Indy Special Edition DVDs coming in May, teaser trailer hits online gold, and no cameo for Mace.

Before Indiana Jones can go in search of the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull on May 22, he’s got to unveil some other treasure – Special Editions of the first three Indiana Jones films, coming to DVD on May 13, with some new bonus content. Previously released as a box set, this time the films are available individually, with some new features, including a joint discussion with the women of Indy: Karen, Kate and Alison. Read the official press release IndianaJones.com (or copied for easier linking over on ComingSoon.net). But StarWars.com has the box art…

Meanwhile, the Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull teaser trailer had reached over 200 million viewings online – in the first week alone. Read more about it on Yahoo!

Who’s the cat thats grumblin’ about
he won’t be in Indy when it comes out?
Samuel L. Jackson!
Can you dig it?!
(apologies to Isaac Hayes)

Indy IV, Young Indy, LEGO Indy, and the real Lost Ark found?

It’s all Indiana Jones all the time here…
/Film posts about a visit to a set in Pasadena where some pick-up photography was being shot.

Is it possible that Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull will not be shown digitally? Joblo.com seems to think so.

StarWars.com started off the tour of third volume of The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones with a tour of Disc One: Tales of Innocence. Indy competes for the love of an Italian nurse with American ambulance driver Ernest Hemingway, and then Indy travels on a spy mission to North Africa as Edith Wharton’s companion. Companion documentaries cover Ernest Hemingway, the French Foreign Legion, Edith Wharton, and Lowell Thomas.

Also on StarWars.com, news of an exclusive Indiana Jones LEGO set for members of the LEGO Brickmaster program. LEGO fans should check it out.

Continuing to showcase some of the sketch artists contributing premium cards for the Indiana Jones Heritage Trading Card Set from Topps, StarWars.com uncovers a few Marion and Elsa sketches by Jessica Hickman.

Has the real lost ark been found? A Welsh scholar believes he’s found the Ark of the Covenant, in a shabby museum in Zimbabwe.

Om nom nom: WB consumes New Line Cinema

New Line is now a ‘unit’ of Warner Bros. How this will affect The Hobbit, no one knows yet, but I’m thinking it does sort of make the production in-laws with The Clone Wars.

Resisting the inevitable ‘leaf on the wind’ joke

New York Magazine’s Vulture blog counts down ten beloved characters who didn’t deserve to die. Wash’s Serenity is the only real genre character on the list, but Samuel L. Jackson’s hilarious end in Deep Blue Sea and Vincent Vega in Pulp Fiction are also contenders.

With that in mind, what sudden character death (outside of Star Wars) still haunts you? (Seriously, if you post any Legacy of the Force spoilers in this thread, I will cut you. Okay, maybe not. Just delete them. But I’m sure there’s a sidebar poll in this about six months down the line.)
