From Wikipedia:
The introduction of Mutt Williams (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutt_Williams) (Shia LaBeouf (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shia_LaBeouf)) in Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Jones_and_the_Kingdom_of_th e_Crystal_Skull) has led to speculation that he will take over the franchise from Ford.[34] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Jones_franchise#cite_note-33) In an interview with IGN (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IGN), "[Spielberg] indicated that LaBeouf has to make multiple Transformers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformers_(film)) movies before he can move over and take on the fedora and bullwhip of Indiana Jones."[35] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Jones_franchise#cite_note-34) The actor himself said, "Am I into it? Who wouldn't be? I don't think that's reality. It's a fun rumor."[36] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Jones_franchise#cite_note-35) Ford said he would return for a fifth film if it doesn't take another twenty years to develop,[37] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Jones_franchise#cite_note-36) while Spielberg responded it would happen "only if you [the audience] want more".[38] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Jones_franchise#cite_note-37)
George Lucas made another suggestion that there would be a fifth film. While at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Cannes_Film_Festival), he revealed his idea "to make Shia [LaBeouf] the lead character next time and have Harrison [Ford] come back like Sean Connery did in [the third film]". Lucas has also said that age will not be a factor, as Ford was "65 and did everything in [Crystal Skull]. The old chemistry is there, and it's not like he's an old man. He's incredibly agile; he looks even better than he did 20 years ago, if you ask me".[39] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Jones_franchise#cite_note-38) In August 2008, Lucas was researching potential plot devices, and stated Spielberg was more open to the idea of the fifth film.[40] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Jones_franchise#cite_note-39) He also changed his mind about continuing the series with a spin-off, joking "Indiana Jones is Indiana Jones. Harrison Ford is Indiana Jones. If it was Mutt Williams it would be Mutt Williams and the Search for Elvis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elvis_Presley) or something."[41] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Jones_franchise#cite_note-40) Two months later, Ford stated that he would return if it was not an animated film like The Clone Wars (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars:_The_Clone_Wars_(film)), because "I'd hate to see it reduced in any way from the movies that we have done and the way we have done them." He also called Lucas' concept for the fifth film "crazy but great".[42] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiana_Jones_franchise#cite_note-41)

I'd love another, loved the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. I don't want a Mutt centered plot, that would put a knife in it, I think. Thoughts?

I though I was the only one who like The Crystal Skull!

But this has been in plans for a while, I'll go see it whenever it gets released.

The last one was bad enough. Doubt I'll see it in theaters unless it gets great reviews. I'll probably end up getting it on netflix

I fucking love it, watching it now.

Same, can't wait.

Fair enough. I think the sooner they do another the better, Ford is getting old and it's nothing without him.

Without Ford the franchise is done. And for Indi 4 I thought it was pretty good up until the end which pretty much ruined the entire movie. The ending was so amazingly dumb it turned me off to the entire movie

The ending was ridiculous, but just look past that(it's hard, I know), and it's a great movie.

Well, in all fairness, the other three have endings with their own ridiculous elements. You have to sort of acknowledge that it's not going to be completely realistic, haha.

I really liked Shia Lebouf's character in 4

I could've sworn I heard more than once that Shia said he wouldn't do it unless both Ford and Spielberg were both involved.

i couldn't get into crystal skull. i'm not sure why, but something about it just rubbed me the wrong way. i'll probably check out the new one though.

it definitely would put a knife in it; it would also disappoint so many people.

Not a great movie. Even though I like it more than most.

an Indiana Jones movie without Harrison Ford is NOT an Indiana Jones movie

I still need to see the fourth one.

11/15/08, 01:50 PM

The 4th movie was a fun movie, although I haven't seen the other 3, so I suppose my opinion is void.

Im all for another Indy flick.

I watch Crystal Skull on repeat at work all the time. Mostly to annoy other employees with the score and watch customers reactions to the 2-3 times the word bitch is used, but hey, we are allowed to watch it.

I wasnt crazy about it in theaters, but after a dvd watch of it i liked it.
It really grew on me.

indiana jones was raped...as vividly depicted in south park. However, i'd love to see an indy movie about finding atlantis. i think that could salvage the horribleness of the crystal skull.

This (though I hated certain aspects of the movie throughout)

Yes...that I'd like to see. I remember that Spielberg really wanted to do that story for the fourth one for the longest time but Lucas didn't want to do it. I hope that if a fifth one gets made, this is the story they do.

One of the worst movies ever made. Anyone that likes this shit - doesn't deserve an opinion.

Haha, it was really bad. My mom and step dad had never seen it so they rented it one night. I let them know my thoughts on it before they watched it and then I walked away. After it was over my mom told me, "well that right there just proved you can't go back," and my stepdad said, "It was like a really expensive public service announcement. Knowledge is power, but not too much knowledge, because then an alien will set you on fire."

they have another one planned already.

and i think there might be a "Journey to Atlantis", which would be a sequel to the new "Journey to the Center of the Earth"
they hinted at it in the last scene of the movie
