually having to come up with an original idea and an original character.

The ultimate craptacular 4th film of all time. There was wailing and gnashing of teeth in theaters. The movie behind the Branch Davidians and the ultimate cause of the stock market crash Oct 19 1987. The movie that is the real reason behind global warming. The abortion that was....Jaws 4.
-
News just in:
1. Mark Hamill signed on for cameo role.
Luke Skywalker will be seen in the background when Indy is being chased by ethnics hired by the main villain. He will be the the 3rd movie chase.
2. Planned Chewie cameo scrapped after Cate Blanchett refuses to sign contract.
3. Planned Jones Snr with rocket booster boots scene scrapped after
CGI staff say no.
4. All treasure props in the movie to be made from real gold and jewels.
5. And lastly the movie will be co-sponsored by The Holocaust Remembrance Society. -
Superman IV, Exorcist IV (The Beginning), Return of the Living Dead IV, Fantastic Four (Hey, four is in the title), and Hellraiser IV, i.e. Bloodlines. Those are some real craptacular foursomes.

Whatever the fourth Dirty Harry film was.
-
Oh, and I can't wait to give more of my money to George Lucas. Where does the line for this film start.
-
Universal Soldier 4. Friday the 13th 4. Nightmare on Elm Street 4. Scanner Cops 2: Scanners 4. Ghandi 4: Bloodlust. Indiana Jones and the Rising Home Mortgage Rates.
-
critters 4 (not that 1,2 or 3 were that great), Death Wish 4 (see previous comment), Scary Movie 4. I actually looked those up on imdb(apart from Star Trek) It is also true of Games which is why Rockstar called Vice City, well, Vice City as otherwise it would have been GTA 4. And therefore would have blown goats. Are there any good "part 4's"? much harder question.
-
not completely awful, but not worthy of the series. I have to stop this now
-
It's got to be one of the better part fours anyway. Has anyone mentioned Alien Resurrection yet? Thats another terrible fourth.
-
(At least I actually finished watching "4") Good luck with that new Rambo flick, Sly. Seriously, I hope it turns out well.
-
Yeah, ...maybe the battle between Rocky 4 and 5 goes the distance... and it's kind of like a split-decision. But since I actually finished watching "4", it's more like a T-KO, from my perspective. And yeah, I saw a bit of "ROCKY 4" on television a few months back (the first time in many years) and it was like watching a cartoon.
-
Off the subject but i sent this to Harry and he didn't put it up. Shia LaBeouf said in an interview with UK mag Total Film that they have actually built a mobile phone that can change into a robot for Transformers and that it is called Sound Wave. It's on pg53, check it out. A lot of you will probably complain that his is too hip or contempary or something but i'm sure a cassette recorder was just as 'hip' in the 80's. This seems like a logical disguise for a spy robot and i personally can't wait to see an actual mobile transform, no cgi or nothing.
-
Why? Think about it: It's set in the 1950s, when leading ladies like Grace Kelly, Deborah Kerr and Eva Marie Saint had class and style. Who better to play that kind of role than Cate Blanchett? I think this one will be like the Fifties Hitchcock films -nobody made a fuss over Cary Grant being old enough to be Eva Marie Saint's father. Or James Stewart being old enought to be Grace Kelly's grandfather. This will also rule because George Lucas is the MAN! With Spielberg, Koepp and Harrison Ford it's like the Dream Team, nothing can stop them!
-
I have been waiting for this, for what seems forever, PLEASE let indy 4 be as awesome as I have always hopped and prayed!
-
this idea of using Jeff Goldblum IN THE SAME ROLE as the sadly deceased Denholm Elliot will not work. too tall, too jewish and too American to pass off as an English homosexual.
-
How do we know Cate isn't the "Bad Guy (Gal)" in this movie? That would totally rule. Not the turncoat type like Allison Doody though. A major evil femi-Nazi. Tough as nails, evil to the core, gets melted in the end. I'd pay big money to for that.
