New Indiana Jones Movie in works

Well I really liked the movie. I stop short at loving it and all that but like Terminator Salvation the haters on it are overly hard.
Yes KOTCS had some issues but they weren't that bad. I'd have been fine with aliens. But no, they had to be Interdimensional aliens and ones that on top of that 'lived in the spaces between the spaces'. What was wrong with just plain ole aliens? But I digress.
Bring on Indy 5

You know they'll just make an even more ludicrous scenario or scene. Indiana Jones is in submarine deep under the ocean. He escapes in barrel.
You know people sure will buy survival out of a plane by way of inflatable raft but hate on the fridge.
People will accept a gold box that houses fire and ghosts but hate on the fridge.
People will wholely buy into a cup that heals wounds and grants immortal life but hate on the fridge.
So, so, so, soooooo cynical in their adult years. I swear these people forgot how to unplug and just be entertained.

Ssshh... Don't give them ideas...

You're right, I suppose. A lot of the series seems ridiculous when I think about it, but there is something that just rubs me the wrong way about the fridge scene.
Oddly enough I have no problem with the whole aliens concept or any of the other fantastic things that happen in the series. While it's still my least favorite Indy movie, I own it and quite enjoyed watching (most) of it.
My main critique is what others have said: that Indy has lost some of his 'edge'. I think part of that is due to Ford himself. I can't quite pin point when, but there came a time in Ford's career where he seemed to be just going through the motions in a lot of his movies. It looks like he had a tad more fun doing this movie, so maybe another one would bring that joy out of Ford a little more.

I'll tell you what killed Indy: Shooting it entirely in the U.S.
In addition to some U.S. shoots, Raiders was shot in Egypt, France, Tunisia, and England.
Crystal Skull was shot entirely in the U.S.
I am of the opinion that actully getting out into the real world would have raised my Crystal Skull score from a 6 to an 8.

Right? A movie has to make sense within it's own world.... Giant Monsters can Ravage Tokyo in the Godzilla films, but people can't fly.
Indiana Jones can jump out of a plane and save himself by sitting in a raft, he can survive a nuclear blast by hiding in a fridge.
Quite frankly, I found the fridge scene frickin' hilarious. In the theater, half of use were cheering, the other half groaning. I think I laughed until I cried.
I loved it.
Frankly, it was the best part of the film, and that was the problem. We started out with a HUGE bang at the start of the film. I thought we'd keep keeping going up and up from there, but no. The film ended with the good guys and the bad guys both fighting to do the same thing (return the head). Wow, nice exciting ending, there!
If you play the movie backwards it's quite good.
That and if it didn't have aliens and nukes.
However I can't wait for the next South Park episode about it.
Maybe Indy will be dying of cancer in the next one. "I guess the fridge didn't work."

DO NOT WANT.
Wow. Almost every "anti" post could have come right after Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. But then we got a real gem in the third one.
Maybe it's the opposite of the Trek movies. The odd-numbered ones are the best in this franchise.
I have liked all four for different reasons (finding the second the weakest by far because of Mrs. Spielberg's character and Short Round).

I liked Indy 4 OK, but I think it's time to throw in the towel. And I will NOT EVER go see a Mutt movie. If they think they can market Shia LeB.O. as Indy's son and a watchable action hero, they're quite nuts.
I'd love to see an Indy 5, and for one reason: Infodroid. The fan editor who Raiders-ified The Last Crusade and carved a good Indy out of the awful Temple of Doom is hard at work on Crystal Skull, and the "Decontaminated" result, which should come out before the end of summer, will almost certainly be a heaping helping of awesome.
I hope this is true. Indy is one of my favorite characters and I'd love to see him again. I hope Mutt is much improved if they use him again, though.
And I loved the fridge.

Well, I'll be all for an Indy 5 if they bring back the badass and maybe give Mutt some balls y'know? I dunno if Shia can do that... but give him the right material y'know? I'd love to see them maybe tackle some other "mysteries", Atlantis like someone else mentioned, maybe something in Pompeii... uhm... something... interesting, something unsolved as of yet. Something... mysterious and not just aliens. Please no aliens.
As long as Indy, Marion, Mutt and Sallah are there ,I'm there... oooo what if they have to rescue Short Round who got captured by the Chinese or Japanese after he found some ancient artifact, like some kind of prophesy that Confucius wrote that accurately tells the future

These people are artistic parasites.
What's Indiana Jones 4? They only made three. Seriously, does anyone really want a fifth? It would be just as bad as the last. Has anyone learned anything from the Star Wars prequels?
Not only did they not but you actually watched all four of them.
I do.
I enjoyed it.
I learned that fanboy whining was much more annoying than flawed popcorn movies.
