Indiana Jones stays old school

From Joblo:
Is your local theater still doing things the old-fashioned way, and hasn't converted to digital projection yet? Don't sweat it, you'll still be able to catch INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL when it hits in a few months. In fact, that's the only way you'll be able to see the whip-smart relic collector, per orders of The Beard himself.
Indy's cousin 'Ohio Munson' tells us Paramount is informing theaters that per Steven Spieberg, INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL will NOT be available in digital format. The studio is requesting that complexes who can't project 35mm format let them know.
There you have it. Our favorite scrappy part-time professor (who, sadly, is named after the dog) prefers to remain firmly in the 20th century for now.
I wonder if Lucas lost an arm wrestling match or something. Or maybe Speilberg's demon level class of Hollywood influence is higher than Lucas'.
