: FYI: Ford's scenes remain untouched. I thought the movie was
: fantastic. Seeing it on the big screen was a revelation. For the
: most part, the added scenes helped make the movie more
: coherent. As many of you know, besides the Harrison ford tie in,
: this is Indy related in that the movie originally involved George
: Lucas as the director. It was partly his brainstorm. Coppola went
: ahead and made it when George was in the middle of Star Wars.
: George was said to have been upset with his old friend for a
: while after that. Apocalypse Now was partially written by John
: Milius, friend of George, Francis, and Steven Spielberg. In my
: opinion his scripts have always had a certain flair about them
: (he ain't a bad director either). Anyway, as I was watching the
: movie, I couldn't help but think that he could write a fantastic Indy
: script if he were interested. It would be gritty and with "grip". What
: do you guys think. Also, I don't mean to be crabby, but this is by
: far the best thing out this summer, probably all year. Go see it if
: you have the chance. Cheers
