: : it's a good idea however, this kid can't just be anyone, since it is from the past lines of an indy film. if in indy 4 he was married to marion at the end he could pass this on to his son, who if they wanted to drag it series out they could continue with a son. although i don't think that they should do something like this just to drag out more movies. it would have to keep up to the very high standards of the past indy classics. what do you think?

: : I agree. Plus, the whole Jones experience is more than just the character, it's about the time and world of the 30's and 40's. If you throw in a son then you start having things timelined in the 60s/70s and I for one I'm not going to pay money to watch Indy Jr. looping around with shoulder length hair, bell bottom jeans, and a tie-dye shirt. Give me the nostalgia of the '30s and '40s any day! -MP

AMEN!! Regards. Michaelson
