10 Reasons Why Another Indiana Jones Movie Is A Great Idea

Steven Spielberg is certainly a busy man at the moment. Fresh off taking his Cold War thriller Bridge of Spies to this year's Oscars, the director is already teasing his next project - The BFG, which got its first full-length trailer this week - and prepping for the one after that, sci-fi actioner Ready Player One. Anyone who's been keeping track, however, will know that there's one more film from The Beard on the horizon, and for fans it's a reason to be either excited or nervous.

7) Spielberg Is Currently On A Good Run

Steven Spielberg’s last four movies received a whopping 25 Oscar nominations between them. That’s not just the Academy being overly-kind to one of their favorite auteurs either – critics for the most part also adored all of Tintin, War Horse, Lincoln and Bridge of Spies. These are the films the Berg made post-Crystal Skull, a movie which apparently spurred him onto one of his best ever runs. And make no mistake, Spielberg is on one hell of a run.

It remains to be seen whether Spielberg will trip up with either The BFG or Ready Player One, but right now the filmmaker is on such a winning streak that it’s easy to be hopeful for Indiana Jones 5.

The last time he made such an unbroken chain of solid movies, his hot streak lasted eight years (from Raiders to The Last Crusade). Currently, we’re only five years in, with the eight year mark being 2019, the year Indy 5 is due for release.

Anyone feeling confidently superstitious?
