Is it possible that my favorite movie of all time is 30 years old?

It's true.  

It has been three decades since Harrison Ford first donned that fedora and swung that whip as Indiana Jones. The film was released on June 12, 1981.

Since then, Ford brought Jones back to the big screen three more times - in "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" (1984), "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" (1989) and "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" in 2008.

And there might be another one in the works - Shia LaBeouf, who starred alongside Ford in "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," said that a fifth film "isn't far off."

Let's hope it recaptures some of the thrill of the earlier films.
