Saw a really-for-real movie poster in the cinema the other day. I felt 10 again.

Was it that good?

It was really just a quad-sized repurpose of the one above, but seeing it printed in a movie poster case in a theater with "2008" in the Temple Of Doom font just made it all cool and fun and <I>real</I>...

I truly hope we're <I>not</I> getting another Phantom Menace and that Spielberg is back on popcorn form...

Guess my post didn't, um, post the other day!

I think I said something about how the Crystal Skulls were not very amazing looking, but then again, the movie is about Crystal Skulls, so what are ya gonna do?

I like how this is shaping up. I have to admit to feeling giddy as a schoolboy.

+ New photo of Indy (small one) with the scoundrel actually looking dirty (Seems we can put that fear to rest

)

Pretty cool - but he still doesn't look roughed up dirty...especially in the full shot. Where are the ripped, sweaty clothes and the torn pants?

Variety has reported the following:

Par will attach the first teaser for "Crystal Skull" to fantasy pic "The Spiderwick Chronicles" on Feb. 14, with the spot to hit the Web shortly thereafter.

Reason for the delay is that the film only recently wrapped, so much of the material that would go into a memorable trailer just wasn't ready until now.

Awareness and anticipation also is already high for the pic, so producers didn't feel the need to show too much too soon.

"In the case of Indiana Jones, he's such a well-known character that it's not like you have to get out there and introduce something new," said Spielberg spokesman Marvin Levy. "You tailor the campaign to the material. We also want to keep a lot of the surprises. That's part of the fun."

Very cool presentation from Comic-Con with a couple of "special" guests!!

(via DW fansite/YT)

EDIT: Actually, I didn't realize it was already on the website.

Funny how they do refer to Indy's "sweaty, dirty" costume!

(Although it doesn't look it in the least: in that shot, anyway.)

Yep, a day or so after they played it at the Con!

But thank-you for playing...

That's pretty cool.

Reminder to everyone: The trailer debuts tomorrow morning between 8:00 and 9:00am central time on "The Today Show", and will then immediately appear online at Yahoo!.
