George Lucas Still Figuring Out How To Ruin Another 'Indiana Jones'

As much as he loves continually producing shittier versions of things you once loved, George Lucas is reportedly struggling with his efforts to write another Indiana Jones. With Steven Spielberg throwing him under the bus about how stupid Kingdom of the Crystal Skull's crystal skulls were, Lucas is now taking a little more time to decide what fabled object Indy will be searching for. Speaking to Vulture, Lucas revealed he has not yet settled on whatever bullshit trinket will be chased after, saying:

"Actually, I told [Spielberg] I didn't have it yet. I told him about the story, but I really haven't found the MacGuffin yet. I mean, I know what it's about, but I just have to find a MacGuffin that fits into the arena we're working in.

Well, I'm sure you'll figure something out, George. And I'm sure, whatever that thing is, it will probably be pretty convenient to sell as a toy. Were there ever some kind of holy, mythical Hulk fist gloves?
