With Ridley Scott giving us a Ripley-free Alien movie, it wouldn't be surprising if his new Blade Runner project didn't include Harrison Ford's replicant hunter Deckard. But Harrison Ford may be picking up the blaster for a direct Blade Runner sequel. More »

The cast of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back did a series of interviews promoting the film, and the video is pretty revealing. The best part: Mark Hamill discusses speculation that his son Nathan could play a young Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars prequels. According to Hamill, the prequels would take place 20 years before the original Star Wars, and the third movie would feature "an eight-year-old Luke playing in the background." Also: Harrison Ford discusses whether Han Solo would appear in episodes seven, eight and nine. [Vimeo, via The Official Star Wars Blog] More »

But one thing he does know about it? "It's crazy but great," apparently. Hey, Harrison - take off those last two words and you're closer to the truth. [LA Times] More »

When I first saw the words "Blade Runner 2," I imagined it was somebody's zany comedy pitch, along the lines of Hamlet 2. I pictured Steve Coogan running around, exploding in a creative frenzy as he figures out the space-time warp that could bring back Roy Batty — maybe there could be a whole half-hour sequence where Roy Batty stands in the rain and lists more stuff he's seen! — and Sexy Jesus could turn out to be a Replicant. Sadly, Blade Runner 2 is not a joke, it's a real project that apparently has one of the original Blade Runner producers involved. The good news is, no studio has yet signed on. Update: Apparently it's definitely not happening. Yay! More »

Harrison Ford's science will save two small children suffering from Pompe disease in CBS's new movie Crowley, based on the true story of a real life family's struggle from the book, The Cure. Ford is cast as the plays-by-his-own-rules scientist hell bent on finding the cure for the genetic disease Pompe, which gradually degenerates the victim's muscle tissue until it's impossible to even breathe.

Shia LaBoeuf will be the dorky straight man to Harrison Ford's wisecracking old-timer in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. This new TV trailer shows a bit more of the duo's dynamic, and there's a lot of Shia gaping while Indy does something daring or smirkingly calls him a genius. I'm also surer than ever that I will run out and buy a Cate Blanchett action figure at the first opportunity. More »

This cover image from the comic-book adaptation of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull looks way cooler than the teaser poster we've been seeing. And it gives you more of a flavor of the movie, both good and bad. Good: Karen Allen, Dominatrix Cate Blanchett, and a whip-swinging Indy. Plus there's that pesky extraterrestrial-looking crystal skull staring at you, asking you why you stopped reading Whitley Streiber novels. Bad: Ray Winstone looks like Jack Black with his Nacho Libre mustache, and the image of Shia LaBoeuf driving Indy in his "I'm a teacher!" suit makes us cringe a bit. Click through for more info.

If you remember your history, you can probably recall Indy pointing a bazooka at Belloq and the Ark of the Covenent in the original Raiders of the Lost Ark. He threatens to blow it up and send them all back to God, but in the end he just can't do it. Does that mean he'll get a second chance in The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull? Maybe he's using it as a parenting aid for those moments when Shia gets a bit unruly. At any rate, it looks like Marion drives a car, Indy points (and we hope, shoots) a rocket propelled grenade, and Shia probably says "No, no, no, no!" a lot. [Empire Magazine] More »

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has a new photograph out today, all packed with cobwebs and spiders. It also looks like Shia LaBeouf's uniform throughout the film will be his greaser biker jacket, helping hammer home the whole "Hey, I'm a teenaged rebel, man!" attitude. If he picks up the whip once and swings it, we're calling shenanigans. We've got the full story on what's happening in this photo. More »

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull will be hitting theater screens on May 22nd, marking nineteen years since we've seen the whip-swinging archeaologist going after mysterious antiquities and occasionally teaching school.

Blade Runner is enjoying a resurgence in popularity — the new cut hit theaters last month, and a five-disc ultra edition coming out on DVD next month. Now, rumors have it that Hollywood may churn out a sequel to this classic about rogue androids and the reluctant "Blade Runner" cop (Harrison Ford) who tracks them down. Author Paul Sammon, who has made an entire career out of talking about the movie, says that Director Ridley Scott is "not loathe" to the idea of a sequel to the classic 1982 film. But a sequel would be a disaster. More »
