Not much to report on at the moment I am afraid, just updating with a couple tid-bits.
Firstly, Grace has a couple more shots from the New Haven filming location you might not have seen.
Secondly, Boba’s Bounty have a report from Hasbro about some new Indiana Jones toy figures which will be previewed at Comic-Con,
While we will be sneak-previewing some figures at Comic Con International, we have to keep the details under wraps for now. We will divulge that there are some very familiar scales as well as a few surprises in the line. Suffice to say that we have top men working on it. The same top men that have been bringing you the Star Wars line, so there should be a lot of consistency in approach.

I’m not sure that we’re going to get too many spoilers from this shooting locale as I had first suspected, considering it was only a one day shoot and likely only a short scene in the film. But I will still be hiding these pictures behind a “read the rest” link today - just to prevent anyone getting upset.
So… without further adieu Read the rest of this entry »

A couple of days ago our tipster Glen revealed that shooting would be taking place at Essex Train Station. Today Keith W reports back to us with a gallery of impressive images (I have hidden the spoilerish facts):
I thought you might like to have some pictures of the Essex Steam Train location that was rumored to have been transformed into the “Bedford Station”. Well, I went down there today and it looks as though tomorrow (July 5th) is the big day! Lots of 50’s gear to look at and there were already some Genre security in place.
One of the neat things we saw was the way they covered up the installed AC unit with mountain laurel bushes, also the generators for the power to the train were enclosed to look like crates on the back of the train. We also saw a car that was rigged up to be towed by another vehicle… possible close ups?
Photos after the break as they reveal the location. Read the rest of this entry »

Well, the Indiana Jones 4 movie news just doesn’t stop flowing at the moment does it? Guess what, we’ve got more. We’ll split this post into two, the first half will be spoiler free and the second shall come after the break and be packed to the brim with spoilerific action scene delights.
To begin with, Shia LaBeouf dons the cover of Vanity Fair, what with one popular Transformers movie being released. As to be expected, there are some choice quotes about the Indiana Jones film.
“People say, ‘What are you doing for your 21st birthday, Shia?,’ and I’m like, ‘I’m making an Indiana Jones movie.’ What’s better than that?”
[...] “When he mentioned Indiana Jones, I was about to have a heart attack. I couldn’t breathe. And then he told me not to tell anyone. It’s like winning the Super Bowl but you can’t tell anyone you won the Super Bowl for three months!”
[...] Of his time on the set with Spielberg, LaBeouf says, “I remember saying, ‘I’m the least likely person to be here,’ and Steven said, ‘You and me both. I never wanted to make another one of these. We ended the series perfectly.’ That scares me, as a fan and as the actor who’s doing it. But Steven said he wouldn’t have made this movie if the script wasn’t right.”
[...] “It’s a lot of pressure,but that’s the way I want it, man. I prayed for this pressure. This is willed.”
And this is why we love Steven Spielberg (no spoilers in this video I promise):

Glen Eigo has sent us a report, this may be considered a spoiler so the text has been hidden, to reveal the details simply highlight the text:
I was at the Essex Steam Train in Connecticut today with my wife and son. There were signs going up for Bedford Train Station and Western Union.
Essex Steam Train is a tourist attraction with an old steam engine that generally brings tourists and sightseers up and down the Connecticut River Valley. The train travels up to Deep River Connecticut to let passengers off to ride the Beck Thatcher River boat up the Connecticut River.
There were Genre Productions crew members all over the site checking things, hanging signs, and painting the train station. There was also a company supplying tents and some signs directing crew members where to park.
Anyone who wants to see the production being set up should probably travel over there today or tomorrow morning. The layout of the area would make it difficult for the crew to completely seal off the area as there are multiple ways to approach the facility.
And to continue our theme of posting ridiculous amounts of 1950’s New Haven imagery, here are some excellent new links.
Firstly, The Movie Scorecard has an excellent picture of the motorbike being used during filming and they claim to have some big news coming soon, we’ll have to wait and see!
Secondly, let’s have some more galleries:
