INDIANA JONES 4 A-GO

Man, JimSmash has been kind of a bummer these past few posts..... and I wish this one was a good one, but alas. Well, maybe it is, depending on the JimSmasher reading this....

Lucas has announced that filming for INDIANA JONES 4 will begin next year (2007). Apparently, he and Spielberg finalized a script (someone check outside for flying pigs) and Lucas stated, "It’s going to be fantastic. It’s going to be the best one yet!" Hmmmm, well take that for what it's worth, considering the source. I'll guess we'll find out Summer 2008 when its currently scheduled to be released.

Personally, I was sighing a sigh of relief when it was in development hell. I think a 4th Indy will bury and tarnish the saga. RAIDERS ruled, I think we all agree. TEMPLE OF DOOM and LAST CRUSADE, while fun at times and with their moments, were by far weaker. (post arguments and opinions of this in the Comments section, heh).

Lucas & Spielberg, JUST LET IT BE, guys! Stop digging up relics and ruining them. Yes, the lame pun was intended. BAHD DATES!

Maybe this is an attempt to end on a high note. I felt "Rocky Balboa" was Stallone’s attempt to end the rocky series with a little drama and character.

This new Indiana adventure could be a good thing depending on there intended audience. “Temple of Doom” was my least favorite - too silly. Raiders had some seriousness about it. If we are lucky this one will too.
