Cannes

Ever since the disastrous premiere of "The Davinci Code" at the Cannes Festival two years ago Hollywood has been afraid to let any of their other films be ripped apart by Cannes critics. Fortunately, last night, Steven Spielberg's "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" broke that fear, making a more successful premiere than expected.

Reviews are saying that the film should be a summer hit fulfilling the expectations of Indiana Jones fans all over. Shia Leboeuf, Cate Blanchett, and John Hurt joined the experienced Jones crew of Harrison Ford, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and Karen Allen to put together the action packed plot. Spielberg stated that it was his fault that it took nearly 20 years for the fourth Jones film to appear, however he also stated that Cannes was the appropriate place to release it, even amidst the rumors of a possible flop like "The Davinci Code."After the premiere it was said the cast and crew would be attending a strictly exclusive yacht party, only holding 250 guests. 

Get ready Jones fans, the wait might've been worth it!
