Secrecy Shrouds Indiana Jones Movie

Sava700 · Post by **Sava700** » Fri May 16, 2008 8:36 pm

This makes it even more exciting!!

Indiana Jones doesn't give up his secrets lightly, and neither does the man pulling his strings.

Director Steven Spielberg has tried to keep chapter four of the archaeologist's big-screen adventures, "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," under wraps as tight as an ancient mummy's.

The stealth approach has whipped up a frenzy of expectation - and doubts about the movie's quality - as he prepares to unveil it in front of the world's toughest audience, critics at the Cannes Film Festival. The film premieres here Sunday, just four days before it opens in theaters worldwide.

My god, the depths of idiocy are being plummed here. Ugly? I guess if the starlet in question isn't wearing a pair of cutoff jeans and has half her labia hanging out to see she's "ugly".

Where in the hell did you come up with that moronic drivel about her labia? Her wretched face and equally wretched acting are at the heart of my disdain for her.
I may be an idiot, but at least I know how to spell plumbed.

It isn't much of a rumor since you can spot him from a mile away.

I don't know Zilog or anything about him, but that pic of a native with socks and sandals on nearly made me spit coffee all over my moniter.

interesting news...

They needn't break a sweat keeping up with the (relative) kids: 39-year-old Cate Blanchett, the movie's villainess, and Shia LaBeouf, who plays the young lead Mutt Williams, and who may be tapped to continue the series after Ford's retirement — at least that's what Lucas hinted a few days ago here in Cannes.

So we should expect to see more movies with Shia LaBeouf doing the indy roles?

Can't wait! Only thing that woulda made it better is if Sean Connery came out of retirement to go one more round as Henry Jones (he was GREAT for that part).

If it has ANY feel of Indiana Jones in it (and all reports say its classic IJ) then it will be 10x better than 99% of the crap hollywood puts out these days!

Just to hear the the theme song is fun to me!

I don't doubt many will be divided regarding a certain part of the movie though.

I don't see the shroud or secrecy..it seems about the same as when the original ones came out. Actually the marketing seems a million times more than years ago. Seem to know more about this movie than back when the original ones were released.

I loved the old ones...but will probably wait until this hits DVD and watch it at home. Something tells me this one will be too much "canned" stuff that's typical of follow ups..especially this long after the originals. Not much will be original in it...some lines which reminisce the old ones.
