DATELINE -- Friday, 24 September 1999
Here we go again: We're very burned out on George Lucas and all of the rumors surrounding the Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogies -- so burned out that it is only for the record that we note Lucas gave an interview to French television earlier this week wherein he remarked that the Indy series is currently being prepped for DVD release. A few months ago we might have shouted the news from the rooftops, but frankly, with all of the great DVDs hitting the street over the next several months, Lucas's somewhat coy revelation smacks of too little, too late. Of course, whenever Indy arrives, we'll be watching it along with everybody else -- but no feature set, suggested price, or release date has been announced, so we are suspending the celebration.
