My Indiana Jones Crackpot Theory: Entertainment & Culture
think I may owe readers and my editors an apology, given how I handled the story on the making of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull ( “Keys to the Kingdom,” Vanity Fair, February 2008). I was so focused on nailing down the details of this fourth installment in the Indiana Jones series that I may have missed out on the big-picture story: that Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of ...

SPEC: Lucas and Spielberg Planning a New Indy Trilogy after Crystal Skull?
/Film — ... Sure, every fan has probably considered it. But it’s extremely rare when an entertainment journalist issues a long editorial admitting that he may not have dug deep enough for a giant scoop, and Vanity Fair contributing editor Jim Windolf has done just that. Regarding his ...

Will Spielberg and Lucas Continue the Indiana Jones Franchise?
Cinematical — ... ? The one with all the pics, and the quotes from Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Harrison Ford? Well the author of that story, Jim Windolf, is back now apologizing to his editors and the readers for not pressing Spielberg harder on the issue of whether he plans to continue the Indy franchise following this May's ...

Shia the new Indiana Jones?
Oh No They Didn't! — ... Jones movies are a known and lucrative commodity that should be able to make money for years to come, especially if audiences accept a handover to LaBeouf. When asked if there was any merit to the notion that LucasFilm has plans for the Indiana Jones franchise that would take it beyond Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, a company spokeswoman said, in an e-mail message, that she had no comment at this time. I hope it's not true tbh Source

Could Indiana Jones IV Be the Start of a New Trilogy?
Film School Rejects — ... Jim Windolf certainly seems to think so. He’s the lucky SOB who got inside access to the set and key players of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. His excellent article is on newsstands now in the current issue of Vanity Fair. Windolf apparently had a brain fart while writing the piece though as he’s only now realized what may have been the biggest bit of news gained from his interviews and set visit. He’s posted a web exclusive on VanityFair.com apologizing for his sin of omission. ...

Shia Is Hot
ImNotObsessed.com — I don’t really have anything to report on Shia LaBeouf… except for the fact that he is HAWT! Oh ok, I have a little news for you movie buffs. Vanity Fair is claiming that  Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull possibly might kick off a second Indiana Jones trilogy. I am totally up for that. LOVED the first run and wouldn’t mind a little annual guarantee of Shia on the big screen. ONTD ...

Will Harrison Ford Save Us From Shia LaBeouf and a Spinoff of Doom?
Vulture — ... against next month's Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. While this no doubt is wonderful news to moviegoers who've always wanted to see the fictional archaeologist fall asleep in front of the History Channel or get lost in his own home, it might not be such good news for Shia LaBeouf, who plays Jones's son in Skull and who Steven Spielberg and George Lucas are rumored to be grooming to star in a spinoff trilogy once Ford gets too old to handle a whip. So, now, if Skull is well received, Ford will sign up for a sequel and LaBeouf will be relegated to ...
