Edmilson 7,470 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 As a Williams fan, I would love this movie to happen, but I can't say I'm excited to watch it, just to listen to the OST. I mean, considering Ford's age, this movie will be set on the late 60s or early 70s. It's not exactly an interesting period. Will the russians be villains again, after the KOTCS fiasco? Maybe Indy on Vietnam? Or on Woodstock? The 20s and 30s are more interesting and exotic for a pulpy adventure in a way that the Cold War is not.

Edmilson 7,470 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Yeah, but The Mummy is set in 1926 . What I meant is that the early XX century, until the WWII, is more interesting for movies about adventurers and lost treasures than the Cold War. I dunno, maybe the WWII made the technology advance in such a way that took all the magic, exotism and mysticism necessary for these movies, but anyway.

Edmilson 7,470 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 All right, so Ford will be 77/78 during the filming of Indy 5. Indy was born in 1899 (I think), which means that, if he has the same age as Ford by the time of the movie, it will be set in 1976/77. Maybe 75, so in that way there can be a scene on which he passes by a movie theater exhibiting Jaws. But I dunno how can they make an Indiana Jones movie on the mid-70s. It's one of the most boring time periods for a movie. Unless they make a conspiracy thriller involving the government and Watergate, but still...

But, you know, I agree, it’s not Indiana Jones. So here’s what you do. Start as a cold war spy adventure with Indiana Jones and Daisy Ridley running through underground industrial complexes, disarming laser traps, using gadgets like pen-guns and shoe-phones, getting shot at by guys in suits, and they solve some puzzle and a secret compartment in a metallic wall opens to reveal the MacGuffin. They’re coming, we’re trapped, call Chief, “What do we do?” “Use the device!” They use the device and… We hear the Nazi theme from Last Crusade. “The 30s! Nazis!

Edmilson 7,470 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Kong: Skull Island is not a great movie by any means, but I guess it provides a decent template for an Indy 5. Set on the 70s, a group of explorers (including the Loki actor cosplaying as Indy) and some soldiers from the Vietnam War go to an island crowded with monsters and Kong. Sure, the monster part isn't obligatory (imagine almost 80-year-old Ford battling CGI monsters?), but it provides a decent mix of 1930s pulp adventure with the hard rock filled with acid climate of the 70s Vietnam.

Edmilson 7,470 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Interesting Quote Indiana Jones 5 Will "See Part of His History Resolved," According to Harrison Ford The Indy actor promises "we’ll see new developments in his life." The Indiana Jones films have so far explored a range of the globe-trotting archaeologist’s life. The Last Crusade portrayed Indy’s youth as well as his role as a son. The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull depicted Indy as a father and ended with him marrying his former flame Marion Ravenwood. So what does actor Harrison Ford -- who recently revealed that he begins filming Indiana Jones 5 in the next couple of months -- want to see explored about his iconic character in the next sequel? IGN got the chance to ask Ford that very question at the press junket for his newest film, The Call of the Wild, and while he was reluctant to spill too many beans the actor did promise that Indy 5 will “see part of [Indy’s] history resolved.” “Well, I’m not going to share the story with you because that doesn’t seem like a good idea,” Ford began. “But we’ll see new developments in his life, his relationship. We’ll see part of his history resolved.” Ford added, “It’s a very good script. I’m looking forward to it.” That script was most recently worked on by Jonathan Kasdan, one of the writers of Solo: A Star Wars Story and the son of original Raiders of the Lost Ark screenwriter Lawrence Kasdan. So which part of Indy’s history will the film resolve? Will fans finally learn what happened to Indy’s young Temple of Doom sidekick Short Round? Could an adult version of the character appear in this new adventure? Or will Indy once again receive help from his old pal Sallah? (Actor John Rhys-Davies certainly has ideas about how Sallah could return.) While Ford didn’t directly mention actress Karen Allen or Marion in his chat with us, his remark about Indy 5 seeing “new developments in his life, his relationship” would seem to indicate that Marion plays a role in the story. Whether or not Indy and Marion’s son, Mutt, played in Kingdom of the Crystal Skull by Shia LaBeouf, also returns remains to be seen, but it seems doubtful. David Koepp, who wrote the previous draft of Indy 5 before Kasdan, said in 2017 that Mutt wasn’t in his version of the story. LaBeouf’s possible exclusion from Indy 5 shouldn’t really come as a surprise, though, given his very public criticisms of Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Koepp also said at the time that Indiana Jones creator George Lucas is not involved in the fifth film. One key creative who will return is director Steven Spielberg, who’s currently in post-production on his remake of West Side Story. Indiana Jones 5 is slated to open July 9, 2021. https://sea.ign.com/harrison-ford/157838/news/indiana-jones-5-will-see-part-of-his-history-resolved-according-to-harrison-ford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
