Indiana Jones coming to DVD in November
DaSpudMan writes "The "Indiana Jones" trilogy, one of the most requested film series for the DVD format, is finally slated for worldwide release Nov. 4 as "The Adventures of Indiana Jones -- The Complete DVD Movie Collection," a box set that will include a fourth disc specifically dedicated to bonus materials."
This trilogy was one of my all time favorites, I can't even begin to count the number of times I've seen the Temple of Doom (my favorite of the three).
Of course, they arent replacing the Nazi's with ewoks, and the guns with walkie talkies, right?
This is my sig. Its pathetic.
Now we can have that song in our heads for a straight 4 hours.
Bum ba dum-dum! Bum ba dum!

Spielberg isn't replacing Indy's whip with a cellphone.
(Moderated, -1, Hahaha! Very Funny Dr. Jones!)
Small potatoes make the steak look bigger.
Fellow P2P users reply: Dr. Jones. Again we see there is nothing you can possess which I cannot take away.
People buy things because they are worth paying for now? Has Consumerism gone MAD!?
Note that it is a trilogy, yet it contains 4 disks. Clearly they intended movie #2 to be removed & discarded.
Let's hope that Lucas' stickler for quality attitude makes this set a good one.
Stickler for quality? Lucas? You have SEEN the new Star Wars movies, right?
End of lesson. You may press the button.

Dear Mr and Mrs Jones,
I understand that in order to get to school this morning Indiana leapt from the branches of a tree on to the roof of a passing vehicle, crawled the length of this vehicle (nearly falling off at least four times as he avoided having his head knocked off by low bridges), dangled precariously over the side hanging on by the fingertips of one hand while he scratched his knee with the other and then leapt fearlessly through a small side window, receiving not a single scratch in spite of the thousands of razor sharp pieces into which the glass shattered.
Would you please instruct your son that he must be like all the other children, and use the school bus stop.

A manager has placed an ad for a secretary. A blonde, a redhead and a brunette show up for the interview.
..."
..."
The brunette enters first, the interview begins with the usual where, how, how much etc. In the end the manager says: ".. and one last question. How many T's are there in INDIANA JONES?".
The brunette takes a moment to think and replies:
".. there are not T's
"Precisely replies the manager, that was the answer I was expected. Very well, we will contact you shortly."
It's the redhead's turn, the interview begins with the usual where, how, how much etc. In the end the manager says:
".. and one last question. How many T's are there in INDIANA JONES?".
The redhead takes a moment to think and replies:
".. there are not T's
"Precisely replies the manager, that was the answer I was expected. Very well, we will contact you shortly."
Finally the blonde enters, the interview begins with the usual where, how, how much etc. In the end the manager asks:
".. and one last question. How many T's are there in INDIANA JONES?".
The blonde is thinking hard, going into deep analytical thought and asks for a calculator,
The clickety clicks begin, she gives it some more thought and finally replies:
".. there are 32 T's!"
The manager says that he wasn't expecting that answer. He asks her, however, how she had arrived to that conclusion and if she had misinterpreted the question. Her reply left him speechless:
Listen
Who said anything about paying for it? The good thing about this piece of news is that we'll *finally* get DVD-quality DivX rips of the movies on Kazaa.
Damnit, and I wanted to see the swordsman swing first...

These movies have been played to death on TNT and other cable channels. Maybe it's just me, but seeing a good movie with banner ads at the bottom and commercials every 7 minutes destroys the mystique.
word.
It's set in the 1950's.
The first three were set in the 1940s. Setting this new one in the 1950s gives them an excuse for Indy (Harrison Ford) looking so old.

Hell, they'd sell 'em faster than they could make them if they cut out the advertising, cut prices, and submitted a story to Slashdot.
it takes some time to cram all those Ewoks into nazi uniforms. I'm sure the end result will be worth the effort.
Rumor has it that John Williams uses "lyrics" when composing, which is how he comes up with such... ummm... lyrical melodies, before they are handed off to a team of people to orchestrate it.
Ready? Sing along to the main theme.

Seriously. I can't find anything to prove that's what he used, but I did hear it from a friend who heard it from a friend. It's nothing like Bill Murray's interpretation of the Star Wars theme of course.
I wonder what "words" he used for his other themes?

"That's a good thing, though - it shows that there isn't a film to end all films. The Matrix and LOTR may be popular now, but give Hollwood another 20 years, and who knows what we'll be watching?"
I do. Dude, I Still Don't Know Where My Car Is, I Still Know What Your Boobs Did in the Summer of 2013, American Pie XII: Filling Time, Friday the 13th Part XXI, Girls Gone Wild the Movie 7...
