: and I hope everyone out in Indy land can cheer me up.
: I was so excited about Rick McCallum's comments yesterday
: and then to be knocked back to earth today...hurt....
: I still think Indy IV is gonna happen and I would like to
: think that it will begin lensing sooner than 4-5 more YEARS....
: yikes...anyho,

: My thoughts are this;

: Ford will make What Lies Beneath starting in August, then
: move on to fulll-fill his 3 picture Jack Ryan deal, so thats likely
: to be The Sum of All Fears and then I HOPE he does Indy
: so that we fans have a reason to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of
: Raiders in 2001.

: Lucas will go about making Star Wars II..since that is a 2002 release,
: I could see him taking a break and just producing the pic. McCallum
: is right when he says INDY is Spielberg's thing in terms of direction.

: Spielberg will film Minority Report, Memoirs of A Geisha, and then
: prepare for Indy IV..

: which will be released in the year 2525.....

: (Lame Sixities joke)

: if anyone out there can cheer me up, I would surely appreciate it.

Well, the 20th anniversary would be a great time for an Indy 4 release. Look at it this way, original Star Wars nostalgia drives Lucas to repeat history by producing an Indiana Jones flick between The Phantom Menace and the next installment of Star Wars. Besides, Lucas seems to like anniversaries... hadn't our favorite writer/producer re-release Star Wars on it's 20th anniversary? Maybe if The Mummy is successful, it'll finally motivate them.

Cheers!
