First Look: Mickey Mouse Turns Indiana Jones

The Crystal Mickey has been stolen! Disney Channel's Mickey Mouse Clubhouse spoofs Raiders of the Lost Ark (Friday, 9 am/8c) when a statue of the world's most famous mouse is snatched from the Clubhouse. This is no mere tchotchke.

Indiana Jones 4 Spoiled by an Extra; Lucas and Spielberg Strike Back

A stupefying loose-lipped extra who worked on Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has incurred the wrath of no less than George Lucas and Steven Spielberg by blabbing plot points to a hometown paper. Despite having inked a nondisclosure agreement with the production, Tyler "You'll Never Hear About Me Again" Nelson — who played "a dancing Russian soldier" in a reportedly since-snipped scene — revealed to Oklahoma's Edmond Sun (Non-spoiler alert) the nature of Indy's latest quest, how Karen Allen's Marion plays into it, and the context of a pivotal scene between Harrison Ford and Cate Blanchett. A rep for Spielberg would not confirm for the New York Post the veracity of the apparent spoilers, but literally mwa-ha-haed, "Who knows whether that particular person will ever work in this town again?" And I'm assuming he didn't mean Edmond, Oklahoma.
