Indiana Jones, Shia LaBeouf Searching for Futher Religious/Alien Artifacts?
Ut oh, Shia, you've just caused hubbub! Speaking to an obviously-possessed BBC interviewer, LaBeouf gave the following brief-but-terrifying response when asked if we'd see him in another Indiana Jones movie:
"Steven just said that he cracked a story on it before I left, and, uh, I think they're gearin' that up."
I can appreciate the spirit of being launched out of a nuclear test site and climbing right back into that fridge to try again, but this is not a good idea, Steven Spielberg. You (along with Oprah) are the most powerful person in media (source: I think I read that in a magazine once); can you not use that power for good? Just finish Tintin, throw Liam Neeson in a top hat and do the Lincoln thing you've been talking about for a decade, and put this Indiana Jones thing to bed. Thank you.
I'm not sure I believe the story anyway. LaBeouf using the phrase "cracked a story" makes me think maybe Spielberg's quote was mistranslated when converted from English to 1920s Reporter Speak.
