Quint from Comic-Con: "Indiana Jones... I always knew some day you'd come walking back through my door..."
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. So, I have the big Paramount panel to finish up... a nice little write up, but I want to do a specific story on INDIANA JONES 4.
This followed IRON MAN, which was a kick-ass presentation... stay tuned for my rundown of that. The INDIANA JONES theme started to mass cheering. Suddenly the screen blinked and Steven Spielberg is sitting there, linked live by satellite. I think they meant to only frame him sitting on a set, but you could see a familiar tan elbow and brown fedora tip next to him.
After welcoming the audience and saying hello to Comic-Con, Spielberg introduced Harrison Ford, completely decked out who was funny and full of life. Felt like Indiana Jones again. Ford introduced his side-kick. All the girls (and some guys) cheered and then he said, "This is my side-kick... Ray Winstone." Winstone was dressed exactly as Indiana Jones' partner should be dressed as... dusty, earth tones. Then Ford introduced Shia LaBeouf as "my other side-kick."
Shia was in his leather greaser outfit, but had a lot of scraggly growth... light beard. He just kept saying, "What the hell am I doing here? I mean, look at this group..." said he was totally out of place.
Then Spielberg abruptly stood up and said, "You guys hold it down... I have to get something." There was an uncomfortable few seconds then Spielberg walked back in with another director's chair. He opens it, revealing "Marion Ravenwood" stitched onto the chair. Then he brought Karen Allen out... Good God what a moment... she looks exactly the same!
It wasn't much info, but the old geek juices are flowing pretty strong now. I can't bloomin' wait!

first

i cant belive how much she still looks like marion. and theres ford looking like mr. burns or somehting. winstone should be great as the sidekick....why no pics of shia though?
-
Okay Quint, you have officially made me geek out for this. I knew it was going to happen, but dammit, not this soon! Great scoop homie.
-
Rating how excited I was to see TPM a year before release - 7/10.
Rating how excited I am to see INDY 4 a year before release - 11/10. The bar has been raised. :) -
I might actually be getting excited about this...
-
She could drink all of you pussies under the table. Welcome back Marion!
-
I wonder if she still has that slinky white silk dress Belloq dressed her in, god she was hot in that.
-
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
We are so easy. LOL
BTW, Liberty Valance, your user name rocks. -
cuz I so wanna make love with her... I don't care for the make up or lighting, she may be 55 year old now she looks exactly the same, which means lovely. Hot. Marion FUCKING Ravenwood. I'm so hyped it hurts. Thank you Steven. Hope it lives up to the hype.
-
Fantastic to see Karen Allen is involved. This is the first bit of news on this movie that makes me think it might be worthwhile. Shia is like the anti-Allen: he's a likeable kid, but is he on a mission to fuck up established franchises (hopelessly miscast as Chas in CONSTANTINE - haven't seen TRANSFORMERSKABOOOOM! - hopelessly miscast in INDY IV????)
Nothing beats seeing that smile, though. Marion is BACK - and she has more balls than any man in this series!!! -
This is going to be great.
-
All the fanboys bitching that Harrison Ford is too old will be the same one's camping out to get in line opening night.
-
That's at least ONE thing they're doing right.
-
It looks Indy has been spending a little too much time at the local Cracker Barrel. It's still good to see them all back together.
-
help me finish it, someone. KA sure looks MILFalicious though.
-
just the imagination of Indy and Marion in one scene and what tension and emotional baggage ensues from that is freaking awesome. thanks for posting all that, quint.
thanks for posting it Quint. -
Allen is about nine years younger than Ford...I think, which fits right into the supposed age gap between Indy and Marion. I actually like Indy's tiny little Waschbärbauch or ...idea of a beergut (we don't want to exaggerate here) .... looks cute.
-
so thank you VERY MUCH.
Now put the crappy camcorded footage of Iron Man online. NOW. Please. -
Lets hope spielberg can still work his magic
-
ooooops....the official site changed...in the past few minutes. I guess this is not a dream or something.
-
www.indianajones.com
-
Wow! I REALLY REALLY REALLY hope this is good. I was against an Indy IV but I hope to goodness they prove me wrong and alleviate my fears. Bringing Marion back is a great move/ step in that direction.
-
I just know...
-
Which is surprising
-
That's pretty wild. Maybe Indy should be the sidekick in this one, because he's going to look fragile compared to everyone else.
-
i got goosebumps when i saw that pic. awesome
-
Fuck Spielberg's wife! And Fuck that Nazi Bitch too!
-
Just to clarify: Karen Allen: born in 51 Ford: born in 42. It was about time they dumped that shitty synch Raiders March version on the official site.
-
thank you. That made my whole week.
-
He looks kinda old in the middle photo but a lot younger in the one on top and bottom. Karen Allen coming back is GREAT news!!!!!!!!!
-
Makes me think that the Ark maybe what they're going after. Makes sense if Marion, and perhaps Ravenwood are going to be in it.
-
...about which movie will be the biggest box-office draw of 2008 has been FUCKING ANSWERED!
-
This and the new Star Trek in the same year? 2008 is going to eat 2007 for breakfast.
-
Shia's "Oh my god", "what am I doing here", "I'm so out of place", "I haven't been doing anything but watching the movies back to back to back to back to back to back to back" is getting a bit redundant...but...who cares.
-

This grotesque age fixation some people seem to have...
by mr. brownstone
pisses me right off.
-
just looked at the pics at cinematical (who still haven't learned to spell shia's name). If Shia's going to look sexier than Ford my female senses will be confused. Why the hell did they have to put him in? I hope I'll get good answers in May.
-
Marion is in the movie, the official website is showing the crate, and they display the Ark at the Comic Con, is this a hint? The Ark is in the movie?
-
Someone please put it online! We need to see it!!! Please!
-
Thanks Quint! This just might kick a whole lot of ass! VERY HAPPY NOW.
-
If it comes into play at some point, fine. But don't make it the Macguffin from the start. and yeah, those pics got my geekjuice flowing!
-
The Ark must be in this movie. IndyCollector is right, the only numbers that differ from the box with the ark in raiders is 5 & 7, so that must be a typing error, or (not likely) the error has been deliberately made to confuse the fans, to keep us guessing...

Nice one, AllieJamison. I cannot wait for trailer #1. Dare I ask where our freund JettL93 is. The attention-starved idiot...
-
Whenever they decide to put that shit out... fuck, why'd they just bean Pujols??? (Sorry watching the Cubbies)
-
He's not looking so good next to Karen. I thought she was plain Jane and Margo Kidder-ish in the first Indy film, but she's truly aged FANTASTICALLY.
-
She's like the big sister I always wanted.
-
... I met her when I was 12, and she looks like she hasn't aged a day.
I have, though. Grrrrrowr. -
I'm travelling and my blackberry apparently doesn't have the Java necessary to see it. danke, fraulein!
-
it's from all that yoga and her vegan diet, I betcha. What a MILF! (a 'Marion I'd Like to...')
-
Marion.
Ahhh... -
Man! I can't wait for this new Raiders of the Lost Ark movie to come out! Oh, wait...
-
all I can picture is Donald Sutherland's ass?
-
It's about time they made this official. Can't believe how great she looks. A few moths ago I came across her Fibre Arts website.
On a whim I mailed her my "Raiders" LP. She signed it and sent it back in a week. Class!
-
Fuck!
-
a Lunar amber ale to Indy and Marion. Welcome back, old friend. Welcome back.
-
Uh...
-
"class" is not even enough to describe that, you lucky b....!!! I always knew she was a real Lady. Try the same with Lindsey lohan in 30 years (if she's still alive) and I'm pretty sure you'll get nothing (well, maybe she'll sue you for harrassment)
-
Maybe seeing Ford don the hat & whip will give Lucas a big, heaping case of nostalgia and he'll finally break down and give us Episodes 7,8,9...c'mon the signs are there...the "Han shot first T-Shirt". There might be hope yet. And Sweet Baby Ninja Jesus, this film looks fantastic! Karen Allen, oh yes. Hearing that great John Williams theme on the IJ website...fantastic!
-
I apologize for the seemingly bitchy nitpick above, but I honestly am at a loss for words with how happy I am from these pics!
-
my lordy lord--she looks 30.
-
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
-
Treasure it,man. (Like I need to say that!) I tried the same thing to no avail with Gary Gaetti. AKA: the Royal slug
-
Slime bag should have thought of it before signing the contract, eh?
-
Andy Capp the movie, in which he will also star...
-
wasn't it at the same panel? Why no footage? forgot your camera? and where's the rest of the Cameron's telephone interview? and WalterB's talkback?
sorry, I lost it for a second. But you did mentioned IM in your Indy article. Oh Quint, you tease... -
Just awesome...this is what makes going to movies in a theater actually worth it.
-
This is really something, I am holding back tears...had no idea I would be so moved to see her back..
-
Beowulf and Shia LaBeouf in the same movie. Don't know why that's so fascinating to me. Also, does this have anything to do with Voltron?
-
She's a MILF. I just creamed my pants.
-

I hope she whacks him in the chin with the mirror again
by stuntcock mike
Nice kolopnich.
-
This just upped my day's quotient. Kick ass!
-
Thanks Forestal ! Smiles : P
-
i guess this really is happening...
-
I used to walk in on them when I was a kid and dad would be standing over mom with a whip in his hand. I'm scarred for life.
-
Has anyone noticed that the official website update has the crate that contains the Ark from Raiders on the front page? I know two numbers of the serial number are switched, but if that's not confirmation of the Ark in this film I don't know what is.
-
This better be one hell of a story otherwise.
-
Sorry, couldn't resist.
-
about this more than any other movie that has every been made. the only thing that would make me even more excited was if michael j fox got a cure for his shakes and was able to make BTTF 4 5 and 6. this is just some incredible shit. indiana FUCKING jones! YES
-
It's official...

good show old men. clap.

YAHOO!
-
R.A.D.
-
26+ years and what??? God I hope its more than a cameo. For the love of Pete's sake I hope they gave her a good part in this.
-
Cool
-
What wonderful news, this was what I was hoping for most for this film. Can't wait!
-
...It's a whole new ballgame, boys and girls. All bets are off, and we have not come here to drink, Fraulien! I am officially stunned. Good lord.
-
holy hell...
-
Equals...Awesome!!!!
I am now turning off ALL negative comments that I may see. Age, LeBeouf, Lucas??? Can't chill my enthusiasm.
Memorial Day 2008??? Victoria Day for us here in Canader.
I. Will. Be. There. -
I am so happy she is back in indy 4 I wish she was in all of them. She has been great in everything I have seen her in. She is a under used talent
-
I hope she is feeling the love
-
That the production has been up and running for, what, a month now? 26 days of principal photography and they managed to keep this bit of info under wraps until now. Nice to know the world we live in still has some surprises.
-
nah, just kidding. A YEAR TO GO!!!
-
She looks great! But where has she been all these years? Ah, who cares? It awesome to see the old crew again! I predict this movie will be tops next year.
-
I'm amazed at how few leaks there are from this set. It shows how seriously everybody involved is taking this. Even if the movie doesn't live up to expectations (and how can it?) they are working hard, not relying on CGI, and seem to be having fun. It's in contrast to the "soulless" reports that were coming back from Episode I.
-
The return of the great adventure indeed.
-
They played clips from Good Luck Chuck and 3:10 to Yuma. For Good Luck Chuck they trotted out Jessica Alba and Dane Cook, and the director. After they were through, I noticed a lot of people streaming out.
For 3:10 Peter Fonda and Ben Foster appeared. The clips for both flicks look interesting. Director and Cook both say Alba shows some serious comedic chops. Overall, the star appearances were not especially enlightening.
Third group out was for some Clive Barker horror thing, Meat Train something or other. Clip had great train in a tunnel cinematography, but otherwise didn't grab me. After some cast members and Clive Barker were introduced and Barker started talking, I couldn't stick around. Something about Barker bugged. -
That's all I got.
-
I wasn't too excited about Indy 4 until I saw that pic. She just insured that it will be an entertaining film.
-
That's such a fuzzy AND far away picture that it's hard to tell whether or not she it still "hot". She COULD be like one of those Monet paintings where the closer you get to it, the more it breaks apart.
I submit to you that she probably still is good looking, but in a more post-botox, post-facelift, early-fifties sorta way. Either way, she is still a MILF....though perhaps she has graduated to GILF. -
...in the make up chair, I mean man she looked seriously rough on the special features in the Indiana Jones dvd collection. Scarily so. But still, great to see her back and done up well for the film, hopefully she's still able to bring the same spirit to the role that she did originally.
-
I am so happy!!!!
-
Only joshin'... Can Harrison hold his gut in all the way through shooting though?
-
Sorry I just can't help myself.
-
Thank you, Quint. Thank you, Steven. Hell, thank you George. I can't accurately put into words how psyched these pictures make me. I grew up with these films. And here I sit on my beach house porch at 4AM giddy as a schoolboy. I am genuinely excited that they MAY capture a piece of the absolute wonder that is Raiders. What great news.
-
Anyone checked the serial number of that box against the one that was wheeled off at the end of Raiders?
-
you just gotta look at the extras on the box set to see what they can do with make up these days. not being harsh though, she is still hot, and I am totally stoked for this movie and always have been. it will be the best one since raiders.
-
This film is going to be AMAZING.
-
a real seasoned adventurer. I really hope they tackle his age in a decent way....
-
Paunchy paunch turkey neck.
-
Can't wait to hear what Williams does with the score. We know we'll get the classic Raiders march, but could there be anything as cool as the Well of the Souls theme?
-
She's 56, but probably didn't want to do big action scenes in the film, hence the reason they came up with Indy's son.
-
Karen Allen looks DAMN FINE! It's a real thrill seeing that gorgeous, mischievous grin again. Hopefully Spielberg treats her character with more respect than he did with Salah and Brody in LAST CRUSADE.
-
i know it won't the same as watching a Jones flick as a teenage boy, but damn i'm looking forward to this anyway.
-
but only because she's about the same age as my mother and I have funny feelings for her left over from Raiders. Icky Icky feeling right now.
-
Seriously, that's it? All that effort and not one bit of information?
-
Seriously, she looks great.
-
well, you've probly earned it at this stage...
-
I would say seeing Indiana Jones and Marion together is news and has got loads of people all fired up to see this movie. You can't say that about a lot of sequels anymore.I can't wait to see this and I'll be very curious to hear about Iron Man.
-
She's definitely had some work done. Watch her in the IJ box set or the Animal House SE dvd and you'll see how much she has really aged. Looks like Palpatine.
Still, beyond cool that she's going to be in this. -
that this film is gonna open on all the retards who can only come out with lame title jokes any time this film is mentioned.
BRING IT FUCKING WELL ON!!!!!!!! -
It's very cool, but it Spielberg shrinking and turning into Yoda?
-
I feel sorry for actors is North America. If you let yourself age your slammed. If you get work done, slammed again. I guess the solution is to embrace vampirisim and avoid sunlight.
-
You all have got to be kidding me. Yes, it's great that Marion's back but are we expected to believe that fat-ass Harrison Ford can still kick some ass? Suspension of disbelief is one thing - but C'MON. The dude is FUCKING FAT. You'd think that during the years and years of script development, he could have lost twenty pounds. Harrison Ford's a joke.
-
She's still gorgeous, and in great shape. Glad to see her back in the Indy series
-
sleeping with Donald Sutherland, and thus forcing us to see his butt.
-
Look to the present and future, not the past. :-)
-
I saw Harrison Ford. He looks bad. Not bad meaning good but bad meaning bad. He now is a relic.
-
You fucking loser.
-
Classy.
-
you know I am excited and all but if this film is truly about the ark again then my enthusiasm dims big time...and now dragging marion into it ...it all seems slightly manipulative....or maybe i am just a miserable cunt.I just want it to great.....
-
NOFUCKINSHITTHISISTHEBESTFUCKINGNEWSIHAVEEVERHEARD!
I am excited!
"Bistare! Bistare!" -
Seriously, she looks great.
-
Ford looks old in those pics. Seriously. I'm hoping that's just because it's a picture of screen, but I mean, wow, he looks like my grandfather (and I'm 32)
-
... I hope Sideshow do a premium 1/4 scale format Indy (Raiders Indy of course). The Han is brilliant, save the eye colour.
I know I know, what a nerd. -
I saw this last night on G4. And they are re-airing it all weekend. Steven kept saying "this movie is for you the fans, every shot i am always thinking bout what the fans want". Also at the end i think Karen said or Ford said they are a big happy family. Or something like that. No Lucas anywere. And Indy's shirt looked too big. not his gut.
-
I just hope her attitude from the first film is still intact. I've never fallen harder for a female love interest in this kind of film than I did for Marion. She was cool, she was cocky, she was fun, she was never annoying, cloying. In short, she was everything Capshaw WASN'T in the next one. Cannot WAIT for this. Who needs Connery when Marion's back?
-
I run 5k everyday and still have a stomach on me. I wouldn't mind looking like him if I get to 65.
Why are some people so f'kin bitter and twisted on here? Listen, it's Harrison Ford as IndiFUCKINGana Jones. As long a Ford is breathing he is still qaulified for the role. -
Don't get me wrong, I'm TOTALLY psyched for Indy 4, but I assumed there would be more of a presence at arguably the largest convention in the world. Also, where's the Star Wars TV show coverage?
-
Didn't we sorta already know she was going to be in this a month ago? Yes, I'm excited as hell about seeing her and Ford together again, but her BEING IN THE MOVIE should be no surprise to anyone who's followed Indy IV news. What IS interesting to me is that I'm guessing they are still in Hawaii, which means some of he screen time must come during the scenes in ?the South American jungle? Hawaii doubles for?
-
Belloq motions to the Hovitos: hwiit, hwiit!
-
If there's a scene HALF as good as the truck chase scene in Indy IV, well...it'd still be only half as good as the truck chase scene. But I'll still be happy to see it.

I'd much rather see an older Indy than Ford pretending to be a younger Indy and looking stupid. And he looks ace at 65. There aren't many people who have aged that well, and he has clearly put some work in to get fit. Indy, Batman, Iron Man, Star Trek, next year is already looking good!
-
Star Wars Day at Comic-Con is Today. Sansweet does a presentation later today. You will get your fill of a Galaxy Far Far Away. I promise. 2008 is going to be the shit.
-
but it seems that they are going the "reveal things very slowly" route. ah, but Finky, you know seeing them together in the same pic is pretty sweet.
-
OK. Now I'm onboard. What a sexy, older woman. I'm going to see this movie for you, Karen.How great is it that the biggest geek response for this movie comes from the love of her and her character?!
-
Harrison Ford: yawn
Indiana Jones: blah, blah, blah
Shia TheBeef: whatever...
Karen Allen: I'm there. Zero day. Midnight showing. -
I think they should make that the mini adventure in the beginning like Coronado's cross. I just think each Indy film should be a new artifact.
-
is as packed as the Star Wars premieres. I miss the super fan hype and the wait in line with fellow geeks and nerds alike.
-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =CMLcC-zh1pE
least I can say Ive done my duty now. looks like theyre all having fun. A little concerned at the bergs detachment from the film though...i.e im not doing this for myself = I didnt want to do this movie, but I got forced into it. -
Heck, I'd see this for her as much as Ford.
-
And somewhat depressing that Hollywood hasn't moved forward much.
-
Most people have complimented Harrison and Karen on the their time-worn appearances, but I'm still amazed at those who want to nitpick Harrison Ford's gut, or Karen Allen on the special features of the IJ dvd box. Hell, I bought the IJ set and the classic Battlestar set the day they were released, and yes, Allen looked older. ANd, judging from some screen captures of the set footage, she looks better now. But for Christ sakes, the woman is 55 or 56. As for the dvd interviews, I salute her for not having stretched her face like Mary Tyler Moore and Dolly Parton. As for her looking better, it's probably makeup, or whatever. Don't really care. Seems like(from other stories) that she's a class act, and I'm excited to see her return. Probably just going to be some talk about Indy getting back in the saddle, or our kid blah, blah, blah. I would rather see her in some action sequences, but I doubt it. Here's hoping she and Harrison can deliver a little of the old Raiders magic. Let's face it, it's hard to recreate iconic films, songs, tv programs, etc. Original SW vs. Prequels, Elton John 1970's vs. the Lion King music are two good examples. As for tying in the ark too much, I'd rather they not do it. If they pull off, they're shit on a stick. If not, they're just shit, and have tainted the great ROTLA. ANyway, I'm pumped, and will be the first in line for the midnight show!
-
Sometimes I get her confused with that kook who played Lois Lane Superman that pulled out her teeth and ended up in the neighbor's bushes.
-
Ouch. What a profound comment. Maybe you're right. Harrison Ford's large saggy stomach is PERFECT for Indiana Jones. Why didn't Spielberg think of that sooner? What did Harrison Ford do, eat the ark? You and Indy should go guzzle some beers together and compare waist sizes, don't you think?
-
Welcome back, Marion. We missed you.
-
Like I said, you're a fucking loser, brezzel.
-
that ride into the sunset at the end of Crusade was a perfect ending. The only way to justify this movie is if there are two more follow. Indy 2.0
-
I agree. Although I feel that we're being spoiled by this film as it is, I would really love to see a trilogy of these old Indy flicks, with the last one capped off by an equally iconic finish.

They've definitely got the nostalgia factor working
by franklin t marmoset
Nice to see Karen Allen is back for this one. And, yes, she is looking very good.All I need now is confirmation that the decendant of that asshole nazi monkey is going to be making an appearance. Come on, monkey!
-
I wear a hat like that, and I don't have FU money.
-
...that it never worked out for Katie and Boon. I really thought they would go the distance, man.
-
I almost had a heart attack
-
Take a look at that stomach man! Either that's a body double in the poster, or he's holding his breath something chronic...
-
Ha! The WORST kind of monkey!
-
That would be awesome if they see each other again after a couple of years and Marion just hits him in the jaw again!
-
I'm gettin my tickets now!
-
There I said it............
-
I don't know about you fanboys out there but I gotta tell you, I'm a little dissapointed in the new Drew Struzan artwork for the posters. The large, silhouetted, worm's eye view of Indy is a just a tad bit conventional and not in keeping with the painterly style of his other examples. There is the painterly collage of previous indy images but the poster as a whole, just smacks of laziness and is largely unimaginative. The most promising example is the one where Indy is on the horse, but it doesn't make any logical sense with a younger, more buffed star. What's wrong with depicting an older Harrison Ford?
-
...I've nothing against Harrison having a gut - cranky old bastard's 65, of COURSE he's allowed a gut. I just don't think anyone should be making an Indiana Jones movie at this point. Hybrid16, you said "I'd much rather see an older Indy than Ford pretending to be a younger Indy and looking stupid", but the latter is exactly what you're gonna get. Harrison Ford's gonna be pretending to be about 15 years older than he was in Raiders Of The Lost Ark, when he's actually 26 years older. Shia LaBeouf should be playing his GRANDson, for crying out loud.
-
and she's also a very talented actress. I'm officially excited about this now.
-
Next year it's Indiana Jones. 4th parters I have no interest in watching, from trilogies (not anymore!) that I love. I'm betting the general consensus, by this time next year, will be: "Eh, it was alright..." and that's it.
-
There I said it.
-
hold on. this is set in 1957. last crusade was 1938 (I think) so thats what? 19 years? (I think...im crap with years) crusade was 89....uhhh...2007, subtract the 1. carry the 2....uhhh...18 years? (I think) so harrison is playing....20 years younger? no....must be...uuuh. I dont know when indy was officially born, but I dont think hes playing 15 years younger...maybe 10. and in all fairness, he can pull off mid fifties no problem. Most of you burger chomping cockmunchers wont make it to 40.
-
turns out Harrison Ford's gut just kicked the crap out of it.
-
INDY RULES!!! YOOOO EEESSSS AAAAAAE
-
What was all this talk about Ford getting in great shape for Indy 4? And how about Kathleen Kennedy having an orgasm over how "great" he looks now? I know the guy is old now but how about a little honesty?
-
With the exception of a bit of working out for Temple of Doom, Ford (and by extension, Jones) has never been a six-pack ab, biceps from hell kind of guy. He was, at most, in decent shape - no more than that.
Honesty? Here's some fucking honesty for you: go back and watch Raiders and Last Crusade and tell me he's fatter in this one than in those two. -
He is fatter than in any of the previous 3 installments. And despite working out for Temple of Doom, there are some shots where his gut is clearly exposed.
-
I hope for your sake he has not yet acquired it! Now they need to bring back Toht! So what if his face melted off!?
-
He looks good for 65. And he still looks like Indy.
-
You're deluding yourself. I watched the youtube clip and he looks great.
-
Excuse me while I rub one out!
-
on G4 last night and I practically fell out of my chair. Kudos to Spielberg for keeping this under wraps till now. Yea, I read the rumors, but its nice to know a suprise can still be sprung. And Karen Allen looks luminous in her Marion garb.
-
If you want to see Karen Allen's hey nanni-nannoo, buy or rent the 1984 film "Until September." It was the "Basic Instict" of its time. I can't recall how much sex was in it, but enough that some patrons walk out of the theater at my showing. Don't know why. Who wouldn't want to see Marion on top and riding the pony?
And Bronx Cheer, if your mom looks like that, send her over. I've got some treasure for her. -
I've seen the trilogy too many times. You can't argue with me.
-
I don't need to argue with you. Most of us own the trilogy and can see for ourselves.
-

Ford's midsection has always been sort of been thick (neither doughy nor super-cut). Yet he always seemed to be in good shape. Check out that apartment kitchen scene in BLADE RUNNER for a good comparison.At this point, I'd be more concerned over the condition of Harrison's knees than anything else.
-
imdb and indianajones.com
Wow, I can't get over how good she looks. Slightly thicker in the middle, but I'm down with that. Give me some. -
... what the fuck is going on with our astronauts?!
-
Great!!! Can't wait! The man with the hat is back!
-
with Steven, Karen and Harrison shows Karen demonstrating what she's gonna do to me with her mouth this weekend.
Seriously, though, is she handcuffed in those photos, or is it just my prurient, sexually depraved brain? -
Hey man, fords old, he's gonna have a gut. who cares
the movie is what counts and so far so good.
-
He's not a fat bastard by any means, and look at Connery in his later years. He was still able to more or less pull it off. No, if the tone and look is still there, and Harrison's heart is in it, then we'll have another good Indy film. Abom, those are indeed handcuffs. She likes it rougher as she's gotten older. Dirty little minx!
-
is 65 years old, and he looks damn good. Specially for living with a sexy 41 year old beanpole.
-
NOW, I say!
-
so if that's fat, I guess I'm fat. But he looked okay in that flick. No, he was never 'ripped,' but what college professor is? Jesus Christ, he's just a GUY, like John McClane. His occupation doesn't call for him to be ripped, nor do his extracurricular activities as an adventurer and "obtainer of fine antiquities" necessarily mean he'll be buff as a result. The only people who should be allowed to tease harrison about having a gut are people who are skinnier than he is. Or better yet, skinnier and over 50. Cut the guy some slack. For his pants.
-
...that "crazy lady" would be Margot Kidder. She's not crazy anymore btw.
Funny you mention her though. She and Spielberg used to live next door to one another on the same beach house in Malibu in the early '70's and even dated for awhile. -
. . . airing of the Spielberg message from the set. He, Ford, Winston . . .
You can't help but feel the positive vibe from the message; you could almost guess Spielberg was gonna say something like "this one's for the fans" something along those lines, 'specially being that this'll probably be the last Indy for Ford. Seems like they're having LOADS of fun in these prelim' filming stages. Ford and Spielberg look a little grey, admittedly. To me, the decision for Spielberg's making this fourth one is, "oh, OK, so, uh, heh, 2 and 3 wasn't to your liking? Ah, I see. You . . . you honestly think I've lost the magic, eh? Oh, heh, see, who put d'is t'ing togeder? Huh? Me, tha's who; who do I trust? ME!" This movie's gonna kick major.
At the end of the segment, Speilberg brings out a director's chair with, I believe I saw "Marion Ravenwood" emblazoned on the front of the chair's back support. And none other than Karen Allen comes out to join the crew -- doesn't look like she's aged a day from "Raiders."
And, heck, in old age? I'm looking FORWARD to the damn spaghetti arms and leg and fat belly. Church, damnit! -
does anyone remember the Indy retrospective a few years ago on the DVDs? Maybe it was the lights, but she looked like she aged. Maybe it was just a bad day...

Harrison Ford looks amazing for a man his age! Besides, Indy always was the rumpled everyman who get's into (and out of) extraordinary situations using his intellect and sheer determination. Now get out those oxygen tanks, fire up the scooter, tape the man-boobs down and get some fresh air. INDIANA FUCKIN' JONES people!!!
-
I would shoot my seed into her.
-
Old characters from the series reappearing... exotic Hawaii locations, pictures of South American pyramids, rumours about aliens. It looks more and more certain that this movie is inspired by the last couple of really weird Tintin adventures. Which is a good thing, that's basically like returning to the orginal source of Indiana Jones. I loved those books as a kid, and if Spielberg and Peter Jackson are making a Tintin movie trilogy afterwards, then it'll be like getting four Tintin movies in a row.
-
Is that bad?
-
Preach it like it is brother!
-
...back to back! You've got the crew, the sets and the cast all in place, now you just need to polish up Frank D's original script! It makes absolute sense from an economic, marketing standpoint. Think about it...
-
...Shia's sudden grunting in the video... heheheheeee Finky, I hate timezones. Besides, you don't really miss something if you're not able to take a look at the official site now, as you're travelling. Have a good trip. Is it in any way surprising that thousands of male geeks' got crazy over the appearance of the hero's most interesting FEMALE companion? Now just think of what's going on in our female cells when we see Harrison Ford in motion. Uh...Speaking of gender BS....don't Ray and Shia make a wonderful team giggling in the background? Their constant chatting and chuckling in the background is so sweet.
-
And again, oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy!
-
I tend to double all the last sentences of my posts in this TB... I guess it's the excitement...
-
Not adding much to this thread I know, but just wanted to reiterate the love for the great Ms. Allen. What a doll, what a trooper, and what fantastic news that she'll be duelling with Indy one more time. Let's hope she's a major part of the story and not just a token walk-on part - but my faith is with The 'Berg.
This news made me happy today. Roll on 2008.
Mikey -
I don't think they'd be spoiling a surprise if it's just a walk-on deal like this, but everything pointed to Cate Blanchette being the love interest in this one...
-
this was the last piece of the puzzle that i was waiting for. thank god! How could you do an Indy movie like this without Marion? GO MARION! GO INDY!
-
especially the ones where we can see what others saw at San Diego. Appreciate everyone.

New Hasbro Indy figures finally unveiled:

Remove spaces as per usual.

....check back to the last 2 Indy films, he had one then too. Kind of made him a better hero in my opinion, not a super fit chiseled jawed macho man - just a man doing a job to the best of his ability...same sort of reason I liked Brendan Frasier in 'The Mummy' - again he was no superman.
-
Where ya been?!? Ya never call, ya never wrote....

But shit?....where's his whip?!...looks like the toy has the pose for it, guess someone forgot to pack it for the flight...DOH!

Not that y'all give a rats ass about my dreams, but after seeing the pics of Karen Allen with the gang last night, I was guite excited.
...anyway, in my dream last night, I dreamt that I was at that panel, but the stars were there in person. Spielberg and Ford were there and everyone was in huge anticipation of some new info. As Spielberg said there was another character... out comes Kate Capshaw dressed in full "Anything Goes" sequined red dress and full musical number. The crowd started booing, and Spielberg says... "I'm Just Kidding", and out comes Karen Allen and everyone cheers...
I woke up and was laughing to myself for about half an hour before I could go back to sleep. Would have been so cool if thay had done that.
-
as Kate Capshaw's his fucking WIFE, it's unlikely to happen. Mind you, wearing that cap is reason enough for divorce on its own. That's a hat that says only one thing "My name is Steven Spielberg and I frankly don't give a shit what you think about my millinery arrangements". In other news, Karen Allen looks fine. Now, where's Alison Doody?
-
Thanks for that photo. She is beautiful. Way to age gracefully. She looks the same to these old eyes. I had no interest in this movie, hence never posting on the talkbacks, but now that she is back, well, I'll probably be there opening week. I never liked the two after Raiders as much due to her absence. Funny that, but it's true. Yea! Karen Allen is back! Hopefully Marion'll clock Indy for old time's sake.
-
Thats what made it so damn funny!
-
With all the excitement of this movie I bet Michael Douglas will try to resurrect the Romancing the Stone movies. I hope that there is a law against that.

Can the Boomer generation just die already please???
by and nicolas cage as fu manchu
We get it. You're old but you're not irrelevant dammit!!! Yes, 60 year old men can remain sex symbols!!! (barf) I swear, the culture is in decline or something. Endless nostalgic obsessions with former successes instead of dreams of a better tomorrow. It's frustrating. Do we REALLY need a sequel to Raiders ~25 years after the original? Can we just move on please? Write another story for Christ's sake.That said, Karen Allen looks nice. It would almost be worth it if they were going to reboot the series with Indy and Marion's son (not played by Shia LeBouf), and have the two of them remain out of the action for the most part. But as is, I am skeptically optimistic. It can't be any worse than the Prequels...
-
...that hasn't been said above already, exept that this is finally really starting to look and feel like the start of something great, and it sure ain't just me thinking so judging by the comments, so here's hoping. And I have to agree, time does seem to have been very kind to Karen Allen, and so glad to see she's in this. Mrfan - 'Hope there's a law', indeed...
-
from before the first photo to now. Maybe it's just my imagination but I remember a lot more cynisism (myself included). Spielberg and company are certainly playing the P.R. game like champs. They even have me excited for one last adventure.
-
She could be in The Wanderers II: Revenge of the Ducky Boys.
-
For those who are worried that Spielberg is making this more for the fans than himself, I personally think this is GOOD. War Of The Worlds was one of his own personal ambitions and look how lame it turned out (bar a couple of effects sequences). He's making this for the fans. Last Crusade was made in the same way, I'm sure. If it even comes close to Last Crusade quality I will be pleased.
-
Once again, Jones, what was briefly yours is now mine. What a fitting end to your life that you should be buried down here.
-
I didn't get excited for this movie until I saw these photos. I love Marion Ravenwood! Kate irritated me, and who the hell knows who the dame was in Crusade?
"I'm your God damned partner!!" -
Can't see hardly any of the cool stuff. DAMN YOU BLACKBERRIES! All you kids have fun at Comic Con. This darn BB just adds insult to injury that I have to travel and can't be there with some fellow Indyfans.
-
Gobler, wake your men! just another for IndiAbbey.
-
who the hell cares. I want to see some "not hot" on the screen once in a while. I can turn on the tv any time if I want to see hot, I see too much hot. They're all starting to look the same to me. If she looks hot, fine, if not awesome! I am so sick of kid actors and actresses with those stupid lips.
-
Or was that merely a passing comment about a potential one for. IndyIV that has yet to be seen?
-
ok - now i am REALLY excited.

its already been said, i have to say it again, Karen Allen looks fantastic. she looks EXACTLY the same. so cool to see her in this!
-
This is nothing but good folks. Enjoy it. Thanks Quint! Wish I coulda been there live. This is great.
-
Thanks a million for posting that, George Newman. It actually made me laugh out loud. Everyone should really check it out. Of course the bad news is, the way Lucas re-edits and softens things, it might not be far off the mark for what George does next time around!
-
You know, who cares if she had any so-called work done or if she just naturally looks glowing because she's been away from the Hollywood grind for an extended period and is simply all the better rested and aged for it? I don't care, I'm just happy she's back. She looks fantastic in the Quicktime clip and in the official still, so like all other geeks I'm ecstatic to see her back since it instantly makes this new film "feel" right -- far more so than any other addition could have added to the film's appeal.As a result, seeing her back and suited up -- much like seeing Ford the same way -- goes straight to the heart strings of every movie fan, and I think that's the real reason you're seeing so much love being poured out for her. It just feels great to see them together again, to see them looking good together despite the years apart, and it just makes all hopes rise even more that maybe...just maybe...they'll get this thing right.Well, I think that's why there's so much love being show. Unless I'm mistaken about a whole shitload of you and you really DO have a private MILF fetish that you've been hiding!
-
By the way, in reading this Talkback, I noticed how more than a few fessed up to having had a teenage hormonal surge when first seeing RAIDERS and Marion in her white gown. In wanting to check out something about Karen Allen, I went to IMDB and discovered something.If you go to her Photo Gallery and to Picture 8, you'll find a verrrrrrry nice shot of her in the RAIDERS gown. I can't recall seeing it before, but I'm sure it will inspire many here to relive their teenage warmth in the theater.Best of all, you can now look at her in the privacy of your own home, which means you also don't have to shift that large bucket of popcorn over your lap to hide anything awkward...ahem!
-
If I offended you, than I am sorry. Ok, I think I've used that rather odd quote before. Just wanted to ease your pain. Seriously, enjoy your trip. Even though it may be business-related. But it's even getting worse. That new video on the official site is amazing. David Koepp sitting in his freaking chair...rewriting stuff. And then....Jones in the classroom, Indy in full gear (plus the jacket) and a sweaty dirty face (rrrrr) in the jungle. Even if some of that footage is from in between takes, my heart almost explodes at their sight.
-
The video, especially the appearance of Karen Allen, was like a huge shot of nostalgia, I'd just woken up and it was almost overwhelming. It's rare to feel like a kid again, even momentarily. I hope the film is a worthy addition, and I don't see why not,
Spielberg is still a great director when he's working with the right material. He's probably the most technically proficiant director in the world, Munich was awesome, he just needs the right script. See the much maligned War of the Worlds for example, stunning first half, then falls apart due to a weak story. Anyway, Indy 4 and John Rambo next year, fuck yeah! -
Karen Allen too.
-
but it would've been better to see a return of the Willie Scott & Short Round. They played like a real family in Temple of Doom. And how old was Marion when Indy shagged her? Something tells me he would've made an appearance on To Catch A Predator.
-
Maybe Spielberg will have him jump the mechanical Jaws.

Did you guys see Jon Favreau's interview with O. Munn?
by bringingsexyback
He looked like he totally wanted to titfuck her. I don't blame him.
-
with Ford. He would've been a great Indy Jr.
-
Spielberg said the title of the film, but it was muted out. I didn't catch it, but it sure as anything WASN'T 'The City of the Gods'. Anyway, love the new behind-the scenes video. Anyone else notice the portrait of Marcus Brody in the corridor?
-
Seriously he does a bit in these warped and blurry pics but he always looks kind of fat in his films. Take 6 Days Seven Nights, when he had his t shirt on, he looked a bit bloated but when he was topless, he was lean and had a sixpack, he always looks a little 'thick' but its pure muscle.
-
A couple of extra Hasbro figures for the Indy line at Rebelscum.
http://www.rebelscum.com/SDCC07/HasbroSWpresentation/image69.asp
But how do you get the ark? -
Why do that AICN?...url's aren't that long for crying out loud...no longer than half a sentence that most people post.
-
If Lucas finally agreed to do these, with as many members of the Original Trilogy cast as possible, it would be a golden opportunity to completely erase the damage done by certain elements of the Prequels.
Hell, I'm not even a Prequel hater anyway, and I would even permit a cameo from Jar Jar Binks as an aging leader or something, if only they would make 7, 8 & 9... Can you even begin to imagine the web of fantastic possibilities in a new series of Star Wars SEQUELS??!! -
...if you don't fancy visiting a non existent site due to the trademarked AICN bablefish.
-
This could be something real special.
-
too bad carrie fisher hasnt aged as good as karen allen has. or her face anyways. her hands and arms look kinda wrinkly in the legit pic i saw. what if they hired new actors to play the elder parts of luke, leia, lando and han? or possibly did a cgi version of the characters ala ghostbusters III or that fake new republic trailer. the dr seuss movie animation doesn't look half bad. how would you feel if they did them any of those ways?
-
Nice portrait of Marcus.
-
On the crate on the main page of the offical site(indianajones.com) the number 9906573 is written. If you insert this number as a URL (adding.com to the end)you get the wikipedia page for the ark of the covenant.....hmmm....maybe the ark is a about to make a reappearence after all..... or perhaps I'm looking for clues in everything since cloverfield/Dark Knight campaigns!!
-
i wonder what else there is to be found on that site? and what does this exactly mean? is it the arc again?
-
Go get those clues! And while you're at it, can you do some work on Cloverfield/1-18-01/Slusho?
-
Thank you... yup working on cloverfield, but been pipped on everything i've found so far..... could you go to the newer thread for Indy and make a comment as some guy is determined to sh*t all over this find!
-
Ah, the irony of back to back posts sometimes. Up above, Allie Jamison, you wrote: "That new video on the official site is amazing. David Koepp sitting in his freaking chair, rewriting stuff"......Only to immediately be followed by your post, C Legion, where you wrote: "Spielberg is still a great director when he's working with the right material. He's probably the most technically proficiant director in the world. MUNICH was awesome, he just needs the right script. See the much maligned WAR OF THE WORLDS for example -- stunning first half, then falls apart due to a weak story."The irony being that War of the Worlds WAS written by Koepp.Man, as an old time Indy fan, I really want this to be good. And WOTW really DID suck ass, in no small part due to a totally shitty script. So now more than ever I REALLY hope the rumors are true that they're using like 90%-plus of Frank Darabont's script for this thing...
-
I swear, I generally suck at mystery puzzles (which would also explain why I prefer first person shooters like HALO over games like MYST), so I totally salute you for discovering that. I wouldn't have even thought in a million years to plug in the numbers that way. Way to go!In fact, when you really stop and think about it, for all the viral marketing that goes on these days (like Cloverfield) where they want you to try and solve online clues so it will take you to a new web site or give you a new reveal, what BETTER property could you possibly have to leave a bread crumb trail then a new Indiana Jones movie? Over the next year, I'm sure Paramount/ Lucas/ Spielberg will plant a ton of stuff to outdo all the other studios/movies in the viral creativity department...
-
And Karen Allen looks like she lost some of the weight she was packing in the "Where Are They Now" faux-documentary on the Animal House Double Secret Probation edition DVD. Not that she wasn't still pretty, but I guess being in a new movie would make me hit the Stair Master too.
-
I too miss Sallah.
-
but not as great as Comic Con. ;)
