Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull looks to be an exciting movie. There is a rumor going around that the movie was based on the legend of the 13 skulls that are supposed to prevent the end of the world Dec. 21, 2012. Since the storyline is a secret, we'll have to wait until it's release to see if the plot resembles the rumor.

The filming of Indiana Jones was done in my favorite town of Deming, NM.  They don't have a theatre in Deming NM yet but will soon be building one.

Part of the movie was filmed in Deming, at a former World War II Army Air Force base. The film is supposed to take place in 1957 in a Cold War-era.

About 6 days of filming was done just outside of Las Cruses on the 180,000-acre Corralitos Ranch, where a concrete slab and a track for a rocket sled were constructed for some night scenes, on which explosions and other pyrotechnics lit up the sky.
