Fuck yes. Please make it about Indy fighting Dracula, the Wolfman, and Frankenstein, because why the fuck not.

 

[torre_avenue]

Not like this.
Just recast him now, instead of killing him in 2019 and re-casting him then. I'm all for the power of suspending belief but this is ridiculous. The man is going to be 75 when they start filming for this, and there's no 75 year old I know of that is spry enough to combat whole legions of bad guys.

 

[Tirod]

Kind of surprised we are getting another Ford Indy film since Internet discourse loves to talk about casting Indy in a reboot.

I'm cool with this news so long as they learned some lessons from the fourth film.

 

[NealMcCauley]

Crystal Skull was garbage but I'm interested in this for some reason.

That's about how I feel.

Now we only have to know how involved Lucas will be. He wasn't even mentioned in the press release so maybe not very much.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Crystal Skull was garbage but I'm interested in this for some reason.

This is my same feelings. Its Indiana Jones so I am hyped no matter what.

 

[brandonh83]

I like how one meh installment makes some people not think they can't do better next time.

 

[-griffy-]

I mean, you gotta be at least curious in a post-Lucas Lucasfilm-produced Indiana Jones flick, right? It's a Spielberg directed, Kennedy/Marshall produced Indiana Jones film starring Harrison Ford, after all.

 

[massoluk]

How? Hasn't Harrison Ford suffered enough at the hands of his children?

 

[celebi23]

After 4, I'm not sure about this.

 

[SillyEskimo]

What time frame are we looking at with this one? Vietnam?

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

What?

Sure, screw it, give it to me, I love Indy.

 

[Übermatik]

VERY CAUTIOUSLY OPTIMISTIC.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

More time for Mutt then.

Remind me, who is Mutt again?

 

[Sheroking]

Well, it's an odd-numbered Indiana Jones - so it will probably be great.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Nah, I am fine with A Thief's End.

 

[TheXbox]

Enough of this nonsense about Shia, bring back Short Round! He is the true successor to the whip.

 

[daveo42]

I'm fully prepared for CG Indiana with Ford doing VA this time around. Still, this whole thing sounds like a terrible mistake.

 

[Liamario]

Ford was fine in Star Wars, but for Indiana Jones this might be pushing it a little.

He was already pushing it in 4 and that will be nearly 15 years prior to this when it gets released.

 

[JimJamJones]

 

[Batjag]

Yes!! Bring it! I love these movies.

 

[sphagnum]

Maoist China could be a cool opponent but there's no way they'll do it.

Blade Runner 2 coming in 2018

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

Realtalk, I'd love a proper full blown Atlantis movie, like Fate of Atlantis.

 

[Sojgat]

 

[UnforgivenTwin]

I'm excited.

 

[Ydelnae]

Ford can't be the main character, but will be really get Shia again? I hope they act like the 4th one was a bad dream, like FFX-2 lol

 

[Currygan]

I would too, but 20 years ago

A monkey with a leather jacket

 

[SeanC]

I'm down.

I didn't hate Crystal Skull as much as some. It was over the top and dumb like most Indy movies though it lacked that one element to really define it (a tank sequence or a bridge sequence or "throw me the idol" moment). Overall a mediocre movie, but not a bad one I found and if they're all down to come back, I'm down to see it.

If anything, redemption. Just get a good writer who understands the point of the character.

 

[sarcastor]

There was a fourth movie?

Spoiler

I refuse to acknowledge it's existence

 

[The Elite]

I can see them taking an extremely similar approach to The Force Awakens

In the case of Indiana Jones they would be better taking it the reboot route.

 

[Space Runaway]

More senior citizen Indiana Jones seems like a bad idea at this point...but I know I'll see it regardless. I'm guessing this will be set up as a torch passing movie of some sort.

 

[Enduin]

I want to believe. Give me Temple of Doom 2.

[DKHF]

Inhumans is scheduled for July 12, 2019... Guessing it will be moved so this doesn't cannibalise its box office. And even if they are different enough movies they would eat into each others' audiences, which Disney won't want.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

I would too, but 20 years ago

Roll on the second indy son for the action scenes

 

[Already Torn]

Is Harrison Ford even going to be able to walk around by then?

That's what the last one was!

 

[brianmcdoogle]

Crystal Skull was horrible. This everyone can agree.

But here is my controversial opinion: Shia was the best thing in that movie.

That would be fine, but I'm not sure if Spielberg has the balls. It does make more sense though with Blade Runner.

[mreddie]

It belongs in a museum.

 

[Griss]

We're at the stage now where any action movie greenlit that doesn't involve superheroes gets a cheer from me, no matter how desperate.

So...

yaaaay....

 

[Pamplemousse]

WHAT?! Why is he returning? It's time for him to stop. I wanted Shia to be the next Indie.

 

[amnesiac]

"Part-time" still cracks me up

 

[sphagnum]

Maybe they'll recast Mutt with Chris Pratt.

 

[Father_Brain]

Oh dear god WHY

 

[El Daniel]

Part Time!

 

[Freewheelin']

Fucking hell, a 75 year old headlining an action film. Incredible.

 

[Pluto]

I want another Indiana Jones movie but I want the part recast and for the movie to take place in the 1930s. Harrison Ford can cameo as Indy's grandpa at this point, he's that old.

I have no idea why they're so against recasting, ot has worked for James Bond for decades.
