Harrison Ford Confirms Another Indiana Jones Gaining Momentum
www.firstshowing.net - 3rd Oct 2008
George Lucas: We've neglected to write about any potential continuation of the Indiana Jones saga because its been such a touchy subject ever since Kingdom of the Crystal Skull hit theaters in May. I'm pretty sure that most people hated the fourth film and don't want to see another one at all, but there are also those die hard Indiana Jones fans who do want to see it continue. Geoff Boucher of the LA Times blog Hero Complex caught up with the legendary
Harrison Ford recently. Apparently
George Lucas is already hard at work on coming up with a story for a fifth film.
Ford says, "It's crazy but great…
George is in think mode right now."
The first question I've got to ask when I hear this news is: why? Well, remarkably, Crystal Skull ended up making $317 million domestically and $783 million worldwide, which is more than enough to warrant a sequel. "It's automatic, really, we did well with the last one and with that having done well and been a positive experience, it's not surprising that some people want to do it again,"
Ford said. Of course that makes sense, I guess it's just a matter of really hoping that
Lucas doesn't come up with any ideas involving prairie dogs or monkeys or giant waterfalls. Being a die hard Indiana Jones fan myself, I admit that I'd love to see another, especially with
Ford holding onto the reigns (and not passing them off to Shia LaBeouf).
Boucher asked
Ford who exactly was bringing up the idea of another sequel. His answer, oddly, doesn't single anyone out, instead, he makes a spiritual comment. "Really, it comes from the ethos, from the ether. It's natural. It's a way of nature, of course, success breeds [sic] opportunities … also we don't stay as closely in contact as have in the last year, that's part of it." Considering it is
Lucas who is working on story ideas, I'm guessing he's the frontrunner. I think it will definitely take a lot for
Lucas and Spielberg to recover from the Crystal Skull backlash, but the fans will be there to really help it out. Like with Spider-Man 4 as well, I've got to ask: how many people want to see another Indiana Jones movie?

The Star Report: License to print money dept: let's do a 5th Indiana Jones movie!
The gold-plated movie-making machinery of George Lucas is working overtime trying to figure out if it's too soon to ramp up the talk of a fifth Indiana Jones movie, even though the fourth iteration is still in theaters.
Guess what? It's not too early! And why is that, you might ask? It's because the last one, the one about some sort of crystal skull, made $318 million in the U.S. alone and $770 million worldwide. Add in some merchandising and pretty soon you're talking about real money.

Harrison Ford All But Confirms 'Indiana Jones and the Temple of the $100 Million Payday' [The End Of Ideas]
It would be too easy to say that Harrison Ford hit the Crystal Head Vodka a little hard before today's interview at the LA Times; how else to explain his eagerness to jump aboard Indiana Jones 5 so soon after the franchise's fourth installment? He's 66! George Lucas can't settle on a script! And Shia still has months of recovery ahead for his pinkie and balls. All signs but the dollar say "stop," but that's all the actor apparently needed to wax fantastic about the potential pouring forth everywhere from th

Harrison Ford: George Lucas writes Indiana Jones 5
George Lucas is writing Indiana Jones 5. This is because Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull made $317 million in US alone and $783 million overseas.

“It’s crazy but great”
Well I for one, think the opposite.
It’s not crazy because Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull made a ton of money. George Lucas likes said money and likes continuing his two biggest franchises (even if they are getting worse by doing so).
It’s also not g

Stop Lucas: Harrison Ford Updates on Indiana Jones 5
We’ve known that George Lucas—who apparently chews on fanboy disappointment like Popeye does spinach—is considering another Indiana Jones sequel, even though a proposed Mutt Williams torch-passing seems more and more unlikely (and hokey). Harrison Ford expressed interest over the summer in making an Indiana Jones 5, and preferably sooner than later. The actor’s stance hasn’t changed. He chatted with Hero Complex and gave this New Age-y update…

Rrrip! Harrison Ford splits his pants
With all the globe-trotting, movie-promoting and whip-wielding, Harrison Ford clearly hasn't had time to visit a tailor lately.
Ford, 65, was caught with a rip in the seat of his pants outside the AMC Magic Johnson Theater in Harlem Wednesday.
There to promote his newest "Indiana Jones" film, Ford was also invited to appear on BET's music show "106 & Park," where he performed a few dance moves, according to the Daily Mail. Perhaps his hip-hop dancing explains the tear?
