I am not going to quote the whole list, because I don't have much suggestions other then:

1. Have it set a few years before Crystal Skull, but after WO II
2. Have Nazis build a base somewhere remote, where they hide out in order to prepare for a second attempt at conquering the world
3. The creepy crawleys could be anything, just no CGI.
4. Darker and less goofier then Crystal Skull.
5. Maybe a MacGuffin to ressurect an army of undead soldiers.
6. No referencing 50's movies, instead focus on something that builds on the Indy universe.
7. More practical effects, less bull****.

Title: The Adventures of Mutt Jones
MacGuffin: The Winebago Headdress
Year: 1958
Returning Characters: Mutt Williams
New Characters: Mutt's Greaser Friends
Indy girl: non existent
Sidekick: Mutt's Greaser Friends
Champagne villain: non existent
Menacing villain: non existent
Critters: non existent
Locations: (in order): Forest on outskirts of New Haven
Plot: Mutt Williams crashes his hotted up car into the forest after drag racing along a big road. In the forest they find a hidden american-indian chamber filled with traps protecting the ancient headdress of the Winebago Tribe. Mutt shows he is alot like his father when he beats the traps and escapes with the headdress.
Sets and setpieces: Long road lined with forest, the forest, ancient american-indian rock chamber.
Vehicles: hotted up roadster
Grisly death: non existent
Finale: headdress recovered and taken to museum.
Last shot: close-up of headdress being held up by mutt, cross-fades into close-up of it being placed in glass case in museum. The shot then zooms out to show full museum room as credits roll

This is my idea for a tv series (possibly cartoon) about Mutt Jones's adventures. It would start with this one. Mutt goes back to school after KOTCS and this his last night of high school before he goes to study archaeology at the University of Chicago like his father did. His adventures would go across his time at Univrsity: getting into trouble, going on digs etc.

- Another mention of the Ark of the Covenant, or the other MacGuffins
- Sallah, damnit!
- No Mutt
- More Marion feistiness
- Less George Lucas dialogue - "I never should have doubted you, old friend" :eek:

Indiana Jones and the Chains Of Blood
Starring Harrison Ford.


Indy's evil brother turns up to wreak havoc.

Are we talking Kevin Costner here?

Perhaps not Costner. Maybe Leslie Neilsen. Harrison reminded me of Lieutenant Drebin at times in KOTCS.:sick: :dead:


I'm quite proud of that title, think I'll copyright it ( the Chains Of Blood bit.)
Mitts off, Lucas.

Yes. Yes, he did. Kaminski's camera occasionally made his hair look ultra-white.

I was referring more to the stuttering, stumbling fool that Indy had deteriorated into in the last half of the movie. " I wrote!" delivered like Neilsen. Flailing arms in the quicksand: Neilsen like.
