How old is Jones supposed to be? Ford was born in '42 and the movie was released in '81. So say Jones was 39 in 1944. Ford is 80 now. So is Jones 80 years old now and does the movie take place in the mid 1980's? [Reply]
There was a somewhat popular theme in post WW2 Sci-Fi involving Nazis on the Moon, by the way. It sounds goofy now but our Nazis did help us get there. [Reply]
"The decision, in some ways, was really easy. I have wanted to do an Indiana Jones game for a long time, and we’ve never had the right fit of partner and idea to make that happen."
(and there is a movie next year)

Ur remains were excavated by British archeologist Leonard Woolley until 1934. The new Indy game will take place in 1937. Will Woolley help Indy in his next adventure? pic.twitter.com/7c9GwrTJg9
I know you can't read much from the Indiana Jones game teaser but but I'm going to anyway. Indy seems to be heading to Rome in 1937 according to the ticket, typewriter and map of the Vatican. Which would place the game after Ark & Temple but before Crusade. pic.twitter.com/KLVMQbzPSl

What? Has he not even watched his own movies? Might as well have Gandalf say this ridiculous line.
Yeah, I thought the same thing... ummm you saw a box(at least the aftermath) evaporate people, you saw a guy rip another guys heart out and he continues to live, you saw a person drink from a cup and instantly grow old and die and then watch your father's wound heal from drinking from another cup... but I don't believe in magic.

Exactly. The whole arc of Raiders (see what I did there) was Indy starts out not believing in religious hocus pocus but by the end of the film it's obvious that he's forced to believe at least in the idea that there is much more out there mysterious and unexplainable...
...buuuuut they have to bring you back to the beginning where Indy doesn't believe in anything...as if he's never learned anything from his awesome adventures...
