He can think whatever he wants. If he wants to destroy every copy of KOTCS ever made, he's certainly allowed to think so. Meanwhile, us few lovers of the film should just keep on singing its praises. After all, who really cares about OUR opinions, right? We're all retards for liking, maybe even loving, the fourth film, right? We're lower than dog**** for even daring to think that KOTCS was, dare I say it, a fun flick? Yep, that's us. I really should start a club for KOTCS lovers called "Retards that loved KOTCS". I might make some new friends. :rolleyes:
i'm in. and i was just wondering, do you know of any clubs for people that liked Captain Ron? because i'm totally in that one too.

Really? I enjoyed it, and the 9-year old nephews I saw it with enjoyed it too. I don't get people who hang out at a forum about movies they hate. Go to a forum of movies you like. You'll be happier.

Aw you beat me too it. What can you say to someone who goes into a thread called "Why does everybody hate Temple of Doom?" and complains (read:trolls) about people explaining why they hate Temple of Doom? Well now he's on a "Crystal Skull hatred knows no bounds” thread whining about (more trolling) how he doesn't get it...that's apparent. You don't GET it.

What I don't get are people who hang out on a thread whose title screams "We don't like ________" and don't get it.

If RA was unclear in any way let me help you to the door, but on the way out take a moment to read the bold and colorful words at the top of the page: The Raider.net. Oh, one more thing, the forum you're "enjoying" is called "The Raven." Why don't you amble over to Club Obi Wan or Arnie’s. You'll be happier there.:rolleyes:

Even our esteemed Attila wasn't safe!

Bear in mind, DeepSixFix, that at Club Obi Wan, you may just have to leave via an upstairs window!

Well, I did my due diligence and this is par for the Deepsixfix course. He's averaging a post every 6 weeks or so, shame they're not conceived more thoughtfully.

They should make an adult version of KotCS. And I don't mean by adding sex scenes (although it might not hurt).

You're a bloody hypocrite. And you just want to make yourself a victim. You're as ill as Matt deMille.

What it comes down to is that you can't stand the differing of opinion. I state mine, I don't attack anyone, not even you, but I state my feelings on the film with conviction.

You come in and argue that we should "treat" KOCKS a certain way. WHAT? IT IS A MOVIE. An inanimate thing. Its panties don't get in a bunch because it's not wearing any.


...actually... maybe it is. Maybe KOCKS is just a great big *****.

Or not because it isn't a living breathing thing with any sort of ****ing emotion. KOCKS is a film and my calling it a piece of **** doesn't affect anyone. And it shouldn't affect you. And getting indignant because I insult a THING, an inanimate, unfeeling object just goes to prove your own insecurities.


Now get the **** over it and get a ****ing life.


KOCKS.


KOCKS.
I don't care if you don't like it anymore. I'm not even talking about the film. I'm talking about posts like your last one that tell me to get a life. That is mean, and no one is impressed and there's no one here to say "BURN!". I cannot believe how you can insult people constanly JUST because they like a film. Like you said, IT'S JUST A FILM! Maybe that hypocrite in you should stop insulting anyone who likes it.

People hang out here because it is an Indiana Jones fan community. Being an Indiana Jones fan does not mandate an enjoyment of every branded piece of **** Lucas makes as a wallet-drain. And discussing the massive disappointment that was the insipid 4th installment, a film that many spent 19 years eagerly anticipating and speculating about, is totally understandable on a message board dedicated to the character they enjoy.
The character you enjoy appears to be 1981 Indiana Jones from Raiders of the Lost Ark only. I enjoyed KOTCS. How could it have been anything but what it was? Harrison Ford is around 70 and they had to bring in a hip young dude to sell it to the average moviegoer who has no connection to Harrison Ford. I get that. I would prefer a movie as great as Raiders. But that will never happen again without a reboot. Only then might we get a "Casino Royale." But it seems many people want a 1981 "Raiders" with a thirty-something Ford, and seen through their ten-year-old eyes again. Never gonna happen.

Sorry you didn't have the cool experience in the theater I did a couple years ago. Why are you still interested in the character? Do you really think an 80-year-old Ford as Indiana Jones will be better? Is that what you are hanging out for?

I didn't insult you, dip****. But I am now. You're utterly ****ing incapable of reading, it seems. I insult the bloody movie. And you take that as a personal affront. Well bloody boohoo. Cry me a goddamn river. Yes, YOU get a life. Because you want to tell me how to behave to a movie. Well **** off with your self-victimizing horse ****. I'll call the movie a piece of **** and horse KOCKS all I want and I don't care if you are offended by it, idiot, because it's a movie. Because it has no bloody soul, and clearly neither do you.


I don't insult people for their taste in film, I insult them, like I am you, because they're ****ing idiots who can't take the fact that others, like myself-- like a good ****ing fraction of the board, DISLIKE THE MOVIE. Idiots like you turn a goddamn movie into their own bloody crusade for some misplaced "equality." This isn't about equality, idiot, it's about two sides of the coin. And we, the flip-side, can talk about your precious movie just as much as you can and you need to get over that goddamn fact.






And deep six, don't tell me what I bloody enjoy. You don't know what I bloody enjoy. Because I dislike one ****ing movie from the franchise, you act all self-righteous to me. You know jack about me, jack about what I enjoy. So **** off.

So, you "don't attack anyone" and yet, here you are saying I'm "ill" when I'm not even a part of this conversation.

And you tell others to "get a ****ing life" and that's NOT an attack?

No, ResidentAlien, YOU are the hypocrite. YOU are the one who is ill. And you are the one who needs to be permanently banned because all you do is try to cause trouble and make The Raven an unpleasant place for anyone else. Try, mind you, though. Try. You don't succeed. Mature and reasoned people see you for what you are.

RA, you know I agree with a lot of what you say, including on the subject of KotCS (your acronym may vary)...but that's a lot of asterisks there. As with many other things - say, for example, Indiana Jones films - more is not necessarily better. And in this case, it's most assuredly worse.

Oh, and for the rest of you: there's really not any further discussion necessary on this unless you learn to not make the conversation about each other.

That's sad. You must be so inundated with lack luster plots, poor acting and new film techniques that you can't believe there's talent out there that could pull it off.

We've come full circle, and Skull embraced what Raiders rebelled against. The possibility exists, the talent is out there the only thing lacking is the will.

Many more Indy films can be made that are the equal to Raiders. Harrison's age presents more potential. It's a matter of how a script is approached and the creativity that filming on a real exotic location inspires.

I don't agree with you, not even a bit.
 
My point speaks for itself.


I'll continue on as I have, that is to say stating my view on a lousy movie.


And I don't give a **** if anyway takes offense to my disliking it. That's their own insecurity.

I've said it before and I will say it again: KotCS would not have been the criticised movie it is today (maybe), except for one little thing - Raiders of the Lost Ark, the movie that launched Indiana Jones. KotCS, because of it's lack of fulfilling it's own potential, represents a decline in the standard of the Indiana Jones franchise, but so do two of the other movies. I don't have unbounded hatred of it, but I do have a lot of disappointment over it.

KOTCS is like the later James Bond movies with Moore--It's different, but OK. It is kind of a parody of Indiana Jones, just the same way the Roger Moore Bonds played like parodies of the original.

KOTCS is the "Moonraker' of the IJ franchise.

That would make KOTCS the equivalent of David Niven's Casino Royale!
Octo*****(kitty) works with the whole nuclear subject matter, View to a Kill well, that would be the audience perspective...
