Betreff: Re: SPOILER zu Indy IV
Soll aus dem Guide stammen:
SOME BACKGROUND
"Older and Wiser. Indy doesn't mellow with age. Twenty-one years after embarking on the search for the Ark of the Covenant, he is drawn into a quest that proves equally challenging and ultimately just as profound. Beginning at a government hangar in Nevada, the adventure takes Indy and a young companion to the coastal desert of Peru, and finally into the geart of the Amazon jungle---where some lives will be lost and others will be transformed"
ABOUT INDY'S COLLEGE LIFE
"A Professor's Life. While he continues to divide his time between teaching and searching the far reaches of the world for artifacts, Indiana Jones is beginning to feel that both the years and the mileage are catching up with him. Deeply affected by his experiences in World War II, he has become a more solitary, introspective man, at a point in his life where the losses hreatly outweigh the gains. The world, too, has changed. Borderlines have been redrawn, former allies have beome enemies, and roads and telephone lines have been pushed into what were once blank areas on the map. Most importantly, people no longer look to the past for answers, but to the future for salvation".
"His reputation precedes him. Following the recent deaths of his father and of Marcus Brody, Indy has found consolation in teaching and has published academic journals. Celebrated both for his prodessional skills and his adventures, Indy is Marshall College's most popular figure: his Archaeology 101 fills up faster than any other course---female students outnumbering males by three to one. Trips to the Yucatan Penunsul and Guatemala have meant Indy has added three Mayan dialects to the languages in which he is fluent".
"Indy sometimes yearns for the old days, when Brody would burst through the door, and the game would be afoot."
ABOUT THE "OX" (aka John Hurts character, who was speculated to be playing Abner Ravenwood----not exactly)
"Born in Leeds in 1887, 'freelance' archeologist Harold Oxley studied with Indy at Oxford under Professor Abner Ravenwood, and later became a close friend of Marion. But Oxley didn't share Ravenwood's fascination for finding Tanis and the Ark of the Covenant. Obsessed with unearthing a crystal skull, Oxley focused his efforts on Central and South Americas, and for many years sought fearlessly to prove that legends regarding El Dorado were based on fact. A close friend of Indy's for many years, Oxley, without explanation, broke off all communication with him in 1937"
ABOUT THE MYSTERIOUS "KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL"
"The Amazon rainforest conceals many secrets. Since Pizarro's conquest of Peru, rumors have persisted of the existance of a city of gold, known by the early conquistadors as El Dorado, and by the Inca as Akator. Built by the Ugha people with the help of their gods, Akator was said to have been millennia ahead of its time. The search for the city claimed the lives of many explorers and comes close to claiming Indy."
"Akator bequeathed monolithic architecture to the Tihuanacans; precision stonework to the Inca; corbel arch construction to the Maya; and ghoulish sculpture to the Aztec. An American Atlantis, it may be the source from which all other cities sprang."
A COLD WAR
"If Indy has learned anything over the years, it's that the world will never be safe from misguided people who would attempt to use sacred objects for manevolent purposes. Thuggees, Facists, Nazis...and now the Soviets have entered the game. Traumatized by what Germany did to Russia in World War II and fearing the nuclear might of the United States afterward, Joseph Stalin had urged the KGB to experiment with the hidden potentials of the human mind. And now the chief architect of those experiments in ESP has emerged from behind the Iron Curtain to seek out an object capable of elevating the Soviet Union to the forefront in psychic warefare."
IRINA SPALKO
"Raised in a superstitious Ukranian village, where her psychic abilities led her being branded a 'witch', Irina Spalko was handpicked by Stalin to oversee research into psychic warfare. A former member of the KGB's Science and Technology Directorate, Spalko has been decorated with the Order of Lenin, Her powers of intuition have taken her a long way from the experiments she performed on animals as a teenager. As voracious a seeker of truth as any Indy has ever met, Spalko shows there is no limit to how far she is prepared to go to achieve her goals. Her expertise with the saber, rapier, and foil drives the point home"
"Spalko is not daunted. She has broken harder men and she will break Indiana Jones"
SOME QUOTES:
"It's been a brutal couple of years Charlie" -Indiana Jones (talking to the new dean of students)
"Mutt's the name I picked. You have a problem with it?" -Mutt Williams (talking to Indy)
"Stare into its eyes, and it'll drive you mad" -Indiana Jones (about the crystal skull)
"We will be everywhere at once, Dr. Jones, as powerful as hypnotic command." -Irina Spalko (about the Stalin's plan)
