They would have to make the movie RIGHT NOW. Harrison Ford isn't getting any younger.

Exactly! And it sticks out like a sore thumb. '35... '36... '38... '57, and all of a sudden the main character is old and grey. Which in itself is fine... but... it would be nice to have another, especially a sequel to KotCS, and smooth the transition, however slightly.ben7 said:If that's the last Indy film that comes out, I'm going to be very disappointed because it just feels incomplete and empty.

Why so certain?Snap said:It's not a matter "if" its going to happen. Indy V IS going to happen. Going to come out within the next 4 years by my guestimation.
I think Spielberg did have a fun time crafting KINGDOM (and would probably be up for another just because he enjoys the experience), but I'm a bit uncertain as to how he feels about the finished film. It definitely seems like KINGDOM was another TEMPLE moment for him - ala an Indy film where he tended to let George have what he wanted, and was more excited about the relationships that were developed than about the finished film.James said:Spielberg seems to have really enjoyed himself while making the film, and claims to have developed a strong friendship with Ford this time around. People have tried to spin his "reluctant" comments into a negative story, but I don't think there's anything to the argument.
When I heard the story, KINGDOM certainly struck me as something of a grand send-off film. The movie didn't end up playing that way, though (CITY OF THE GODS sure did, though).James said:I'm more surprised that they're even open to the idea of making another film. Didn't you honestly expect this one to be presented as a swansong? They certainly wouldn't have raised any eyebrows with such an announcement.
I could see an older Jones adventure working, but I would want it to be a more sedate affair. Less popcorn thrills, more story, and more atmosphere. I don't know how well that would go over.James said:If everyone's still around in 8 or 10 years and they decide to make another film...why not? I could easily see the character working as an older, bearded adventurer. Let's face it, the idea of Ford returning at 65 would've seemed pretty unlikely way back in 1989, too.
