Harrison Ford Returns…


American actor Harrison Ford is ready to put on his hat and
cracking his whip once again… Harrison Ford come back!


On Tuesday, Disney announced that the 72-year-old actor would
be reprising his iconic role in the fifth ‘Indiana Jones’ movie – after
41 years since “Raiders of the Lost Ark.” – the first installment. In short, Harrison Ford returns as Indiana Jones.


Do you know that Disney+ is increasing its per month price from March 2021!


So, “Jock! Start the engine once again!”


Disney announced on Friday in a tweet that the movies would
be directed by James Mangold under the production of LucasFilm. The film is
expected to release in July 2022.


In an investor presentation, the entertainment giant also
announced that the movie is already in its “pre-production” stage.


The news came with no surprise as people were already
looking forward to a new Indiana Jones movies. While talking to Ellen DeGeneres
during her show in February, Ford confirmed that new Indiana Jones movie
production would start this year.


“It’s going to be fun. I’m excited,” the 72-year old
expressed his delight on the show. “They’re great fun to make.”


The last time we went to theatres to see an Indiana Jones
movie was in 2008 for “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,”
which came almost two decades after the third installment “Indiana Jones and
the Last Crusade,” which was premiered in 1989.


The original movie, “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” released in
1981, followed by a sequel “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” in 1984.


The legendary director Steven Spielberg was behind those
movies…

In the years since the release of the first film, the
franchise rose to popularity and considered to be the greatest movies of all
time and one of the greatest action movies ever made! In addition to this, the
movies had a significant influence over popular culture, as the films’
successes inspired a variety of filmmakers and continued to influence modern
media.


The United States Library of Congress selected it for
preservation in the National Film Registry in 1999, deeming it as “culturally,
historically, or aesthetically significant stories.”


Harrison Ford has also been part of an array of beloved
characters on the big screen such as Han Solo in “Star Wars.”


No matter how big or small the character is, he always
invests equal effort for every other movie. While talking to a media
organization, he said that he’s not an “overnight success,” as he struggled for
15 years before getting a major real and prominent success.


“Persistence is certainly something I think I can credit
myself for having,” he said.


In one interview, Ford shared that he felt “obliged” to put
equal efforts and passion as he had put it in the first role.


So, in honor of the return of classic Indiana Jones movie
with his iconic cast, let’s reflect back to the five most memorable quotes from
the Indiana Jones movies:


“Snakes.
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?”


Just like any great character has a certain fear, varying
from Chiroptophobic Bruce Waye to Captain America’s disdain from being called
“a laboratory experiment.”


Indiana Jones also has the greatest fear of snakes. In
Raiders of the Lost Ark, he went into the massive underground tomb to resurrect
the Ark of the Covenant and discovers that the floor is full of slithering,
poisonous snakes. And that’s when he uttered this iconic dialogue, “Snakes. Why
did it have to be a snake?”


“Don’t
call me, Junior!”


It was a work of genius when Indiana Jones father in the Last
Crusade was introduced to the fans! Sean Connery, the original James Bond,
played the father of the protagonist who was considered to be an American James
Bond… well, extra point to


Spielberg to played it smartly!

Connery and Ford’s incredible chemistry was such a delight
to see that they genuinely seemed to be real father and son in the movie.


“A
Boat?! We’re Not Sinking, and We’re Crashing!”


Willie Scott may be one of those annoying characters who
scream when encountering danger and relies on men for the rescue. But she did
give an iconic dialogue to remember!


Willie, Indy and Short stuck in a crashing plane with no
pilot and parachutes. So Indy takes out a raft, and that’s when Willie says, “A
boat?! We’re not sinking; we’re crashing!” Luckily, they survived the crash on
the same boat!


“Jock! Start the Engine!”


Here come my favorite dialogue and a favorite Indiana Jones’
moment!


The opening scene of Raiders
of the Lost Ark
might be the best opening scene in the history of cinema!
The scene opens with Indy going into an ancient temple located at the middle of
the jungle to recover an antique relic. He safely dodges all the booby traps on
the way, and grabs a relic before being chased by aggressive warriors of an indigenous
tribe. That’s when she shouts to his pilot, “Jock! Start the engine!”


“You
call this archaeology?”


Dr. Jones was an archaeologist by profession, but all we see
him fighting off Nazis and being chased by the violent lads…


Indy and his father was stuck on a Nazi tank when they were
wandering through the desert in Indiana
Jones and the Last Crusade
, that’s when Henry, Sr. ironically utters, “You
call this archeology?”


Did nostalgia hit you after reading this? Sure, it did!


Here’s the most anticipated movies and books of 2021!


Well, we have to wait till July 2022 to learn the inside
story of ‘Indiana Jones’ and to see adventurer Indiana Jones back in action… Meanwhile, here’s your list of 80+ love, Disney and Christmas movies!
