While this week is all about Star Wars, George Lucas did share one little gem about Indiana Jones. Apparently, he and director Steven Spielberg have read and dismissed Frank Darabont's draft of Indiana Jones 4.

While the temporary set-back will mean a londer wait time for diehard fans, George promises that the wait will be worth it. "Another writer has started working on it. We're just not going to make it unless it's really good."

At this point, the earliest we'll see Indy and his whip back in action is 2007.
