Raiders came out in 1981 and took place in 1936 -- 27 years later puts us in 1962 or so. If they get their timelines right, Stevie S and Co. should be able to have Indiana Jones fight not only the cold war but the Beatles invasion -- not to mention prevent the aliens from killing off Kennedy in '63.
WWII?? Dr. J, just look at any fan site (or wikipedia): it is fairly well known the movie is a cold war thriller versus the Soviets, definitely not WWII. How else to explain how HF aged over 25 years?! And, as Sue pointed out, HF definitely looks aged...
Obviously I was kidding about the Beatles and Kennedy, though :) But perhaps Elvis will make a cameo...
I can't wait for the new Indiana Jones but that's not saying much because I also couldn't wait for the new Rocky, Rambo or Die Hard. One of them being worth the wait. What do you think about the next 3 installments of Terminator with Christian Bale. Is all originality lost in Hollywood?
I play guitar for various Portland bands (colorfield, Flat Stanley, The Floydian Slips). Find out more about me on my Facebook page at http://on.fb.me/mULCrf

on Steve...

isorski: when I saw HF on the Oscars, he didn't quite look up to doing an action movie. But I'll go for old time's sake.

I have to disagree with you Voxmoose. The planes and cars look pretty WW2 era to me.
In response to Sue, I love the line about things not being as easy as they used to be.

Voxmoose,
No, I had not checked out the fan sites, so I stand corrected. Would be cool to work the fab four into the plot somehow, though...

I have always been an Indy fan I can't wait for this one.
