"No time for love, Dr. Jones!" - 1:09am
By Peter M. Bracke

Sick of waiting for the Indiana Jones trilogy to finally be released on DVD? Well, you might not have to wait much longer...er, sorta. Indy helmer Steven Spielberg recently spoke with the Wall Street Journal about his upcoming projects, including the long-in-development Indiana Jones 4, as well as the original trilogy on DVD.

"We're aiming for next fall." Spielberg was quoted as saying. "George Lucas and I are having an argument with Paramount. Paramount wants to come out with all three movies in one package. George and I want to come out with one film at a time and then come out with all three movies, and maybe even the fourth one, in one package later."

While a Paramount spokesperson quickly followed up with a public statement that there is no argument, only that "Discussions are ongoing," I think I have to side with the studio on this one. Am I the only one who would rather buy one big set than have to buy each flick one at a time, then rebuy 'em all later? Better yet, how about doing both? Release all three individually or as a set, take your pick. (And come to think of it, do I really want to see a 60 year-old-plus Harrison Ford in an Indy 4, complete with wheelchair and bullwhip? Not really.) Watch this space for news as it comes in...
