    General Indy 5 Thread - rumors and possibilities

    Is it just me or is there a brown hint to Harrisons hair? And the beard stubble, looks like hes ready for indy5 to me. Perhaps a prequel to KOTCS is in the pipeline. OK OK OK I know that is a long shot but hey... a man has to have hope lol. Would an Indy movie work if it was set during his...

    General Indy 5 Thread - rumors and possibilities

    ...take the hint! I know its been said here before about " hearing something by a certain time or just accept it wont happen" and I think that time has come with the comiccon. If we dont get some kind of information by then we can assume that it wont happen, we get no news, take the hint; aint...

    General Indy 5 Thread - rumors and possibilities

    Same old sh17...new day. I know we keep getting these unconfirmed quotes and news bulletins dont we. I just saw it and thought I'd post it for that one person (who lives on the moon) who may not have read anything before lol. All these quotes remind me of me and my wife. Q) when are you going...

    March 5th: Indiana Jones 5 on the way: Harrison Ford Hollywood superstar Harrison Ford is getting his whip out again, as he is set to hit the big screen as Indiana Jones. The 67-year-old has revealed that Indiana Jones 5 could be on the cards as he has agreed on an idea with the hit...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    ...and. As I've said before on the subject; where in the film are we told they actually had sexual intercourse? We are having differences of opinion on a "possible" past between two people. I still think that she had a massive crush on him and she was infatuated and she was hurt when he just...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    I think the Indy/ Marion thing all boils down to movie dialogue and fans knowledge of the history of Indiana Jones getting mixed up. I certainly dont think Speilberg would intentionally plant a "Indy had sex with a minor" seed, the man has made just about THE best kids/ family films EVER made...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    All valid points, as a child I looked up to Indy (I had no father figure in my life) and I can still remember thinking how cool it would be if he WAS my Dad, as I grew older, I started to think I'd like to be him when I grow up and now as a father and a "grown up" I watch Indy through a childs...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    Indeed! I think it comes down to parental guidance and how you teach your children the right morals and answer the Indy- related- questions. I agree (again sheesh) that Indy's actions are not justified by him redeeming himself at the end of each movie simply because; Imagine your child beating...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    Thats exactly my point. Does anyone know of any child getting into deep sh17 from imitating Dr.Jones or following his moral fibre? I hear (read) of nothing but positive views on that one... which answers the question of whether or not he is a good role model for young kids. We don't see...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    Thats exactly my point, my son and me are always out and about digging and searching and digging some more... he loves it and it gives me a chance to escape "being and adult" and revert back to getting my hands dirty and just having a blast. I dont think you have anything to worry about as far...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    So are you basically saying that the ideals and morals of Indy are OK for kids to look up to but the actual themes of the movies themselves are a bit too much, not exactly suitable for young viewers? I agree about the kids having questions about certain elements of the films but isnt that just...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    I suppose it could be a question of: If your child grew up to be just like Indy, would you be proud or ashamed? :confused:

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    I agree with what Rocket Surgeon is saying to a large extent. If we protect our kids from the "ify" scenes and words then it's not so bad and try not to avoid their questions of certain things, otherwise they will try to draw their own conclusions (adding 2+2 and coming up with 5). Any half...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    First of all I would like to say; That was one of the most awesome replies and arguments to a specific subject I've ever read... (pat on back). I can fully appreciate all the points you made here and from an adult thinking as a child, it makes sense. However, not once has my son (or daughters)...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    Yeah I see what you mean about the "fork point" situation but that again (IMO) just shows his vulnerability and survival instinct, we all know that he would not have plunged that fork into her ribs but he had little other option at that time... And your right about the movies being more fun than...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    I wasn't posting that as pure evidence but I'm pretty sure if he was NOT a possible good role model for kids, they wouldnt have 'I can read' books for kids... simply because any parent that would buy it for their child knows they have already seen the movie and approve or the child will ask to...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    Lets open a "Did Indy rape Marion" thread, lol. All these points are interesting but the one thing I feel is that there is NO mention of sexual intercourse as such. I always assumed that she was infatuated with him and he left and that was what hurt her... just a thought. :confused:

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    Good point. We are all taught (I assume) that if you are threatened and you fear for your life to protect yourself. OK Indy could have whipped the sword out of his hand but whats to say that that kind of unpredictable tactic may have sent that sword flying into someone in the crowd... we do what...

    Is Indy a "Family hero" and a good role model for kids?

    I agree with that, our cynical adult minds sometimes see the worst in most things; unfortunately thats down to that fact that we watch the news, read the papers (in between working and watching Indy of course) and see what "life" is actually like in these times. The innocence of a child watching...
