Plot Summary: The newest Indiana Jones adventure begins in the desert Southwest in 1957 – the height of the Cold War. Indy and his sidekick Mac (Ray Winstone) have barely escaped a close scrape with nefarious Soviet agents on a remote airfield.

Now, Professor Jones has returned home to Marshall College – only to find things have gone from bad to worse. His close friend and dean of the college (Jim Broadbent) explains that Indy's recent activities have made him the object of suspicion, and that the government has put pressure on the university to fire him. On his way out of town, Indiana meets rebellious young Mutt (Shia LaBeouf), who carries both a grudge and a proposition for the adventurous archaeologist: If he'll help Mutt on a mission with deeply personal stakes, Indy could very well make one of the most spectacular archaeological finds in history – the Crystal Skull of Akator, a legendary object of fascination, superstition and fear.

But as Indy and Mutt set out for the most remote corners of Peru – a land of ancient tombs, forgotten explorers and a rumored city of gold – they quickly realize they are not alone in their search. The Soviet agents are also hot on the trail of the Crystal Skull. Chief among them is icy cold, devastatingly beautiful Irina Spalko (Cate Blanchett), whose elite military unit is scouring the globe for the eerie Crystal Skull, which they believe can help the Soviets dominate the world... if they can unlock its secrets.

Indy and Mutt must find a way to evade the ruthless Soviets, follow an impenetrable trail of mystery, grapple with enemies and friends of questionable motives, and, above all, stop the powerful Crystal Skull from falling into the deadliest of hands.

Ok... I thought the trailer was exciting as hell. I grew up watching Indy. Dare I say this, but those movies were my star wars. Nothing against the star wars films as I loved them dearly, but now being in my late 20's and a historian/ (volunteer)archaeologist and film lover, these films are dear to my heart. I got chills when the music was cued when indy picked up his hat followed by the iconic silhouette. I hear a lot of comments about the cheesy one liners. That is classic indy humor! From what i can tell from the trailer, they (spielberg/lucas/kennedy) preserved the indy spirit spot on. I cant wait for the feature in may!

Crikey !! Indy is back!!! I wish tomorrow was May 22nd but what the hell, I guess i have to wait 3 months. If my grandfather was alive today, I would be much happier. He always loved Indiana Jones movies. My Grand Father was an crazy adventurer in wildlife and i miss him. By the time i see this new Indy movie on May 22nd, I will pretend he is with me.
