Indiana Jones Is Coming Out This Summer.

as always who knows. Remember people thought the first jar jar infested star wars would be great. I mean I heard about it then forgot but if the right people like it I may check it out. But as long as there is no Shia lewhatever it's all good (I mean in life not that movie).

I'm not hopeful.
Another classic franchise that Disney has bought.
If past efforts are an indication they will kill it.
Indiana Jones with a time machine?
Gimme a break!

Harrison Ford is enjoying something of a renaissance this year. He's in 1923, a prequel to Yellowstone; Shrinking, a comedy series with Jason Segel on Netflix; and soon this Indiana Jones sequel. Pretty good for an 80-year-old! (political crack omitted)

Correction: Shrinking with Harrison Ford is on Apple+.

I read this as coming out as in coming out of the closet. Which is a possibility in this day and age.

He and Velma can hit the clubs together.

And I guess now one can "come out" with a panoply of sexual preferences.

These retirement sequels anticipate an audience of older movie goers. Ahem, we'll see how that works. Four mature women stars appear a in a movie about going to the Super Bowl, though I think the actual Super Bowl may have upstaged them in terms of drama. And now Indiana Jones on Medicare. I'm in no position to be agist, but I do admire Anthony Hopkins for some of his roles confronting aging head-on, with one character who is an older man mocking the infirmities of age.

On the other hand, I think anyone under the age of 65 has to be careful about scorning aging altogether. I think people who grew up with grandparents they loved and respected have a lot better chance of living into vital old age and maintaining both their mental presence and their dignity. Some folks are just cued up to dislike their older selves, and this does not help.
