<a href=INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL" /> Roger Friedman of "Fox News" recently caught up with alterna-Beard George Lucas and he mentioned an interest in bringing Indy back for another adventure after INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL. In this one, however, young Shia LeBeouf would take center stage. Says Monsieur Beard: "I haven’t even told Steven or Harrison this. But I have an idea to make Shia [LeBeouf] the lead character next time and have Harrison [Ford] come back like Sean Connery did in the last movie. I can see it working out." Well, Georgie, you'd be the only one. What is it with The Beef that's got Lucas and Steven Spielberg all giddy like schoolgirls? Whatever it is, be prepared for INDIANA JONES AND THE BEING REPLACED BY THE EVEN STEVENS KID. Read more of what Lucas had to say at the above link. Indy goes at it with Cate Blanchett on May 22nd.

This is a horrific idea. Thankfully, this is before George has told Harrison or Steven the idea. I hope to god they reject this shitty idea. No wonder the Star Wars trilogy was going downhill. I hope the same doesn't befall Indy. I honestly believe the day Harrison Ford dies, Indiana Jones dies. There's no one else that should be Indy in a main Indiana Jones movie.

Harrison Ford IS indiana jones. No one else should play him. Young indy the show sucked so much because no one else should portray an iconic character established so well by ford. I like shia, but the whole son-spinoff thing sounds awful. Who wants to see an indy type movie set in a time period like the 1960's or 70's. Is he gonna be fighting the Vietnemese next, or hippies? Terrible Idea....

You know why he rejected the script, probably because it finalised everything and ended the franchise on a massively high note. This meant there was no way he could keep the franchise going, if Spielberg still drops by Joblo every once in a while then for christ's sake I hope he sees this

Im fucking tired of crap like this.
First I hate George Lucas.



Second, WTF is up with these stories. I remember reading the same kind of story for Die Hard 5 and Rambo 5 just prior to the release of the next installment, but where are the stories saying they actually greenlit these movies? I can't find them, and as a huge Die Hard fan, I have looked high and low for confirmation.

Now about the article. It is a shame that George Lucas is involved with this. Star Wars is gay because of him now, and it looks like the same will happen to Indy. Why does Steven Spielberg even want to be friends with him anymore? He didn't get final say over the script or the title, which in the case of the both sucks because I have a feeling the supernatural part of this installment will be overplayed to high extreme. The title, well I guess that its about a crystall skull and its found in a kingdom.



Also, the traiers. Most of my friends gave a tepid to lukewarm response to all of them, saying it just doesn't seem incredible enough. So I wonder if George suggested the whole, little to no plot in trailers idea, which I am all for, but doesn't sell a film.



In short, Hollywood, You really need to kick George in the balls and then shove his ass out of the movie idustry, this past decade he has caused more harm then good.



I will definatly see Indiana Jones Opening night with a shit ton of concessions, but if this movie sucks, the only reason it will have made any money at all will be because of all the prebought tickets from eveyone else.

I like how the only Greenlight in this whole Strike Back is someone saying how good Batman's going to be. That said:



Georgie's lost his marbles. He's a danger to himself and his fans. He's ruining his legacy.

Does George Lucas like shooting himself in the foot
I dont mind Shia LaBouf but they can not have an Indy movie with out Harrison Ford as Indy cuz he is Indy. I think George Lucas has past his prime or just completely lost his mind, especially if he hasnt even mentioned it to Harrison and Steven, Harrison is irreplacable in my book.

The only way that is even remotely possible is if Shia manages to wow everyone in his portrayal of Indy's son. Even if he does why does that mean he should replace Indy in the next one?

Simply put it doesn't, if an Indy 5 does happen they are better off keeping both characters and maybe even bringing Connery back if he can be wooed out of retirement (doubtful at best). Well that is if his character hasn't been killed off in dialogue in this movie to explain his absence.

Lucas is determined to piss everyone off...
After building up a massive fan base, he has spent the last decade or so determined to rip it down. Honestly, how else can you explain him messing aroud with the DVD releases of The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones, taking out some of fans favorite/most nostalgic parts from the episodes? Not to mention, placing the episodes in some random order that nobody has yet to decipher.

A) Indiana Jones is one of very few characters who cannot be played by another actor. Everything that makes the character rests on Harrison Ford's shoulders. His line delivery and humanity are what make him. James Bond is a different story. James Bond is less a character then he is a device to move through action scenes. Don't get me wrong, I love James Bond, but he's the thinnest character there is. B) Shia LaBeouf is only "in" right now... If he doesn't actually do a non-blockbuster movie soon and prove he's more then just a whiney face, I can't see him sticking around the spotlight. C) Essentially Lucas argues that he'd pretty much do the exact same movie as Last Crusade...yeah...you've got a lot of originality there pal.

Anyway, I'm glad to read that I'm not the only one who thinks that LaBeouf (and his single facial expression) is just the latest overrated (and annoying) actor that Hollywood's trying to convince us is the 'Next Big Thing!'



And does anyone else remember what an arrogant, little horse's @$$ he came across as in 'Project Greenlight' some years ago? Yikes.

You agreed with me and disagreed with me at the same time. There's no point in anyone taking over for Harrison Ford in the pre-existing timeline, but a younger actor playing Young Indy could do well as he edges toward 1935.

Harrison Ford is not irreplaceable.
He's imitable, but not irreplaceable. That's like saying no other actor than Connery could play James Bond (and I know there are people out there who think that). But the fact is, the movie made the man as much as the man made the movie. Even Hugh Jackman could play Indiana Jones today (can't wait for people to freak out on that comment).



Don't get me wrong, I love Ford as...
He's imitable, but not irreplaceable. That's like saying no other actor than Connery could play James Bond (and I know there are people out there who think that). But the fact is, the movie made the man as much as the man made the movie. Even Hugh Jackman could play Indiana Jones today (can't wait for people to freak out on that comment).



Don't get me wrong, I love Ford as Indy, but I still think another actor playing Young Indiana Jones is the best direction to take this franchise.

They should call it "Indiana Jones: the rise of The Beef". But then again I'm not sure what direction it would take with a title like that.

He really doesn't understand the charm and appeal of Indy, does he?

It's about INDY. Not Mutt.

Without INDY being the star, it's no longer the adventures of INDIANA JONES. Who's INDY? Harrison Ford, that's who. None could replace that.

this shits gone too far.. Shia Lebouf is the most overrated non "Next Tom Hanks" in recent memory. The kid has the same gee wiz look on his face throughout an ENTIRE movie. He just yells a lot and gives a quick delivery.. hes fucking awful.

I just don't get it.
Why not do a theatrical "Young Indiana Jones" movie? They're rife with potential. Sean Patrick Flannery had some great adventures. There are a myriad story ideas there. "Young Indiana Jones" George!

shit....
That is a huge bad idea in the history of bad ideas! If they are doing that then that they should not even make one at all!! Expect me to NOT be there for the 5th one.

And Omar, it's Russkies this time and not Nazis. It's set in 1957 and by then the Nazis would have been hiding in caves with their gold funding Uwe Boll movies

You've lost it Lucas!
Harrison Ford playing second fiddle to maybe the single most overrated kid actor in years. Bad bad idea.
