I have no idea if this requires a cut, but just in case...



Cate Blanchett!! Whee! Though this line amused me...

... it is unclear what character Blanchett will play. But sources told the trade paper that the Oscar-winning actress has landed a starring role. (via SciFi Wire)

You think? Hmmm... Duh. Like she's going to be some second string character.

Now, I haven't been thrilled with what George has done with my other favourite franchise, so here's hoping I don't hate this movie as much as the last three Star Wars films. Because then I'd be peeved. But for now, I'm exctied, becasue I love Cate, and couldn't think of anyoone I'd like to see more in the film.

I'm leery already based on rumors that the movie will involve Indiana's...son. Apparently the producer or director or writer or someone involved has never yet done a movie that didn't revolve around a child as a primary character. This does not fill me with hope.

And frankly, I think Harrison Ford is too old for this project. If this is a last hurrah for the original team, fine, whatever. If they want to make more of these, I think it's time to recast the same way the Bond films do.

Finally, I wish could take credit for it but I can't. A friend came up with it. If this film takes place as long after the original films in story time as it does in the real world, that places Indiana smack in the middle of the 60s. So clearly, the title of the film could only be:

INDIANA JONES AND THE SUMMER OF LOVE

that's interesting.........

I've read some odd Indiana Jones IV scripts. I hope it's nothing like them.

I detested the new SW movies. Anakin was such a freaking wimp in all of them. The only tolerable thing in them was Qui Gon and Obi Wan.

You know, the idea of a new Indiana Jones movie worries me. I hate to say it, but Harrison Ford is past it when it comes to that kind of action flick.
