    Indiana Jones to Return — and Other Golden Globe News

    Indiana Jones 

    Indiana Jones to Return — and Other Golden Globe News 

    At the end of a wild night of partying and celebrating for the 2002 Golden Globes, I had the rare opportunity of talking with Steven Spielberg, Kate Capshaw and Harrison Ford. They were sitting together in a small booth in the basement of Trader Vic's at the Beverly Hilton Hotel at the combined party thrown by DreamWorks, USA Films and Universal Pictures. 

    This threesome is pretty much it in Hollywood. After all, between Spielberg and Ford they've made some of the highest grossing and best loved films of all time. Capshaw, who's Mrs. Spielberg, co-starred with Ford in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. 

    So what's the story, I wanted to know — with this trio finally in one place, and relaxed enough to talk, will we ever see Indiana Jones 4? 

    "Yes," they all said, and confirmed that once Spielberg films Catch Me If You Can with Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks, IJ4 will be his priority. 

    "We have a title, but we're not ready to announce it," Spielberg said. "I will give you one clue, though. Kate is in it." I asked if he meant that Capshaw's character would appear via flashbacks, and he replied: "No. She'll be in the present." 

    Ford, who received the Lifetime Achievement Award, said he's ready to take on this last chapter. "It was always about getting the right script, and now we have it," he said. 

    Harrison gave quite a nice speech last night. I asked him if he'd been nervous about giving it. "For a couple of days leading up to it I was, then I thought What the hell, here I am. And I wasn't nervous at all." 

    Spielberg, by the way, is finishing up the editing on Minority Report with Tom Cruise. And he told me that his long aborning plan to make Arthur Golden's novel, Memoirs of a Geisha, has finally ended. "I'm not going to do it," he confirmed. "It's over."

    Golden can't be happy about that, but at least the decision is made and the book is available for option again. 

    The Indy Jones trio wasn't the only big news from Golden Globe night. And what a night it was. From the ceremony itself to the parties that follow, this evening is so much different than the Oscars. The real star is Merv Griffin, who owns the Beverly Hilton Hotel, because the entire proceedings take place in this one building. It's like running a triathlon to make it from beginning to end. 

    COOL!!!

    I was going to start a separate thread, but I won't.

    Did anyone watch the Golden Globes? Either Harrison Ford was extremely nervous or extremely drugged up because the guy sounded horrible.

    one of my very best friends is an aspiring screenwriter. the first script he wrote was an Indy 4 script.

    I know, for a fact, that his script was read by spielberg's personal assistant/co-producer bonnie curtis [she went to the same university as my friend and I], and it was probably read by THE MAN himself.

    it won't be my friends' script they're producing, but I thought that might be of interest for any Indy fans.

    Indiana Jones and the Wheel Chair of Death...

    Indiana Jones....So Very Tired...(take off from the Simpsons)

    Indiana Jones and the Magical Hip Replacement



    But it should be a pretty good movie.

    Indiana Jones and the Malox Moment

    Actually, didn't Indiana Jones get eternal life in Last Crusade when he drank out of the Holy Grail? If that's the case, are we headed for another movie like the third part of A.I. (everyone dead but Indy?).

    I'm not too thrilled really - sometimes a good thing should be left alone. Just look what Lucas is doing to Star Wars.

    The new trilogy may not equal the grandeur of the original, but I like most "Star Wars fans" are looking forward to the completion of the new trilogy...

    ...also I am happy to see a 4th movie series for "Indiana..", but gosh it's been awhile since last crusade, no? They should have done this long time ago.

    I'm excited. Harrison Ford may be older, but Indy can still kick ass. They'd better hurry, though.

    It'll be

    Indiana Jones and the Nursing Home of Death

    or

    Indiana Jones and the Crusade for Lower Prescription Drug Costs.

    Nope. Part of the cost of receiving eternal life was to stay within the bounds of the temple. If anyone who drank from the Cup of Christ crossed the Great Seal, they would cease to be in "God Mode" (just a little Doom humor). Therefore, Indy and his father were rendered mortal.

    Oh yeah... to add my own Indy IV titles:

    Indiana Jones and the Viagara Incident
    Indiana Jones and the Dentures of Doom
    Indiana Jones and the Search for the Missing Matlock Episodes
