Ray Park as Snake Eyes
The Official Star Wars Blog has a great photo of Ray Park, AKA Darth Maul,
as Snake Eyes from the upcoming GI Joe movie. I'm ashamed to admit it, but I'm kind of looking forward to this.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
According to
TheForce.Net:
"New Indiana Jones Adventure to be Titled 'Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull' HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (Sept. 9, 2007) – The title of the new Indiana Jones adventure, now in production under the direction of Steven Spielberg, is Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, it was revealed today by actor Shia LaBeouf. LaBeouf, who stars in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull with Harrison Ford, Cate Blanchett, Karen Allen, Ray Winstone and John Hurt, announced the title during today’s MTV Video Music Awards, which were broadcast live from Las Vegas. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is a Lucasfilm Ltd. and is being distributed by Paramount Pictures.

Frank Marshall returns as producer, with Kathleen Kennedy joining George Lucas as executive producer.

Doesn't really roll off the tongue, does it? Sounds like they let George pick the title, which really doesn't bode well, unless that's all they are letting him do.
Update: Comments are starting to pour in on
Cinematical. Looks like I'm not the only one who's not happy.

No Sean Connery in Indy 4
Some disheartening news today in the still untitled fourth Indiana Jones installment, as Sean Connery officially
announced that he will not be joining
Cate Blanchett and
Shia LaBeouf, stating:
"I get asked the question so often, I thought it best to make an announcement. I thought long and hard about it and if anything could have pulled me out of retirement it would have been an Indiana Jones film. I love working with Steven and George, and it goes without saying that it is an honor to have Harrison as my son. But in the end, retirement is just too damned much fun. I, do however, have one bit of advice for Junior: Demand that the critters be digital, the cliffs be low, and for goodness sake keep that whip by your side at all times in case you need to escape from the stunt coordinator! This is a remarkable cast, and I can only say, 'Break a leg, everyone.' I'll see you on May 22, 2008, at the theater!"
I'm glad he's so giddy about it, although I'm confused as to how the man who turned down playing
Gandalf is going to pass on the chance to play Indy's dad one more time.
