Now I've been over this time and time again, but there's a huge misconception that comes along with this argument…especially when it seems to be the most cited moment in the entire original trilogy used to defend Crystal Skulls downright cartoon-level silliness. As someone mentioned, the Myth...

See I'd have to respectfully disagree. For me some of the most suspenseful moments were in Crusade - particularly the tank fight and Donovan shooting Henry. You know Indiana isn?t going to die, deep down you just understand this, but Henry?he?s wasn?t guaranteed. In Crystal Skull you don?t have...

Well I too respectfully disagree, but perhaps it's just a cause of what we see in our lives being different. No I wouldn't say review sites are the end-all-be-all of the debate, but I do think they say something. I personally know more Doom fans and Skull haters, but that's me. My life isn't...

Much like Blade Runner, time was good to Temple of Doom. From my personal experience, I rarely ever hear negative about it (as a whole) anymore. In fact I have quite a few friends that consider it their favorite of the films, myself included. While I would never say it's the best Indiana Jones...

I wouldn't go as far as to say it's the best Indiana Jones film, but it's certainly my favorite. I always felt Indy had it worst here, the life and death game was at its peak. The bridge scene still give me chills and there's just something about Mola Ram that reeks awesome.

Now this is not intended as a shot, but from my understanding...not much of what you said is accurate. Please don't take this as the bias ranting of a Doom fanatic either, this is merely what I've come to know and believe to be correct. Temple of Doom did not preform poorly and critically it was...

Well I managed to snag Mola Ram for my birthday, it's looking like I'll be getting some more TOD wave figures for Christmas...but I'm grumpy as all hell. I did some sorting through my Indiana Jones collection, it's mostly all packed away, and I stored very small accessories in the Ark of the...

You’re absolutely right, some of his critics do go absolutely way too far, borderline humorously so, that it’s outright embarrassing. I would say the same for some Lucas defenders too though. Any sort of extremism is very silly really. I can’t deny that when I saw George getting death threats...

Well at least I hope not, but I did get slightly that impression from some people. But in the end, what really matters is to live by that old saying "To each their own," which is a indeed a wonderful way to live. I have a very love-hate relationship with the film, the irony being that some of...

Forgive my constant need to edit. I'm ever the writer, always adding more and more. Well of course no director is flawless, but I don't think that should negate the criticisms either. I’ve really got to disagree on whether or not he justifies such loathing. It could be argued simply that no...

To be blunt, if there’s one man in cinema that deserves the flaming he gets…its George Lucas. At least that’s my perspective. While I do somewhat pity the fact that his classical works have become somewhat overshadowed by his for more controversial contemporary cartoons, what in the end I’d...

I’ve never understood some of these mentalities…and quite frankly, I wouldn’t want to. I place my opinions before my fandom; something I think is only respectable. So when people say “How can you be an Indy fan when you hate Crystal Skull,” I ask…how can’t you be? Begrudgingly there are four...

I’d really say more…but between mine and Rockets post, Viles been utterly defeated. Not that you have to try especially difficult to do that. Bravo! I think, at the end of the day, the best message is to like what you like, dislike what you dislike, and most importantly...don't listen to...

Gosh! How well versed you are...:rolleyes: If you’d actually bother to read my post, you’d clearly see that I blatantly state that everyone should have a right to say whatever they so like and not be frowned upon for it. More power to you, I believe my expression was. That doesn’t mean I’ll...

Hah! Thank you! And I'm pretty big on Tuna salad myself, too. =]
