: : I heard on the radio the other day some Indy 4 news. It was most of the same old junk but with something new. They mentioned the "Raiders of the Fallen Empire" title and the Mark Hamill/villain blurb. They said that both Ford and Connery had signed to do the picture, Ford charging $45 million for it.
: : We've heard it all before, but has anyone heard a price tag for Ford mentioned yet?
: : Thought you'd like to know,
: : Indy
: First I've heard of Ford asking $45 million. I knew he was on the $20 million list, but isn't 45 a tad pricey? I mean "Raider's" was released on a budget of 10 (limited by Spilberg's demand) , and that is by far the best of the series.

It doesn't sound too unreasnable when you consider that Gibson
supposedly recieved 50 million plus profit share for lethal weapon 4.
Personally I don't believe movie and sports star make as much as
people say. I think it's just publicity.
