Disney has just announced that Harrison Ford will be reprising his iconic role as Indiana Jones in the fifth installment in the series with Steven Spielberg returning to the director’s chair. Pic will hit screens on July 19, 2019. Spielberg directed the previous four pics and this one has yet to be titled. Franchise vets Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall will produce.

“Indiana Jones is one of the greatest heroes in cinematic history, and we can’t wait to bring him back to the screen in 2019,” said Alan Horn, Chairman, The Walt Disney Studios in a statement. “It’s rare to have such a perfect combination of director, producers, actor and role, and we couldn’t be more excited to embark on this adventure with Harrison and Steven.”

Famed archaeologist and explorer Indiana Jones was introduced in 1981’s Raiders of the Lost Ark – one of AFI’s 100 Greatest American Films of All Time – and later thrilled audiences in 1984’s Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, 1989’s Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. All together, the four titles grossed nearly $2 billion at the global box office. Among the top Memorial Day openers, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has the second highest four-day take with $126.9M behind Disney’s Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End which debuted to $139.8M.

The Nazi's didn't have the correct staff height because the medallion had information on both sides, while only one side was burned into Toht's hand.

They were digging in the wrong place and wouldn't have found the Ark if Indy's team hadn't found it first.

Only true if you accept that Marion still fights off the Nazis in Nepal. If Indy isn't in the film, he isn't there to help her, she is dead and Toht has the real medallion instead of the imprint from his hand and they dig in the correct location.

Ah, good point. I forgot about that scene.

Holy crap, I guess it's true.

Damn, Indy just caused all kinds of problems for Marion.

Raiders, Last Crusade................Crystal Skull (watchable)..........Temple of Doom (absolute crap).

My vote too.

How are they going to make an action movie with their star in his mid-70's?

IMO, Disney should follow the Young Indiana Jones model and have Harrison Ford reminisce about a story from his youth, which would introduce the new actor playing Indy.

But, America wouldn't have it in their secret inventory without Indy. Damn bureaucrats, have no idea what they have.

That would work. You can go back to his early days without any restraints.

Pick the best 25 year old unknown actor in the world. Do some stunts. Put Nazi's in there. Basic reboot but still have Harrison. Sound familiar?

I even took it to a major, successful Hollywood screenwriter who loved it and has access to Pratt. The problem is that Indy is George Lucas and Steven Spielberg's "baby" and they want nothing to do with outside ideas or writers.

I'll be curious to see what they do with a 76 year old Harrison Ford.

Yes, certainly THAT was the problem. Your prequel was really probably totally awesome.

No it didn't. You just don't know the movie business.

What does one have to do with the other? It's an opinion anyway, although one shared by most who liked the other movies.

That's always been his main contribution for me.

No Indy and the Nazi's realize that the arc fried their first set of researchers. They send out a new set of researchers and pick it up. Eventually they figure out how to weaponize it.

Indy got the arc into American hands so it could be safely tucked away from ol' Adolf.

Having an opinion is fine. I didn't think it "sucked", he disagreed.

But the comment I made about not knowing the movie business had nothing to do with opinion and everything to do with the "why" of "Why isn't Hollywood producing original films?".

Once again, "Hollywood" IS producing original films with original ideas but those movies tend to be smaller in budget, generally $25 million or less (Sicario was $30 but you get the idea).

I will give Hollywood credit for a new idea of a movie in 10 Cloverfield Lane. I mean it had acting through 90% of it and it was awesome acting especially the portrayal of John Goodman character. They really did a convincing job that was John Goodman acting as a deranged survivalist.

$15 million dollar budget, which again, proves the point...
