The people here who really hate it are comparing it to the trilogy. If you compare it as a movie, against other movies that have come out in the past 10 years, it's a good film.

Yes, especially with the indie and exploitation films of the 70s and 80s. ToD wasn't really a bad movie at all. It's a fun popcorn movie. The main reason why it's my least favorite Indy film is because it doesn't take place in enough different locations and I didn't care for the supporting...

Exactly. I think if Indy IV came out in the early 90's, Spielberg would have made it less tounge-in-cheek. Since then, he's made so many "serious" movies that I don't really see him making another Indy movie with the same seriousness as Raiders.

Nope, it bombed in the reviews. There's more crying by the SITC fangirls than the fanboys here.

I stopped reading your posts when I realized you grouped South Park with all that crap. Sorry, but I want to watch something that's ENTERTAINING. I don't find family-friendly "Barney and Friends" type shows that sugarcoat how the world works to be entertaining.

Why not make Indiana Jones himself the MacGruffin? He could be chased around by neo-Nazis wanting knowledge that he has on an artifact, such as the Ark or something. Then maybe Mutt can come in to help him.

Anyone who has time to troll around on a message board needs to find a better job, a girlfriend, or a hobby.

Sallah should have been in place instead of Mac, with Sallah remaining a good guy. Indy was digging in Mexico when he was picked up by the Soviets so it would have made sense for him to use Sallah down there.

Oh really, when did you poll all of the casual fans? Sounds to me like you're just trying to project your opinion onto people you haven't even talked to at all. While you're here *****ing about the movie, I'm out looking at new fedoras.

I think if you compare it to the originals, it seems like it sucks, but when you treat it as a movie by itself, compared to other movies in the past 10 years, it's not that bad at all.

Oh please, you can go watch the original trilogy on DVD and they have not been altered in any way.

So we should censor the fact that Indiana Jones is from America? What else did you expect him to do during WW2?

Tom Selleck probably would have been the logical choice after Harrison Ford. I can't think of anyone else besides those two.

That's a real stretch.

I prefer it over ToD. I thought that ToD was trying too hard to be a serial; i.e. it didn't just borrow serial motifs like Raiders did.

I agree 100%. I wanted to watch the original trilogy after seeing the movie last night. The SW prequels just sucked.

Yeah, he's turning into his father in a way. I think a lot of it is because most of the people he knows now are his academia contacts. It's more character driven than the previous films. I'm just happy that the film put Indiana Jones back into pop culture and there's all sorts of books out...

Who cares? I was watching a movie, not an archaeological documentary. There's also no proof that the Holy Grail rests in a hidden canyon in Turkey guarded by a 500-year-old knight. I didn't think the overall plot was that different than spirits coming out of the ark, magical stones allowing a...

That was a badass scene. In all honestly though, I feel like KOTCS is closer to Raiders and the Last Crusade than the Temple of Doom is. For one thing, ToD occurred pretty much all in one location. I like it more when Indy travels a bit more. Not an appropriate direction? Archaelogy is...

Like I said, divine protection. If ANYONE could survive a nuclear blast, it has to be Indiana Jones.
