Of course, I probably shouldn't talk, being as I own a lord of the rings version of "Risk."

Seriously, you could rant about that for an HOUR, but it's better than 99% of the movies out there? And what happens when you see a movie that's actually BAD? Spontaneous combustion?!?

I dont understand what people are knocking this for

There have been many imitations of Indy over the years, but bnone of them have the right mix of humour, action and cool artifacts.

I thought the trailer was awesome, I dont think it gave too much away, its just a teaser after all. But thought it looked cool.

How the fuck is he swingin about like spiderman, thats tota bullshit, watch it again, its just the same as the previous 3 movies, excpet he ficks up and falls in the truck behind...Which is typical Indy humour...Hes just a normal guys who gets lucky half the time, and does something cool every now and again.

This will be along with TDK, the only 2 films I go and see at cinemas this year, never went to any last year. This is what I want to see, good shit like this being made, and not new directors who have no concept or art, timing or antyhing to ake anything good, they just churn out standard hollywood studio bullshit and market the fuck out of it.

Plus when you hear that fucking music, it sends shivers up my spine, best movie theme tune...Everrrrr.

Oh and all Lucas came up with was the Crystal Skull idea (The McGuffin), other people write scripts and this was only one that Ford, Lucas and Spielberg all liked in years, so are they all wrong?

Dont bash it till you have seen it.

You yourself said that KOTCS would be better than "99% of what Hollywood has been putting out for the last 15 years". And you STILL find a way to bitch about Spielberg?

Dude, grow the fuck up.

As for Lucas also going on record that HE pushed and pushed for this Crystal SKulls/aliens angle for Indy IV against the repeated refusal of Speilberg, Ford, and others, well - that speaks for itself.

I suppose one could argue that Luca$ might not be totally off his rocker just because those two guys were against the idea. I mean, look at what Ford's done in the past 10+ years. And Speilberg. Have their filmmaking decisions been made with consistent wisdom (coughK19Widowmakercough)?

Still, I thin it's a bad sign when everyone involves acknowledges they didn't really like the idea, but eventualyl just gave in when Luca$ wore them down enough. It isn't like they didn't want to do it b/c it was too avant garde. It's because they didn't like the premise/macguffin. shivers the timbers, don't it?
