Indiana Jones and the Whatever Whatever

Maybe it’s just the nostalgic preamble that roped me in, but, okay, the new Indiana Jones movie looks great.

Just hearing the theme in the trailer gives me chills.

My favorite not-quite-five-year-old announced yesterday that he didn't like Star Wars any more, because now he liked Indiana Jones instead. He's shed his white T-shirt + black vest for a button-up, a jacket, and a too-big fedora.

Also, am I imagining things, or is Indy fighting inside the big government storehouse from the end of Raiders? That could be the best call-back since the exchange from the beginning of Last Crusade:

Elsa: What's that?
Indiana: That's the ark of the covenant.
Elsa: Are you sure?
Indiana: Pretty sure.
