Indiana Jones 4 is just days away from beginning principal photography and I think it's time to discussed some ideas on how to cover the production and board activities that can be created leading up to the film's release. Here's some of my ideas.

Indiana Jones.com Updates Discussion Thread - A thread devoted to discussing all updates, articles, videos and any information regarding the production of the new film released through the official website or Starwars.com.

Photo Thread - Not sure if this should be two separate threads. One thread for photos officially released by LucasFilm/Paramount and another thread for unofficial, paparazzi, spy, and spoiler photos.

Spoiler Thread - A thread where spoilers can be discussed openly.

Cast and Crew Thread - A thread listing the cast and crew of the new film. Will be continually updated as information becomes available.

A Weekly Re-Cap of the Previous Week of Production

New Banner Contest

Fan Art Contest

Fan Video Contest

If you have any ideas or suggestions or would want to be involved please let me know.

Update: Here's a list of what will be considered Spoilers and Non-Spoilers.

Non-Spoilers
Anything released on Indianajones.com, Starwars.com, Star Wars Insider and/or any other LucasFilm/Paramount website/publication.
Press Releases.
Articles from Magazines and Newspapers. (Entertainment Weekly, Time, New Haven Register, USA Today, AP, Reuters, etc.)
TV reports, interviews, behind the scene footage from legitimate news sources. (ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, etc.)
Reports from Entertainment News Shows (Entertainment Tonight, Access Hollywood, Extra, Inside Edition, etc.)

Spoilers
Uncited sources.
Rumors or unconfirmed reports.
Spy Photos and Videos
Script Leaked Online
Paparazzi Photos
Official Books, Toys, and Tie-In Products Released Before The Film
Track Titles from the Soundtrack


If you have any questions are if you are unsure about something you plan to post please PM me and I'll be happy to help.

I'd say just have one thread for all photos official and unofficial and if you need any help Gobi-1 just ask I'll be happy to help.

Official photos will probably appear in the "Indiana Jones.com Updates Discussion Thread" too.

If you're including spy shots, my thought would be to keep them separate (spoilers!) from the officially release ones (which are non-spoilers by default).

Have a word with Sape & any of the other mods who've been through modding the prequel forums. They'll help you sort out what you do and don't need (with the slight difference that you're running both spoiler and non-spoiler threads in the one forum).

I've already have a discussion going on about this in the Mod Squad. Must be careful when it comes to spy and spoilerish photos.

I think that the photo thread should be entirely unspoiled, and the spoiler photos can go to the spoiler thread. It's only fair, since a lot of the activity in the spoiler thread will probably centre on new spoiler images anyway, if my memory of RotS serves correctly.

I think if there's going to be a photo thread then it would be ok to have both a spoiler & spoiler-free threads.

Is there a specific thread where we can speculate on the plot? If so, which one? Sorry, been a while.

So, what with the first solid spoilers beginning to filter through, I feel I must ask the question... when does this split into 4SA and 4NS? tongue

We don't have enough traffic here to warrant spoiler and spoiler free boards.

Ahh. Still, I bet after the first teaser comes out around December, board activity will slowly start to skyrocket, and we'll be seeing a lot of "Dec 07" users.

That's what I'm hoping for as well.
