"Indiana Jones 4 Teaser Trailer Launches On Valentines Day
It looks like we will be celebrating love with Dr. Jones this year. We get wind of the teaser trailer?s release thanks to our friends at comingsoon:

Paramount Pictures and Lucasfilm Ltd. officially announced today that the first teaser trailer for the highly anticipated Indiana Jones adventure Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, directed by Steven Spielberg and starring Harrison Ford in the title role, will debut in theaters across the globe on February 14, 2008.

The trailer will air exclusively on ABC?s ?Good Morning America? that morning between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. Immediately thereafter, the footage will be available at the film?s official site IndianaJones.com, Yahoo! Movies and in motion picture theaters.

There we go! We get to see it first with Regis, with online and theater viewing to follow. I must admit, I am curious to see the teaser for this. We have seen a few pictures here and there, but I think I will have another level of excitement once I get to see Indy back in action. I will be looking for cool location shots in the teaser, from what I have seen in the pictures the locations seem to be pretty sweet and I am hoping for more of them in the teaser. I will also have an eye on the chemistry between Harrison and Shia, I am not thrilled with the inclusion of another sidekick; solid camaraderie will put my mind at ease.

This is pretty good news because Feb 14th ?. is this week! Post Regis we will be on the lookout for the teaser and will be sure to have it up for all of you to enjoy.

I guess its good I never got around to buying the original set.

 

Actually, the original box set has really rare stuff, and great extras already! I got a Best Buy version which came with an extra disc with a rare Raiders featurette, not included in the regular box set.

 

Not sure if those re releases are worth the double dip this time.

 

hopefully there will be a blu ray version coming out too!

 

Considering Paramount's HD only idea didn't work out so well for them...I don't think they have a singly Blu Ray title.

 

Hmmm...so instead of Speeder Bikes in a forest, we have Jeeps in a jungle. http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20182648,00.html

George Lucas says his new 'Indiana Jones' is 'just a movie'
By Scott Bowles, USA TODAY
To hear him talk, you'd think George Lucas would have preferred to call his movie Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull: Don't Get Your Hopes Up.

Lucas, who co-wrote and produced the May 22 film, can sound downright sullen when it comes to his expectations of fan reaction to the year's most highly anticipated movie.

"When you do a movie like this, a sequel that's very, very anticipated, people anticipate ultimately that it's going to be the Second Coming," Lucas says. "And it's not. It's just a movie. Just like the other movies. You probably have fond memories of the other movies. But if you went back and looked at them, they might not hold up the same way your memory holds up."

The remarks appear to be part of a larger strategy to build interest yet temper expectations for the fourth installment of the Indiana Jones franchise. Only one trailer is playing, and when director Steven Spielberg shows up for talk shows, he doesn't bring footage.

Lucas says he learned his lesson about unrealistic expectations when he revived the Star Wars franchise in 1999. "When people approach the new (Indiana Jones), much like they did with Phantom Menace, they have a tendency to be a little harder on it," he says. "You're not going to get a lot of accolades doing a movie like this. All you can do is lose."

Except when it comes to money. Analysts expect it to rake in well more than double its reported budget of $125 million. But Lucas says that doesn't hold much sway for him, Spielberg and Harrison Ford.

"We came back to do (Indy) because we wanted to have fun," he says. "It's not going to make much money for us in the end. We all have some money. ? It would make a lot of money if you weren't rich. But we're not doing it for the money."

It's fan and critic reaction for which the team is bracing, but Lucas says he has quit trying to appeal to everyone. "It was really a blast" to make. "And it turned out fantastic. ? I like to watch it."

Lucas concedes that it will be impossible to water down expectations, even among fellow filmmakers.

The Dark Knight director Christopher Nolan met Lucas at the ShoWest convention this month and says he's impatient to see the competition. "Come on, he's George Lucas," Nolan says. "I felt like I should have kissed the ring."

 

i am so freakin excited to see this movie... i can't believe Lucas is playin it down... modesty or his own disappointment at the outcome? i hope the former...
