It's not that terrible... if they try to reach the same quality, it can't hurt very much.nitzsche said:I'm all for any kind of spin-off series starring Shia. We need another fun franchise in the vein of Indiana Jones.
QBComics said:Cool picture of Shia on the front but I am worring about Indy Jr. I just hope these magazines don't know what they are talking about.
On his inspiration...It was <i>terrifying</i> to join this franchise. Everything you imagine it is, is exactly what it is. You don't want to be the addition who ruined everything. And you know there's going to be so much critique, that it can be quite daunting. But Harrison always used to say before every take, 'Alright, let's shoot this s**t.' It was his way of alleviating the pressure. Another hats-off thing about Harrison is that he's the troop leader - he's General Patton; the guy leading the surge. When you're around him, you don't feel the pressure.
On the influence he made to the film...I watched Blackboard Jungle a lot, and watched The Wild One all the time. I would steal mannerisms and words. Bascially, that's what my research was: just theft! I mean, the closest picture you can get of the time is in film, and so Steven would bring these DVDs in for homework.
I'd bring a switchblade in and say, 'Hey Steven, what do you think of this?' I had worked on it for a month and a half, flipping it and being able to mess around with it in a cool way. I'd film myself and bring the DVD to show Steven and he'd say, "Yeah that's awesome.' So then we'd implement it. It's amazing how much freedom he allows.

They are only showing bits & pieces of a few "select" scenes and saving the surprises for later.NamedAfterDaDog said:It's annoying, and I don't know why, which is making it even more annoying.
