Is this symbolic of a greater trend in our culture that there's nothing new? Everything is recycled from a past decade. Whether it's political leaders or action movie stars or economic concepts, it's all the boomers and the generation before them, silent generation?
Do we have to wait another 2 decades for them all to die out before we can get some new ideas...
Did we run out of talent and new action stars, or is everything gate kept by an aging population that hoards everything?

Not hard to have Ford drink it and then transition into Chris Pratt.

But that'll just make it look like Logan. It just needs a good script and it'll be fine. At least this one will have good writers. I hope they've set up snipers to keep George Lucas away from the set.

Indiana Jones needs to die in this film, how can it possibly go on beyond this film given his age?
If you watch Harrison Ford interviews on Han Solo and Indiana Jones he says he wants them killed off, he got his wish with Han Solo and will get it with Indy 6.
I just hope its done in a really good way, like Logan, not saying the film needs to play out like Logan but it should have pathos to that effect given how long the Indiana Jones film series is.
The worst thing that can happen would be some goofy third rate action flick much like Crystal Skull

Next thing:
You will see him crying on set because he realizes that the whole Indiana Jones franchise was destroyed in two movies

I don't think Indiana Jones is the type of thing that needs pathos. He doesn't even need to die, just retire. Maybe a good compromise would be to cut off his legs.

I re-watched KotCS on New Year’s. I hate to admit that I liked it more than the first time. It doesn’t hold a candle to the previous Indy movies, but it’s kinda watchable when you already know about the fridge scene.

Also sorta related but I watched a YT video on Temple of Doom and Lucas was wild, hidden lost world in China, Indy escaping from Nazi's on a motorbike alongside the Great Wall. Would have been fucking AMAZING.
Is this why Tomb Raider 2 has two T-Rex's at the bottom of the Great Wall level?

Yeah like Harrison Fords real legs when they got cut off in that plane crash.

I just watched the 4K version of the first movie on Apple TV. Looked very good. I don't have a 4K Blu-Ray player yet so I decided to buy them digitally.

The best part is calling it forgettable when it has the most memorable moments of any film in the franchise.

I am a huge fan of the OG Indy trilogy, but from what I've read about this one they are going full on woke. I don't even think Harrison Ford is the main lead.

It's literally the director of Logan and Ford vs. Ferrari (not to mention 3:10 to Yuma). Those are totally out of touch and emasculating movies....

The writer is woke personified. That's what matters.

Mangold re-wrote it.
Indiana Jones 5 Producer Promises Harrison Ford is the Only Indy
Producer Frank Marshall updates us on the status of Indiana Jones 5, and Harrison Ford's status in the iconic role.

It's Mangold so it has a shot. Anyone who says Last Crusade sucks or his over rated is not my friend

I don't get why they always have to make him look exactly the same. We already did this with Indy 4.
Do something DIFFERENT. At this point, Phoebe will probably be the better part of the movie.

I hope its better than Crystal Skull. Though it'll take something special to surpass Raiders or Crusade.
The odd Indies are the good ones, so there’s hope for 5!

Temple of Doom is silly, but fun. A lot of today's movies wish they were as memorable as Temple of Doom.

I have always liked Temple of Doom. Its just as good as the other two. I hope they bring back Short Round in this movie.

I have a very sad feeling they're going to just wokeify this movie.
Not touching it until I hear otherwise. Can you blame me?

The writer/director's previous two movies should convince you otherwise.

She never had creative control, though. She was Associate Producer.
It's when she started Producing films where things went wrong. She fell off the coat tails.

When Kathleen Kennedy showed up I laughed.
I want indy to be a perpetual 20's/30's adventurer, I don't need an actual life arc for him.
Or at least do a clean reboot, so any "young indy" actor isn't stuck doing a Harrison Ford impression as their won't be any direct connection.
There is SO MUCH in the early indy years they could hit on. How he was influenced (good and bad) by his mentors in grad school, his illicit relationship with a teenaged Marion, the struggle between greed/fame and genuine interest in saving/understanding the mythic past juxtaposed on the colonial "take it from the savages and put it in a museum where ideological fanatics won't destroy it or hide it away" attitudes.
All the pulp action, paired with legit stunts and good effects, is very refreshing in a cgi dominated world, plus it could have camp without needing to be pandering to modern sensibilities. Strong women who are still women, mustache twirling bad guys with actual mustaches, and a legit awe of the exotic that folks still crave even in a global marketplace.

If there is a time travel plot and Indy ends up in WWII with Nazis, I wonder if that's why Spielberg walked away to let Mangold do it. Spielberg said he wouldn't do "cartoon" Nazis after Schindler's List, which is why Indy 4 was set in the late 50s and why the Roger Rabbit prequel was killed.

Yes indeed. That and apparently he just wasn't happy with the scripts (as there have been several people who took a crack at it until Mangold rewrote it with the Butterworths)

I am starting to think that maybe Mads uses some kind of artifact related to Chronos to bring back the 3rd reich.

Look at his face. They might be making him young with cgi for that scene.
