Indy was always intended as an anti-hero, I dont know why anyone would argue differently. But its an unfair criticism to accuse CS of "moralizing revisionism" and turning Indy into a straight out...
Probably better, yeah but still not right I dont think, that guy has too much of a jock thing going on (which is fine for a young James Kirk). The closest I can think of to be honest is a young Sean...
Yes. However I cant think of a single young actor who wouldnt have been miscast. Doesnt seem to be any young, upcoming Fords or Connerys in Hollywood these days.
Well the US and Britain were certainly carrying out covert paramilitary operations within the USSR during the cold war so we'd probably be a bit naive to think the Russians werent doing the same.
I dont think any of them should have been in it really, there was enough fan-service in the movie to begin with I think. But since they did the father/son thing anyway I would have preferred it if...
I'm sure being baffled is as fairly regular state for someone like you. And I'm no apologist, I need make no apologies to the likes of you for enjoying a movie.
People do, all the time. Though I'd say these days its more a hobby now than something someone could actually do as an occupation. But theres still plenty of objects out there to be found and plenty...
And I find it sad to refer to someone as an "apologist" for liking a film. I make no apologies for enjoying a movie. Nor do I "defend" it. Why would I, I didnt make it and I dont own it. I simply...
Crystal Skull negativity is just reaching ridiculous levels now. Yes, the film had problems. Yes, some things should definitely been done differently and no, its not as good as the others. But in its...
The thing is that many myths and legends are embellishments and exaggerations of something that does have its roots in fact. Im not religious at all, and of course the idea of a boat that has two of...
Didnt Mythbusters find the raft thing "plausible"? It floated down as gently as a feather and their dummy thing didnt have a scratch. I was surprised, but since watching that I like that scene a hell...
Bad taste because its original? Its based on a graphic novel which was very good. A cross between a western and science fiction could make for a great film, as well as a big hit. Add in John Favreau...
Wow, quite a big difference. Makes the film look much more like the originals. Gives the whole thing a totally different tone and feel. Makes me wonder if a lot of the negativity Skull gets is simply...
Indy in the first two films is a rogue-ish, morally shady anti-hero. Someone who is more interested in the adventure of the hunt and his own "fortune and...
Sam Worthington is about the only actor I can imagine playing Indy other than Ford. He has many of the same qualities that Ford had and has a similar look to Ford circa Raiders and so far has been on...
I agree. Nobody really knows except those who were there I guess, but hundreds of child molesters go to jail every day, and the prosecutors pulled every trick in the book including illegal bugging,...
Interesting little tidbit gathered from this video I didnt notice before:

Look at the flag on the Black Pearl. Its flying Blackbeard's...
I actually come to appreciate Schumacher a little more after watching the features and commentary on 'Batman & Robin'. He actually flat out says that the studio told him to make a 2 hour toy...
