Hi, John. Welcome to The Raven.Johnb02 said:What do you think about the marriage of the two?
I'm on board with you there, Forbidden Eye.Forbidden Eye said:I've been saying for a while they should've replaced Marion/ Mutt with a new Indy girl(preferably a redhead)
Montana Smith said:Getting married means it's the end of the serial.
So in a way Indy marrying Marion was a good thing because it means that it's over and there's no danger of a fifth movie.
But what a way to finish. Not with a bang but a whimper.
Henry W Jones said:I disagree with "the end of the serial" Indiana Jones movies don't particularly need a romantic side to make a new film.
kongisking said:I loved the wedding. It actually got me misty-eyed in the theater, seeing Indy finally find true happiness. This movie could have ended with the words, AND THEY ALL LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER, and it would have worked. I just liked seeing Indy at last become a father and have a family of his own, thus bringing his personal journey full circle. If Indy 5 is made, they'll have a helluva time creating a better ending for the Jones Saga then this.
I'm with the second interpretation, new beginning, deepening of character, and an exploration of a new life with his wife and family. Not sure if that'd make a great movie, but it's a good way to Indy to wind up.kongisking said:The wedding can either be interpreted as one of two things: one, as the definitive curtain on the story of Indiana Jones, as I thought, or it represents a new beginning filled with incredible possibilities as far as deepening Indy's character development, and exploring his relationship with his new family.
I said:The first time I saw Raiders, i didn't like Marion. I don't know why, maybe I wished I was in her position. But after awhile, and especially after seeing Crystal Skull, you realize they are meant to be together, and they want to be together. I find myself smirking during that final scene, knowing this meant new beginnings for someone who has faced a lot of endings. I hope they make an Indy 5, and deal with this new part of their lives.
