    Could be more awkward.

    Marion: "How's our son?"
    Indy: "Who?"

    I just now realized that he's Mutt and he's the Poochie of this franchise

    I'm with you on Crystal Skull, but I didn't feel Crystal Skull was like the 50's B movies I'd seen where atomic radiation seemed to enlarge insects and women seem to scream at them with a blood curdling vibe*. The aliens in the movie should've been 50 feet tall and menacing... like 50's B movies.

    *You know, something seen and embraced in a Sam Raimi film which is a homage to those pictures.

    Can't imagine using another culture to be as advanced to create an artefact that can be used as a time machine.

    Think the movie will be kind of a reboot of Fate of Atlantis, with some bigger changes like the time travel elements instead of the orichalkum powered mutations.

    Also think the title could be a riff on Fate of Atlantis.

    Fate = Destiny
    Atlantis = Dial

    Woulldn't really be much of a reboot since the story hasn't been done on big screen Indy in the first place. At most, it could be inspired by it, but I doubt it will have much in common with it.

    Some of the scenes in the trailer seem to be recreations of ones in the game.

    That'd be putting too much stock on an old game that most wouldn't be aware of today. At most, I could see maybe it got influenced by it if any involved played the game, but any more than that sounds extremely unlikely.

    I mean, Indiana Jones pulls from really basic storytelling adventure elements. The repetitive nature of these themes does not indicate use of a past installment.

    "You stole it."
    "Then you stole it."
    "Then I stole it. It's called capitalism."

    I'm all in for one last adventure in the fedora!

    Time travel of some kind must happen since passenger vehicles didn't have seatbelts in the time of Nazi Germany ("Fasten your seatbelt. There might be some turbulence.") and Mads Mikkelsen's villain looks much older while in the German uniform.

    Nothing too revealing, although it's interesting how they're still hedging about who Helena's father is when the trailer all but tells us it's Basil Shaw as played by Toby Jones. Unless it's misdirection but I doubt it.
