I'm premium and I don't see what they're talking about...

 

[Wor-Gar]

Has nothing to do with premium membership, 4226... I mean, a-dev.

Look at the bottom of your screen, left side.... a little address bar for members... at the end is your number.

The time for Indy has come to the end. The villain? The internet SJWs!

Over the last few years that scene has gotten attention because when the two are discussing their past and Marion’s says, “I was a child.” And Indiana Jones says, “You knew what you were doing.” I’m curious what you think of that, because there are some sinister undertones there.
Yeah, I guess you could say that. I think I say I was 16. I don’t know. That’s always what I imagined is she was 16, he was 26. And he was her father’s student. And it’s left very mysterious.
It is.
So we don’t even know what it is. I mean, they could have kissed a few times, and she was just completely bowled over, and he could have just not wanted to get involved with someone so young. And maybe my father would have been furious at him. I mean, what’s great about it is we don’t know what the circumstances are. So she obviously cared deeply for him. He may have cared for her, too. But, in the end, decided it was a dangerous situation and he didn’t want to be involved. I mean, I guess, when something is as vague as that, you can color it any way you want to color it. I’ve tended to color it, sort of, that it was quite innocent. When she says, “It was wrong and you knew it.” I mean, I think maybe he led her on in some way. But when she says she was a child, I think she meant she was 16. Something like that.

I mean, you are the source on this matter. So that’s why I’m really curious what you thought about that.
Yes. I don’t think of him as a pedophile. That’s the direction some of these people are going.

It was a lot worse than Karen imagined. Lucas was proposing that she should've been as young as eleven or twelve.


"RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK"
Story Conference Transcript
January 23, 1978 thru January 27, 1978
George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Larry Kasdan

Larry — I like it if they already had a relationship at one point. Because then you don't have
to build it.

George — I was thinking that this old guy could have been his mentor. He could have known this little girl when she was just a kid. Had an affair with her when she was eleven.

Larry — And he was forty-two.

George — He hasn't seen her in twelve years. Now she's twenty-two. It's a real strange
relationship.

Steven — She had better be older than twenty-two.

George — He's thirty-five, and he knew her ten years ago when he was twenty-five and she
was only twelve.

George — It would be amusing to make her slightly young at the time.

Steven — And promiscuous. She came onto him.

George —Fifteen is right on the edge. I know it's an outrageous idea, but it is interesting.
Once she's sixteen or seventeen it's not interesting anymore. But if she was fifteen and
he was twenty-five and they actually had an affair the last time they met. And she was
madly in love with him and he...

Hmmmmm.....

Probably only for desktop.

Thank you.

 

[Asta]

Hmmmmm.....

It's really shocking to see him pushing for an affair at 11 or 12, and if it weren't for Spielberg the film would probably have gone with it and that would be Indy tainted forever.

 

[a-dev]

Thanks Matticus. 4226 for me then.

 

[The Buffinator]

OK, got it. Your original description had me looking in the lower left of the pop-up that appears when you put the cursor on the avatar.

 

[Admin]

You may only see it on a desktop, not the phone.

Now I want to know what equipment and what browser you're seeing it with. I don't see it when rolling over an avatar. But I can verify you have your number correct.

You are the very first person to see that,, that I've seen post about it.


ETA: Now I see it at the very bottom left corner of the whole screen page. I was looking in the profile box. I've still never noticed that before.

 

[The Buffinator]

Hmmmmm.....

Based on that quote, am I the only one now worried about future allegations against GL?

Oh, I see, its my fault.

I love when secrets behind the curtain are revealed.

Anyway... it is just an item of interest, especially for long time members.

I was just rewatching the Hitler scene from The Last Crusade on YT and seen someone mention that the guy who played Hitler is the same actor who played Admiral Ozzel! Did not know!

And Veers is Donovan in Last Crusade (I know you knew that).
