On Indiana Jones as it relates to Wall Street 2:

"I feel like I dropped the ball on the legacy that people loved and cherished," LaBeouf said, explaining that this upped the ante for him before he began shooting the "Wall Street" sequel. "If I was going to do it twice, my career was over. So this was fight-or-flight for me."

On where the blame lies:

"You get to monkey-swinging and things like that and you can blame it on the writer and you can blame it on Steven [Spielberg, who directed]. But the actor's job is to make it come alive and make it work, and I couldn't do it. So that's my fault. Simple."

He's not alone in thinking Indy 4 missed the mark. Harrison Ford isn't happy either:

"We [Harrison Ford and LaBeouf] had major discussions. He wasn't happy with it either. Look, the movie could have been updated. There was a reason it wasn't universally accepted."

On what he thinks Spielberg's reaction is going to be when he hears about this frank discussion:

"I'll probably get a call. But he needs to hear this. I love him. I love Steven. I have a relationship with Steven that supersedes our business work. And believe me, I talk to him often enough to know that I'm not out of line. And I would never disrespect the man. I think he's a genius, and he's given me my whole life. He's done so much great work that there's no need for him to feel vulnerable about one film. But when you drop the ball you drop the ball."

Steht doch schon hier

Warum denn so grummelig ? Kann ich doch nicht riechen, dass das dort so steht !? Habs von AICN gehabt...

Hat Shia das Drehbuch nicht vorher gelesen? Falls ja, so sollte der fertige Film ihn nicht allzu sehr überrascht haben.

Anscheinend hat das Shia wirklich gesagt da es schon mehrere Seiten / Quellen aus Cannes es berichtet haben. Deswegen bin ich auch so enttäuscht weil es meiner Meinung nach keine gute Einstellung für Indy 5 ist ...

Soweit ich weiss kannten nur Lucas, Spielberg und Ford das Drehbuch - alle anderen Schauspieler haben einfach wegen dem Kultfaktor oder wegen Spielberg zugesagt ...

Und was den Zeitpunkt negativer Kritik angeht, kann ich mir auch gut vorstellen, dass die Verträge der Schauspieler und anderer Mitglieder solche Sachen auch behandeln, oder?
