: Anybody check out the new movie "mummy returns". i thought it was ok, just because anything faintly related to archaeology is a must-see for me. but i was disappointed that in the scene when the O'Connell's first enter their house, Steven Sommers (director) had frazier dressed like our beloved Indy: Fedora, Jacket, even a scarf like Indy wore in Young Indy Adv.:Mystery of the Blues (although I doubt that was intentional. Not a bad movie on the whole, but I wish they had left a true film alone and not tried to steal it's thunder. just venting...

: by the way, I know this gets brought up alot, but does anybody know where I can find a fairly inexpensive MkVII bag? I don't really want to spend in the upwards of forty and fifty dollars for it; not because i don't think it's worth that, but because I won'tt to actually use it, for digs and the like. Thanks again!

Those were just his dress clothes shown in only one scene- how is this a rip-off? Believe it or not, a lot of people wore that kind of clothing in the 30's-40's, the style wasn't invented in 1981.
