,,what time period should it be set in? Should it remain in the 50s or move on to the 60s?
EDIT: Meant to say 5 in the header, fixed.

Probably during the Cold War. He could battle Russians, and deal with Nuclear Bombs, that would be fun.

Indy teaming up with adult Short Round in a race against the Japanese in 1945 to claim a mystical artifact in China.

No more Indiana Jones films. There's really nowhere else you can go with the mythology or the character. Just let it rest now seeing as Kingdom of the Crystal Skull kind of tainted the trilogy now.

I'd really like to see if they could pull a Star Trek VI to give him a more dignified send-off. Because really, Indy right now is in the same place Star Trek was after The Final Frontier.

So it did get corrected to Indy 5? Here I was blissfully content to completely not acknowledge Temple of Doom's existence.

Let's put it in the same period as Crystal Skull, but with no kid, he partners with Rhys Davies to find the true cross or lance of longenus and we get crusader lore.

base it a few years after the last one, but no more aliens/inter-dimensional beings.
take it too far and indy wouldnt work right, fair enough the series has moments that arnt believeable but if he appears to old to be doing it then he'd retire from tomb raiding and stick to teaching.( considering every tomb he enters has massive booby traps.)
they could always take him back to egypt and have him uncover a massive stone ring that enables you to travel from one planet to another

Thinking about it more... to hell with it, computer animated film with Ford voicing Indy in a movie version of Fate of Atlantis.

Also, at least keep indy married, and dont go the predictable route of having his wife die or get killed. I'd like to see an action hero who gets married and STAYS married for a change (i'm talking franchises here, stuff like true lies doesnt count since that was a stand-alone film).

What about Brendon Fraser's character in the Mummy trilogy? Sure, they replaced Rachel Weisz in the third one but it was still meant to be the same character.

Without giving her supernatural powers...

Should be set in the 1950's with Indy looking for Noah's Ark.

Well he wasn't actually married to her in the first movie. And technically Brendan Fraser wasn't the hero in the third one anymore, he was the sidekick. I know Fraser got top billing, but the movie was about his son.

The '50s is a decent time period, although I think the Red Scare element in 4 (the Scrubs janitor treating Indy like crap in the interrogation) was the thing I hated most about that movie. Ever since I read IJ&THE FATE OF ATLANTIS, I've wanted a movie that expands on that. Mix in some atomic stuff and that could be fairly neat. Unles Lucas develops the story. Then it'd probably stink.

I still half expect Lucas to go back into the Indy vs Swordsman scene and CGI the swordsman pulling out a gun before Indy shoots him
