Brundlefly 2,385 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 The Indy universe is a universe for angry gods and not for friendly aliens. One should ignore the fourth film and create the new film as a sequel of the trilogy, because you cannot continue the story in a universe that has already been spoiled by aliens, UFOs and nuked fridges.

Jay 37,249 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 That's the only thing I'm looking forward to about the project. If this film weren't being made, Williams would score some other film or just write more concert music instead, so its a win/win as far as Williams goes anyway.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 A concert piece is 20 minutes or so at the most. Indy 5 will have about 100 minutes probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,451 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 2 hours ago, Quintus said: I've thought that. Make it like The Shootist, it probably work if done well. But that's also fundamentally changing what Indiana Jones is: an action hero. It'd be an entirely different beast to what came before in the trilogy, but not in a way which would feel new, fresh and necessary. It'd be retiring and probably poignant, which isn't how I would personally like to remember the character. Indiana Jones was never a character drama; it was a rollicking adventure! He rode off into the sunset to fight another day! That's what makes the character immortal. It'd be depressing to see him lean back into his rocking chair and reminisce about the good old days, about that one last job he did. Ugh, no thanks. I get your point, and a film with an 85- or 90-year-old Ford would obviously need to take the age into consideration. But personally, I agree with Indy 'superfan' Joe Esrey over on FSM when he states that he would like to see a more 'serious', archeological approach to the hero. For this approach, there is basically no upper age limit. Sure, it would not be the gung ho adventure/cliffhanger genre of the previous movies, but I am personally so interested in the universe, I'd love to see a different exploration/angle. Like, say, they did with STARGATE: ATLANTIS or even the new BATTLESTAR GALACTICA. Heck, even ROGUE ONE. Also, do not forget we already have a 90-something year old Indiana Jones!

Quintus 5,399 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Nobody bar Thor and some others would want to watch that movie. They already tried that sort of old coot adventure thing with Space Cowboys, it doesn't work. Those movies don't make tills ring at the box office.

Popular Post Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted April 25, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2017 I have a feeling that Williams' Indy V will be an improvement over the last, a major improvement even (especially if this is the sentimental send-off that I'm expecting/hoping for). crumbs, Cerebral Cortex, Pieter Boelen and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pieter Boelen 740 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 For me, the tagline of Temple of Doom most certainly holds true: "If adventure has a name, it must be Indiana Jones." Seriously, if I think of Indiana Jones, I think of adventure. And when I think of adventure, I think of Indiana Jones. And I really like adventure! So I say, bring this on. But please.... no aliens this time. 16 hours ago, Selina Kyle said: I hope they bring back everyone from the last one, except for John Hurt, of course. Mac went to the space between spaces. Maybe's he's like some sort of lord of time now. Can't wait to see Mutt and Karen Allen again! That's gonna be great! It's gonna be great! Something tells me you like a certain TV series that is back on the air now. If only John Hurt could have returned as lord of time....! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the second best movie tagline of all time. The best is obviously Jaws 2. Pieter Boelen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
