<div class="IPBDescription">I hope it doesn't suck... Geroge Lucas?</div> <a href='http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0367882/' target='_blank'>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0367882/</a>

With Spielberg as the director, do you thing Lucas can screw it up too badly?

I loved the Indiana Jones movies. There was just somthing about them that I love. IMO, Indiana Jones > Star Wars with it's perfect blend of action and comody and other genres.

Anyway... George Lucas friggin scares me.

    Well at least Harrison Ford is still Indy, apparently.

    They'd BETTER not screw it up. The Indy trilogy is one of my favourite film series. Last Crusade was on TV just last night, too <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Good God. Get over yourself. George Lucas was present and correct on the last 3 films, and they were hardly crap now were they?

    Really, some people ought to form their own opinions.

    Lucas wasn't just present on the first 3 films: he <i>invented</i> Indiana Jones. I think it's safe to say he knows what he's doing.

    Remeber how good Star Wars was... before the new ones?

    er... how can anyone here even CONTEST the fact that Lucas royally boned Star Wars with the new episodes?
  • OttoDestructOttoDestruct Join Date: 2002-11-08 Member: 7790Members
    Lucas is gonna go back and edit the guy in Temple of Doom with the sword / gun scene and make it where he actually gets a swing off before Indy shoots him. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    i also have this fear. Honestly, i hope he'll leave Spielberg to most of the decision-making. He's lost credibility for me after finding out what he's done to the original Star Wars films, and the new ones to an extent. They weren't *terrible*, but they were definetly not up to snuff with the originals. Anyway, here's hoping.

    Um... he also <i>worked</i> on the first 3 star wars movies... look what he did to the new ones...

    I'm just hoping that Speilberg is smart enough not to give Lucas too much power...

    what did he do to the new ones? huh ****? what the hell wrong did he do with them? do you have somthing against starwars you damn trekkie? do you? i dont see anything wrong with them, except for the fact you plauged them by setting your trekkie eyes on them. everybody saw those part of the story, or at least me and many of the other starwars fans did. what, do you not want darth vader to be lukes father? would you rather not have awesome cg effects in the movies? how about we scrap obi-wan too huh?

    (Please excuse the poor grammar. I'm very tired)

    One word... midichlorians.

    Oh, and don't you dare forget about Jar Jar Binks... <i><span style='color:#FF0000'>shudders</span></i>

    Then there's what Lucas is doing to the original films... I can see re adding effects in and improving the quality of the original footage, but taking out original cast members and replacing them with people who weren't even born when the originals were out pisses me off.

    I used to admire Lucas, then he decided he didn't have enough money...

    Indiana Jones was born on January 1, 1900.

    Given that Harrison's in his 60s now, I wonder whether he'll be duking it out with the Cold War Soviets this time around. Sure its fun to see him outfox more Nazis, but it just doesn't seem like his age would fit in anymore. (I'm placing my bets that they'll be involving a 'big evil army', since two of the classic three did.)

    at the end of the new Indiana Jones, Indie falls in love with none other than Jar Jar Binks
  • OmegamanOmegaman Join Date: 2004-01-11 Member: 25239Members
    I think this next one is supposed to be about Indy being old and his Daughter carrying on the legacy of awesomeness.

    Midichlorines.
    Jar-Jar Binks.
    Pod-Racers (how do those things even work?)
    Casting that god-awful kid as Anakin (that little runt is supposed to grow up to be the second most powerful Sith?!)
    Senator Palpatine (so much for subtelty, or mystery).
    DARTH F***ING MAUL.
    Anakin building C-3PO. What the **** is that about? This droid who's only purpose is to translate and deal with vocalization can't recognize his creator 30 odd years later?

    Hell, the only thing I liked about Episode I was the prospect that that stupid little kid would fall into a magma pit eventually. Well, that and the easter-egg of Manny Calavera.

    I thought the Pod Racer thing was a pretty nice attempt at adding something new to the Star Wars universe. Too bad it was and never will be as awesome as the infamous scene from Ben Hur.

    Hmmm.... Episode I pod-racer sequence, or Episode IV Death-Star Trench Run sequence...
