I'm pretty happy leaving it at that.
It's like suddenly somewhere filmmakers decided that the public were morons, and needed to have every little detail penciled in for them. What ever happened to using your imagination? That's also why I'm not particularly fond of 'Last Crusade,' because it de-mystifies everything about Indiana Jones, and takes away some of the character's charm.
Same thing if they had of filmed the Han scene. So, yes, Jay is right in saying we dodged a bullet. And until we know who nixed the scene, it's all just conjecture. Who knows? Maybe Rick 'Yes-Man' MacCallum is more responsible for some of the bad stuff about the Prequels than Lucas.
The Last Crusade is probably my favourite Indy film, even though it goes to the unnecessary trouble of explaining the scar on his chin!
