An Indiana Jones Tease from Disney

When I say that I’m a big Indiana Jones fan, I mean BIG. Indeed, one of my favorite purchases while in Disney World in recent years was an Indiana Jones shoulder-strap case that has become my favorite computer/book-writing attaché.

So, yes, I’m jazzed to see that Disney, via assorted social media, just teased the next Indiana Jones movie. Disney said, “A new Indiana Jones adventure begins July 29, 2022. Phoebe Waller-Bridge joins the cast alongside Harrison Ford in the fifth installment of the iconic franchise. The inimitable John Williams will also return to score the film.”



Count me in! By the way, I’m a firm believer that the first three Indiana Jones movies – Raiders of the Lost ArkIndiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade – make for the best trilogy in Hollywood history, and the fourth film – Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull – was not as bad as most proclaim. In fact, it was a “pretty good” movie that, with some solid editing, could have been “very good.” 

 

So, here’s to the return of Indy in July 2022, and to hoping that Indiana Jones 5 makes for a strong entry in the Indiana Jones movie franchise.
