Spielberg talks more about the Indy 4 script in this interview:

It seems that the story is being re-written....

hmm still this once again goes against anything being said by robert...

[pitfallharry]

Ah, it's hard to say what's going on now. I'm at a loss......I maybe 40 by the time this thing hits the theaters!

[Fedora]

Makes one wonder if the film will ever be made. My last word from Robert had him maintaining his original assertions. And he dropped this info. Take it as you will.

One thing that had occurred in the time I was at the cape was that
production unit for remote 3 (like 2nd unit deployment) is having
trouble getting access to one of the out of country location choices
and they are scrambling to assuage that problem. Don't know if that
will be a delay or not.

And this comment here on his leaving COW.

I have not posted at COW and have let Mike know that I would not be
there from here on out. Reason for such is a couple fold.
First there is and would be nothing to report except what we are
sharing herein on the hats, from here on out. (In comparison, tr to
get information on 'Pirates of the Caribbean And anything in a
public way would be either not true, speculation or otherwise and
the climate there with the fan base, is hostility towards anything
or anyone outside the 'church' dogma. I saw this same behavior in
the UFO world exactly, and wish to not be involved with that, nor is
there time for that either for me.

An example of this, by random link for study, is here on 'Pirates of
the Caribbean, III', for example:

www.imdb.com/title/tt0449088/

Everyone is aware there is going to be number 3, but it is
speculation on all points of detail from here on out. Lockdown is
lockdown. Now, look at this at random for IJ4 from the same source:

www.imdb.com/title/tt0367882/

This example is how the disinfo works regarding movies, which are
based on secrecy and surprise. No 'Freedom if Information Act'
applies........haha. And the last place one at this stage would want
to be on, is a public forum like COW or Raven or any of the others.
The net allows people to attack without remorse, anonymously, then
they hit and run and change onto other topics. It is extremely
unpleasant, and so different than how we behave offline in the real
world.

So, will lay low as far as posting. And what I share with you, you
may share at the site if you wish and that which is a no-no I will
indicate that it is for your eyes only (FYEO) for now.

Regards, Fedora

Steve,

Thanks much for the post. I have wondered whether the public reports were true or simply misdirection. I am really hoping for the big cover-up scenario, for the sake of time and the potential of your's and Marc's hats being involved.

[Fedora]

I am really hoping for the big cover-up scenario

Yes, and me as well. It would be a shame if I spent so much time to get those hats made, and then Marc did the same and this turns out to be a farce. I mean, I took time off from my orders just to supply these hats. At the time, I figured it was ok to do so, since if the hat made it to Ford's head, or the film, this would increase the appreciation of the AB hats for the folks who spent their hard earned money in buying one.

In the end, if this turns out to be a farce, it will only hurt the credibility of one guy-Mr. Stephens. And, I will hold the honor of being the most gullible person around. I guess I need to be less trusting of folks, but that is hard for me to pull off. If a notable guy makes claims, I have to give him the benefit of the doubt, well, I don't have to, but at the end of the day, I feel better about myself if I do so.

If I get ripped off, by giving hats away, it will not be the first time. To date, I figure I am in the hole by around 6 hats, by trusting what folks tell me. I have stopped sending hats before I get paid!!! ;D Fedora

No sir. Only as the guy who took a once in a lifetime chance and gave it the best shot a person could

Best Wishes,

Steve,

Trust me when I say that nobody with a full set of marbles would ever call you gullible here. You and Marc have done exactly what I would have.... made what could be a tremendous business decision. You used all the information given to you and backed it up with a gut feeling. Being a trusting person is certainly a great thing, and I would have done the same thing. The reward far outweighs the loss, if the worst case scenario comes to pass.

I, as most everyone does, fully appreciate your hard work and efforts in making such fine Indy fedoras. I also appreciate the desire you and Marc shared to get your hats into the movie series that inspired them. No matter how it comes out, you can sleep well at night knowing you did the right thing and that's what counts.

Like I said above, I repsect you guys, and hope for the best here. Plus, I really want to see Indy 4 get made before Harrison dies!!!

Ken

[pitfallharry]

Yeah, you can't blame yourself Fedora. Who wouldn't have taken the same chances if they were given the same opportunity. I can't say I wouldn't have if I were in your shoes. That's a deal to sweet to pass up.

As you may or may not know I've been back and forth on all of this with Robert for a while now. At this moment in time I don't know what to believe or not to. What he said to you in your last post makes sense but yet again there were some things that he said to people over there that just didn't fit with what was public knowledge.

Being a big movie buff that I am I kind of lost sight of the fact that the business itself is very unstable and things can change on a dime.

I wouldn't loose hope just yet. I know it seems like it doesn't look good but tomorrow you could wake up and the hat is in Ford's hands and everything is a go.

As far as Robert goes if this all turns out to be true and the hat gets in the film then I take back anything I said in regards to questioning his credibility. If this keeps dragging on with no end or solution in sight then a lot of us are going to think it was some kind of con.

It's to bad in this day an age we all have to constantly be wondering if someone isn't trying to take advantage of someone else or has malicious intent. The Internet seems to amplify that paranoia.

Thanks for keeping us posted on what's going on. I know we all are hoping this works out and Indy 4 even gets made......

That better be one heck of a story because they've been working on it for a decade! ;D
