Well, actually the plot is a closely guarded secret at this point, and I am glad.
Sean Connery will be in it as Indiana's Father again and the movie is being set in the 1950's to account for Harrison's aged real life look which cannot be entirely hidden on camera.
I believe they are having the women of his life make cameo's and such, though Karen Allen is the only one that I'd personally like to see in it as Spielberg's wife (Kate Capshaw) just annoys the hell out of me!:)
Anyway, my prediction is this: (and this is entirely me guessing, but I am putting it down here now as proof that I said it before the plot was learned)
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis (yes, like the original PC game that came out years ago)
Why do I predict this? Because Atlantis as a real location still fascinates people around the world today, in fact I was watching Discovery Channel the other night about people that are currently looking for it and clues they have found and such. I mean, let's face it, he's found the most prized Biblical Artifacts already, it's time for him to find something bigger.:)
I guess in the end only time will tell but I thought that I would give you that tidbit at the top about who will be who and why the movie is being set in the 1950's.
P.S.
For all your Indiana Jones Fans out there, in case you missed it (as I am sure most have) in the The Temple of Doom, when Harrison jumps out of the hotel at the beginning with Kate Capshaw and they fall into the car and drive past the entrance to the club that they just ran from, well, the big hidden George Lucas "Easter Egg" is the club is named "Club Obi Wan" (from Star Wars yet had an oriental ring to it):)
Cheers!
In an attempt to boost consumer confidence in it's products, Microsoft Corporation has announced today that it is going forward with its plan to deploy Microsoft Bob Enterprise v2.53. While it is true that the initial release of Microsoft Bob was a failure, Microsoft has updated the technology behind Bob to give you the latest and greatest capabilities from a seemingly useless product and best of all, now it can be useless Enterprise Wide!:)
Yep, instead of having kids out on the streets dealing drugs and comitting crimes, we can teach them how to sit in the comfort of their own homes and commit bigger crimes!:)
Make money? Selling what? Dust? Bones of animals and people that didn't have any food?
Let's be serious, these people have about as much use for the Internet as a Jew would have for a neo-nazi rally flyer.
Let's start with fundamentals like food, water, clothing, shelter and for God's sake, BIRTH CONTROL!
Just a thought:)
You know what I can't stand about posts like yours? Is the incredibly lame mockery of an attempt to 'creat' a racial class.
I am an American, end of story. My ancestors might have descended from somewhere else, but then again most of us do. What tf is this "African-American" crap? I say if you are African, get on the boat and get moving and if you're American sit down and shut your pie hole.
We in America don't owe anyone anything because of slavery that happened 300 years ago. Gimme a break and let it go already. I mean, the upside is if it wasn't for all that slavery they'd have all lived and died in some God forsaken country in Africa and would never have made it to the U.S. let alone any of their descendents.
Just my 2 cents on an issue that has been beaten to death over the last 300 years and how a particular race keeps itself in the spotlight by pointing out how they are different from everyone else and then gets mad and cries 'racism' when they are treated differently *boggle*.
I don't know why everyone gets thier panties in a bunch over a dupe story. I mean, if those that complained put half as much effort into finding some good content and submitting information this would be a lot better page than it is.
Well Aliencow, how about you thrall us all with your acumen then. ..I'm all ears.
I see this listed as a 'Comment' section, and anything or everything I said is 'my comments' on the subject at hand.
If you don't like what other people post, I see a few alternatives for you:
1. Stop reading slashdot.org
2. Stop reading the user comments
3. Stop whining when someone wants to chip in 2 cents
Maybe some people don't read or reply to every story that gets posted all day long, and while I am in the window of time that I can read and post I am taking the opportunity to post some of my thoughts and like to hear what others have to say regarding any given issue.
You have a few issues of your own to work out, get some Prozac and relax, life is too short to be so hostile over what amounts to absolutely NOTHING...
...some support being given to the Linux community. I am not going to debate the Windows vs. Linux issue, however, I do want to say that my personal feeling is that Linux could easily overpower the Windows domination if there were just more variations of games and applications available.
Unfortunately some of the more prominent applications that people use are Microsoft applications (i.e. ms word, excel, outlook, etc) and will not likely see the light of day for any Linux porting since this would only contribute to the Windows demise.
Will be very interesting to see what the future holds and how the market might react/shift to alternatives such as Linux or even BSD.
...to the consumer. The Bell system for all its splendor has been sticking it to us for YEARS. I mean, take touch tone service. For years they charged an additional 'fee' for this service, when in all actuality it was cheaper for them to implement and maintain.
Also, the Bell system invented DSL back in the last 70's but didn't pursue it because of their own short-sightedness. Then it comes to pass that when the Internet boom took off and the Bell companies were left out in the cold, suddenly they wanted to 'charge' fees each time someone dialed-up an ISP phone number. Luckily the count system told the Bells to suck it. The Bell system claimed it was putting more burden on their system, which might very well be the case, however, they also stuck it to the consumer for YEARS with this 'unlimited local calls' for one rate when they had done studies way back in the day to determine that the average customer makes/receives 6 calls a day with the average call being 4.2 minutes. Now that customers are using MORE of their unlimited service the phone company is crying the blues...
...are really important IMHO. Studying the carbon dioxide levels of any system is important because with the talks about someday inhabiting other planets like Mars, one of our first objectives would be getting greenhouse gases into the planet's atmosphere and then waiting many years for the planet to warm up enough to be inhabitable, both from a temperature standpoint and melting the ice caps at the poles (speaking of Mars of course).
I am glad to see some useful studies being done. Once a planet warms up enough with green house gases, we can get some plant life on the planet to assist in the creation of oxygen through this same cycle and eventually make a planet liveable. Though it's not something we'll see in our lifetimes, studies such as these benefit the species as a whole in the long run (i.e. big picture of time).
We live in a day and age when people are lazy as hell and if you were to create something easier more people would participate, however, I wouldn't say that this would 'cure' anything.
The basis of how effective a cure would be can only be measured by how drastic the measure taken against said ailment.
...support terrorism, but then again so does free beatheable air that we breathe everday.
I mean, you could almost argue that most things could, in some sense or fashion 'support terrorism'.
Let's face it, there is no way to possibly live in peace around the world. I mean, who would want to? Think of how incredibly boring life would be if there was absolutely nothing happening anywhere. BORING! I mean, think about a visit to the doctor's office and how it is in the waiting room, noone talking, no real noise, just sitting there waiting quietly. People do it because they have to and you think people in this world would actually live their lives that way? It just simply won't happen, as much as we might like it to.
Get used to how things are, because it's only going to get worse...:(
...with these kinds of emerging technologies coming into service that the last frontier of protected communciations is telepathy, and since the last time I checked this wasn't a very prominent form of communication, it's safe to assume that every last single thing we say or do anywhere is monitored/recorded.:(
...spend some money feeding the hungry and building homes for the homeless or something useful with their time? Maybe they should join venture with IBM to come up with MAC OS Warp 11, or some other failed from the start venture...
Or maybe they can get some moron on the TV telling me how they can't make a book of photo's for their little girl....erm, wait, we've seen that jackass already, nevermind...
...you can look forward to your name being recorded with the FBI when you visit the local library to check this book out along with a copy of 'the catcher in the rye'

Yeah, we sure have been, and as far as I can see the horse is still dead, so STOP beating it!!!
Yeah, this is like worse than any soap opera I ever seen on television...
Maybe FOX or NBC should snap up the rights to this new reality tv show potential...
This just in...

Outstanding, now I can find out 20 years from now how many bowel movements I had back in 1997 (sigh)
Guess this will bring an all new meaning to the phrase:
"Behold! The power of cheese."

Sitting back and pointing fingers is easy to do.
This sounds pretty neat, but is it really necessary? I mean, talking into your wrist like your 007 or something.
I guess the next step is to have a badge on our left breast that we hit and say "beam me up!"
"Impressive! Most impressive!"

I am sure if you take the time visit your local rancher, he'll have something around his property to satisfy your urges. tksinfoyoroktksbye.
Drive home safely!
Bummer...
what a bloated piece of crap webpages would have become, they might have abandoned the idea...
Or maybe they can get some moron on the TV telling me how they can't make a book of photo's for their little girl....erm, wait, we've seen that jackass already, nevermind...
