It's not impossible to survive a nuclear explosion. A reinfored concrete house inside the blast zone can survive a nuclear blast. Provided you're at a sufficient distance from ground zero, an underground shelter would shield you quite well from the initial burst of intense radiation, and the reinforced building could withstand the following blast wave(s). A minute or so afterwards, you could leave the site quickly in a car, to escape the fallout before it reaches your location. In theory you could do this and, with a bit of luck, not suffer any lasting ill effects at all, which isn't to say that I'd ever consider trying it out for myself of course. :)

I wouldn't be surprised if the directors have been inspired by films like these (note the reinforced concrete building in this one):

I quite like the atmosphere in this movie, and I hope we get to see something like it in Indy 4:

I hate people that always nay say this movie. Why be a Indy fan? Where these same people around when Temple and LC came out? Saying how they hat short round or how Indy shouldn't have a dad?

I don't think there would be as much naysaying if people weren't faced with the possibility that the world's greatest treasure hunter was now chasing after ALIENS.

The line about the years/milage doesn't bother me, since he's most likely saying it to Marion Ravenwood. Plus, we don't know the context in which he's saying it. So for me this line is probably going to work great.

If the line was to anyone else but Marion, it would be horrible.

I KNEW someone would post these LOL!! And to be honest, It does give credibility to surviving the blast.. the radiation. i don't know LOL! The Rocket sled may be the way to go.

Why does ANYONE have ANY problem with Dead aliens when we have seen a living 800 year old Knight, and the power of God revealing himself to strike the enemy of the USA? Not to mention Kali....come on....Are alien's ANY different? Are you telling me that there are not races that lookalien in appearance or that worshiped alien looking beings? Look at some of the inbred kings of Ancient Egypt. .their heads were close to these skulls.

Thanks, again, for the spoiler pics, tnswman (what does that stand for, by the way...the naked star wars man?...just curious).

Interesting locations...the trilogy pics are all major set pieces...it scares me that "Doom Town" and "Arnie's diner" are on the board with these scenes. How big a scene can Arnie's diner really be? Hopefully not that big...

I don't mind if Indiana Jones sips milkshakes at the local diner once in a while after class...I just don't want to see it during the +/- 2 hrs of film time for KOTCS. Unless it's some ancient lost South American diner in the jungle.

Speaking of South America, the Cemetary and Temple look great...now THAT'S Indy that I want to see during KOTCS.

How long was that Zeppelin scene in TLC?
 
I think a diner scene would be cool. Very Back To The Future. Reminds me of a movie I saw, can't recall the title, in which guys were fighting with broken milk cartons. Very tough. Very fifties.:D

Do you mean broken milk bottles? I'm imagining greasers forming cardboard swords out of milk cartons and trying to paper cut each other. :p

No, I mean broken milk cartons! The movie was a comedy.

LOL! it is for Tennessee Star Wars Man LOL! I like yours better.

I was thinking earlier about how cool it is going to be to see indy in all of these adventurous situations and tombs.

They are being smart and putting him in some cool old places.. .they have to out-do National treasure LOL!

It reminds me of the YIJC episode "Princeton, February 1916" where, while going to high school, Indy works as a soda jerk at a local diner.

In "The Saucer Men from Mars" script, Indy doesn't hide in a fridge. He actually hides in a crawlspace beneath the floor of the Boomsburg house and covers the entrance to the crawlspace with said fridge.

INT. THE KITCHEN - DAY

Indy hops into the crawlspace and topples the fridge over the crawlspace like a lead-lined turtle shell. It fits over him just as the room glows white.

And what if that crawlspace ended up being a sort of underground shelter, with a rocket sled leading away...

Just a thought.

Arnie's Diner has Mutt's introduction written all over it.

We also heard early rumors that Indy, Mutt and a third person meet up at a "hideaway" to discuss matters.

A diner could be the setting for some plot exposition early in the movie.

That video is just surreal... gathering people to watch an atomic explosion and have them investigate the aftermath the next day... then feeding them food that was stored at the blast site...

Didn't read the entire thread but it is possible to survive the way Indy does if it was a Neutron Bomb. Basicly Neutron Bombs target Biological Material. So you could set one off and have houses still standing. Now if Indy is in a recess in the floor and pulls the Fride ontop of himself it is a fact that he could survive it.

Again, for me as a writer, that would be enough material to make it work in the context of an Indy movie and could look staggering
