Perhaps no other film has shaped Hollywood like "Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope" has since 1977, which is not bad for a movie whose crew regarded it as a joke during production. George Lucas' epic saga of space wizards, space fascists, and plucky everyday heroes long ago in a galaxy far, far away was ground-breaking in its VFX, yet its story looked to the past. Drawing from a myriad of sources across different cultures and genres, Lucas wove a fairy tale as elemental as any in its depiction of the eternal war between the forces of darkness and light.
Due to its success, the cast of "Star Wars" would forever be associated first and foremost with their roles in the film, sometimes to the chagrin of the actors who had led long and illustrious careers before that. For the likes of Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford, Anthony Daniels,...

Exotic tropical locations within or outside the planet Earth, over-the-top villains, manifestations of unbelievable conspiracy theories, catacombs riddled with death traps, and a swashbuckling wanderer in the lead were the key tropes in most 30’s and 40’s pulp fiction and comics representation of them. These acted as source material when influenced by them; visionary filmmakers like George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and Philip Kaufman brought the character Indiana Jones to life with the movie Raiders of The Lost Ark (1981), and the rest is, in the literal sense, history.
The sprawling set pieces, high-octane chase scenes, and a grand sense of wonder weaved by John William’s music added a certain novelty to the movie, which has marked subsequent releases too. With four entries strong, the Indiana Jones movie franchise has inspired numerous other ventures of world cinema in the last five decades. With the fifth and final entry of the franchise,...

Everyone's favorite globe-trotting, brown jacket-wearing, and ethically dubious archaeologist is returning to the spotlight. That's right: 12 years after being fired by the Smithsonian, Rip Digman is coming out of retirement and eager to prove he's still got what it takes to be a world-class "Archie." To quote the man, the myth, the legend himself in the newly-unveiled "Digman!" trailer, "The only dating I'm interested in ... is carbon dating."
"Digman!," which is set to drop on Comedy Central a few months before that so-called world-renowned professor of archeology, Dr. Henry Walton Jones, Jr., heads out for his final adventure in "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny," is an adult animated comedy series created by Andy Samberg and Neil Campbell. The duo previously worked together on the Samberg-led "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" (where Campbell served as both a supervising producer and staff writer), and seem to have carried the beloved sitcom's irreverent, progressive...

The stable of franchises making the jump to Disney+ streaming series' just keeps growing: Variety has just reported that Disney and Lucasfilms have potential plans to develop an "Indiana Jones" TV show. The project is still apparently in very early stages, so no information is readily available about its plot, cast, or crew. The outlet also specifies that these discussions have been about a show "set in the world of the globe trotting archaeologist," so it would be presumptuous to assume at this point that Indy himself would be the star. It's also not certain as of yet whether this would be a spin-off, sequel, or prequel, but whatever it is, it'll surely be huge for the streamer.
