Filming began on June 18, 2007[33] at Deming, New Mexico, for scenes in Morocco.

An extensive chase scene was shot between June 28-July 7 at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut, which doubled as Indiana Jones' Marshall College.

They moved to Hawaii, shooting twenty percent of the film for three weeks on private property, keeping production secretive. Hawaii stands in for a South American rainforest.

Indiana Jones 4 is the biggest film shot in Hawaii since Waterworld, and will generate $22 million to $45 million in the local economy.

What the hell? He looks more like Wilfred Brimley than Han Solo in this picture...

[Hardrock69]

The movie is set in the 50s, 20 years or so after the events from the last films....

Karen Allen was so hot in "Raiders".
Holy moly!

Now...not so much.

But still the best female character in all the Indy movies.

[Hardrock69]

I would hit it!

[bueno bob]

She doesn't look bad, considering. Great news to have her back though, it'll lend Indy 4 a little bit more in the way of consistency...

Any word on Willie Scott or are her and Steve-O not on speaking terms?

Man, Sean Connery isn't in it? Fuck that shit.

Last I heard Connery was going to be part of the movie. I haven't heard any different since, so I assume that he still is. That article probably just didn't mention it, perhaps?

No, Connery was approached and declined because he's not in the best physical health right now and said he just wanted to enjoy his retirement. I found that a few weeks ago while searching for news on Indy 4. It may have a link on the official website. I think its indianajones.com

Plus...if this film is set 20 years after the previous installment, it would make perfect sense that Indy's father is DEAD!

He was already portrayed as being pretty old in "The Last Crusade"...

I remember Sean Connery saying that if anything could have pulled him out of retirement, this would have been it...but his health wont allow it.

I can't making the absence of Sean Connery your be-all end-all on whether or not you're going to see the new film. I've heard several people now saying "Connery isn't in it? Well FUCK THAT!" like Sean Connery's absence is derailing the entire franchise and I don't see the logic. Dr. Jones Sr. is a very small addition to the Indiana Jones legacy; why wasn't anybody saying "No Connery? Well FUCK THAT!" when the first two movies came out? Because he wasn't necessary in those films, and frankly he's not necessary in this one.

I don't understand why people are complaining about it so much, anyway...I didn't think Last Crusade was a particularly good movie and Sean Connery, while interesting, wasn't anything special in it, either. On a personal level, I'm honestly glad he's not in it. I'd rather not see an Indiana Jones movie reliant on anything more than Harrison Ford to sell it, and it doesn't appear that I'll be disappointed on that.

I have no doubt that the movie is going to be outstanding.

I hope Sean is ok....

Shaun (or is it Tracey Lamb today?)

Are you his doctor then?

Where is your source/link for this statement of yours?
