That's why it feels organic. It's not a story by committee- it's living, breathing creation. Based upon pure emotion. Not that it's the best way to do cinema, but it's WAAAY better than just a formulation by a group that all need to agree (KOTCS).
They had great chemistry, I thought. It's fun film.
Between her and Stacey Sutton of AVTAK, it makes you wonder what was up with writing female characters in action films in the mid '80s.
Also, gotta love this tweet by Amblin featuring a “Steven” in the profile name. ;)
Agreed. She worked very well with her limited material....

Well, I'm guessing an almost 80 year old making an action movie might have something to do with it. ;)
True. At least we know it's not going to be a cgi fight!
"Also, I really hope @mang0ld is bringing back John Rhys-Davies as Sallah in Indy 5. Would absolutely make my day"
At this point I think it's safe to say Sallah will be back, despite the non-PC nature of the role. They are taking a huge risk with this in my opinion.
Just because some would have an issue, doesn’t mean everyone has to obey the PC crowd.
Yes, bringing him back would make me a little concerned that we'd be going down this route to some extent- he was good but I have no particular desire to see him again. Still, if he is in it I guess we'd have to see what their reason for bringing him back is.
I agree that liking that tweet does seem a bit of a hint.
Kind of odd that Mangold hasn't tweeted about Ford's injury that I've seen, bearing in mind it's the only official statement we've really had since they started filming.
Bringing back a beloved old character and then disrespecting them massively is basic to current film-making IMO.
Also, I’m worried about CGI. Now that Ford has injured himself rehearsing for a fight scene, I don’t think they’re going to risk him on physical fights any more. So, his fights will now be CGI.
I feel a bit of a lone voice but I am worried that this film could turn out to be heartbreakingly disappointing.
It’s ok to be cautious, there are some warning signs, and some big expectations. Keep those low, and it’s just another Indiana Jones movie, for better or worse. I wouldn’t be surprised if Disney turned Indy into their Bond franchise, if just for a little while.
I wish they would, to be honest.
The first three will always be on a pedestal, and that's fine- they're amazing. But then so was Goldfinger, and I'm really happy they kept making Bond films after that! :D
(Although I love Bond and the whole 007 series, I do think that the first three Indy films are each better than than any one Bond film- they're pretty perfectly crafted and slick where even the best Bond looks a bit ragged in comparison)

Though I won't deny I feel a jolt of excitement every time a possible title comes my way.
Thanks for the heads up, @Mr_Beach!
I hope it's really pulpy and silly. That's one thing Lucas had a good eye for.
Originally the idea was that the series would be called 'Raiders of...' each time: they wanted to make three right from the start but didn't intend them to each be titled 'Indiana Jones and...' . But I guess because they had so much energy at the time they decided to call the follow-up 'Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom' which is just about the most exciting movie title ever :D
