    I liked Crystal Skull - sure there were bits that were off, and sure it could have been a bit better, but I LOATHE Temple of Doom.


    Kate Capshaw is 1000 times worse than Shah La Douche.


    Don't even get me started on Short Round.

    Sure they could have Nazi's in the next one. Everyone one knows a bunch of them escaped to South America after the war, maybe they took a holy relic with them, the "Spear of Destiny" perhaps....

    @David Walker: Actually, this idea has potential. It could be tied to Jones' work during WWII, with some flashback scenes in sepia tone to show us how kick ass he used to be.


    Cut to 1950s Argentina where Jones is trying to track down the last known missing artifact from the Nazi arsenal. Leads on a chase around the world (including Egypt so we can have a Sallah cameo). The leads to the Soviet Union, where the Kremlin has taken control of the Spear and plans to use it to upset the balance of world power.


    The climax would be set in a frantic chase through East Germany, as Indy tries to get the Spear out of the country and into the West.

    If they do this, they need Sallah to be in it, they need to go after some Judeo-Christian artifact, and the antagonists have to be Nazis. Those three ingredients are present in the two good Indiana Jones movies, and are missing in the two ones that were horrible.

    Agreed. While the last film was entertaining, it wasn't GOOD like Raiders or Crusade.

    @FerrariDom: Against my better judgment I watched "Crystal Skull" and it was terrible. I should have listened to my friends. But I thought, "How bad could it be?" The south Park Episode summed it up perfectly.


    It was entertaining, I'll give you that. And you know what. If it wasn't an Indiana Jones movie, I may have actually enjoyed it more. If it was "Alan Quatermain: The Crystal Skull" I could have tolerated it. But his ass-raping of Indy was deplorable.

    @Grand_Marquis: Amen. The first words out of me and my friend's mouths when it ended were "It was better than Temple of Doom".


    I thought the Russkies made an adequate Nazi replacement, so they can be in the next one and make it another Judeo-Christian mcguffin and you're gold.

    @reddingofish: Ditto. I keep wondering what inspired Spielberg to pick Shia to play Indy's son. It's like they made a concerted effort to make sure that the next Indiana Jones would be a dorky kid rather than a swashbuckling badass. Maybe they should have picked Michael Cera. At least he knows how to make dorkiness funny.

    I'm convinced that they purposely made Shia's character that annoying in Crystal Skull so that we'll think the sequel is the best movie ever when he gets impaled through the torso in the first 5 minutes.

    If I remember correctly William Monahan and John Sayles did a draft a long time ago for Jurrasic Park 4 which was totally insane and included crossbreed dinosaurs and a group of ultra-intelligent Deinonychus that are designed to work as dino-soldiers for some evil Swiss corporation.
