Snakes, whips and fedoras, oh my!

Is Indiana Jones' honeymoon over? Is it time for the archaeologist/treasure hunter to get back to doing what it is that he does best?

The answer may depend on who you ask. Shia LaBeouf, star of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and Indy's son in the movie is out promoting his latest action bonanza Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and leaked a crucial bread crumb.

As you can watch in this BBC interview, Shia let it slip that director Steven Spielberg cracked the story on the next Indiana Jones before he left town to promote Transformers 2.

Of course, coming up with a story and getting a working script together are two completely different beasts.

Producer Frank Marshall displayed reserved optimism when he spoke with Empire recently about the possibility of another Indiana Jones movie.

"It's really about the script. Once we see that, we'll see. We're not going to wait another 20 years. We'd all love to make another one. I'm anxious to hear the idea!"

But he also hedged his bet a little.

"Until there's a script, nothing's definite."

So, what do you think about a potential new Indiana Jones movie? Is Harrison Ford getting to old to carry Indy's whip? Are you on board for another movie after seeing some of the cringe-worthy moments of the last one?
