Did Young Indy ever adapt any Williams material?

 

AFAIK only in the bookend that Ford appeared in.

[Schilkeman 951]

This is good news. I’m a big fan of Young Indy even though it’s a weird show. It has a real BBC in the 90’s production feel to it, Indiana Jones presents History Theater, but if you’re looking for a tv version of the movies, you’ll be disappointed. Personally, I like how different it is.

OK, apparently they were filmed so that pairs of episodes could be broadcast together as a single longer episode so it was planned that way rather than a random re-editing. Still, I don't think they were done in a way that would hang together as a single movie. They did make a few TV movies after the series ended which one would expect that they hang together better.

Every single episode, even the TV-movies, have two-parts, though it's usually too late to pause it when you notice it, they flow quite well, you can tell with the 9/10-years old episodes when they split if you pay attencion to the actor who plays Indy, he will always be with a different haircut between parts.

So they got rid of Old Indy. Does that mean they got rid of Less Old Indy? (Harrison Ford?)

Mystery of the Blues continues with Harrison in it.

 

I'm currently in "Chapter 20" of my rewatch, the aforementioned Mystery of the Blues. Been rewatching since January weekly to match Dial of Destiny's realease. I really like this show.

I was honestly confused for a while, then I checked that I did post 170 times... wow. Anyways here is an avatar image:

I just like it when the people I'm talking to have SOMETHING for an avatar instead of a giant letter with a randomly colored background

Not literally,

Are you suggesting @Gabriel Bezerra's avatar be Tom Jones?

Idk why, but whenever I imagine @mstrox talking, I don't imagine his pfp, but for some reason I imagine him as the bus driver from the Simpsons. And its strange because his pfp is 2 other Simpsons characters

You guys know about this Barbara Streisand / Carrie Fisher / Irvin Kershner video?

 

 

There's a version with subtitles on twitter if you're having a hard time hearing it

Dear Zod that's NUTS. OTOH he should have been beaten some more for Hanover Street.

When I was 9, I got the first 4 Raiders figures and the Well of Souls playset for Christmas.  Never in a million years did I think I’d ever get Temple or Doom Indy in that style.  I was a kid this morning when I found them.  For the record, I didn’t buy them all like the pic suggests. Just one to open and one to keep on the card.

Better music than the teaser trailer.

WAIT A MINUTE ... you weren't expecting to find these, and yet you went shopping in the hat and jacket? Hmm ...  

[Jurassic Shark 12,008]

He obviously found it, went home and put on the right clothes, then went back to take the picture.

Disney+ in the UK doesn't seem to be streaming Young Indy, although the four movies have appeared. Has the show appeared for anyone anywhere else?

[Brónach 1,301]

i imagine that's going in the disney can

It’s on there in the US - the movie-length versions.

Not here in Brazil either... a major disappointment, first thing I did when I woke up was check the site.

Do the episodes have audio or subtitles in other languages available? This would already tell if they intend to put it in other countries. 

This show was never released here in physical media, and was only broadcasted in the 90s

Annoying for you too! Maybe Disney are just slow to roll them out beyond the US but I'll be quite disappointed not to be able to watch them.

Young Indiana Jones is rated TV-MA?!?

Ah yes. good shout, but as you say, one would hope that the quality on D+ would be better as from my brief look they seem quite pixellated. Who knows how long they'll be there now Disney are (half heartedly!) making them more widely and legally available.

[Manakin Skywalker 4,889]

Just to clarify, the versions on Disney Plus are just straight-up DVD rips, so expect the same exact quality as the official sets.

God that’s pretty lame but as we’ve all discovered, Disney don’t give as much of a shit about their assets (especially the ones they can’t strip mine) as we might hope. You’d think they would be getting a decent HD release by now. Meh.
