George Lucas said he wants to do more but with Indy as a supporting role to Mutt.

I dont wanna be the "told you so" guy....
But as you can see, the instinctive, gutteral, visceral reaction of horror and mistrust to this new phase of cash-cow/movielore integrity-raping is totally justified.
For those actually excited by the "news", enjoy the upcoming sterile, CGI hollow bastardisations.
For they are there your benefit. The people who will take whatever Spielberg and Lucas dish out. (Secondarily of course to the profit margin, and attempted career furtherments, that based on this, do not deserve to be furthered, of course.)
Feck.

I doubt Spielberg will direct the Mutt movies though.

He'll probably be executive producer though.
And that is enough to leave the stain.

Now now... be kind to Mr. Spielberg. He's still top of the line.

Can't be much of a line these days then. 
I know that it seems that he was at the back of the line when they handed out common sense regarding sane decisions in movie making these days.

His previous film was Munich... that's still pretty good.

I will definitely watch it, on your recommendation.
But it still no matter how I might enjoy, Im never going to give someone who was responisible for WOTW, TFs and then Indy IV acclaim as the best filmmaker or top of the heap. (Unless that is a heap of manure, of course)
His earlier catalogue, to me is untouchable.
His current works are "more often than not" untouchable to me, but for different reasons.
IE: - I might get the poop on my fingers.

Munich ranks among his current work.
And yet... apart from the excellent Stanley Kubrick, I donīt know anyone that made at least a couple of mediocre films. My great idol Alfred Hitchcock made some not so good ones, and a great director like Mike Nichols has also made his cheaper shots at filmmaking.

Sure but a big rapid succession of bummers always seems worse.
Hopefully he'll restore sanity in time.

If not then I'll be able to save a few quid at the multiplex I guess, avoiding all with his name on. But I hope youre right.
A long distinguished career should finish on a good flow.

I rewatched Saving Private Ryan the other day (on D-Day anniversary).
A reminder of Spielberg on form.
Heavy Heavy flick.
Utterly rivetting for every second that its on, except Matt Damon's horrible monologue about his brothers and the barn.
Pity Spielberg forgot that the Brits were involved at any point in the 2nd world war, though.

Blah blah,... it's not about Brits, it's about an American unit. Let the Brits make their own D-Day movie. I always found that such a lame criticism: why does any movie dealing with history to have to be complete? It's a story... and zoomed in on this particular fictional event.

I sir will poo-poo your Blah blah blah...!
Im not talking characters central to the story, the story clearly was about an American unit, but having no Brits there would be like....... having no Germans there...
Just a few of the guys on the beach being blown apart would have done. Maybe a few Brits wandering in the lines in the scenes where the downed plane rally point was...? A few at the babysitter bridge...?
They were SO conspicuous by their abscence, that it shatters the fourth wall, for me.
It threatened to be the enigma code all over again in U571...
