Hey folks, Harry here... Seems like we've got a status on where Indy 4 is... It's up to Paramount. Well that could be more of a hassle than you can imagine. Trying to make a deal with George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and Harrison Ford on an Indiana Jones movie, and do it in such a way that the studio is still allowed to make a profit... well, it is tough. Indy 4 would most likely mean Harrison Ford's largest pay day yet. Then George and Steven's costly producing and directing deals... The back end on the film would look ugly as hell, then of course you have the whole issue of how expensive the movie itself would be... Well... This is where the film is... number crunching... How much is too much and how much is just right? Sure everyone involved knows that folks like you and me want to see this teaming... but again... that's the problem. THEY KNOW... THEY ALL KNOW. However, as we go into Junket Week on A.I., let me put out there for those attending... find out who wrote the current script that they are behind making... What Spielberg is doing after MINORITY REPORT... oh, and how the hell is A.I.? Here ya go....
Hi Harry,
I am sure you have read this hundreds of times, but according to the Sydney Morning Herald (June 12), Steven Spielberg mentions his plans for Indiana Jones 4 in an interview printed in Starlog's 25th anniversary edition.
"We are all ready and waiting for Paramount," Spielberg said in reference to the studio behind the franchise. By "all" Spielberg meant the key players in the franchise: himself, George Lucas and Harrison Ford.
