Why am I not surprised?

 

[Spider-Fan]

I Knew It!!!

 

[The Man of Steel]

Why even call it Indiana Jones
it'd have to be called Mutt Willaims

 

[Mr. Socko]

Can you believe this man use to be a visionary? Now he simply pimps out anything he's partially involved in. A Clone Wars series to be released this summer, followed by two more Star Wars television shows. Now a spin off Mutt Jones series

Twisted old Lucas has become. He's now more machine than man.

 

[Addendum]

I thought he was more neck

 

[Nivek]

The movie hasn't even been released yet. Shia surprised alot of people in Transformers, maybe he can carry on the film series.

Not Indiana Jones though. Come on. Not even River Pheonix could have done that.

 

[Mr. Superhero]

I'm not even a fan of Indiana Jones, but the thought of Harrison Ford being played second fiddle to some other dude seems plain wrong for, well, an Indiana Jones movie.

I like Lucas for giving us Star Wars, but he's going f****** insane.

 

[DarknessOfDeath]

Leave it as it is, LUCAS!! gawd.

 

[Spider-Fan]

People said "Oh no, don't worry about Lucas. He is not that involved", and to that I point to the article and say HA!!! I WAS RIGHT!!!

Indy 4 = Vehicle for Shia!!!

More fuel for the fire.

Spielberg eyes more Indiana films

Steven Spielberg has said he is happy to make another Indiana Jones movie if fans enjoy the long-awaited fourth film, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

The director is in Cannes, joining stars Harrison Ford, Cate Blanchett and Shia LaBeouf at the film's premiere.

Asked at a press conference if he wanted to make another film, he said: "Only if you want more.

"That's why we made this Indiana Jones. We'll certainly have our ear to the ground to hear what happens."

"That'll decide were we go from here," Spielberg added.

Reporters got to see the film - the first Indiana Jones movie in 19 years - at an official screening ahead of the premiere.

The BBC's Mark Savage said it was "very much in the style of the first three films". "The set-piece stunts are second to none," he added.

"There's also a sly acknowledgement of internet rumours that that Shia LaBeouf will take over the franchise," he continued.
Early reviews have been mixed - British movie magazine Empire's Damon Wise said it was "a slick, fun film", while the Daily Telegraph's David Gritten called it "undeniably creaky".

But leading man Ford, now 65, said he was not afraid of what critics thought.

"I expect to have the whip turned on me. It is not unusual for something that is popular to be disdained by some people and I fully expect it," he said.

"I'm not really worried about it. I work for the people who pay to get in - they are my customers. "My focus is on providing the best experience I can for those people."

Ford, who made his debut in the role in 1981's Raiders of the Lost Ark, described the new film as a "celebration of the movies".

He added that he was delighted to see it create such a stir at Cannes, with fans holding up signs saying "need Indy ticket".

"I'm delighted that we have the opportunity to release a film now because for a couple of generations, young people have just been seeing this on DVD at home," he said.

"Now we get the chance to see it in the cinema, where it's meant to be seen. I'm very excited about that."

The film opens in 1957 at the height of the Cold War, and that the hero is on the search for a solid gold skull stolen from a lost city and guarded by the living dead.

Spielberg tried to make the film using old-fashioned B-movie techniques, rather than computer graphics, in keeping with the original trilogy.
Scenes in the trailer show Ford make a joking reference to his age.

"This isn't as easy as I remember," he quips.

The movie has its UK release on 22 May.

Dammit it knew this would happy its Indiana Jones! he should always be the lead!!

 

[Cinemaman]

I think I should watch the fourt movie first to judge whether should it get more sequels or no. But, yeah, Lucas just uses the same machine of money making by spreading what's left after such popular franchises as Indy and SW. I won't be surprised, if tomorrow he announces about new BTTF sequel

 

[RonStoppablefan]

Hey I'm a fan of both Shia and the movies, should I be happy about this or shouldn't I?

 

[Jspider13]

shia...biggest young movie star in the world?


who would have guessed while watching even stevens...

 

[Cinemaman]

Shia is indeed a new hollywood star, but he is not a typical one, because of his selection of projects.

 

[Apollo]

but then it wouldn't be called Indiana Jones

 

[Jspider13]

i wonder if he'll ever do small indie films...it would give him a chance to show some new range.

 

[Cinemaman]

but then it wouldn't be called Indiana Jones

Yes, it will be "Mutt Williams"

 

[Nivek]

Or Mutt Jones: And the Radioactive Bones of Ho Chi Min

 

[Cinemaman]

Or Mutt Jones: And the Radioactive Bones of Ho Chi Min

But his family name is Williams, not Jones.
