>>INDIANA JONES 4 A GO

Steven Spielberg has confirmed that he will produce a fourth Indiana Jones movie starring Harrison Ford and Spielberg's wife, Kate Capshaw. In an interview with FoxNews.com's Roger Friedman, Spielberg said that the Indiana Jones film will be his priority once he completes Catch Me if You Can, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks, set for release in December. "We have a title, but we're not ready to announce it," Spielberg volunteered. "I will give you one clue, though. Kate is in it." (Capshaw co-starred in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom in 1984.) Friedman also quoted Ford as saying, "It was always about getting the right script, and now we have it." The DreamWorks fansite on the Internet greeted the revelation as "the biggest entertainment news of the new century."<<

It's not April 1st...so I guess it must be true. Mixed feelings though for me. As much as I'd love to see another Indiana Jones film...Harrison ain't getting any younger.

The good news though would be that he won't have to make crap like Random Hearts for a while.

I think the "right script" could take real advantage of Ford and Capshaw's maturity. I really enjoyed Sean Connery's role as Indy's Dad in "...Last Crusade". Maybe three generations of the Jones family in one movie???

Steven Spielberg also said:

"Arts stimulate something inside of us. I'm going to direct all my films on film until they close the last lab down."

Dare we hope for 70mm prints?

Harrison Ford is getting mighty old now. Maybe the title of the movie should be Indiana Jones and the Search For the Fountain Of Youth.

That's what the last movie was about!

Actually, Harrison Ford is not that old. He will be 60 on 13 July 2002, according to people.com

Quite frankly, Kate Capshaw was/is a very poor substitute for Karen Allen. Spielberg and Ford aways do a good job so the film won't be bad, but I think they are making a mistake. Kate Capshaw not a *bad* actress, but I feel she is simply not right for the part.

Karen Allen was as smart/tough as Jones and played the role seriously, but in a way that was fun to watch. Her character help drive the plot. Kate Capshaw just played a ditzy broad, for comic effect only.

No problem with the age, just put him in Kodak's Cineon, and take 20 years off him.
