I saw the end of the comic book for indy 4.. it certainly make sense to me.. one of the rules in scriptwriting is that the hero is wanting something. we see that indy lost both his father and his friend brody. he is probably wishing that he has a family. he gets one at the end of the movie. for me.. that works. besides him and marion were made for each other anyways.. you also got that. I have no problem that mutt is his son. its probably better that way.

If you don't like Indy or you think the new movie will suck, then fine. But why spend your time posting on an Indy fan forum unless you just derive pleasure from trying to ruin the fun for everyone else?
How noble that you'll continue to defend anti-Lucas posters when you yourself are an anti-Lucas poster! (But in all seriousness, I do share your misgivings about Lucas.)Jndy said:Until the Raven changes posting guidelines to "Must love Lucas," I will continue to defend anti-Lucas posters.
The guy's insane. Feces-smearing insane. Talks-to-the-radio insane. Casting-Hayden-Christensen-as-Darth-Vader-what-the-hell insane. Yet I still think that Indy 4 will be pretty good as long as Spielberg/Koepp have influence.

For the record, I don't expect Indy 4 to be a great film. I expect it to be pretty much like the first 3, and since I love Indy, I'll love the movie.
I think critics of the movie are holding it up to an impossible standard. If TOD came out today, it would get ROASTED by the critics. I watched it the other day, and objectively, it's just a ridiculous movie. Pretty much all of Willie's lines are cringe-inducing (and it's not Kate Capshaw's fault).
I don't blame you for being disillusioned with Lucas. He really just needed someone to sit him down and say, "No, you are not going to cast an 8-year-old as Darth Vader, and Jar-Jar Binks will never exist outside your imagination." Hopefully Spielberg has provided the necessary restraint for this film. I hope you'll enjoy it, and I'm sorry if I was too hard on you.Agent Spalko said:I agree, TOD is my least favorite but I still don't hate it. KOTCS may disappoint on many levels and may end up being the worst of them all but I still won't hate it. Now that I know what will disappoint me I can just watch the film for what it is. Better to go in knowing what to expect. I read the script to Episode I 2 months before it came out and thought it was awful but I put my faith in Lucas because I knew writing wasn't his strength and that somehow he would work his magic. Now I know better.

Sure, Lucas had the right to make whatever movie he wanted, but by your logic, every single movie ever made is immune from criticism because the filmmaker has the right to do whatever he wants.tnswman said:Why did he need someone to sit him down and correct HIS VISION? He allowed us to see the movies as HE SAW them! it is his right to do so and None of our D@mn business! that's the attitude that gets me...You take it sooo personal when in reality, You don't matter!

I see I'm simultaneously being criticized for being a Lucas-hater and a Lucas-lover. The truth is somewhere in between. I love Indy, and I'm grateful to Lucas for inventing him. I love the original Star Wars and I like the prequels, too, but I still think Jar-Jar sucks and that Anakin as an 8-year-old was ridiculous. I don't think I'm being unreasonable.
I agree with that. I'm glad Lucas made the prequels, because I'm a Star Wars fan. And I think it's stupid when people think that a sequel (or prequel) someone ruins the original. But that doesn't mean I'm a fan of every decision Lucas makes.Raiders112390 said:Crticism is fine, and is awesome, and is a good means of expression but it's when people cry that Lucas is ''evil'', that he is ''insane'' and that he ''raped my childhood'' or that somehow the prequels ruin the originals and make the originals crap that it borders on histrionic behavior and ridiculousness.
