ANOTHER Indiana Jones Movie

[ZenTickling]

Just read that Harrison Ford wants to play Indy again. Apparently Spielberg and Lucas already have a storyline planned out.

All I can say is 'wow'.

The first two were decent movies.After that the franchise went down hill like a large boulder on a steep slope..Do these guys just need a paycheck or what?

This franchise is going from obnoxious to retarded.

Lucas pretty much jumped the shark with the phantom menace and from there we saw his integrity slowly dwindling to nothing.

Spielberg lost it when he decided to do war of the worlds.

Ford obviously hasn't gotten over that mid life chrisis that caused him to leave his loving wife, shack up with an annorexic has-been, and make Hollywood Homicide with "pizza face whatz-iz-name."

My respect for the Indiana Jones chronicles was dangling by a frayed thread over thin ice when I saw the "Chrystal Skull" but I managed to like it just enough not to throw my DVD rack through my TV.

It might be a good idea to limber up the 'ol chuckin' arm right now.

"Raiders" was great.
"Temple" was eh.
"Crusade" was excellent.
"Skull" was stupid (they traded supernatural for paranormal. Poor choice.)

A fifth? It's gotta' be something really tough, though... No more of these ancient artifacts -- I want something really hard to find...

"Indiana Jones and The Hunt for Osama Bin Laden"
"Indiana Jones and The Search for Kanye West's Class"
"Indiana Jones and The Quest for a Moderate Republican"
"Indiana Jones and The Worth of Jar-jar Binks"
"Indiana Jones and Civil Political Discourse"
"Indiana Jones and The Failed Bank CEO Who Refused His Bonus"
"Indiana Jones and The Woman who slept with Andy Dick"

This is just a painful idea. That last movie was a waste of money. Really can't they let the classic stay that and not destroy a great character

Harrison Ford playing Indiana Jones isn't a bad idea. There are five problems with Indiana Jones and it started with the Crystal Skulls.

Problem one, George Lucas. Way too much of this asshole involved. After the Star Wars incident this man cannot be trusted with beloved characters.

Problem two, Sheyaya LeBoufe. I think we agree and can move on.

Problem three, no Sean Connery. Stop being a baby, work for a few days of your retirement, get a ton of money, and join the cast. They need you.

Problem four, no John Rhys-Davies. Why are you not in this movie?

Problem five, Marion. Why is she frumpy and retarded?

Lets not blame The Berg or his Beard for The Crystal Skulls. The man makes awesome movies. If given total control while avoiding problems 1-5 The Berg would deliver on a new installment.

Spielberg lost it when he decided to do war of the worlds.

He made Munich after that. So technically he didn't lose it after War of the Worlds. 2 of his last 3 movies were bad, maybe he's just in a slump? Hopefully.

I love the tag for this thread. 🙂

But anyway, the 5th movie should be titled "Indiana Jones and the Bucket List"

You can't be surprised really. Hollywood is based on greed, there is no substance. 'Halloween 2' is coming out soon, a remake of a sequel and you know what? They'll probably remake the whole Halloween series.

Why?

Cuz adding sequels, recycling and remaking film proves far more successful than actually taking the time to think of an original idea. Big production companys would rather finance and release something they know will probably be a success, then risk an original idea flopping on its ass. Did somebody say the "Saw" franchise?

I liked War of the Worlds, except for the 'happy' ending. The latest Indiana Jones wasn't the worst movie I've ever seen, but it didn't seem to fit into the series well. Plus there were some really stupid and implausible scenes (I'll survive a nuke if I crawl into a refrigerator!). This movie is going to happen, Ford is just waiting to approve the script. I can't see this being good at all.

They ruined Indy with Crystal Skull. Maybe they feel they need some redemtion.
