Indiana Jones and the Endless Jokes About Harrison Ford's Age
The title and logo for the new Indiana Jones movie are out. Wait for it:  It's pretty hard to get excited about this. It's a very cumbersome title, for a start (Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Skull would be better). And according to a quick Wikipedia search - surely the definitive source for information about bullshit mythology - the Crystal Skull ties into folklore about both Atlantis and the Knights Templar. Atlantis is not a promising concept (all films involving scenes set underwater suck) and the Knights Templar link raises too many other links to both Last Crusade and The Da Vinci Code. The rumour is we'll see the first trailer in front of Robert Zemeckis' Beowulf in November. Labels: indiana jones, rumours, spielberg Posted by Stephen Rowley @ 17.9.07
