The eagerly awaiting new Indiana Jones movie won't be released for another two years, because producer George Lucas isn't happy with the script. Indiana Jones 4 has been in the works for a number of years but looked likely to hit screens next year after Lucas recruited star Harrison Ford and original director Steven Spielberg for the project, and hired Frank Darabont to write a screenplay. But Lucas has sent the Shawshank Redemption writer back to the drawing board. A studio source reveals, "Indiana Jones 4 was meant to start shooting this summer but won't now be coming out until 2006. Even though Harrison and director Steven Spielberg were happy with the screenplay, Lucas still doesn't like the final act and wants a faster pace and more action."
And I like this Rotten Tomatoes consensus on
I, Robot
:
Baring only the slightest resemblance to Isaac Asimov's short stories, I, Robot is a summer blockbuster that manages to make the audience think, if only for a little bit.
Like Lucas would know a decent script.
Ioan talks about the Fantastic Four movie:
Tonally, the movie is, according to Arad, a bittersweet comedy, something Gruffudd was keen to confirm. "There's quite a bit of comedy in this and there's that romance between Reed and Sue Storm. And there are four of us, so we're all relying on each other. I have no idea where the script is going to go, but there's certainly plenty of action and us getting a chance to use our superpowers. It's going to be interesting because there are so many fans out there of the original and what they do and I hope they try to remain true to the comic."
Indeed, it seems it shall, right down to the costumes. "Yes, it's going to be a traditional, Spandex, blue Lycra suit with black leather boots. So I'm looking forward to that," laughs Gruffudd. And will he be sporting Reed Richards' traditional graying temples? " I think the idea will be that once they're exposed to the radiation up in space that turns them into the Fantastic Four, as a result of that I'll start to have the greying hair. But I think it'll be subtler than it is in the comic books. More dignified, like George Clooney!"

He probably wanted to change the plot to something with Nazis stealing the secret of metaclorians.
Ioan Gruffud is going to be macking on Jessica Alba.
I feel queasy.
Midichlorians, fool.
Well I guessed at the spelling and Google suggested metaclorians. But then midichlorians gives more matches. Obviously, Google is employing a Sith.
Like Lucas would know a decent script.
He may. He just can't write one himself.

And it's just coincidence he never noticed his stank?

Sometimes artists can't judge their own work.
Jim Morrison always thought his poetry was much better than his singing or his lyrics. He was very wrong, he wrote horrible poetry.
