Hollywood’s holy grail: Props from ‘Indiana Jones,”Pulp Fiction’ are now luxury collectibles

“Mad Props” follows Tom Biolchini, a banker from Tulsa, Oklahoma, as he scours the world for the coolest authenticated props and advocates for them to be viewed as luxury collectibles.“Back in the day, the studio would say something like, ‘Oh that Darth Vader outfit, maybe we can use it another time’ [and keep it in a store room],” Biolchini told The Post. “They didn’t see these timeless props as something needing curating.” But the documentary, streaming on Prime starting March 25, features plenty of people who do see it that way — including “Alien” star Lance Henriksen, Robert Englund, who played Freddie Kreuger, and Mickey Rourke, who refers to props as “activities” to enhance his performance in movies like “The Wrestler” and “The Palace.”“Some people invest in art or sports car that appreciate over time.

‘Indiana Jones’ star Karen Allen disappointed about role in ‘Dial of Destiny’
Indiana Jones franchise, “Dial of Destiny,” finally swung its way into theaters late last month.While series stars such as Harrison Ford and John Rhys-Davies came back for large portion of the action-adventure flick, one returning alum only had a sliver of time on the silver screen.Karen Allen — who portrays Indy’s longtime love Marion Ravenwood — made a quick, blink-and-you-missed-it cameo appearance at the end of the 154-minutes-long movie.The 71-year-old got candid with the Hollywood Reporter recently and expressed her disappointment with her lack of camera time.She previously had larger parts in 2008’s “Crystal Skull” and 1981’s “Raiders of the Lost Ark.”Allen admitted that when she read the script for “Dial of Destiny,” she had expected that she would play a major role.However, she noted that it “was just not the direction” that the producers decided to go with.In the franchise, Marion and Indy have a son together, named Mutt Williams. Mutt was played by Shia LaBeouf in “Crystal Skull” and did not return for the latest film in the series.LaBeouf’s character actually died before the movie’s events (which occurred in the late 1960s).Allen explained how the filmmakers had issues with the story because LaBeouf, 37, was not making a comeback, and they had the character killed off-screen in the Vietnam War.
