The Man said:No, it's still May 12, but that's the 21st day of their celebration.
Agent Z said:Haha! I thought maybe they had an invite to Cannes or something....
I'm sure they are working on said invite even harder now, as the emails start flooding in....

The Man said:What a ****-up! Before all this, I'd expected them to have a review by the 19th or 20th. Then we're told the 12th and now it's the 21st. This movie will be the mental-ruination of us all!

I agree they've had some hiccups (they themselves admit to some over enthusiastic mistakes in the past) but generally I trust Empire's reviews over pretty much any other, we must have the same tastes...oki9Sedo said:In any case, while they're interviews and articles are very good, their reviews are not.

But I try not to read them until after I've seen the movie and made up my own mind.

Maybe. I'd definitely give the Ark a 5, and Holy Grail seems right with a 3... but the Sankara Stones are definitely weaker than the Grail. I'd give 'em a 2.The Man said:As for the individual MacGuffins, they rate them out of five...
Ark Of The Covenant: 5
Sankara Stones:3
Holy Grail: 3
Crystal Skull: -2 (Ahh, I jest.)
About fair?
