The way I read It was Indy 5 Is His next film he Is directing...Udvarnoky said:The question remains: will he direct something before both of them? He's keeping his schedule suspiciously open for that possibility.

This seems quise plausible to me. These will be two big movie events in need of tremendous pre-production work.seasider said:I'd be surprised if Spielberg takes on another project between now and Indy 5. He likes to take long breaks after he has been working on multiple movies. He'll probably use 2018 to recharge his batteries and do pre-production work on Indy 5 and West Side Story.
FordFan said:No. That suspicious opening, in my eyes, would be to make sure "Indy 5" has as strong a script as possible. No reason to make this, other than to apologize for "Indy 4".
You don't think surviving that move required physicality?Udvarnoky said:Indy doesn't have time to fight the swordsman, so he just shoots him. Indy is outnumbered at the end of Temple, so he cuts the bridge.
Nosirrah said:what would be the '70s genre that they'd take their cue from for IJ5? The mind reels.
Wasn't it, though? I mean, the truck chase sequence in Raiders is one of the most iconic scenes in the series, especially Indy falling under the truck, and then being dragged behind it. And yet, it's something that would look absolutely ridiculous if they tried to convince us an 80 year old man was doing.Udvarnoky said:Sure, you can't be having an Indy who is in his 70s jumping from a horse to a moving tank, but that kind of thing was never really the essence of the older movies.
No, there isn't. And Disney know that only too well.Randy_Flagg said:If they make an Indy movie that's devoid of anything resembling these classic Indy scenes, is there really a point to making it at all?
