According to the Guardian article, Spielberg wants to get the film into theaters by July 4, 2005. This would be less than six weeks after the release of _Star Wars - Episode 3_ (assuming it comes out in late May as all the other SW movies did). I really wonder if Lucas would want to compete with himself this way. How about _Indiana Jones and the Raiders of Social Security_? ---

> [@](#): > > I really wonder if Lucas would want to compete with himself this way. Um, you do realize that Spielberg is not Lucas, right? And the thread title is a reference to a quote by Harrison Ford. Sometime after _Last Crusade_, he was reported to have said that he wouldn’t do another one unless it were titled _Indiana Jones and the Comfortable Chair_. ---

you all know that if Indy gets into another exciting truck chase, the goddamn turn signal will be on for 30+ miles. I just hope that they don’t try to “substitute” some flavor of the week actor for Ford. They should just let it lie. ---

Isn’t the title of this thread the one suggested by Ford himself on an episode of Late Night with Conan O’Brian? I vaguely recall it being so, but would like assurances. _Indiana Jones and the Rectal Crusade_ (I take care of my 88 year old Grandmother and being old sure has it’s indignities.) ---
