I thought it sucked really badly. Even the acting sucked. I dont care that the story was all crazy with the aliens and whatever, I mean how believable was indy walking on air or fountain of youth cups? But they were still good movies.
It seems like they rushed the movie and it made me sick, then again the tripple indy burger king whopper I took inside with me may of added to the pain.
And that's another thing I forgot to mention. Indy and Sean Connery are supposed to be immortal because they drank from the cup of the J man in the Last Crusade. I'm not sure what happened to that concept in this most recent one.
I'm sorry, I'm about as big a Stars Wars fan as they come, but Episode I and II where fucking horrible. They do not deserve to bear the name Star Wars. They should have just named them Shitty Prequels to the Great Trilogy known as Star Wars.
You must have spent too much time in that cornfield if you find the new Star Wars to be at all watchable.
I don't see how any self respecting Stars Wars fan can even defend the large pile of fecal matter that Episode I, II and the animated movie where. Episode III was somewhat decent but still pales in comparison to the original trilogy. Lucas should be tarred and feathered for bringing those abominations into this world.

you can make a fair arguement that episode III is better than ROTJ.
lucas already sold out after empire. ROTJ does not belong on the same field as ANH & ESB. teddy bears over throwing the all mighty empire? come onnnnnn.

My biggest problem was the 2nd Death Star. If the Empire can roll them off the assembly line so quickly, what was the big deal in blowing up the first one?
Oh, and don't ever turn your back on a pissed off teddy bear.

they're only immortal as long as they don't cross the seal
oh and indy 4 was ok....worth at least one watching if you're a fan
haven't seen Indy IV but as for the Star Wars talk....
Attack of the Clones was decent
Ep. III -what the hell is it even called?- was okay but i only saw it once so i really can't compare it to the others. Phantom sucked ball sweat.

I dl'ed it and watched it once. Prolly never again.
It had a few decent moments but nothing to write home about
Aah, fuck it, I’m just gonna go home, turn on the fuckin’ TV...
Watch the nightly news and drink a beer...
Like I could even change the world, yeah right...
************************************
It was ok. The big problem it had was it lacked a sense of danger. Never at any point did you feel the main characters were in real danger. Never did you, the viewer, get nervous. It didn't build up. Everything that was supposed to be dangerous was minor and goofy.
For instance, in Raiders when the Nazis catch Marian.
In Doom when Indy gets brainwashed.
In Crusade when Indy's father gets shot.
Never at any point during Crystal Skull did I grip my chair and think "oh shit" for the characters.
except for the Star Wars bits! what are you doing, trying to hijack my thread, eh? eh?!
so yeah, I watched the movie last night. like said, it was ok. entertaining..
the stuff at the cafe and the motorcycle chase were cool. I sort of liked the hiding in the fridge thing too, though it was pretty ridiculous.
but the [spoilers!!] vine-swinging, the driving a car to a tree, the aliens.. no wait! interdimensional beings. :rolleyes:
I don't regret watching it, sure kicks High School Musical's arse! haha.
"Don't be faint-hearted, I have a solution! We shall go and commandeer some small craft, then drift at leisure until we happen upon another ideal place for our waterside supper with riparian entertainments."
eMMI.. if you love Indy so much that you want to wear a wool hat to work:D, then you are going to be disappointed! People who like this movie (eg. my mom and my little sister) are generally not the biggest fans of Indy and didn't have any expectations going into it.
If you are like me, and loved the first three movies, then you will wonder why they even made this movie... obviously for the money.:rolleyes: There's no emotion in most of the scenes, and the cgi takes away from the movie instead of adding to it.
It's worth watching, just because it is an Indy film... but don't expect it to be that good.:p
I didn't have much expectations and that did pay off.

That was just for the powers of the cup. That's why the place started falling apart right after the evil Nazi woman tried to bring the cup past the seal.

Surely you just watched it for free, no? There's gotta be some perks to your job. Y'know: to balance out the cobweb/wooly hat combinations.
good heavens! :eek: of course I watched it for free!
lol. and don't mention the cobweb, I was just glad I didn't have to take it down.

Big letdown for me. I know Indiana Jones is supposed to be over the top but this one was ridiculous. Jumping a vehicle off a cliff and landing it on a tree to be lowered into the river?
In Temple of Doom Indy, Short Round and Wille Jump out of a plane and use an inflatable raft in place of a parachute. Then they use that same raft as a sled, to sled down the Himalays. How is that any less over the top then a vehicle going off a cliff?

Raiders was one of the first movies I remember going to see. So I worship it to this day.
No, Crystal Skull is nowhere near as good as the 1st three but I enjoyed it, and my 10 year old loves it, so I guess that is what matters.
