Lucas: "I'm moving away from the company, I'm moving away from all my businesses, I'm finishing all my obligations and I'm going to retire to my garage with my saw and hammer and build hobby movies. I've always wanted to make movies that were more experimental in nature, and not have to worry about them showing in movie theatres."
Now..where did we put the keys to this place. Finn? Didn't you have them last?
Morty? How much money is left in the Jukebox? Should we let the patrons play the songs out...I think the last one is "When the music's over, turn out the lights" by the Doors...

I guess I better finish my drink, and find a place to play, "Oh show me the way to the next whisky bar."
Don't ask why.
Which bar is closest to The Raven?
Am I gonna have to pay off my tab now?
Lucas has already said all of these things. He's also said he's trying to do Indy 5, but as I've said for the last 2 years, I really doubt it. It just seems like he is too scared of the backlash.

Professor? You and I need to stumble out, like this:
Just don't depend on me for the cleaning up.
Or better yet- why can't the Raven go down in a blaze of glory like it did in Raiders? With a gunfight and all.

Unlike you, I put things back where they belong. The jimmy bar's hanging on its usual place in the broom closet.
All I've got are the keys to the wood shed, and I'm also clinging onto them. It's where the still is, after all.
What comes to the cold storage, I think we all agreed it's off-limits after that orangutan incident. But if you really insist on accessing it, the spare sticks of dynamite are right there in that crate next to the fireplace.

Regarding the cold storage. Do you think Shipwreck will be okay if you thaw him out?
I heard a rumour there was a titanic battle in there with the ape, and you had to seal off the door for safety reasons.

Listen gentlemen, lets get down to brass tacks here. How much for the ape?
“If you think about it, in an Indiana Jones movie there’s gotta be that quest, that object. It’s the Crystal Skull or the Lost Ark. The Bermuda Triangle doesn’t fit into that. I could feel with full confidence, without even talking to George or Steven, that we weren’t doing that.”
He has authorized the following message: A new Indy movie is no closer than it was six months ago. Rumors that Frank Marshall will be at the center of it, and asked to do something demented, are probably accurate.
Kathy Kennedy is now co-running Lucasfilm with George Lucas whether this is because Lucas needs the time to focus on Indy5 or retire as promised time will tell!
How about this Lucas is now moving ahead with developing $300m worth of land in Marin county into affordable housing for poorer people as he has had enough of being blocked into expanding Skywalker ranch! http://gradyranch.com/pdf/Grady_Ranch_4_10.pdf
Perhaps he is just mellowing but few billionaires would ever do this scale of project for nothing would they.
I have to wonder, exactly what is Kathleen Kennedy going to be chairwoman of? LucasFilms has become the new Graceland. Nothing new coming out of there.
As for Marshall, he only gets involved during pre-production. How difficult is it for Lucas to come up with a basis for a script? He doesn't even have to write the thing, he just has to do a rough draft. What does he do all day and night?
As surmised in the When George Lucas dies who will own Indiana Jones?, he might increasingly indulge in morbid reflections about his own mortality, and hence the quality of his remaining reputation as a filmmaker (with hopes to be best remembered for arthouse flicks shot in his final decade of life, it seems.)
Or he just hopes that someone is for once flattering to him, like Kathleen Kennedy; and especially unlike all these fans of His work...
In the end, all this I think will not change the prospects, both negative and positive, for an Indy V:
As we discussed in the No more Indiana Jones from George Lucas. thread,
Kennedy was most outspoken about Tintin taking over as flagship franchise from Indy (a negative). But on the other hand, she wouldn't be so influential as she has become without knowing what is sellable and how to get things done well, and fast (a positive).
Yes Harrison Ford wants to go back to the star wars universe, Mark hamill needs to loose six stone, but he says he will do, it if its gets him back in the public eye again. carrie fisher says she is game, as long as she can have a hot sex scene with Harrison on film.
