Well, it was the IMDB Pro only access that made me curious. I was wondering if this meant that the info there was not put in by someone from the public, but has been put there by someone in the industry, which of course puts a more positive light on something really happening. Even though I have made criticisms of CS, I'm certainly glad they made it and now we are in that period where we will be shredding ourselves with suspense as to whether they are or are not going to make Indy 5.
General Indy 5 Thread - rumors and possibilities
- Thread starter tnswman

Hi folks. I just joined IMDbPro for a two week free trial. Anyone with a valid credit card can do this. Information is as follows:
Indiana Jones 5 (2012, Steven Spielberg)
Status: Pitch
Project Notes: No script or green light yet
Contact: Lucasfilm
Production Company: Lucasfilm
Distributor: Paramount Pictures
Genre: Action/Adventure/Comedy
Filmmakers: Steven Spielberg - Director, Philip Kaufman - Writer (characters), George Lucas - Writer (characters)/Producer, Kathleen Kennedy - Producer, Frank Marshall - Producer, Janusz Kaminski - Cinematographer, John Williams - Composer, Michael Kahn - Editor
Cast: Harrison Ford...Indiana Jones
Status Updated 24 June 2009
Read into it what you will. I think it says no more than what we already know. They will hold their cards tight to their chest until they tell everyone all at once.

Here's a cozy thought...
WHAT IF THEY'VE ALREADY MADE IT??!!
Now I know that's pure fantasy BUT imagine sitting at home watching tv and suddenly you hear the bullwhip crack the fedora flash by and Indy5 will be 'Coming soon to cinemas'
Aaaaw now I've depressed myself. But hey... what a thought!
I'm growing tired of all this hearsay and speculation... lets have a definite either way!

Hmmmm, there's one thing on that list that is sorta new to me. The other writer (character) is that who will write the scrip this tiem around? Is this old news?

I won't get excited until Spielberg and Lucas make an official announcement. I can't bear the thought of getting my hopes up only to find out that it's been scraped. The fact that they're still talking about it is a good sign but I'd like a concrete date or press release to make it official.

I find the 2012 date on that info interesting. That's something I haven't heard. Perhaps the guys have set themselves a due date that it would be the latest time to release the film (kind of like when HF gave them a 2 year period for Indy IV)? Dunno, just speculating. Has anyone else seen that 2012 date before?

Not a firm believer in that release date, especially now that Spielberg has signed on to do the "Harvey" remake.

I've seen it lots of times before, though not as an Indiana Jones movie release date. If anything, it sounds more like a date that could be mentioned in an Indy movie.

^ Yeah, actually. I was thinking that too. But surely George wouldn't go all aliens and Mayan on us AGAIN!
Or he could go book of Revelations, but I don't know what would be a MacGuffin and how you would do that if the film was set say, in the early '60s?
Dr. Gonzo: Agreed. Which is why I'm suggesting that it's more of a "Best Before" or "Due by" date like the 2 year period HF gave them for KOTCS. Again though, have you heard that date associated with Indy in any rumour, coz I certainly haven't (admittedly though, I don't spend a lot of time on the net, so I'm probably wrong).

I guess so. I'm almost certain that they're going to do it but you never know.

Spielberg shoots his films fast, that is his reputation, and considering a script hasn't been written yet, as far as we know, 2012 or earlier may still be the right projected date.

It really is going to depend on whether Lucas comes up with a reasonable outline, or something absurd again. The fact is, if he hadn't insisted on the aliens since 1995, we would have had several more Indiana Jones movies by now. If he has an idea they all like, I think it will go forward rather quickly.

Remember that first video on the official website, the gang back together, let's have some fun?
And that first pic of Ford in that chair, wearing hat and satchel?
I don't think that feeling will be quite reached again should Indy 5 officially take off, but it sure will come close.
