Gimme back my crystal skull!

I just saw Indiana Jones 4. It wasn't great, but I didn't hate it!

It probably helped that I was never an Indiana Jones fan to begin with. (No childhood to rape!) It also helps to prepare yourself for wildly implausible shenanigans, inanities and tomfoolery.

I did go in expecting some good old-fashioned movie magic, since I read this on IMDB: "Producer Frank Marshall stated that the film would be shot the same way as the previous three - with stunt men, and using CGI only when necessary." Sadly, the only old-fashioned movie magic I got was that there were actors filmed by a camera. I think that, sooner or later, someone's going to make a movie like this without digital effects, and people are gonna go nuts.

All in all, it's a solid C. Or, if you like, a "meh."

Well, aren't you the lucky one!

watching the trailer, i gather theres only a million "witty" comments on his age:

harrison ford: "im too old for this...", on and on.

Did I just get zung?

What I meant was, Indiana Jones wasn't my thing as a kid. I didn't see Raiders of the Lost Ark until I was maybe fourteen. Seeing as Indiana Jones did not make up any significant percentage of my childhood, the shortcomings of this film do not result in a rape of said childhood. Now, if someone were to make, say, a terrible X-Men or Batman movie, that might constitute a solid childhood raping.

Wait, whuuuuuuuuuutttttttttttt?

my friend adam and i held in the laughter until one particular line towards the end
also: "stalin's poster girl" was a nice touch.
it was dumb as planks and less fun than national treasure 2.
but i hold national treasure 2 in pretty high regard.

I guess i should go shopping for a new avatar.

[Tom Scharpling]

I recommend people see it now.

This will be discussed on Tuesday in depth.

Tom.

haha

...and Tom rarely discusses films he likes.

[Martin Edison]

Gimme back my $9.75 plus gas money to get to there.
That was some of the laziest acting I have ever seen!
Harrison Ford's John Wayne swagger was SO annoying.

I wish I saw it matinee style.

"...using CGI only when necessary."

WHAT?!?! The shadow that Indy was casting on the car was the most obviously CG'd thing I've seen since Star Wars. And that was just in the commercial. I can't wait to see this. I'm going to count all the people that Lucas CG'd sideburns onto.

the CG is all over it, BIG TIME.
not in a good way
look out for flying monkeys.
and fire ants
and someone's eyes explode.
