I was one of the 80s babies that got to see one of my favorite hero's, Han Solo, don a fedora & bullwhip in Indiana Jones & The Temple Of Doom . I immediately had my dad rent Raiders Of The Lost Ark, & from that point on, the 2 out of 7 days a week I didn't have a lightsaber in my hand, I had a bullwhip. Needless to say we both were first in line for Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade, the film I personally think is the best out of the series. Fast forward too many years later & Lucasfilm gives us a forgettable 4th part that felt more like the serials that inspired this series than the series itself. Saddest part is, I dug the plot, it was just very poorly executed. So I was very surprised today while watching Collider & hearing THR sources confirm that Spielberg is going to give Ford another run in the fedora. Set to release July 10, 2020, hopefully this can make up for the silly mess that was The Crystal Skull. We're 3 for 4, so I'm not terribly worried this can't work. I just hope they know how to use Indy still. We need adventure, high stakes, & somehow, Nazi's. Those three things do a good Indiana Jones make. Maybe stop trying to be as funny as last time. As bad as the fridge scene was, nothing will ever be as bad in my mind as watching LaBeouf swing through the jungle with monkeys. What do y'all think though? Lucasfilm will go back to being a two truck pony. Put it in the comments, like, & share.
