Seems the title matches that of the ride at Disneyland Tokyo. Wonder if the film will be based on the ride? There's no dought that this ranks up there with the best of the worst movie titles...ever.

    Eh, don't mind the name so much. I just hope it's a great movie.

    At Ford's age, it'll be interesting to see how much action type stuff he does. & Will they pair him w/a chick half his age?

    Noticed that Karen Allen from the original is coming back.

    I'm betting it'll be pretty good.

    Hopefully the Crystal Skull will transform into a giant fighting robot that takes Megan Fox hostage.

    Did we need any more after the original? I think it still stands alone.

    Perhaps "Indiana Jones and the Fast and the Furious" or "Indiana Jones Does Dallas", would be better titles for you screenplay writers.

    I'm all for a new one, why not? If Mr. Bean's Holiday and Rush Hour 3, to name just TWO, can be financially brought to the big screen.....

    I'm all for a new one as well but as long as this has taken it better be damn impressive with a kick **** story but from what I've been reading so far, I have no hope that it will be that way. After all this time and the title is based off a ride, not good. Plus if it has to do with the ride and their searching for the fountain of youth, wasn't that just done in #3 with the whole Holy Grail thing?

    I believe the Holy Grail is totally seperate from the Fountain of Youth. They certainly have alot to live up to, as the series is pretty good overall. The Temple of Doom was a little cheesy. I would have thrown that kid over a cliff.

    Holy Grail / Fountain of Youth = that live forever thing.

    So many other directions they could go instead of two films that have basically same plot. But, I could be way off base here and the film could have nothing to do with the ride, I hope.

    I dont know whats worse - the movie title or the fact that Ford is 65?!

    He cant be 65! If hes 65 and Im grew up with him in his 30's on Star Wars and Raiders, then I must be.....getting older!

    My Spielberg has a first name.
    It's O-S-C-A-R.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore
