New Indiana Jones DVD Set - The Adventure Collection

You knew a new set of DVDs was inevitable...only you probably expected it to come out when INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL was released to DVD. Oh...you can bet that is going to happen, too, but for now...there's a new 4 Disc set that contain the first three films + some new extras and not previously released (even in the 4 disc set from a few years back). Unless you are the heartiest of Indy fans, you may want to hold off for the inevitable set that will include Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

Of course if you are "the heartiest of Indy fans"
you can pre-order yours here!

The real question is, "When is that 4 disc collectors soundtrack set coming out?"

Paramount Announces - Indiana Jones 4

The Return of the Whip and Fedora!

According to boxofficemojo.com, Paramount Pictures has announced that there will be an INDIANA JONES 4 movie...to release May 2008! Spielberg, Lucas, Ford...and maybe Connery? It all sounds good.

It even looks as though composer John Williams has signed onto the project. Sounds good....I think.

Still, is Harrison Ford too old to be the Indy we all know and love? Should John Williams give up the reigns as these type of films don't seem to be his cup 'o tea any longer?
