I had an Indiana Jones Choose Your Own Adventure book in which he fought Dracula, and I've always been secretly hoping they'd do a film of that.

Indiana Jones and the Chariots of the Gods?

I haven't read the whole thread, but I might be going to see the "Adaptation" that a bunch of teens did over 6 years in the 80s, a scene by scene remake of Raiders of the Lost Ark.

I am downloading the original now though because I barely remember it!

Hmmm... I wondered why I hadn't posted on this thread yet. Anyway, Raiders means more to me than all the Star Wars movies combined.

Anyone else remember that script that was kicking around the net with Indiana Jones going after Noah's Ark in the early Cold War? Evil Soviets, etc.

chris i'm going to that on friday for sure (i work at the place showing it actually)

Okay, so based on that link Kingfish provided, this is Indiana Jones and the Casting of "Rebel Without a Cause".

Fuck, those pictures are sad looking.

I'm going Saturday. Cause I have a thing Friday.

It sold out! I can't believe I sat through Raiders this morning for NOTHING. Sheesh.

apparently they're filming in new haven

Princeton, Hawaii, and either Arizona/New Mexico are the only other American locations I remember hearing about. They shoot in England and...some place in E. Europe I believe.

Filming Locations from IMDB

Deming, New Mexico, USA
Hamakua Coast, Hawaii, USA

Indianapolis Jones and the Last 500

I never knew ih worked at AFA!

That Adaptation looks like a cute idea, for about 10 minutes.

Random press conference hoohah:

The action star, who first introduced the fedora-wearing, bullwhip-cracking Indiana Jones in the 1981 classic "Raiders of the Lost Ark," is actually doing many of his own stunts in the latest film.

"He's doing them, he just has a few more ice packs and a few more massages," Kennedy said.

"And a lot of Celebrex," producer Frank Marshall added.

...

The film's biggest action sequences are being filmed in Hawaii. Marshall compared one scene to the thrilling, white-knuckled truck chase in the desert in "Raiders."

"It's that level," he said.

what is it about this character, and this star? people will give ford as indy a free pass forever. some special kind of feeling attaches to indiana jones. here is something, one thinks, that is on a higher plane, something that is in its own category. here is old-fashioned adventure and thrills to remind us of our better nature - etc etc. - all this for a rehash of every radio adventure drama ever! how do they do it?

charisma

harrison ford as indy in raiders is like the definition of an iconic performance. I like how we go from smart, fairly well-prepared but overly trusting Indy in the beginning sequence to daniel boone seat-of-the-pants I'm Going To Chase That Truck Indy, it's like karen allen turns off his brain. That would probably happen to me too. Also explains why jeff bridges talks like that in starman.
