Indy 4 Original Script Unearthed!

Filed under: Film Flickers > Harrison Ford

indy.jpg

Remember the script drama that plagued Indy 4?

Well the Hollywood Reporter shines a light on the renewed interest in the first script that was panned cause the movie to most fans was so-so.

Refresher — noted screenwriter Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption) spent a year writing a draft of Indy 4.

Steven Spielberg and Harrison Ford liked it.

George Lucas did not. Diva!

Script was then rejected.

On Wednesday, the first script (titled Indiana Jones and the City of the Gods) surfaced.

Some sites posted the script, then quickly yanked it down.

We bet Spielberg and Lucas' lawyers were on them!

The source of the leak remains a mystery.

We don't want to ruin things for y'all who haven't seen the flick.

So if you want to see what peeps have to say about the leaked script and how it compares to the movie click here.

Here's one spoiler: No Shia!

    what could have been…i loved what i saw in KotCS, but taking in more of darabont's vision would have been awesome. george lucas is such a hack these days.

    I can see why you are upset that they didn't use the first script. I read that one of the characters was a gay wookie. Finally a role you were born to play.

    that would have been a dream…Shia totally fucked up this movie for me…UGH. I still love him though! Just not acting….or talking….or moving…

    I AM A FANATIC OF THIS FRANCHISE AND I SAW THE MOVIE AND LIKE IT BUT REALLY DISAPPOINTED ABOUT THIS UFO OR ALIEN SHIT FACTOR IN THE STORY…I KNOW IT IS GOING THERE NO SURPRISE HERE. I LOVE THE FACT MIRIAM IS BACK AND HAD A CHILD WITH INDIE…. GOOD PART OF THE STORY AND SHIA IS GOOD CHOICE AND WILL BE INTERESTING IF HE DO THE FUTURE FLICK AS INDIE SON……AS FOR HARRISON FORD…I NOTICED THE HEAT IS NOT BURNING MUCH AS THE OLD TIME…HE LOOKS A TIRED INDIE JONES. OH WELL MAYBE THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE. YEAH I BELIEVED SHIA IS THE SAVIOUR OF THIS MOVIE. LOVED HIM AS I DO IN TRANSFORMER. CAN ACT AND PACKS SOME HEAT. AND LASTLY……I CAN'T STOP MYSELF LAUGHING AT THE END.

    The only thing I can say about Harrison Ford is he looks pretty weird wearing an earing.

    Some people can pull it off, some people can't.

    He can't.

  27. 27

    still need to see this flick. is it worth the $10 at the theater, or can I just wait for the DVD?

  28. Sarah says – reply to this

    i thought the movie was good not great and shia i don't think was the problem really it was the story line and the whole things with the aliens was the weird part and the actors were all really good even with some what crappy material. They should've just written Shia into the original script then the movie would have been perfect ha

    I think George Lucas had the sense knocked out of his head a while ago by that butch daughter of his. Sometimes it is time to retire and pack it in. Bigger talents than him have walked away from films before they embarrassed themselves too badly. Others haven't. He's turning into the Bette Davis of the 21st century.

  32. 32

    McCain not worried about no Shia, just glad the sunni's aren't in it

  33. rahee says – reply to this

    my mouth literally dropped open when i read that Shia wouldn't be in it.
    i'm sure the original's a lot better.. but i'm just glad Shia was in this one

    FUCK YOU GEORGE LUCAS! You totally fucked this movie up. I have loved this series as a child and to see it back was great except you had to put that alien SHIT in there! You FUCKED up Star Wars for me now you had to fuck up Indie??!! Do the die hard fans a favor and go FUCK YOURSELF in your flying mother fucking saucer you Wookie piece of shit!

  35. hatei says – reply to this
    35

    Shia did not ruin this movie, why all the hate?? The damn alien story ruined this movie and Lucas proved once and for all he could care less about a quality story and is only doing anything for the money. Good luck there buddy, don't count on me to go see the animated star wars flick this year, or ever!

    Oh, and it was George's 'genius' scriptwriting

    I just heard a report that the couple has made over $2M in the last 2 years - I suggest that all of us that don't care for the couple we boycott them - that means - don't click on articles about them, Don't comment on them - Put them on Ignore. If they are advertising a produce write and tell the marketing department of that product that you are going to stop using it as long as they are advertising this product. I think we should start with US Magazine and Taco Bell as far as the boycott goes.

    If we hurt the companies in their pockets - then Speidi will go AWAY

    Seriously,without Shia it would've sucked!
    The movie was great,BUT,the only stupid part (in my opinion) were the Aliens and the space ships and shit.
    I mean,come on.

    George Lucas,WHY do you have to have Aliens and spaceships in ever fucken movie you make? Are they reaaaally that necessary?

    Thank God they dumped that original script!! I watch action movie for ACTION not fucking "romance". Besides, I was never all that impressed with her in the older Indiana film. She wasn't rpetty and I could not see why Indy even cared about her.

  48. Alisa says – reply to this

    They big mistake they made with either script was the bullshit about aliens. Please. how unreal and stupid, not to mention unoriginal. Just because something is mysterious or it's origins can not be understood does mean "aliens" made it. They could have been way more creative with that. I personally think that ancient Atlanteans made the real crystal skulls and it would have made a much more interesting movie had they explored a theory like that, rather than some stupid tired alien theme that is so overdone that I just about yawn every time aliens or space are in any movie plot.

    That City of the Gods script rocked. Plus no horrible Shia Laboof! Shia ruined Indy 4…

  56. 56

    About the only reason I watched the film was because of SHIA!
    Saying that he ruined Indy 4 is bull! He was great in it, and played his role perfect. Maby you didn't like his character, but that's not Shia's fault..
    He's a great actor, stop hating on him.

  57. 57

    Saying that Shia ruined Indy 4 is bullshit.
    maby you didn't like his character, but that's not his fault. He played the role of Mutt very well, and I think he made the film better than it would have been without him. Stop hating on him, he didn't ruing Indy 4, the alien thing did!

    I loved that movie… but I would've definately missed Shia!!!

  59. 59

    IMO…
    I've been a fan of the franchise since day one (yep, that was twenty-seven years ago!) And in my opinion, Indie 4 was great. It stayed true to the spirit of the other films.
    I was so relieved to see they didn't matrix it out or use CGI to take years off Harrison's age. Nor did they rely solely on over-the-top special effects to fill the entire film with action the way Hollywood tends to do when "updating" a franchise. I also think they chose well with Shia. Regardless of what the media says, I think he makes a terrific action star. He moves so well on camera (reminds me of a young Patrick Dempsey). Those who claim the movie is substandard have been desensitised by Hollywood's excess and should probably take a step or two back to regain perspective.

    Re: ladysingsthblus
    i understand where you are coming from, i too watched the originals as a kid too but it seriously lacked the simplicity that people have grown to love. the classic one liners, dare i say occational cheesiness, but most importantly, it lacked a plausible story line! instead of the whole alien crap, they could have done something related to the myan gods or something on a more plausible level! the conclusion was just terrible in my opinion havent we seen enough aliens already?! that, more than shia as a sudden monkey whisperer, bothered me more than anything else and i was sorely disappointed with this one and it sounds like it stems from lucas alone…

    Dear George Lucas,
    Thank you for fucking up Indiana Jones. Good fucking job dip shit. You could have had SEAN CONNERY in it but you ditched for that little untalented piece of shit Shia La-douchel. Indy 4 SUCKED. This is coming from a diehard Indy fan too. I was half expecting Obi Wan Kenobi to pop out of a space ship and challenge Indy to a duel. ALIENS? REALLY? ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS? You brutally murdered a legend. Shame on you for putting out such a shitty film.

    I want to say to anyone who hasn't seen this movie - DON'T. It sucked. It just reworked story lines from the previous three movies and had no original story of its own. Karen Allen just stands there thru the whole movie. She has no good dialogue even. And 25 years later she still has the same hairdo!!!! In typical George Lucas fashion, just a lot of explosions. WHY DIDN'T THEY LEAVE THE ENTIRE PROJECT TO STEVEN SPIELBERG? HE'S THE REAL GENIUS, NOT LUCAS. There was no character development, nothing. Boring.
