I can’t get enough FLEABAG!..
said nobody ever in the history of the world.
Spoiler: It sucks.
Dude Raiders is 40 plus years old. Of course it has old sound effects. 🙄
Vote with your dollar. Skip.
RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK 8/10
TEMPLE OF DOOM 10/10
LAST CRUSADE 8/10 ✝
KINGDOM OF CRYSTAL SKULL 2/10
DIAL OF DESTINY ZERO!
Ke huy quan please 🙏 would have been right one!
I loved the first 3 movies, but I didnt even want to see an Indiana Jones 4, and when I saw it I was right, aliens!!!
I will never watch Indiana Jones 5, which is why I'm here….to save me that torture.
Those old sound effects were done on purpose. They weren't even contemporary sound effects.
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull had some good ideas but the execution was off. The nuking the fridge wasn't a stretch too far considering the raft from the plane in temple of doom. Not even the aliens bothered me considering Indy has always had a supernatural element. Ive played games like Infernal Machine and the Emperors Tomb. I think what really did it for many people was the quantity of silly stuff. It wasnt just the nuking of the fridge. It was the prairie dogs, the swinging with monkeys, the landing of a duck on the tree and using the tree to swat off enemy soldiers. I think it was the amount of stuff like that which made it feel like it not only nuked the fridge, but jumped the shark, the ocean that contained said shark.
For all of Kingdoms problems, at least it left Indy largely intact. He married Marion, and connected with a son he didn't know he had.
To me I dont mind having Kingdom in my custom made box set. But I will probably forget Indy 5 even happened.
To no one's surprise, Doomcock was right…again.
Harrison Ford's characters are the worst partners ever. He divorced Leia aaaaand Maryon.😂F you Mickey Mao.😠😈
Bait and switch
So Phoebe's character punches an old man unconscious, yet we're supposed to end the film liking her? Yikes.
Also, this isn't the first time Shia LeBeouf's character has been killed offscreen, it happened with the Transformers movies as well. I find that amusing, but I imagine Shia does not.
Adult Short round should've been the sidekick. Everyone loves the actor and there wouldn't be a dry eye in the house seeing him gifted the hat by Indy in the end.
Next movie in the franchise…Shortround and the "blank" of "blank."
Indiana Jones and the Karen of Doom
Remember, if a woman can punch an elderly man in the face, it's ok for anyone to punch a woman.
Her proven wokeness was the perfect fit for their woke agenda laiden script. They don't care.
i rewatched American Graffiti this weekend. If any film could benefit from a remaster, it's that one. It's very dark and grainy all throughout.
They had get everyone drunk so they'd stay in their seats for the whole movie.
So, you all are saying Indy 5 was made for todays vacuous empty vessles who have zero concept of who Indiana Jones is and what makes him such an Iconic character.
A more convincing female lead could have been Angelina Jolie, at 48 she could have done better than PWB…?
If they remake Lara Croft AGAIN…I will not watch it. The most recent remake in 2016 was more tolerable than I thought it would be, but PWB is a Hell No!
If this movie fails, Kathleen Kenndy is out of a job….thats a plus.
Was this whole film this like some weird dream / nightmare for Indy?
Stupidly they overlooked the one thing that could have saved the film. Instead of bandaged reshoots they could have hired a film student (or just about any director including moi) for points only, and reshot the entire film in 1-3 months with Ke Huy; with 'Short round' as the new archaeologist to carry a spin off franchise. Title: 'Short Round and the Raiders of Katmandu'.
Phoebe Whatever only has one personality: unlikable smug. It worked for Fleabag because the main character was supposed to be that way but it's not gonna work for everything. Terrible choice for Indy.
Designing your own video game character limits side character interactions look at Assassins Creed
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destruction.. Those applause at the end was from the enjoyment that it's finally over….
