The Grey
Directed by Joe Carnahan
Starring Liam Neeson, Dallas Roberts, Frank Grillo, Dermont Mulroney, Nonso Anozie, and Joe Anderson

Indiana Jones Voodoo Doll

Disneyland fan Brad Chowen, of Brad's Disneyland Blog, went last month to Trader Sam's, an Enchanted Tiki Bar at the Disneyland Hotel in Anaheim, CA. While there to view the bar's holiday decorations, he spotted some Indiana Jones-themed artifacts.

Encased in glass was the Indiana Jones voodoo doll seen in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, along with a letter from one of the film's characters, Short Round, to "Sam" with instructions to destroy the item so it won't hurt Dr. Jones anymore [...]
