Wojo 2,453 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 We didn't need more Star Wars movies either. But Disney bought the rights and needs to always be making and releasing movies. So...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien F 1,742 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 To be honest, if the studios are going to reboot the series (and I wish they didn't), but if they did, Pratt has the charisma and screen presence to pull it off. Weren't there rumors of Bradley Cooper being associated with the role at one point, which I didn't like one bit.The best thing about a possible reboot is the possibility of an Indy score with someone like Giacchino or Desplat using the original themes, assuming Williams doesn't return. If they hire Zimmer, I think I might just quit new cinema entirely. He can write decent music at times, but he is such a bad fit for the franchise.

Quintus 5,399 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Now I understand how those old original 007 fans felt when they saw someone replace Connery and why they'll always say he was the best Bond.Seeing this is going to be a little sad and a lot weird for me, truly like an end of an era. Ford as Indiana Jones was my childhood hero, but it's time for some other kid to idolise another actor in the iconic role, and that's okay.Good casting.

Quintus 5,399 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Getting the tone right is going to be so hard for Pratt and the director, like, almost impossible. But good luck to them.If Star Wars is good then they should keep ahold of Lawrence Kasdan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Hilary Bray 235 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Part of me entertained the notion of Nick Offerman as Indy. For a moment.It'll be interesting. Fortune or glory kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 And I realise it's a reboot, but they would be dumb fools to do away with the theme, even if they had to power anthem it up a bit or whatever else they feel they must do in order to make it sound modern and 'cool'. Because that music, that melody is very much 50% of the required tone already delivered and ready for use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I hope Zimmer will keep it yes!It's like the Bond theme. It belongs with the character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Indiana Jones is different though. The music is more closely tied with the character. John Williams' Superman theme was written after decades of history (and themes) of Superman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Yes!Hence my mention of the Bond theme. Even the Star Trek reboot still used the Courage fanfare. Its part of the DNA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 If the movie features the hat, the whip, and the theme then it's an Indiana Jones movie. If it's missing any of those, then it's not. Plain and simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 It needs to be set in the future where Indy goes into space, or the space between spaces, with a brilliantly boring score by Hans Zimmer.

Matt C 454 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Do we really need more Indiana Jones after 4 movies?Disney can't just make endless Star Wars movies, they're going to milk Lucasfilm from top to bottom. There's a reason they straightened out ownership and profit-sharing with Paramount last year regarding future Indiana Jones movies.The fact that Disney is eyeing Chris Pratt for Indiana Jones doesn't bother me, it's not going to invalidate the beloved older movies or anything. It's possible Spielberg looked at a rough cut of Jurassic World and suggested Pratt as a replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disney bought Lucasfilm, which includes iconic franchises and guaranteed moneymakers. Of course they're going to reboot Indiana Jones with some hip new actor. I've been expecting this.
