I agree. Besides, "this bickering is pointless" (grin)

I have to agree with James on this one. The one thing I can't understand is why fans don't think that the guy's whose minds were creative enough to bring us the series in the first place will be unable to deliver an entertaining new installment. To many on this forum, Temple of Doom is unwatchable. Yet to others, it's their favorite of the three. It is doubtful the fans would be more split on a new movie than with Temple. I know that this is a discussion forum and that talking about "what if's" is part of the fun, but let's be frank. A fourth Indy aint gonna happen without Harrison. Spielberg has said so. A better topic would be "How are they gonna make the new one interesting". Cheers

Shawn, you're an intelligent poster around here who seems very creative- and the best you can come up with for an Indy 4 storyline is something that mines Raiders? I'm sick of reading all of the fan ideas for Indy 4 that insist we have to have revisit Raiders. Talk about nostalgic longings. The characters in the Indy films were never intended to have any big story arcs that would carry over the series. Quit trying to turn this into Star Wars.
