Looks like there's no God.

Dude, I made that comment six months before Indy 5 with Ford was announced.FordFan said:KOTCS was set in 1957. They are shooting Indy 5 11 years after that film came out. Harrison Ford is in the film. What would you propose they do?
Z dweller said:Dude, I made that comment six months before Indy 5 with Ford was announced.
What my remark implied is blindingly obvious: I was hoping for a recast.
Unfortunately, with Ford on board the 60s are the only option.
My only hope for Indy 5 at this stage is that we get at least some flashbacks with a younger actor, who can then take over the role in future prequels.
I do realize this isn't likely to go down well with someone with your moniker, but frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.
Raiders112390 said:No younger actor. Spielberg said after Indy V, they're rebooting the series with a female as Indy.
Drones33 said:No. He didn?t say that at all.
?And the famed director did admit that the series wouldn?t have to continue with a male lead, revealing that he has considered a female actor to take over. ?We?d have to change the name from Jones to Joan. And there would be nothing wrong with that,? he added.?

Oh, come on.Raiders112390 said:No younger actor. Spielberg said after Indy V, they're rebooting the series with a female as Indy.
Z dweller said:Oh, come on.
He was clearly joking, and his chances of getting involved post-Indy 5 are close to zilch, anyway.
Doctor Jones'89 said:I think (hope) that we should expect a different kind of adventure, i.e. a "Wits Path" adventure; something like Sean Connery's role in the Name of the Rose, with some cool action interspersed in-between gun: ). So, I'd say late '60s, and maybe they could refer to the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls - which happened, however, in the late '40s - and set the initial part of the film in the Qumran caves, with Indy looking for more scrolls, leading somehow to the MacGuffin.
Or else, they can rejuvenate Harrison Ford through CGI and make it an action-packed movie...
I guess that they're still defining the script, but they must have at least a few clear ideas about the plot and how it's going to be like, so let's wait and see!

Makes no sense.
Randy_Flagg said:I know he's kidding about the name (since they wouldn't need to change the last name, regardless of whether the character is male or female), but there actually was a elderly woman at the hospital where my mother used to work, and her name was Indiana Jones. Her family was from the state of Indiana, and Jones is a very common last name. Obviously, based on her age, she was named long before the movies existed.
During the 1960s, the world outside of North America, Europe, Japan, and Hong Kong would still be similar as it had been before WWII. Many countries didn't have the new culture that the Western world was experiencing. Many of the developed countries of the present didn't have skyscrapers at that time. Going to these countries during the 1960s still felt like going back in time. I agree that it would be wild to have Indy with hard rock, and I actually like that idea. And then going to the Third World countries would still have that old world atmosphere.Raiders112390 said:I am still wrapping my head around the fact that Indy will be out adventuring during the time when Jim Morrison and Syd Barrett were making awesome out of this world tunes. It's weird, but not in a bad way. But I mean as long as it isn't featured in the film, it's not bad. But it's just wild to think Indy will be out there adventuring and Sgt. Pepper and Psychedelia and hard rock will be ruling the airwaves, women will be burning their bras and such. It's just fascinating to juxtapose Indiana Jones with this period of history; he has become the relic.

Lambonius said:I think you're collapsing a bit too much time here. Bra-burning and psychedelic rock music were really late 1960s/early 1970s. The early 1960s were culturally closer to the more conservative attitudes of the 1950s than the hard rock era of the 1970s.
