Harrison Ford Next Plays An Egghead In CROWLEY!!
I am – Hercules!!
Harrison Ford’s follow-up to “The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” and the immigrant drama “The Crossing” is “Crowley,” a drama based on the true story of a scientist searching for the cure for a rare genetic disorder affecting two young siblings.
It’s a big-screen project for CBS Films, based on "The Cure: How a Father Raised $100 Million--And Bucked the Medical Establishment--In a Quest to Save His Children" by Geeta Anand. Tom Vaughan (“What Happens In Vegas”) may direct from a screenplay by Robert Nelson Jacobs (“Out To Sea,” “Chocolat” “The Shipping News,” “The Water Horse”).
Read all of Variety’s Monday-morning story on the matter here.

or was there a link to an old 1997 article about Episode I on the main page?
-
Now that'd be a movie I'd watch.
AC: Madam, I have a possible cure for your son.
Mom: Great! Wait...son? Both are sick!
AC: Yes, well, it involves a blood sacrifice to the Old Ones, so you'll have to pick one.
Yep. Good family entertainment. -
You may, in fact, be retarded. However, you did see the current news revert back to 1997 for a few minutes.
-
that answers half of my questions. now to see about that first one...
-
Actually, he's following up Crystal Skull with Crossing Over.
-
I'd watch that!
-
That does not sound like a Harrison Ford movie.. I see that Indy made another pile of money this weekend. Skull looks like it's going to catch up with iron man..
-
But only after I saw him KOTCS.
-
Would have been much more interesting.
-
Damn I love that movie's ending. It gets me every time.
-
Boy I sure hope Salah shows up and gives him back his fucking fedora
-
I hope he points the Finger of Doom at the Medical Establishment. Moral Outrage for the win here, people.
-
Terrible title for a movie if it's not about the Great Beast. I mean, that's usually the first thing that most people think of when they hear that name, right?
-
always falls funny. i mean he completely spazs out when he falls over. compare patriot games to how he falls when ducking form a car bomb and indy and the skull, when he gets pushed over. toio much exageration. just fall over man!
anyhow this movie sounds cool. i might even go to amazon and get the book -
Make it now!
-
Ah, never mind.......
-
the wizard

I got really excited by this announcement, thinking that FINALLY, there was going to be a decent, historically accurate biopic on the life of Aleister Crowley, shot in the tone and quality of a Merchant-Ivory production, with fine actors, production, detail and writing. WHY, OH WHY HASN'T THIS HAPPENED? Few have such a fascinating, varied, exotic and excessive life as Crowley. DAMN IT HOLLYWOOD! GIVE ME THE CASH AND TIME AND I'LL MAKE A MASTERPIECE FOR YOU! Guaranteed!
-
I had a vision of this! THIS is what makes a cure possible...
Sorry, no interest in this. Just came by to drop a pathetic Nuke reference. Have a good day, all. I love you. -
Man, Ford sure can't pick em.
-
it would need to be trilogy. The first would cover his young years and his work in the golden Dawn. The Sequel would cover his global trips and his "encounter" with Aiwass in Cairo,and the third part would be his latter years and the people who would carry his mantle (Jack Parsons, Kenneth Grant, Ron Hubbard, Motta, Gerald Gardner in america with the Caliphate Austin Osman Spare) So you see todo a movie on Crowley proper it would have to be epic and cover almost three generations. AND IT WOULD MAKE A LOT OF MONEY.......
-
Where did I here that Ford made a historical drama about the search for John Wilkes Booth? Still, I like it when Ford goes for different roles. One of his best was 'Regarding Henry."

Forget this, give me Indy 5 while Ford still can feature
by barnaby jones
then he can go back to making all the boring crap like he has for the last 10 years.
-
Let the production begin! Aleister was so much more than the cliche he has become in the mass media. Beatnik before Beatniks. The last of the Romantics. A Rebel with a cause. An iconoclast with reason. An individual among conformists. A master of mountains. A dabbler of extremes for inner awakening....
LET ME DIRECT A MOVIE THAT CAPTURES THE MAN AND HIS FASCINATING LIFE! -
I highly recommend that piece of crap "Chemical Wedding" that Bruce Dickinson just put out, or some lonelygirl15 webisodes. I'm quite sure that Crowley would be just thrilled at the thought of some dip-shit on these forums directing the story of his life.
-
the Star Wars remake? anyone?
-
Does Variety think it's saving lots of space by getting rid of "The" in sentences? Starting sentences like "Film is based on..." or "Project had been set up at..." just makes them seem like incredibly lazy journalists. I hate reading that rag.
-
to me anyways.

HEY HARRISON wanna know how to stop your chlidren from having ge
by perromaldito
Stop fucking your own doughter you incestuous freak!!!
-
genetic disorders
-
"I have a bad feeling about this"
-
Corpse and they just throw him around in movies? Because he's got to be one tough old man with all the beatings he gets in his old age. I wanna see John Hurt vs. Ian McKellen in an ole timely british gangster movie, where they are rival gangs leaders and it ends with an all out old man bare knuckles fight.
-
I'd also go for Old West prospectors, dueling wizards, or bedraggled survivalists living in separate cabins in the woods.
-
That's right! I am a dipshit! Thank you for your observations. It's... it's almost as if you know me well enough to insult me... SPOOKY, MAN!!!
-
sounds like Lorenzo's Oil. Which was one of the most sleep inducing films ever.
-
This should be a sequel to "Hatchet" with Harrison as old old man Crowley...
-
He was a fucking satanist child rapist, people...but if Ozzy sings about him its ok...WTF
-
Really, Aleister Crowley was a child rapist? Where did you glean that piece of mis-information from? His life would make a great movie, and not by a metal band singer. 'Chemical Wedding' was only any good because of Simon Callow.
-
Crowley only ate children*, never raped one. And please don't take offense mystic_dreamer. I include myself in the list of dip-shits that would love to make a Crowley film that would probably make TO MEGA THERION spin in his grave. I think it's a story best left to text, and the imagination.
93- -
Seriously? Did you watch Indy 4? Jesus, I wish I could delude myself like some of these guys here.
-
Alright, come on boys (and gals), for those of you who are fans of Indy, the true Indy, the one that was only hinted at in KOTCS, you deserve to know the truth about what Darabont had in store for us. We need to start pestering Moriarty, we know he read it, and liked it, so why not give us the scoop on what was there, what wasn't. I am going to start trolling around and posting this on other talkbacks to drum up support, now...WHO IS WITH ME?!?!?!
-
Ford: "I'll do it, but I need you to hire ten top writers to make my character stronger."
Producer: "Done!"
Ford: "Great! Now how about that $20 million plus 10 percent?"
Producer: "Uh, yeah, about that..."
Ford: "Thought so. Guess it's back to my helicopter and bong. Later!"
Producer: (dials phone)
Michael Douglas: (groggy) "Hullo...?" -
So far that sounds like a more interesting movie. This sounds a lot like Lorenzo's Oil.
-
and Harrison Ford ride a white horse.
-
IND-I-ANA, Motherfuckin' JONES!
IND-I-ANA,
Fuckin' JONES!
INDIANA, your GRAMMA, slammed INDIANA JONES!!! -

Harrison Ford is one of the Greatest Movie Icons of All Time!
by thegrayghost
That's why it was sad to see him play this old guy with a hat and whip in that Crystal Skulls movie. That was NOT Indie folks! What happened to Dr. Jones! :(
-
Damn you and damn Spielberg for making a subpar Indiana Jones movie! Stop writing stories Lucus and just be the idea guy ... without final say. You two have been too comfortable with your past successes and billion dollar bank account. Neither of you have anything inspirational or new to say in film. Thank you for giving us geeks some of the greatest films back in the day; but nowadays, you two lack energy, that uncertainty, and that needing to prove yourself type of desperation that fueled your genius prior. You guys are too comfortable and you no longer experiment or take risks.
