Hey guys. Just thought that I'd post this story, which I thought was quite amusing: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/movies/a76806/spielberg-angry-at-indiana-jones-leak.html. Heh - I knew that Spielberg wanted to keep the film's plot top secret, but wow; go Steven stick out tongue !

I myself have read the spoilers in question ... and kinda wish I hadn't; they don't exactly give away the whole plot, but they do reveal a few things I probably didn't yet want to know (and so I won't repost them here). But, if you still wanna read 'em, then they may still be over at www.aintitcool.com (which is where I first read them), or else they're still bound to be somewhere on the internet. But take caution ...

History Buff
Heard about this guy. What an idiot!! No, i'll pass on the spoilers. However, some jerk on the radio said what was leaked so inadvertently heard something i wish i hadn't.

As I said before, I won't repeat the spoilers here out of respect for those who don't want to read them, but a brief summary of what the extra in question revealed can be found here: http://www.nypost.com/seven/09252007/gossip/pagesix/pagesix.htm. Apologies for the v. late reply ...

The bit where it highlighted the involvement of the two actors playing "CGI gopher" characters on set concerned me right from the outset.

Early script leaks indicate that the Crystal skull ship was here to checkon the population of Gophers (like the probe did for Whales in STIV:The voyage home) and the Gophers are revealed in the 1st act to be the true masters of earth and they take Indy back to their home planet.

The ark turns out to be Gopher technology.
Its like one of their phasers.

Kazenji
Gopher technology and ships??

sounds like your getting your idea's from the Jax games but except that had ottsel's mix of an otter and a weasel.

Sadako of Girth
Jax?

In the end Lucas just wanted to remake Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and replaced mice by gophers.

Ripley: How long after we're declared overdue can we expect a rescue?
Hicks: Seventeen days.
Hudson: Seventeen days? Hey man, I don't wanna rain on your parade, but we're not gonna last seventeen hours..!! Those things are gonna come in here just like they did before at the golf range. And they're gonna come in here...
Ripley: Hudson!
Hudson: ...and they're gonna come in here AND THEY'RE GONNA MOCK US!
Ripley: Hudson! This little girl survived the gophers longer than that with no weapons and no training.
*to Newt*
Ripley: Right?
*Newt apes a salute*
Hudson: Why don't you put her in charge?
Ripley: You better just start dealing with it, Hudson! Listen to me! Hudson, just deal with it, because we need you and I'm sick of your bullshit.






Hudson: Is this gonna be a standup fight, sir, or another bughunt?
Gorman: All we know is that there's still no contact with the colony, and that a CGI Gopher may be involved.
Frost: Excuse me sir, a-a what?
Gorman: An animated rodent.
Hicks: It's a bughunt.






Newt: My mommy always said there were no gophers - no CGI ones - but there are.
Ripley: Yes, there are, aren't there?
Newt: Why do they tell little kids that?
Ripley: Most of the time it's true.



Insurance Man: Thank you Ripley, that would be all.
Ripley: No, goddammit that's not all. When these things "do" come down here and that "will" be all,

Ripley: and all this bullshit you think is so important, you can just kiss all of that goodbye...!

queeq
OMG, we've moved over to Aliens now... laughing out loud

Sadako of Girth
Hi-ffirmative. *Salutes* stick out tongue


Hicks: "We're all in strung out shape, but stay frosty, and alert. We can't afford to let one of those bastards get animated in here."




Ripley: These people are here to protect you. They're soldiers.
Newt: It won't make any difference.





Ripley: They cut the power.
Hudson: What do you mean, "They cut the power"? How could they cut the power, man? They're animals!








*Ripley sees the 1st 20 mins of IndyIV played at her company debriefing*
Ripley: Did IQs just drop sharply while I was away?








Ripley: Just tell me one thing, Burke. You're going out there to destroy them, right? Not to study. Not to add in post. But to wipe them out.
Burke: That's the plan. You have my word on it.
Ripley: All right, I'm in.













*Bishop reads a medical chart describing the captured gopher*
Bishop: "Surgically removed before embryo implantation. Subject: Marachek, John J., died during the procedure." They killed him taking it off.
Burke: Busy little creatures, huh?

queeq
So you can copy paste.

Sadako of Girth
I change punctuation and emphasis too.

I left a couple unaltered as they seemed to fit the scenario perfectly anyways..

queeq
Yes... so that's what Ridley Scott is doing.

A revamp of the Alien franchise called GOPHER. Scary stuff.

Sadako of Girth
Pant wettingly scary. yes


As the troops pile into the APC Hicks gets the door behind them, as he closes it, a Gopher springs into the gap and starts pushing the doors back open...Hissing and sqeaking, it's crazed mouth salivates, its jaws part threateningly...

Hicks: "Get the door!"

*Hudson and Spackler grab the handles to the doors and hicks reaches to his shotgun...Hicks puts the winchester barrel in its mouth*

Hicks: "Eat THIS!"

*Hicks pulls the trigger, the resultant explosion in the gopher's skull sends bits of skull fragments, gopher brains and tissue all over the APC.....The troops are elated*

He figured that he could get an gopher back through quarantine, if one of us was... impregnated... whatever you call it, and then frozen for the trip home. Nobody would know about the gopher embryos we were carrying...

Christ! What do we do?? How can we defend ourselves??

Sadako of Girth
There is nothing. It is hopeless (except for adandoning Indy IV and maybe V...

Patient_Leech
Shield ourselves from TAOS!?? And the Unknown Idiocy to come?!?

Sadako of Girth
Indeed. The psyche of an entire cinema going world depends on it.

queeq
I wonder how many gophers tehre will be in Red tails? Maybe they'll have some black gophers.

Sadako of Girth
With red tails?

queeq
indeed.

Sadako of Girth
With a bunch of Albino ones too, they could all merge into Swastikahogatron....a fearsome robot killing machine with alien death rays for eyes to oppose the good guys in the movie...and irritate the audience with their gopheric hijinks when not in Swastikahog mode.

queeq
*makes notes for next film and dials L for Lucasfilm*

Sadako of Girth
'Gopher broke'... stick out tongue

queeq
The Return of the Swastikahogs

Sadako of Girth
Swastikahog Day:

A romantic comedy when Bill Murray is mocked everyday by scoffing Groundhogs until he kills some of them... war ensues, repeating everyday...can Bill learn through repetition solve how Swastikahogatron's induced mass slaughter/suicide at the town picnic?

queeq
*dials L for Lucasfilm again*

Sadako of Girth
The Shining remake:


Jack Torrance takes his family with him for the winter to the overlook hotel. Theres nothing actually wrong with the hotel whatsoever, but soon the CGI gophers start to mock him, laughing at him all day and night. Danny is taunted by them too and the extra badly animated CGI hedge animal gophers haunt him daily leading the family to inevitable tragedy and horror. With Bill Murray as Janitor Dick Holloran

queeq
I know a scene to make that work.

Danny writes "REHPOG" on the door and scare his mom repeating that word in a funny Alvin-and-the-Chipmunks voice: REH-POG REH-POG REH-POG"

Sadako of Girth
And his vision includes rapidcut flashes of elevator doors opening and hoardes of Gophers all spilling out and running towards camera

queeq
As well as a vision of the Olson twins with lots of gopher blood on the walls... the horror, the horror... (The Olsen twins, that is not the blood)

Sadako of Girth
Event Fur-izon:

The Event Horizon disappeared near Neptune 20 years ago and has resurfaced. Despite not responding to comms, the ship seems to be salvagable, so a crew are sent to bring the ship home.
When they get there they will soon find that the hellish dimension that the ship has been to retained some of the darkest, most furry, most CGI'd horrors imaginable as they fight to stay alive and unirritated by the evil that awaits them.

queeq
Ah, ah horror version of Trouble with the Tribbels.

Sadako of Girth
Exactly.




It'll make 'Critters' look like 'My Left Foot'.

queeq
Happy Dance

Sadako of Girth
Krites Vs Gophers is something I'd pay to see.....

Kazenji
Ah Critters and its countless sequels.

Sadako of Girth
The eighties were a colourful time in cinema.

The imagination that would go into movies back then...the sense of wonder and horror and naivety was brilliant.

Kazenji
A young Leonardo DiCaprio is in the third one.

Patient_Leech
He's probably not happy because people will find out ahead of time how stupid it is and boycott the film.

Sadako of Girth
Strange that the actors didn't.

Maybe they signed on, THEN read the script..

10 crazy adventures indy went on

Sadako of Girth
Ha that Falcon one would have been cooler than TAOS.

At least we then would have had The Aliens Of Cool.

Kazenji
Falcon one?

that Nazi guy with the robot arm how he was suppose to appear in the third movie at one point.

Sadako of Girth
Does anyone reverse over him in a truck?

Kazenji
Might have.... but have to go into Lucas's crazy mind for the answer.

queeq
Who?

Sadako of Girth
Yeah the one where Indy and Short Round find the Millenium Falcon with the skeletons of Solo and Chewie aboard.

Yeah they'll only screw it up

its a good idea tho to have in a indy movie have him as an former nazi general keeping himself alive with the robot parts.

Sadako of Girth
It would jump the shark though...

Patient_Leech
Sharks with lasers attached to their heads!!

Sadako of Girth
...and their legs.

Kazenji
Even better if they had robot legs so they can walk on land.

Sadako of Girth
Now thats a movie right there.

SNL had a sketch alluding to this..

More like victory.

Sadako of Girth
Yep. A well earned one.

queeq
Hehehe...

Sadako of Girth
Cant wait for his next reviews.

queeq
It takes him a while usually.

Sadako of Girth
But they are worth it.

queeq
Very true.

Sadako of Girth
A vital source of free pizza rolls too.
Its a shame more homeless and starving people don't have the net.
If they knew, he could do good for them.

They could go to him and get the pizza rolls.

From down in the basement.
All the way into the dark basement and over to the corner at the furthest point from the door.

queeq
It would certainly increase the speed of making new reviews.

Sadako of Girth
Yes. Indeed. That Indy IV one was a corker.

queeq
Happy Dance

Sadako of Girth
Hope he does Jaws 3 and 4.

queeq
Can't wait for the CGI shark...

Kazenji
to start telling jokes.

Sadako of Girth
Pixar's "Finding Pliskin"

and son't forget the sequel: "A Snake's Life"

A kitchen where everyone dies of lead poisoning

queeq

And Dukes 1 and Dukes 2....

Sadako of Girth
With all parts played by CG Ernest Borgnine.

queeq
YEAH!!

Sadako of Girth
That guy was always quality.

His prescence is missed on TV/movies.

Kazenji
Ernest Borgnine was in RED with Bruce Willis only a small role.

Sadako of Girth
I didnt see that yet.

In all honesty I thought he was dead...!
Good to hear thats not the case.

queeq
Nope,alive and kicking. He looked very happy in Red, which is an enjoyable movie.

Sadako of Girth
Will get hold of that then....cheers!

queeq
Don't expect Pulp Fiction or anything, but I thought it was quite enjoyable.

Sadako of Girth
Not many gimps in the one to be brought out?

queeq
Hehehe...

It's a bit like light version of Die Hard. But then with a couple of enjoyable old geezers.

Kazenji
And an old lady.

queeq
I love Helen Mirren forever.

Sadako of Girth
Shes quality..and a good looker too, especially for her years.

queeq
She always was... always will be.

Sadako of Girth

Make sure to bring the extinguisher.

Sadako of Girth
Actually due to the breakdown in the economy, and lack of government funding, Hell's lake of fire is only on half heat two hours a day. So Im gonna go to Bermuda or something instead when I die or Florida, like everyone else.

queeq
Gonna be crowded in Florida by then.

Sadako of Girth
Yep.

queeq
Even the ones that die don't get buried. The sun mummifies them and you can hardly tell the difference between the living and the dead.
