Indy Goes Back To School

The official Indiana Jones site has posted another production video for Indiana Jones 4.

This one called "Reuniting the Family," includes interviews from the set with director Steven Spielberg, Indy himself--Harrison Ford, executive producer George Lucas and producers Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall.

The new video offers fans a peek of an exchange between Spielberg, Ford, and co-star Shia LaBeouf standing on a university set...There's also a shot of Spielberg picking up Indy's trademark fedora off of the ground. It does not include any new film footage--the segment instead uses footage from the first three films.

Stax of of IGN pulls out a few relevant quotes:

"I'm excited about making Indy IV for no other reason than we get a reunion with our original family," Spielberg said. "I mean, 1980 was the first production and it came out in '81. And here we are making the fourth film that reunites us with Harrison, with George, Kathy and Frank, and it brings so much of our extended family back together again."

Ford recalled, "I was quite happy with the three that we'd done and didn't anticipate doing more, and I don't think Steven or George did either for quite some time. And then we began to think about it again. ... I think it'll be a lot of fun."

For Lucas, "It's always fun to be on the set because it does stop time, and you just think back to the last time you were there. Standing there is like time stands still."

I'm such a fanboy for this stuff!! I can't wait for the film to hit theaters next May...
