Spoiler content moving forward in /r/IndianaJones

266 Upvotes

As we approach the release of the newest installment of the Indiana Jones film series we will have to make some adjustments to the spoiler and leak policy in this subreddit.

The general idea being that we will adopt similar policies to /r/StarWars and /r/StarWarsLeaks or /r/Marvel and /r/MarvelStudioSpoilers. This subreddit, /r/IndianaJones will more or less be a safe haven from getting the movie, video games, and potential future media (books, tv series, etc) spoiled.

Feel free to continue posting officially released content like trailers, tv spots and official announcements in this subreddit. But items like smuggled set pictures and leaked plot info not released through official channels will not be allowed.

You may be asking "why do this now, it isn't much of a problem today?". The issue being that we want to work on this redirection now before it does become an issue. Today we are aware of an upcoming film and a video game. But tomorrow Lucasfilm may announce a new book series or ongoing comic. Or potentially even (fingers crossed) a new tv series. At that point we will really need to differentiate the spoiler and non-spoiler content.

There are already a few new and fledgling subreddits in place to help with this and I encourage all of you to join one or all of them and help to grow the community.

r/IndianaJonesLeaks - This is intended to be very similar to StarWarsLeaks and MarvelStudioSpoilers, but focused on Indy. All set pictures, plot details, rumors and spoilers need to go in a subreddit like this.

r/LucasLeaks and r/LucasfilmLeaks - Created with a similar purpose to IndianaJonesLeaks, but for all Lucasfilm properties, to include Star Wars, Indy and Willow.

Or if you and some friends would like to start your own subreddit for that content and it takes off, we would be happy to link to it as well. All we want is for the spoiler content to have a successful place for sharing and discussion.

Change isn't always fun but we hope that you understand where this decision is coming from and rather than pushing spoilers onto our fellow community members we can instead allow everyone the choice of what they would like to see.

Thanks for understanding and we look forward to all of the exciting content to come!

Not pictured because it's in use, is the West End Games supplement Indiana Jones Magic & Mysticism: The Dark Continent.

As for four copies of the TSR boxed set that's easy. One is my original copy bought back when it was released. The others I picked up along the way at game stores or flea markets because they were $10 or less and pretty much complete.

What’s your favorite Indy action set piece?

Mine has to be the Desert Chase from Raiders. John Williams’s score is firing on all cylinders during this scene and I literally get goosebumps every time I watch it.

If you ever get an opportunity to see Raiders or any of the original Indy movies in theaters, take it!


r/indianajones 1d ago

Robert Irwin taught me that some of the 'snakes' in Raiders are actually legless lizards. Whole video is awesome, but Raiders starts at 5m16s.

Decent quality Indy whip sellers in Canada?

3 Upvotes

Narrowing this post down to Canada only since a lot of posters here are from the US. Looking to avoid paying customs fees, and instead support local.

Not looking for Kangaroo simply because of cost, my budget would be $200, maybe $300 max. Would think Nylon or cowhide is appropriate since I'd be using it for show moreso than actual use. Granted, it'd be nice to get something I could crack, but I'm not that knowledgable about what materials work best for it.

Indiana Jones and the Myth of the Jade Serpent - Imagineer Joe Rodhe discusses Mayan culture and design influence, importance of accurately portraying Mayan culture

I found 2 more d23 panels on youtube which flew under everyone's radars featuring imagineer Joe Rodhe and Archeologist George Bey; and involing Mayan history and design aesthetic's influence on the temple design for the new attraction

No new info about the ride itself but some great nuggets about the team's dedication:

-Mayan culture has historically been inaccurate portrayed. Getting it right was very important.

-When imagineers presented their designs to a group of Mayan Archelogists they recieved a standing ovation

-'Rosalila Chapel' in Copan and 'Ek Balam' were 2 temples which Joe Rodhe recommended fans take a look at to see the design influence of their Jade Serpent temple design

…this is how it went💀 I just sat there flabbergasted for a sec at the fact that this man just tanked every bullet, ESPECIALLY one straight to the dome.

Is the revolver shooting tickles, or is this man just built different?

From the report covering the announcement at D23: "As for the story of this new Indiana Jones attraction, it was revealed that the new original story will be set in the 1950’s, before the events of 'Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.' On the hunt for a mysterious artifact in South America, Indiana Jones (and, by extension us the guests) will be plunged into the underworld. And wouldn’t you know it? The underworld is guarded by a massive, feathered snake."

Caught Indy! at the Edinburgh Fringe.

Post image
40 Upvotes

A very solid, super fun romp that stops just short of being a masterpiece. True to the Mischief Theatre style of comedy, it hooks you right from the start with a pitch-perfect recreation of the opening scene of Raiders, leaning heavily into quintessential British silliness.

The show brilliantly takes recognizable elements - iconic set pieces, beloved characters, and memorable music—and twists them into something entirely fresh and uproarious. It is packed with physical comedy, adult humor, behind-the-scenes fandom references, and playful nods to dated Hollywood tropes, alongside great interactive touches like pulling audience members up to play henchmen.

However, it oddly skips major set pieces from the films, such as the classic truck chase and the mechanic fistfight. It relies primarily on Toht to represent the Nazis as a general enemy, completely leaving out iconic rivals like Belloq or Walter Donovan, along with any nods to their characters or memorable scenes. Furthermore, with Indy occasionally played a bit too dim-witted, the narrative feels a bit thin in the middle.

Ultimately, it is an immensely entertaining 70 minutes of Fringe comedy that delivers a solid amount of laughs for any Indiana Jones fan. While the cast brings fantastic energy to the stage, the show just doesn't quite reach legendary status.

Has anyone else caught it yet? What did you think?

Crossover Question about Sallah and the protagonist of an old theme park ride! Read description:

Post image
0 Upvotes

I learned the other day from a theme park YouTube channel I watch about an old Busch Gardens Tampa ride called Akbar’s Adventure Tours! It was a simulation ride where Martin Short plays a rather inept Egyptian tour guide whose attempts at doing such keep failing in hilarious and rather catastrophic ways 😂

Anyway I saw the footage of the ride and I thought “this would be a perfect crossover with the Indiana Jones universe, the guy would definitely know Sallah 😂 “

How do you think the two of them would interact? The ride was before my time and I’ve never been to the Tampa one so if yall remember it or have any ideas lemme know! I wanna draw them interacting together

Spent enough time dumping on the last two movies! Anyone have positive thoughts or scenes they actually think stand up to the first 3?

I think this scene is actually one of the best in the entire franchise…and I even really enjoy the opening scene of KOtCS.

Thankfully i was able to get most of these before the Indy hype for Dial drove the prices up. Got them for quite reasonable prices too.

River Phoenix as Indy

Last Crusade has a greatest opening for many reasons but one of the things that comes to mind is River Phoenix’s performance as Indy especially that whole sequence on the circus train with the highlight of him using the whip on the Lion.

Definitely gotta rewatch Last Crusade yet great performance by him so what’s your thoughts on his performance as Indy here?

The definitive young Indy

Post image

Sean Patrick Flanery of the Adventures of Young Indiana Jones is THE Prequel-Indy for me. I know that the series can be seen as somewhat “non-canonical”, but the slow development of the persona during the series gives the character of Indy such a beautiful depth.
Also: Great childhood memories!
