    I think the guys at South Park are correct in their assessment that him and Speilberg are raping their past to come up with things to put on film.

    That may be the case, but Speilberg has 10x the talent Lucas ever will. Speilberg has many successes while Locas only has Star Wars.

    Star Wars was poorly directed as well, I was there and he made ME out to be the bad guy! The story of Star Wars would have been a much better film if Lucas had let Speilberg direct it...

    Nope, Lucas owns THX. The best part was returning the dvd and saying it was defective. They asked if it was not playing, I said it was playing but it has to be defective because it sucked so bad. Did I rent the parody or something?

    From the "Stuff".

    If there is any truth to this article I do like what it says...
    Harrison Ford's final outing as Indiana Jones will be "emotional and exciting" as the franchise heads back to its roots after a badly received fourth instalment.

    Ford is well-known for his portrayal of the archaeologist and adventurer, and has agreed to reprise the role one last time.

    Indiana Jones 5 will begin shooting next year, and much of the plot line will be centred around the Bermuda Triangle, an area over the North Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft are said to have disappeared.

    "George (Lucas) and Steven (Spielberg) have been working on a script and it's almost there," a source explained.

    "Harrison is on stand-by for filming next year. This looks like being an emotional and exciting conclusion to the franchise, with Indy facing his biggest challenge yet."

    The last film in the franchise, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, was released in 2008 and performed well at the box office, but was savaged by critics.

    Shia LaBeouf played Indiana's son Mutt Williams, and he will also appear in the new instalment.

    Movie bosses have assured fans the film will stay true to the series' roots, and won't contain lots of state-of-the-art special effects.

    "Shia LaBeouf has a central role again as Indy's son but this will be a blockbuster made in the old fashioned way rather than the CGI efforts of the last movie," the source added.

    I cannot think of a more believeable storyline than one centered on the Bermuda Triangle...:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:


    The best part of the article is the promise of it being the last.

    All you need to know :
    "George (Lucas) .... [has] been working on a script and it's almost there," a source explained.

    There's your answer, it will suck.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    I thought the 3rd film was much better then #2, that one was nearly as bad as #4.

    Bah? That doesn't make them science fiction. Why not just have everyone fly? Would that bother you?

    I enjoy movies nowadays for their acting, action scenes and special effects, because I know that I can't expect the story to be worthwhile. Therefor, I really enjoyed the latest Transformers, Iron Man, Indiana Jones, etc.

    Did I enjoy their "originals" better? Of course.

    It is really disorienting when someone quotes something you said almost a year ago...

    I'm like "wait, did I say that?" ;)
