You have no reason to trust me. I have no credibility. Heck, you can curse me out on this thread and I wouldn't mind. I'm bound to get feedback that isn't all apple and pie. So, here's the sitch:
My gracious source, one who is the most trustworthy, sent me an email. Mind you this man tailor's to a few websites. He hadn't contacted me in over a year and I forgot about him. Until recently. He started sending me information again. Correct information, good information, and he now has my absolute trust.
Remember: I'm not looking to **** anyone off at the studio. Please remove the thread if the site has felt it not needed.
According to him, he has taken a look at the script. This is what he had to say about it.
Regarding Indiana and Mutt:
Marion Ravenwood concieved the child, supposedly, immediately after the first film. She withheld the information that this was Indiana's child as she had the belief about Indy never settling down from his wild way's. The child was born, and thus raised, without a father.
Here's the catch. Mutt know's that Indy is his father. He doesn't know anything further than that. His rap is that if his father didn't want him, he certainly doesn't need him. (How good could the man be, anyway?).
Regarding Abner Ravenwood:
My source was very stern about this next spoiler. Abner is indeed back and has his first appearance on pg. 34. Whether Hurt is the one to play him, I don't know. Abner dissapear's on Pg 64. (Presumably captured.)
Regarding the villain:
She is indeed played by the wonderful Cate Blanchett. Her role is one of great importance as she is a mix-up of Russian/German. Her objective is world domination and to restore the great empire of Russia. (He wouldn't let more information ago on the matter.)
Regarding Mutt, his name, and his attitude:
Mutt was named after the dog. (Yes, lame, I know.) His attitude in the script is ignorance. He's a greaser, rides a 56' motor, and doesn't have a care in the world.
Regarding Henry Jones:
He's dead. He was apparently killed off in his "One, last glorious adventure".
Regarding Macro:
Macro, "Mac", is somewhat a replacement for Henry Jones. He's a hired proffesional there to help Indy.
That's what he told me. He wouldn't let more go than the script is the best one out of them all. (Take this with a grain of salt, w/e). I believe my source and hopefully you do to.
