South Park Attacks George Lucas & Steven Spielberg For Indy Movie
October 10th, 2008


I haven’t seen the Indy movie yet cuz I’m so damn cheap, but people are plenty pissed off about it. This week’s “South Park” episode attacked George Lucas and Steven Spielberg for allegedly “raping Indiana Jones” when they brought him back to the silver screen in “Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull.”

Paramount and its parent company Viacom also produce South Park. So that makes the studio execs all pissed off too.

Harrison Ford Says There May Be Another Indy Movie
October 6th, 2008

Harrison Ford Says There May Be Another Indy MovieHarrison Ford may or may not be smoking crack. He basically just announced that a fifth Indiana Jones movie is potentially on the way. As Ford told the L.A. Times:

“It’s crazy but great,” the 66-year-old Ford said. “George is in think mode right now.”

Let’s hope this is a different think mode then the one that produced Ewoks and Jar-Jar. Someone really should take away George’s toys.

Lost ark
Why not completely geek the hell out by buying this lost ark replica for your desk. You know, to celebrate that guy with the whip still making movies at 70 something. I hear the sequel is already in the works. Indiana Jones and the Lost Dentures. Is he still doing Ally McBeal? Anybody know?

You can also get the Holy Grail to hold your paperclips and the fertility idol will handle your pens.

Indiana Jones Crystal Skull Projector
May 22nd, 2008

Indiana Jones Crystal Skull Projector
This inferior replica of the real thing looks like it had stitches and has had it’s skull elongated in back. Looks like lucite. Not nearly as attractive as the skulls Indy hunts for. It’s pretty crappy. Indy would not approve. It comes with a set of slides featuring famous archaeological sites and scenes from the Indiana Jones films that can be projected on a wall when inserted into the Skull. It will cost you $39.99.

Critics React To Indy’s New Adventure
May 19th, 2008

Indy
The latest adventure, “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,” got a respectful though maybe not glowing reaction on Sunday at the Cannes Film Festival.

Some loved it, some called it slick and enjoyable though formulaic, some said it was not worth the 19-year wait. Ouch!

“They should have left well enough alone,” said J. Sperling Reich, who writes for FilmStew.com. “It really looked like they were going through the motions. It really looked like no one had their heart in it.”

The applause was apparently louder at the outset, though. Fans at the early afternoon showing, cheered and clapped wildly at an announcement that the screening was about to start. Some even hummed the Indiana Jones fanfare as the lights went down. But at the end it wasn’t quite the same enthusiasm.

Conchita Casanovas, of Spain’s RNE radio, said she was “bored to death.”

There were some positive thoughts as well, but from what I can gather, it was mostly otherwise.

Indiana Jones Electronic FX Whip
April 29th, 2008

Indiana Jones Electronic FX Whip
The new Indiana Jones film will hit theaters in less than a month. Now you can get yourself a toy version of Indy’s most famous accessory. The bull whip. “Throw me the idol, I’ll throw you the whip.”

Watch your kid break every damn thing in your house, while he’s pretending to be an archaeologist.

Yes, it’s lame. Not dangerous at all. It’s a three foot soft whip with a plastic handle that plays authentic whip-cracking sound effects as you swing it, and the well-known Indiana Jones theme music. A switch on the handle turns the sounds on and off, and it even features a carrying strap for attaching it to your belt. It will cost you $26.99.

I personally was hoping for something a bit more dangerous.
