George Lucas hints at “Indy 5″

(Posted by David S. Cohen)

London’s TimesOnline, burying its lead in a long, unrevealing puff piece on George Lucas in conjunction with the upcoming release of the new Star Wars: Clone Wars animated movie, puts this near the bottom of the story:

“Really, though, it was a challenge getting the story together and getting everybody to agree on it. Indiana Jones only becomes complicated when you have another two people saying I want it this way’ and I want it that way’, whereas, when I first did Jones, I just said, We’ll do it this way’ and that was much easier. But now I have to accommodate everybody, because they are all big, successful guys, too, so it’s a little hard on a practical level.

“If I can come up with another idea that they like, we’ll do another. Really, with the last one, Steven wasn’t that enthusiastic. I was trying to persuade him. But now Steve is more amenable to doing another one. Yet we still have the issues about the direction we’d like to take. I’m in the future; Steven’s in the past. He’s trying to drag it back to the way they were, I’m trying viagra bestellen to push it to a whole different place. So, still we have a sort of tension. This recent one came out of that. It’s kind of a hybrid of our own two ideas, so we’ll see where we are able to take the next one.”

Ya gotta hand it to George. He’s the only guy in the business who can get away with giving an interview to a major newspaper implying 1) Spielberg succeeded with Raiders by taking orders from him; and 2) Spielberg is a nostalgic stick-in-the-mud whom he cajoled into doing another Indiana Jones picture and accepting his forward-thinking ideas.
