Harrison Ford's final outing as Indiana Jones will be "emotional and exciting" as the franchise heads back to its roots after a badly received fourth installment.Proof positive the PR branch at Lucasfilm has been the pits for the past 10 years.
Ford is well-known for his portrayal of the archaeologist and adventurer, and has agreed to reprise the role one last time.
Indiana Jones 5 will begin shooting next year, and much of the plot line will be centred around the Bermuda Triangle, an area over the North Atlantic Ocean where a number of aircraft are said to have disappeared.
"George (Lucas) and Steven (Spielberg) have been working on a script and it's almost there," a source explained.
"Harrison is on stand-by for filming next year. This looks like being an emotional and exciting conclusion to the franchise, with Indy facing his biggest challenge yet."
Hopefully without loudmouth/traitor Shia "DUI" LaBeouf.
The Bermuda Triangle idea is interesting, if there's any truth to this. Steven Spielberg touched on the Bermuda Triangle in Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
Maybe this time Indy is looking for sunken Spanish treasure, a great deal of which is still strewn all over the Caribbean Sea.
Update: According to thewrap.com, Paramount and Spielberg's reps have issued the usual denials. Carry on.

Unless all those critics jumped on the "it was crap all the time" bandwagon some months after the film's release (as they did with the prequels). No, they must mean badly received by the extremely vocal whiny fanboy minority who post nonsense regularly on teh interweb.
