Title is Official: Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

So what do we think about the title?

Bit pissed at first as I'm hoping the plot revolves around the Ark but as far as titles go only an Indy movie could have a title like this and get away with it. Yep, a perfect title! 👆

Hey guys. Huh - surprised more people aren't on here discussing the big revelation ...

I personally quite like the title for "Indy IV" (though I share Whisper's concern that this means that the rumour about the story revolving around the Ark once again - an idea which I loved - is ultimately not true); obviously not everyone's going to like it, but people have to remember that, with the other 3 films now so ingrained in our collective consciousness, the title of this film (much like the controversial titles of the Star Wars Prequels) was never going to have that nice "ring" to it which the other ones have (mainly due to familiarity).

I must admit, though - I am a bit surprised that the title has been revealed at this stage. The IMDB page for "Indy IV" was suggesting late Autumn time ... not that I mind, of course 😛 !

And so then - roll on the Teaser 😄 !

P.S. For those who haven't yet seen it, here is the OFFICIAL logo for the next Indy film 😄 ! Check it out:

I wonder if LeBouf was given permission to leak the title. Might have a bit of explaining to do to Spielberg.

I'm sure he was. And if not ... then I'm pretty sure that they'll be scraping "the beef" off the walls of the Indy set tomorrow. After all - only Ford is non-expendable 😛 .

I'm, for one, quite glad it wasn't about the Ark again.

Too sequel-ish and not series-ish enough.

You know?

Not bad....

I just assumed it was going to be Attack of the Clones.

I don't understand. Wasn't the "Ark adventure" the entire first movie? What is there left to be done with the Ark?

and isn't Raiders the second movie, chronologically speaking? So the Ark arc wouldn't be the book ends anyway.

Raiders is the 1st movie, Temple of Doom 2nd.

I'd say that the Indy movies are more as seperate episodes/adventures rather than sequels.

Yes, Temple was the second movie made, but chronologically I believe it takes place before the events in Raiders.

Don't like it.

It'll be more like TOD with him chasing after an artifact that isn't Judeo-Christian in nature, but rather about some pagan diety.

Still will be a good film, I'm there... but it seems a waste of all that "faith" that Indy got in the last one.. all that "Do you believe" stuff, etc... to have him now chasing after some alien or pagan thing.

(methinks it starts with aliens in the 50's)

I've read something about this, Shia LeBouf may have said that this is the official title but Mr Lucas has also registered 4 other titles.

Sounds... interesting.

Yeah, those were all speculation titles. This one is official. Go check it out on the main site.
