I just want them to bring the Ark back as a central object!

It was on a Irish radio show. Apparently, Hitler was fascinated with the artefact for most of his life. General Patton was said to have an interest aswell.
The Spear, which which used to stab Christ during The Crucifixion, was described much like the Ark, granting invincibility to any army that possessed it.
Here's more.

Wonder how the lead villan would die as a result of the spear if they did use it as an idea.

Maybe they could be pierced with it, and they begin to bleed through the hole, then their nostrils, it starts as blood, then becomes gushing water!
I had a severe nose bleed earlier this year (both nostrils, and down my throat!) and I actually thought at a later stage, it;d be cool to see an Indy villan bleeding badly through their nostrils and eyes. Because my mind works that way!

I may be wrong, but I heard that Hitler had the spear in his possession for a while. When he longer had it, that was when he commited suicide. Again, just a something I had read about once. I do know it is true that Hitler was interested in supernatural artifacts. Did not know Patton was interested in the spear though.

There is multiple fan films entitled "Indiana Jones and the Spear of Destiny".
I love they idea, but i like the Staff of Moses better, maybe a solomon's temple sort of thing.
Solomon was the worlds wisest man. God granted him the power of wisdom to lead his people. Maybe a artifact inside this lost temple could have the power to grant wisdom to all who posses it.
What army doesn't want wisdom?
Indiana Jones
and the Search for Wisdom's Temple.

The Garden of Eden probably has a better chance than the Spear of Longinus. The former is an idea that Spielberg has previously mentioned, and the only one that both Lucas and Spielberg avoided discussing throughout the KOTCS promotion. (Yet they rarely have a problem discussing rejected story ideas.)
I also think the Spear would be deemed too similar to the Holy Grail.

If they go with the garden of eden, there is a chance you will see over sized beasts. A giant snake perhaps. In the garden of eden, nothing could die, so reptiles would just keep getting bigger and bigger.
The giant snake idea seems like something GL and SS have been playing with for awhile. First in that magazine cover in the INDY III thread, then in Frank Darabont's Indy 4 script.

I don't believe they had anything to do with that old magazine cover, but otherwise, interesting point.
I wouldn't mind seeing that type of approach in the film...possibly veering close to Lovecraft territory. It could be a logical next step in exploring the 1950's "B" genre.
