Rumours are forever rife on the Internet, especially about film, and these plot revelations for Indiana Jones IV should be taken with buckets worth of salt because even the articles admit that they don't have their hands on a script. Saying that, they seem confident that they have the right revelations none the less.

There doesn't seem to be too much to spoil the story, but the main thing is that the opening sequence involves Area 51 and Russian agents, and that there's quite a bit about aliens and crystal skulls.

Mmm...once more my "it doesn't bode well meter" increases. Indiana Jones and aliens? Well I know we've been stretched before with immortality and such, but these have all been historical myths so they weren't too much of a stretch. I'm sure there's a way they could tie in an aliens plot line the same way, but there's still some part of me that's doubting that this will feel the same.

You can read a bit more about the sources revelations over at CHUD through Rope of Silicon.

I'm not reading anything yet that gets me excited about this fourth outing, and I still think that they should have left it alone.
