Cities could be alright if used right, but I do not want to see Bus Chases (like in the Sword of Arthur script), my point is that i want to see something original really and in cities that is quite unlikely.
Come on everyone had really got to admit that the Speedboat scenes were quite dull and unbelievable in LC....
I would really like to see a river boat chase in S-East Asia through all the Markets like in the Monkey King script, franticly dodging stuff. I like to see things that i have no experience of in Indy, and I certainly have experience of Docklands where the Chase was filmed, and pigeons.
I'd love to see something in someplace cold (the mountains perhaps...). Remember that plot for Indy II (the one that wasn't used) that was China-centric - if we knew what was in it, we'd probably know something that'll show up (apart from the Great Wall motorcycle chase). More jungle would be good. The desert is great for Indy's adventures, but of all the "main stream" Indy stories (games and the trilogy), only ToD doesn't have any sand. That was one of the best things with the novels (and to a lesser degree, YIJC), seeing Indy in Greece, Brazil, Easter Island, the Arctic, Civil War battlefields (just about the only good thing about the White Witch was a more modern artifact, even if it was only gold coins), etc. (Come on, every one of McCoy's books had a desert setting at some point.)
Cities, jungles, mountains, snow... Sounds good to me.

how do you know? Has someone said that? I have no idea about what is already known about indy 4, please tell me
I think jones may be speaking from a logical point of view. Since the story will take place in the 50's, WW2 was over for at least five years. The Third Reich was finished, and Nazism was finished too.

i know that, but is it for sure that the movie will take place in the 50's ?
I like the cold weather idea... as for what he should be after it should be religous Buddist, Muslum, Norse, or something. Otherwise he could be involved with something of great historical sugnificance now but was new in the '50 (yeah Space-race has been mentioned and that's all I can think of) Indiana Jones and the Search for Sputnik. Or perhaps he looses his hat... that would suck.

I think that anything is preferable to MORE desert, imagine a chase scene across Arctic conditions!, that would envigorate the whole sequence even if it was basicly a rehash of Raiders. But if there is anything iam aganist it is the artifacts that have some sort of modernity to them, something created with the lost knowledge of the ancients etc Indiana Jones artifacts should not need explaination they should be supernatural, simply inexplicable rather than something that could be recreated again in a few decades.
Said it first!!!!
