Badass INDY IV TV spot Whips The Internets Into Shape!

Double Sweet by Flaggg	Mar 29th, 2008 10:28:27 PM
Loved it.
Triple Sweet? by mvckalel	Mar 29th, 2008 10:29:27 PM
Nice..
Damn enter button... by blindambition238	Mar 29th, 2008 10:30:37 PM
... anyways this isn't a bad teaser but its still lacking that je ne sais quoi the other summer blockbuster trailers, well ok maybe just Iron Man and Batman, have. Any word on when we'll see a full trailer? Be nice to get some plot points to give this thing some good old fashion mystery.

anything lower quality? by messi	Mar 29th, 2008 10:30:49 PM
ehh?
Same old by Urushihara	Mar 29th, 2008 10:30:51 PM
Hyperbole from Harry. Chemistry? Give me a break. Same as the trailer except with less scenes and the same premature climaxing of the theme tune. This is gonna be a bad movie.
I don't see anything. by Osmosis Jones	Mar 29th, 2008 10:31:31 PM
YouTube link, anyone?
Well by ed2ward	Mar 29th, 2008 10:32:24 PM
Timing is better. They cut out the stupid line when he swings into the truck. That actually looked like a preview for a movie I want to see that might live up to the joy of Raiders of the Lost Ark rather than a not-very-promising sequel to the abysmal Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. If Lucas weren't involved this would be my top for the summer. With him involved it doesn't even make top five.
um by Silverglade	Mar 29th, 2008 10:33:35 PM
That is the same trailer except for the shadow of the fedora cap part.. wth?
? by i_am_PETER_VENKMAN	Mar 29th, 2008 10:33:41 PM
What's different about this one? More Shia? Meh.
Is there another link, or a lower quality version? by Jesus of Suburbia	Mar 29th, 2008 10:33:46 PM
Can't see the trailer if it breaches the far edges of my browser, pushing the damn "play" button out of reach.
Ah come one... by Shaw	Mar 29th, 2008 10:33:48 PM
you gotta be excited about this. just let the nostalgia wash over you
Yes, nice by mvckalel	Mar 29th, 2008 10:33:49 PM
Agreed, Ford and LeBeouf have a good chemistry...but I still don't like the overuse of CGI...
I mean come ON by Shaw	Mar 29th, 2008 10:34:20 PM
stupid rum
Chemistry: No by HappyCultist	Mar 29th, 2008 10:35:44 PM

CGI by Shaw	Mar 29th, 2008 10:36:30 PM
yeah, why do they need all the cgi? the more practical the better, especially for indy. the overuse of the effects may wrench it out of line with the other 3.
shorter trailer = better trailer? by Rupee88	Mar 29th, 2008 10:37:53 PM
that one seemed half as long as the first one. Well the first two Raiders sequel were kinda sucky so I'm sure this one will be great...makes sense. Sure worked for SW Phantom Menace.
wow...that was short. by Mike_D	Mar 29th, 2008 10:39:04 PM
it is a tv spot?
what's so different about this one? by Rupee88	Mar 29th, 2008 10:39:42 PM
maybe the Indy ads on AICN now? or maybe not..
Nostalgia? by ed2ward	Mar 29th, 2008 10:40:18 PM
The poster gives me chills out of nostalgia. The first preview made me choke on memories of something I hate. See - I love Raiders, like a lot of Temple of Doom, and completely and utterly despise Last Crusade. The first cut of the preview made too many 'Last Crusade' bells go off in my head and, consequently, really dialed down my interest in the movie. This preview has me cautiously optimistic again, but far, far, far from excited.
Trailer for people with girly computers: by blindambition238	Mar 29th, 2008 10:40:29 PM
just go to indianajones.com, the trailer/ tv spot is embedded into the home page.
Whaaat? by BDKiwi	Mar 29th, 2008 10:43:04 PM
Are you guys kidding me? That teaser smoked. Damn near breaks my heart. I have absolutely no faith in this movie; which is right where I need to be in order be able to enjoy it. Still rooting for it but it feels Lucas-y to me, which disapoints the shit out of me. Ah well... not really going to affect me either way. ...which is sad.
That ain't a trailer, Harry..... by Toby Wan	Mar 29th, 2008 10:43:53 PM
That is a TV spot! It even says it in the description when you save to the hard drive. That being said, thanks for the heads up, and if anyone thinks this film isn't gonna rock your socks off........well, you can kiss Shia's ass. I certainly don't want to.
Geez he looks old by theBigE	Mar 29th, 2008 10:47:54 PM
I'd like to remember Indy in the 80's. He sure reminds me of my grandpa now.
Pretty much the same scenes. by GibsonUSA	Mar 29th, 2008 10:49:26 PM

what the hell by theBigWasted	Mar 29th, 2008 10:50:49 PM
is with the cut at the into. "assh this really is a dead end" what's he saying there? i watched it three times and still don't know. also how is indy suddenly able to do gymnastics? is he a jedi all of a sudden? my heart want to love this but my brain won't let me.
One, repeat one, new scene. by jimmay	Mar 29th, 2008 10:51:23 PM
The first part with Shia and Jones is the only new footage shown.
One new scene, better music, better editing, too short by Orionsangels	Mar 29th, 2008 10:53:11 PM
Still got me excited
fuck you...it's almost Saturday/midnight and that's the shit you by future help	Mar 29th, 2008 10:53:13 PM

and that's the shit you throw us for cool news? by future help	Mar 29th, 2008 10:54:15 PM
that's no trailer.
TV Teaser, OK? by mvckalel	Mar 29th, 2008 10:58:25 PM
So, it's a TV Spot, but a great one, fast, with one (maybe two?) new scenes...it's Indy mate!!
There's no hope for you fuckers by I Dunno	Mar 29th, 2008 10:58:47 PM
IF you can't get excited about an Indiana fucking Jones movie then get something else to be a geek over because it aint movies. And if I hear "money grab" one more time I'm going to punch a baby in the throat. These are 60 year old billionaires. They're not going to waste their few remaining years on something they don't love for a few extra dollars they'll never live to spend. Fucking cynical twats,
Seriously when was the last great 'Berg flick? by performingmonkey	Mar 29th, 2008 10:59:32 PM
I'm talking really great. Answers on a postcard please. He's just coasted since 1993. This will be Indy but with all the balls removed, even moreso than Last Crusade. Although I recently watched Temple and thought it was poor. It's the follow-up to Raiders in name only.
Munich was probably his most mature and fully realized. by jimmay	Mar 29th, 2008 11:04:31 PM
And that was what, 2 years ago?
Last Great Berg flick? by blindambition238	Mar 29th, 2008 11:05:32 PM
Hmmm... I'd say Saving Private Ryan since aside from being a pretty good movie, was significant enough to influence the way war movies have been made in the past decade or so.
Yeah by dmatheny	Mar 29th, 2008 11:08:22 PM
A way better trailer, I was so exited for this movie. I saw the first trailer and thought it sucked. This one is better. I wish they didn't use so much CGI. We'll see.
Great Spielberg films since Schindler's List: by Osmosis Jones	Mar 29th, 2008 11:11:43 PM
Saving Private Ryan, Minority Report, Catch Me If You Can, WOTW, Munich. And A.I. & Amistad are pretty damn good.
re: I Dunno by Rupee88	Mar 29th, 2008 11:12:02 PM
you don't get to be a 60 billionaire in the first place without being money hungry to an extreme extent. Do you think Spielberg's War of the Worlds was an artistic pursuit?
Sucks to have a girly computer, & CG rant by half vader	Mar 29th, 2008 11:12:07 PM
I want HIGHER rez, dagnabbit! 480 and 720 on the Indy site, but no love for 1080? Bah. Shaw, Spielberg has been fighting since the start to have this shot on film and use practical effects wherever possible (which makes the lousy CG cliff fight even weirder). He's not going down easy. I'd love to be ther for the fights with Lucas! And MCVkalel, where was the "overuse" beside the crappy overhead of the trucks? If you're talking the following reaction shots, that's just obvious rear-projection (whether or not it was done with blue/greenscreen) and is entirely in keeping with both the old Indy films and the old films they were based on. I actually like the effects in the warehouse with Indy swinging because bar the initial shot (which even there had an appropriate cg whip) you can see it's Harrison instead of going to the obvious rear or silhouetted shot of a stuntie. The flow and angles of the shots fit with the main-unit-type stuff. I think bias either way is moronic. If you can use old school effects to achieve your goal, brilliant. If CG makes more sense, go for it. Grizzled stick-in-the-muds and idiot fanboys, and likewise technogeeks are all as stupid as each other when it comes to their warped points of view and failure to look at the problem from all sides, practical AND creative. How can you trust someone with no objectivity? Fingers crossed hard for this one! Sorry for the rant, had to vent (why we love the site).
Last Great Spielberg Flick? by ed2ward	Mar 29th, 2008 11:13:15 PM
Probably 'Catch Me If You Can'. Before that 'Saving Private Ryan'. Last FLAWLESS movie was 'Empire of the Sun'. Minority Report was pretty danged good. Even A.I. and War of the Worlds had some fantastic elements for all of their flaws. Closest thing to an utterly worthless movie by Spielberg I've ever seen is 'Last Crusade'. Worst element in his filmography in my opinion. Partially because it's just honestly that bad, and partially because it takes a giant dump on one of my favorite films of all time (Raiders).

It's the same damn thing with a small sequence tacked onto the beginning. I prefer the other; at least we get a silhouette shot.

Doesn't a teaser usually come BEFORE the main one? by TheSeeker7	Mar 29th, 2008 11:40:49 PM
Seriously, Harry, you had me totally psyched while DL'ing that, then it's like you punched me in my junk. Not only 30 seconds, but then having about 85% of the same footage? The damn thing's less than two months away, when are we getting another full length preview?
And by the way. Last Spielberg Masterpiece was his last movie by Proman1984	Mar 29th, 2008 11:43:09 PM
That being "Munich". I also believe that "A.I." is the best movie of all time (or at least one of them). "Minority Report" was the best movie of 2002.
of course movies are made to make money, Xiphos by I Dunno	Mar 29th, 2008 11:44:27 PM
but "money grab" in the context that these people are talking about is crassly going through the motions to make a movie they know will make a buck with no real love for what they're doing and that's not the vibe I'm getting here. If that were the case, this movie would have been made 15 years ago and there's probably be at least 2 more since then and everyone would be a lot richer than they are. Instead it took 10 years to find a script they all liked and they genuinely seem enthusiastic about the project. But continue with your negative opinions everyone, that seems to be all you're capable of anyway.
Xiphos by Rupee88	Mar 29th, 2008 11:45:13 PM
you are a retard. A "money grab" is about motive and priorities and lack of passion and artistic goals. Of course most movies suck and are just made for a quick buck. Some are made for nobler reasons and this is not one of those. And Spielberg peaked with ET and it has been a long slide since then...punctuated with some great stuff but still downhill. Lucas peaked in '77 (obviously).
It's the music... by viola123	Mar 29th, 2008 11:46:05 PM
It was a good trailer/teaser, but I think it's the music that makes it. I think also, because we've seen the first trailer, some of the missing pieces are still "there," like when Indiana is swinging back into the truck. I might watch this.

EXACTLY, Xiphos. And once in a while by gotilk	Mar 30th, 2008 12:01:36 AM
we get to see greatness as a result. If it's made by a studio, it's a money grab. Not a damned thing wrong with it. You wanna see huge exploding mechanical spiders and gigantic crowds slipping off the deck of a giant ship.. guess what? Someone is gonna get paid. And what the other guy said was right, too. These guys aren't getting any younger, and they can't be much richer. They did this one because they love it AND they knew it would be a success. Both damned good reasons to make a flick. If it's not clear to anyone yet that Spielberg makes films because he loves films, go watch Munich again, or Empire of the Sun. Do you think anyone, at any point, thought those two would be blockbusters? No. But they knew they'd make their money back and a little more. If they didn't think that, those films would not exist and we'd be watching ET 3 by now or Close Encounters of the 6th Kind:The Rapture(DTV).

Munich was great by HoichiTheEarless	Mar 30th, 2008 12:04:13 AM
That being said, I don't think Spielberg has really nailed a popcorn film since E.T. Minority Report is probably the closest. I'm not that optimistic, but I'll be there in the theater seeing it pretty much no matter what.
Damn, expectations now soaring skyward... by RandySavage	Mar 30th, 2008 12:10:32 AM
Ford WAS Indy in those two "C'mon, genius" seconds of footage. The twinkle in the his eye was back for the first time since 1989. Last Crusade is my favorite of the Indy films... maybe because it was the first one I saw in theaters. I can't understand the dislike for it on this board.
I'm so cold... I see Indy... he's glorious! by thebearovingian	Mar 30th, 2008 12:12:56 AM
For a 30 second spot it'll have to do. For now.
Minority Report sucked! by thebearovingian	Mar 30th, 2008 12:21:26 AM
A.I. sucked! On the flip side, it's ludicrous to say that Spielberg hasn't made some very good films since '93! Saving Private Ryan alone should end that argument.

LOVED WAR OF THE WORLDS by BringingSexyBack	Mar 30th, 2008 12:24:58 AM
It had some faults in hindsight, but you can't tell me it wasn't a great movie upon first viewing. And great follow-up with Munich all in the same year.

And the bad CGI just keeps on comin by LargoJr	Mar 30th, 2008 12:35:14 AM

I understand the SWINGING now! by moto	Mar 30th, 2008 12:38:50 AM
The one problem I originally had with the first trailer was when Indy was swinging FORWARD and then they suddenly cut to him swinging back... followed by him crashing into the cab of the truck (and saying that much loved one liner). BUT NOW, after watching this one I see that when he was swinging forward, he timed it wrong, he then lost momentum as his target drove away, and was forced backwards into that truck! I GET that scene now and I GET that line "Damn I thought that was closer". Am I the only one who missed this? I just thought it was a weird cut from one action swing to a totally different other one going the other direction. it's all one seamless sequence and thus plays pretty well.
Conspiracy... Lucas is not the head writer by moto	Mar 30th, 2008 12:42:30 AM
He came up with the concept outline. One that had about four major writers take a lick at it before the final version was written and agreed upon by Ford, Spielberg, and Lucas. Which is to say that yeah, he came up with the overall concept of the story, but the various plot points, pacing, structure, and dialog are handled by the screenwriter.

Hi voice sounds bad, retirement home kinda bad. The girl bad guy looks... well, bad, cheesy, ridiculous. She wouldn't last 1mn in the old days, Indy would have kicked her and end of story (she looks like Temple of Doom girly bad). Marion obviously had a facelift. Shia might be the only watchable thing in this flick.
No. by AllieJamison	Mar 30th, 2008 01:05:39 AM
I don't get it. I mean...if these trailers were any good I would watch them and just fall in love with what I see. (You normally don't get a chance to replay a tv-spot a tousand times - until you like it) Instead, yet again, I watch this shit and just get scared that the footage on May 22nd will be as painful to watch as the stuff in the trailer. This new bit in the beginning is obviously two (or three) scenes edited together, and I've got the feeling that they originally are much funnier than that really weird looking little sequence in the tv-spot. And I still believe that the first trailer was too action packed. Maybe it has to be this way not to give anything away, what the fuck do I know.. It's good not to see the "Damn. Thought that was closer." anywhere around this time though.
I hate munich by bullet3	Mar 30th, 2008 01:11:51 AM
I think its one of the most over-rated movies I've ever sat through. Terrible pacing, unbelievable characters(if mossad agents were that incompetent Israel would've been taken over a long time ago), strange symbolism, and a really predictable and simple message. I would say Spielberg's best from the last couple years were minority report, saving private ryan, and maybe jurassic park.
And this teaser is pretty good by bullet3	Mar 30th, 2008 01:13:36 AM
I'd be extremly excited if there weren't already an insane amount of cool looking movies (iron-man, dark knight) coming out.

1080p - 720p - 480p & Flash versions online by CeejayNightwing	Mar 30th, 2008 02:27:42 AM

THESE ARE THE FACTS - CGI looks better than any other effect techinque, period! If a reuirement for the movie cannot be staged or built then just like in the old days the film makers use SFX and since nothing can recreate reality as well as CGI then expect it to be used. We are living in a high definition world ladies 720 & 1080p exposes special FX pretty badly when they are old school matte paintings, models and animatronics. The photo realism of CGI and its ability to generate images with high resolution so they hold up when composed with live action is simply incomparable. The old Indy films used a lot of old style glass matte paintings, these were always a still & 2 dimensional. You simply can't go back to doing that when you have the ability to create lifelike 3D CGI mattes. There are times we old folk simply have to leave nostalgia for old effects back where they belong and realize the world moves forward not backward. There is no such thing of an overuse of CGI, these are FX movies and if there is an FX technique that can do the job better than CGI then they'd use it.

I know this is gonna get me into trouble... by BadMrWonka	Mar 30th, 2008 02:36:32 AM
but I just don't see how this can be bad... I know there might be a few moments where you roll your eyes, but all in all, this isn't a bastardized reboot just for the money like some franchises have done. it's the original people making a new installment just because they really love these characters and these stories. and it's gonna be an Indiana Jones movie, with all the fun shit that comes with that. honestly, one of you haters, list for me all the things you think could go wrong with this? does Cate Blanchett EVER do anything wrong? Shia, for all the hate he gets in the talkbacks, is at the VERY least passable. and I think he was the only thing that made me chuckle in Transformers (see my review on here for how much I thought it sucked cucumbers), Harrison is old, but you know they'll riff on it, and he can still swing a whip, Marion is back, cliff chase sequences, Indy musical scores...it's all there! this is one instance where it's all done right, and we should get ready with our 9 bucks and make it the blockbuster it should be. if not, then what good is it having these exciting memories from childhood? as they systematically butcher every important and meaningful intellectual property from when you were a kid, and your imagination was running wild, isn't it all the more important to support someone doing it right? this is Indiana Fucking Jones, at your service, and he's got my money on opening night... and I'll tip my hat to all you hating sumbitches waiting in line, still grumbling, as I make my way with my mental boner right to the 15th row, dead center. you know you're gonna be there anyway. you just like to hate. like the old people complaining about everything at the early bird special. you're still there. you still pay, you still eat, you still get dressed up. shut up and enjoy your garlic mashed potatoes. I know I'm enjoying mine...

I was a little bit disappointed with the editing of the original online trailer, it felt like the opportunity had been missed to re-introduce Indy in a bit-by-bit epic way. But this trailer, wow, it's really an Indiana Jones movie! Fuck! Quite excited about this movie to be honest.

CHUD's Devin is right about you fanboys. Read this piece and recognize your sad selves in his description: http://tinyurl.com/2jgb9m Sound criticism is one thing, but the arguments coming from mouth-breathers like Rupee88 is simply cheap, cynical, baseless garbage designed to - dare I say it? - cash in on online controversy. They hope to increase their AICN talkback cred by stating something "bold" and "incisive" and "clever", such as: "Spielberg peaked with E.T." Seriously, just shut the fuck up. You're nothing but a bunch of joyless, cinephobic, maladjusted assholes.

Doc Pazuzu by Bobo_Vision	Mar 30th, 2008 07:59:20 AM
I agree that there is an overly cynical mentality with some talkbackers, and that it is meant to separate them from the rest, but only makes them seem like a douche. But at the same time, what is just as annoying are the ones who cream their shorts at anything and everything simply because they are suffering from a lifetime case of blueballs. So one extreme is meant to counterbalance the other. When things even out in the middle, talkbacks will become a more pleasant place.
Bobo_Vision by DocPazuzu	Mar 30th, 2008 08:07:58 AM
I don't believe for one minute that asstards like Rupee88 are trying to "counterbalance" anything. They're far too self-centered for that. I still contend that at this stage being enthusiastic (even cautiously) about the project speaks volumes about a person just as much as someone who is a hater. The enthusiasts generally have more substance to their arguments while the haters seem to be pulling things out of their asses.
"Peaked at E.T."??? You pieces of gelatinous filth by Behemoth	Mar 30th, 2008 08:23:50 AM
Know-nothing, enjoy nothing, soulless, bloodless, talking flesh blobs. Go leap in front of a space shuttle. Spielberg is, was, and continues to be one of the best directors of all time, with incredible range. "Color Purple"?? "Raiders"?? "A.I."?? "Schindler's List"??? (Yes, I said "A.I.", one of the most woefully undervalued films of the last decade - an incredibly moving piece of ART). Again, may all you haters and cynical pieces of crud who accomplish zilch in this life choke on a gargantuan tankard of taint sweat.
Geek Rumble by Mister Man	Mar 30th, 2008 08:37:01 AM
Geeks seem to settle for being one, of two, extremes - Angry Geek and Gushing Geek. Then, there's that minority of Middle Geek. I'm not sure which is worse/better. Well, actually, yes I am. I happened to be in Austin at the time of "The Mist" screening. I was forced to stand in line for 90 minutes, and it was definitely a Gushing Geek crowd. It was excruciating. The wringing of hands, the giggling, the pitiful proclamations of what "Frank" or "Stephen" has thought/said/done. After five minutes, my non-industry friend inquired, "Aren't these the people we targeted with the "dodge" ball, in gym class?" While I was happy to have some quiet time for two hours, while the movie ran (hated it, by the way), the dreaded Q&A soon followed. "Volcanic" gushing can only describe the response from most of the crowd. I think half of the audience wanted to climb on stage, and give Darabont a BJ. I would have killed, to experience some Angry Geek interaction. It would have neutralized the ickiness. However, I assume most Angry Geeks hide behind their computer screens. I, for one, would pay to see a Geek Rumble. Put 'em in the ring with their UnderRoos and plastic light sabers, and let 'em slap each other down. But have a security screening at the door - we know the results when some Angry Geeks get their sweaty little hands on a gun.

BraneRobot by kwisatzhaderach	Mar 30th, 2008 08:55:07 AM
You lost all crediility when you said Spielberg has only made three watchable movies. You think Close Encounters is unwatchable? You think Minority Report is a total piece of senseless shit? Wow. I can only guess your fave films are stuff like Spiderman and Pirates of the Carribean. BTW Spielberg didn't produce The Island.
You know what else sucked! by rbatty024	Mar 30th, 2008 08:56:41 AM
Godfather. Complete crap. Eight and a Half. Shit. The Seventh Seal. God, I could have made that film in a fucking weekend while sitting on the can. Wizard of Oz. Didn't those fuckers ever hear of CGI? Citizen Kane. That fat fuck Orson Welles didn't know what he was doing. Don't ask me why these standard bearers of film suck, just trust my opinion. They do.

You all make me want to scream. by Rando Calrisian	Mar 30th, 2008 09:53:12 AM
There is a big difference between film criticism and being an AICN talkbacker. What 95% of you do on these boards is not criticism. You show yourselves incapable of making intellectual remarks any time you use the term "fucktard". It amazes me how many people come to this site to trash movies. To me, movies are there to enjoy. So many of you just seem to WANT to be unhappy. OK, I get it - the Prequels weren't the second comming like everyone hoped... get fucking over it. They were still damn entertaining movies and Indy 4 will also be entertaining. Isn't that why we go to the movies? If you are going to this movie to be jaded and bitter - I think I speak for everyone when I say - Stay the Fuck HOME. And for Gods sakes, lets stop bashing a movie that none of us has seen. We've gotten about 90 seconds of footage, and about 10 stills. It's not enough to judge the entire film. A new Indy movie comes out in less than 2 months and it will almost all be un-spoiled by 8 different trailers over the last 10 months. Star Trek anyone? We already ahve a teaser for a film that is more than a year away. And for one, I will trust Speilberg and Lucas with my movie money over damn near anyone else. And here's 10 reasons why... Jaws Close Encounters of the Third Kind Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back E.T. Raiders of the Lost Ark American Graffiti Jurassic Park Empire of the Sun Schindler's List Saving Private Ryan And I could add 30 other great films that were directed and produced by these two guys. You might not like everything they have done, but they have been more consistent than nearly any other film makers in the history of cinema. Show some respect. If they want to have some fun with a character they love - sit back with your popcorn... watch the movie... and shut up!

Loving the debates isn't the same as hating some of the participants, as if you didn't know. Again, you feign ignorance in order to score cheap points. I believe I mentioned Devin's fanboy piece once before -- in a talkback attached to an article in which the piece itself came up, you insufferable cock-roller. By the way, keep on flattering yourself by telling folks that we have "an unspoken agreement" not to talk to each other, because that, son, is high comedy indeed. Go on, post something "clever" about how much my posts make you "yawn". Ass.

Think about what sucked about the first trailer. "Damn I thought that was closer." Light-hearted, "humorous" one-liners, that are suppossed to lighten the mood on what is suppossed to be a dire situation. I think it was something that worked extremely well in the 80s and was always delivered extremely well by harrison ford. Well here we are in 2008 and I can't even remember the last time I felt comfortable listening to a "humorous" one-liner in an action or adventure or even scifi movie. One-liners have absolutely ruined some movies for me. For me it was probably transformers. There are countless others including anything with will smith and anything with ahnold post terminator 2. Maybe we don't need those cheesy one-liners anymore.. it doesnt make me laugh and only takes me out of the movie. I feel like the minority when i say this considering how many people loved transformers and most will smith movies. Anyone else feel like I do?

I guess I'm a Dick. Even the movies you listed have moments of greatness in them. Try watching any of those films then watch The Mummy remake. However, I will agree The Lost World has one of the worst moments in Spielberg cinematic history - Gymnastic girl saves the day. That was bad. I have my fingers crossed too - I just hate that people judge movies before seeing them. It seems people want to convince themselves this movie will suck so they are pleasantly surprised if and when it doesn't. and by your definition of talkbackers... you must be one of those too. Choose wisely.

2/3rds or A.I. are good, the last 1/3rd was terrible by performingmonkey	Mar 30th, 2008 10:27:23 AM
Minority Report would have been a lot better if the running time was cut down. The 'Berg didn't really know what kind of movie he was aiming for with Minority Report OR A.I. Maybe A.I. is a masterpiece of weirdness. Private Ryan was also overlong. Same goes for The Lost World, which needed the Rex-in-San-Diego part like a hole in the head (either that or we should have had 2 hours of solid dinos-in-America action! Just stop making these tacked on final acts!!). War Of The Worlds went the other way, it was too short!!! A couple of excellent set pieces don't make up for how lame the movie is from the part where they're in Time Robbins's basement onwards. Cruise's son going missing and then miraculously appearing at the end in the magical land of Boston where no aliens go was so SO bad.

It's not Spielberg, Lucas or Ford you should be concered about by HoichiTheEarless	Mar 30th, 2008 10:56:34 AM
It's the one name that hasn't been mentioned yet in this talk back. David Koepp. Call me a cynical whiny talk backer if you want, but the man has proven he can drag down even a film maker as gifted as Spielberg. And Spielberg, unfortunately, while he's still got a sharp cinematic sensibility, does not always have good judgment in scripts. I know WOTW has it's supporters but there's no way it and the Jurassic Park films can hold a candle to Jaws, Close Encounters, Raiders, et. al. Koepp's involvement can only be seen as a bad omen for this film. He's a cookie cutter Syd Field devotee, he's an illustration of what's wrong with Hollywood.

Curious... by Rando Calrisian	Mar 30th, 2008 11:18:03 AM
Since this is supposed to be a site about film discussion rather than name calling... I just watched No Country For Old Men last night, and while this has nothing to do with Indy, it does have something to do with endings that don't live up to the rest of the movie. This was our "best picture" film this year, and I loved most of it, but was disapointed by the ending. I agree that Spielberg's endings haven't paid off in his last few films, and I think that's one reason people are still sceptical about this Indy film. Am I alone in being let down by NCFOM ending? I mean, I understand the ending, I just didn't feel the payoff for the rest of an awesome movie. What films in the past few years had a truly great ending like Raiders of The Loast Ark, or Close Encounters? Good endings seem few and far between in these days of remakes and sequels.

OMG TITLE SPAMMERS RUINED THIS TALKBACK!!! by LaserPants	Mar 30th, 2008 11:33:15 AM
'Cause before they showed up it was really going somewhere special. Yeah, some deep hidden truths of this 20+ year old film franchise were about to be revealed, some profound connection to the font of all human experience, a linguistic dip into the collective unconcious, our psychic gene-pool. No really, I'm sure that we were about to launch into some serious film criticism and discourse, cause you now, AICN has always been about scholarly discourse on the art of cinema. You know, like how awesome DIE HARD was, and the finer points of the latest Rambo movie. In short, dear joyless, humorless pedants: GED DOO DAH CHAHHPPAH!!! DOO EED NOW!!! (translation: Get the fuck over yourselves. AICN has never even come close to remotely resembling anything more than a collective venting of geek spleen with jokes. If YOU don't realize that, then, honestly? I feel sorry for you. The internets must prove to be an endless source of disappointment and barely contained rage, resentment, et al.)
Rando Calrisian by phaedrus007	Mar 30th, 2008 11:33:55 AM
Hey Rando, You're definitely not alone, a lot of fans and critics disliked the end of No Country. I actually liked it, and for what it's worth to you(which might nothing) it's pretty much 100% faithful to the ending of the novel. The worst the Coen Bros. could be accused of is not tinkering with the source material to provide a more cinematic ending... but you know how that goes, if they had, there would certainly be criticism for giving it a "hollywood ending" and from those who loved the source.

Rando Calrisian by Mr. Nice Gaius	Mar 30th, 2008 12:06:05 PM
I sympathize with those who were let down by the ending to NCFOM. But I happen to be a huge McCarthy fan and occassionaly find myself defending the story's conclusion and the Coen Bros.'s amazing depiction of it. I can only stress that it's really Bell's story (IMHO). Not Moss's...not Chigurh's. The seemingly more random and ruthless tide of violence, that he sees as the future, serves the basis for his opening narration and closing dream. The world (represented by Chigurh - random, evil, etc.) is so uncompromising, that it even robs us of the final showdown we all thought was coming. Bell's final scenes are crucial to this view and I found it to be an incredibly brave statement and ending. I do understand your sentiments. And I agree - a great ending is hard to come by these days. Cheers!
Yes, The Discourse Over A New Indy Jones Commercial... by LaserPants	Mar 30th, 2008 12:07:47 PM
must be truly thought provoking. For which I apologize most sincerely for daring to poke fun and have a laugh. How dare I entertain myself (and a handful of others who apparently enjoy it too)! This is serious fucking business! As serious as when, say, Jar Jar entered our lives and let us know that "you know what? You are too old to like this stuff and nostalgia really only goes so far to maintain that feeling of a bygone, daydreamy youth." So, with that in mind, let us all bow our heads, in proper mute solemnity, and ponder the deeper meaning of the whip crack, the smirk, the bygone era of 80s blockbusters; long may that golden age of cinema blind us with its brilliance, its subtlety, its coked out self-assuredness as mother and father, too strung out to care, first began to distance themselves from the ugly effort of parenting altogether, preferring to let the screen do it for them. And, if I may add one more thing, WHY DOO EEED HAVE TO BE THE SNAKES?!?! GED DOO DAH CHAHPPAH! DOO EEED NOW!!!

You do deserve to be banned for the thread-killing you and your idiot friends have been engaged in. I love how LaserPants pretends that you and he are all that stands in the way of AICN talkback becoming Sight & fucking Sound. The humor and insanity of talkback has never been in question. Instead, it's a matter of you and your cretin army killing even that with your spamming shit. What you assholes are responsible for is not getting in the way of "serious" film discussion, but killing the usual humor and madness of talkback. Now you're acting like some kind of martyred heroes because someone wants your useless asses removed. Don't worry, I'm sure your new spamming friends will show up soon and you can proceed to kill this thread as well.
American theatrical version of Grindhouse on Starz! by Powers Boothe	Mar 30th, 2008 12:15:13 PM
Why has this site mentioned that starting tomorrow the Starz cable channel will start airing the American theatrical version of Grindhouse? Why is this a big deal? 1. Because this is the version that isn't available on DVD...each segment is linked by the fake trailers (which aren't on the DVD!) exactly as it was shown in American cinemas back in April '07. 2. Starz also broadcasts in HD...so you also get the kick ass picture quality! A few weeks ago Starz was also playing the extended versions of the two films.

Thank you for responding without calling me a Scum Sucking Gutter Slug, or some other fascnatingly un-creative version of "fucking idiot". And I will say for the ending to NCFOM - it does make you wonder what happened. Some of it just came so abruptly. But I will give it a few days to sink in, then watch it again. There are some truly great scenes in the film. And Death Proof ending was absolutely fantastic. That was the forst time in a VERY long time that I heard people cheering in the theater. Will have to check out the Sweedish vampire flick. 30 Days of Night had a great setup, but fell to the same silly ending biz.

Decfx, I'm not positive why people hate Last Crusade... by rbatty024	Mar 30th, 2008 12:42:03 PM
...(since most just throw epithets at it without explaining why it's a bad movie), but I think it has to do with watching the original Raiders as kids without realizing how tongue in cheek it actually was, and then growing up expecting the ultra-serious Indy film they expected when they were younger and discovering a film that has a little more humor than Raiders. In other words, they wanted Indy to rape more women and disembowel more people.
rbatty024 by kwisatzhaderach	Mar 30th, 2008 12:54:20 PM
or it could be that Last Crusade is lazily directed by Spielberg who only did it after the box office failure of Empire of the Sun and his inability to get Rain Man made. Last Crusade is by far the weakest of the three Jones flicks. Having said that it's a thousand times better than 100% of the schlock that passes for summer movies these days. Everything is relative.

Kwisatzhaderach, if only those were the complaints... by rbatty024	Mar 30th, 2008 01:05:07 PM
of most Last Crusade haters. I'm not saying that Last Crusade doesn't have its weak points, because it does. The use of the Holy Grail and the Nazis are too reminiscent of Raiders. I actually like it better than Temple of Doom if only because Kate Capshaw is damn near unwatchable. I also secretly believe that Spielberg was channeling those old Bob Hope Road movies, and seen through that light I really enjoy Crusade. Neither film is as good as Raiders, but both are worthy sequels. I was basically talking about those who pretend Last Crusade is a cinematic travesty and try to make themselves feel better by tearing something else down.
I like the humor in Raiders more than Last Crusade by Tacom	Mar 30th, 2008 01:08:38 PM
Raiders was funny mostly because of the insane amount of danger Indy was always finding himself in. Last Crusade was funny too but it was because of banter and some comic moments. I'm really hoping this fourth one is funny in the same way the first movie was.

This doesnt neccesarily apply to Indy, but just cause someone is making movies because they loved the original material, and is headed by the main guy, DOESNT neccesarily mean that the movie is going to automatically be great. For example, Star Wars I, II, III all sucked balls. Thanks George Lucas for keeping the vison real!

"The Definition of Being a Little Bitch", Doc? Really? by LaserPants	Mar 30th, 2008 01:39:39 PM
The vast majority of talkbackers were jumping in on the title spam thang and enjoying themselves. Then you come along, whining, crying, complaining, offering nothing but a sad attempt at negative attention (which you received, so I guess you succeeded in that respect) like some neglected brat child with a crippling inferiority complex. So you go about your self-obsessed, self-martyrdom; bitterly, humorlessly, whining, bitching, moaning, running to papa-mod to back you up all to no avail, and I'm "the definition of being a little bitch?" Really, now. Am I? Oh Doc you are the king of irony; writhing and palpitating on your very own bed of nails, crown of thorns affixed squarely to a furrowed brow that NOBODY takes seriously, though you so desperately need to be. Thats your real pain right? Now feel free to fume and mope and whine and bitch and complain and weep into your cup of sorrows that only you seem to give a flying fuck about. The rest of us, the vast majority of us, will continue to do whatever the fuck we want despite your sad need to make that not the case. What a lonely, sad person you must be. I actually feel sorry for you. There, there. Someday it won't seem so bad.

There is something empty about it to me. It just feels empty. I can't explain it. The same way the 1st trailer did. Those who are saying some of us are bitching and moaning can suck one. Lucas has had a shitty track record for years. Not to mention this is the same McGuffin that BOTH Speilberg and Ford rejected many times and suddenly felt it was great? No, the truth is the all mighty dollar and Ford's lackluster acting career in recent years is what motivated both to turn coat and embrace what they once thought to be a shitty idea from Lucas. This coming from Lucas himself that they both hated the idea in the past. When you factor all those elements in it's really hard to get excited from my point of view.

It's like asking what the purpose of a drinking game serves. There is none. It's mindless tomfoolery.

But if you relish the pursuit of discovery, you'll find the effort very fulfilling.

I actually believe your intentions are sincere, but as is the case with Temple of Doom, Batman Returns, and Alien 3, I've lost interest in defending the PT. For all their flaws, I think they're among the most subversive "popcorn" movies released in decades, and feel the performances/dialogue from TPM and ROTS were no better or worse than what we got in the original film. What confounds me is how critics and general audiences could be far more receptive to ROTS than a cadre of genre fans. (Go to metacritic, and you'll see its score was just a few points below Batman Begins.) Something just doesn’t feel right, here.

The McGuffin in this film could be Scarlett Johanson's pussy, when opened fires out Voltron and the Thundercats who do battle with Ash and The Bride and some of you would be like, "meh". So fuck you. I would like to add though that CGI matte "paintings" look infinitely better than 2 dimensional painted ones, the one exception being the last scene in Raiders in the warehouse. And I've said this before but all Lucas did was write the outline of the story. Two more screen writers took over after that, yet if it sucks you'll blame him and it it rules you'll credit Spielberg. Because you're all dicks.

I actually expect MORE from Steven Spielberg then the CGI equivalent of a third direct-to-dvd "Librarian" movie. CGI and green screen has become the fast and lose bullshit way of getting shitloads of work done without actually having to put all the actual WORK into it. The systems and backdrops are already in place, all they ever need to do is drop in the elements and attach the physical parameters. Saves em 6 weeks of construction and 400 jobs, but the loss of quality and authenticity for filmmakers like Steven is irreperable. It simply looks lazy
Deathbird that is absolutely insane by IndustryKiller!	Mar 30th, 2008 05:05:28 PM
Subversive? Oh jesus Christ. And acting wise Hayden Christensen is simply beneath contempt. He's an early contender for worst actor of his generation. His stilted delivery combined with his constantly cracking whiny voice makes for one of the most painful characterizations in big budget film history. And there is not a moment in Star Wars Episode 3 that you can name that I can't tear down to its very fabric. It's a horrendous film that makes the original trilogy worse when it's taken into context. Not to mention that George Lucas gets his own fucking story wrong. It's actually a WORSE film than the previous two prequels. The only reason people think it's better is because the plot is actually moved forward in Episode 3. They completely ignore that the plot points shown are butchered beyond reprieve. Anakins fall tot he dark side and the Jedi downfall are laughable cinematic jokes given absolutely no weight and glossed over in about 7 seconds. I know exactly why you are done defending the prequels, because you can't.

Is because they don't fucking care. Pauline Kael once described movies like Star Wars as "great trash" and that is what genre films have always been to critics. Mild diversions at best. Critics are as out of touch with genre filmmaking as the general american public is. When a film like Episode 3 puts on the cynical illusion of gravitas the critics simply don't give enough of a damn to take it on anything but it's word. They rate films like that on a different scale than artier fare and think "Oh whats the harm" if something like Episode 3 turns out to be a terrible film masquerading as Star Wars.

Even the opera scene is ridiculous because by IndustryKiller!	Mar 30th, 2008 05:29:11 PM
it sets up Anakins fall to the dark side as boiling down to a fucking premonition and a baseless belief in the power of the darkside to resurrect the dead. Which Lucas needed because he squandered the first two films instead of setting up a believeable foundation for Anakins dark beliefs. And when said premonition comes true, like Anaking is absolutely convinced throughout the entirety of the film it will, what happens? NOTHING. Instead of saying "Great, it's as I forsaw in my force dream. Now let's work on that whole bringing back the dead thing you told me about Palpatine." Anakin just yells that horrible "NOOOO!" and forgets about it apparently. Making his fall to the dark side for absolutely nothing. The dialogue itself, in that one scene, isn't as painful as the others but what it represents is a bastardization of the story.

Too much CGI. Waa. by gengrievous82	Mar 30th, 2008 06:37:38 PM
No offense to the people that have complained about the supposed overuse of CGI. Your film opinions are just as important as any one else here, but seriously, what are you guys expecting? Yes, practical effects are awesome. There is something tangible about their on-screen presence that really draws you into the movie. However, it's the 21st century and technology has moved on. So should you. I'm not saying that this makes bad CGI ok, but if you think you can do better than go out and buy and learn Maya. Until then, stop complaining. Look beyond the effects and have fun with the movie, which will hopefully have a strong stoyline. I think the CG looks solid so far and I can't wait to see the entire finished film. Did some of you ever stop to think about the CG that you don't see? There's wire removal in that trailer and corrections to some of the shots. All of those count as VFX shots. Just hope for a good film that will join the ranks of the three before it and stop picking apart the 2 minutes that you've seen. For all you know it'll look a lot more refined in the final film. Ok I'm done, my soap box collapsed out from under me.

gengrievous82... the problem is by LargoJr	Mar 30th, 2008 07:21:39 PM
NOT CGI... the problem is its utter lack of quality, and that Film makers who's entire careers are built & based on finding ways to make the 'unreal', real. Would James Cameron be recognized as a mechanical and visual genius if he had simply plopped his actors in front of a green screen for every single scene? Granted, Jurassic Park was loaded with CGI... but it was of QUALITY.. and it didn't eliminate the need for (or substitute for that matter) a good story. King Kong did exactly that. A HUGE film that was little more then a cartoon with Jack Black acting like his normal fat-assed, fucktarded and unfunny self. Raiders is and was a Hallmark and a benchmark for Steven... it was the bar the entire industry was placed against for DECADES. When Doom and Crusade failed to compete with it, people were slow to recognize that Steven had made the same mistakes Lucas had with Jedi. Childish humor and buffoonery are NOT good substitutes for great story telling and characters you actually care about. CGI has become the 'Acme kit for instant film making', and it is killing the industry when it is used simply because its available. PS: Lost World, Minority Report, and WOTW sucked ass on buttered toast.

Do you think he gets a lot of pussy? He made $400 million from Star Wars - episode one. That could buy a lot of high-priced, discreet prostitutes. Well, rent them actually. Do you think he fucks nerd chicks from conventions? Or female techies who work in ILM? Do you think he's kinky and wears a Darth Vader mask while fucking? I bet Spielberg uses that leather jacket and whip when he fucks Kate Capshaw. He totally sees himself as Indy in his head, and you can tell Kate's a freak. I bet she's fucked a few poolboys and gardeners to help satisfy those carnal urges that the Berg satisfy himself, ya know?

HATERS by barrignite	Mar 30th, 2008 08:41:07 PM
There is so much cynisism going on, its tiring to read. People who say they "despise" Last Crusade are baffling to me. With Speilberg i have utmost trust with, knowing that i can walk in and at worst enjoy the film on some level. There is a reek of quality in every movie he does, even non-popcorn fare like Munich. But when he turns it on, with the Jurassic Park's, Jaws, E.T's and the Indys, you owe it to yourself as a movie fan to just sit back, leave your cynisism at the door and enjoy the fuck out of the flick. Remember what it used to be like as a kid? The wonder? The excitement? I still get that with Speilberg. The moments of father/son banter in last crusade are just utter genius. Genius. The director playing on something almost all of us can relate to in being scolded by a parent. Im going to walk in to the theater on May 22nd with trust in my heart. When has Steven Speilberg really (I mean REALLY) let you down? He is like a good father, separated from his kids (us) who never misses a visit. And when he arrives, he sticks you in the car and whisks you away to some awesome theme park where you have fucking good day. Even when he returns to drop you off to your waiting mother in the evening, you can see in her eyes she's thinking, "God damn it, i wish i never left you after Empire of the Sun, you bearded minx."

Jurassic Park's, Jaws, E.T's and the Indys by HoichiTheEarless	Mar 30th, 2008 09:53:03 PM
Remember the old bit on Sesame Street "One of these things, doesn't belong". Actually, it's sullied a bit by grouping the Indys when Raiders is in a class of it's own. I don't hate Last Crusade, it was entertaining and it's far better than TOD. But it pales in comparison to Raiders. As does the Jurassic Park films, which should never be mentioned in the same breath as Jaws other than a general listing of Spielberg's filmography. Anyway, this griping about "cynics" and "haters" is juvenile. I hardly hate Spielberg, when he comes out with a new film I'm always interested in it. But I happen to have so much love for his early popcorn work (specifically Jaws, Raiders and Close Encounters) that his ventures into escapist entertainment in the last couple of decades suffer in comparison. Had it been another film maker it's easier to hold it to another standard. That isn't hate or cynicism, if anything it's a higher respect for the standards Spielberg set earlier in his career than the folks who are gobbling up anything he's making now. Spielberg definitely seems more "on" these past 15 years or so with his adult oriented fare like Munich, Saving Private Ryan, Catch Me if You Can, Schindler's List. And no other film maker has stepped in to fill the void of making truly great escapist fare since he lost that touch.
Just to chime in on the CGI debate. by AllPowerfulWizardOfOz	Mar 30th, 2008 10:09:41 PM
My analogy of disliking the trailer has nothing to do with the CGI. It has to do more with the vibe that I am getting over all from what I am being shown and thus far the vibe has been suck. As I said earlier there is something empty about what I've seen so far and I don't mean CGI I mean it just doesn't feel alive in general. Now be that it being CGI or not does not take away from me my reaction to the trailer and yes an admitted bias towards both Lucas and Ford who have not had anything worth mentioning for years. As far as CGI itself goes, I hate it. Personally I miss the old days when full sets and models had to be built to pull of something that made you go "HOLY SHIT!". Those days are gone and will never return. Quite sad to because a lot of love went into those sets and models. Sure a lot of love goes into programming what we see now but it's not the same. It's still missing something that for me takes away from what I am seeing instead of engrossing me.

Proman1984... maybe not CGI but Indy 3 had... by MurderMostFowl	Mar 30th, 2008 10:46:30 PM
The compositing/chroma keying on the scene just before the tank goes over the cliff drives me nuts. I just close my eyes every time the nazi guy gets up on top cause I know it's coming. IIRC there is weakness in the scene where the plane "flies" through the tunnel as well, but that didn't bother me as much. Honestly, it's not bad, it's just an itch.. every time I see it, I have to scratch it. ( and I'm not an Indy 3 hater. I LOVE it. ) Rancor scene in Jedi does the same thing to me. I'll get over it :)
It's not "CGI", it's digital green screen... by Darth_Inedible	Mar 30th, 2008 10:51:45 PM
Nothing in that trailer looks like it's been digitally rendered. The cliff that they're racing along is obviously a large scale model, as are the pillars and the giant stone temple. What you're objecting to is live action green screen stuff that's been digitally comped with REAL miniature sets.

The real problem with CGI by HoichiTheEarless	Mar 31st, 2008 01:18:18 AM
I sort of echo some of the comments about how more or less, it's too easy to understand what goes into CGI imagery, while before unless you were in the industry or read about it you really didn't know how many of these images were pulled off. But still CGI is a great tool for film making. The problem isn't the CGI but how film makers have been using it. Too often they're putting all the cinematic burden on the CGI and letting basic things like composition, editing, acting, sound (as opposed to noise) carry the scene. They're coming up with stories and scenes just because of what can be done with CGI instead of things that should work on their own merits, whatever that might be.

They don't try and do anything to make their miserable lives any better (there's a surprise). I suggest sit down and read a good book. It will keep you all away from wasting my time reading your crap... and it may just lighten you people up. 2nd option: Go to the nearest emergency room and ask the doctor to pull whatever is stuck up your arse out.

As much as TPM was boring and AOTC had that cringe inducing love story, ROTS had the classic "NOOOOOO!!" scene which trumps every bad PT moment. It also turned the who Jedi purge into a 3 minute montage where Jedi knights were taken out like punks, getting shot in the back. Obi-Wan riding a stupid lizard? General Grevious using four lightsabers that get cut off in the first two second of the fight. A film where Obi-Wan and Anakin spend most of their time separated. AGAIN! Padme dying of a broken heart. Man, this could go on all day...

Raiders is probably one of the best films ever made but TOD and TLC were still fantastic amounts of fun.

I have as much faith in the fanbase as I do in George Lucas finally admitting the PT were a big waste of time.

I find that there are two ways of looking at that. Yes, they're all great films in a wider context (especially considering the state of the genre today), but in the context of Indy films, TLC is pretty bad - or at least the worst of the bunch. TOD is the most underrated.
Spielberg's Doom... by nightmute	Mar 31st, 2008 08:51:13 AM
I don't think a new Indy movie is necessarily a bad idea, but the trailers/teasers don't excite me as they should. Yes, there is a huge element of nostalgia at play here for many of us, and I'm sure most people are curious as to how the film will play out, but the gags in the trailer seem forced, and the action--what we've seen of it--looks old-fashioned, and not in a good way. The problem is verisimilitude, or the lack of it. Spiel doesn't believe in this stuff anymore, the way he used to. He's no longer the kid playing with the train set. He's the oscar winner who sees Indy as less important than his "worthy" films, and wants the world to know it, and I expect we'll get the sense of this when Skull is released. By the way, Mister Spielberg, the wrong guy died at the end of Saving Private Ryan. It should have been Ryan, which would have rendered the title wonderfully ironic and have completely proved the point of the film, which was about loss and sacrifice. And you wimped out on AI too--the kid should have stayed in the sea. Oh hell, the ending of War of the Worlds also sucked. Tom Cruise's kid should have fucking died! I very much doubt that Skull will demonstrate much courage in its execution, either. But Jeez, I hope I'm wrong.
Rupee88 by TheLastCleric	Mar 31st, 2008 10:18:10 AM
Spielberg shits more talent daily than you’ve possessed in your entire life so why not take the arrogance down a few notches? If you sincerely think it’s all been downhill since ET, I would submit that you are in no position to call other people “retards.” Munich is a phenomenally well made film that is also unflinchingly courageous in terms of content, especially coming from a Jewish director. Both A.I. and Minority Report are incredibly great and intelligent science fiction entries, as is War of the Worlds, a film where Spielberg resisted making an Independence Day retread and instead deliberately crafted something more intimate and compelling while simultaneously violent and intense. And that’s just his recent work; I don’t even need to go into the why Schindler’s List is the definitive film on the Holocaust and one of the greatest films ever made or how the opening scenes in Saving Private Ryan redefined how a war film should look and sound. If you want to go on trashing the man, be my guest, but please understand that your arrogant dismissal of one of the most significant and influential voices in cinema doesn’t make you bigger or smarter but rather makes you look all that more pathetic and full of your own pretentious bullshit.

Save for BoboVision's post about a Shiva penis, count me utterly bored. I think we've exhausted ourselves talking about Indy. No more topics remain.

"Rescue Dawn". After escaping a Japanese prison camp as a child, Christian Bale goes on to be captured in a Vietnamese prison camp.

Growing up, the whole Indy trilogy was great fun. I don't get people hating TLC. It had some great action, humour and, most of all, heart. TOD, I can understand people hating. But, really, that film is more classic B-grade action than any of the Indy films. I mean, it is one of the most insane films I've ever seen (and I've watched some messed up films!). Hearts being torn out, mine-cart chases, rope bridges, jumping out of a plane on a life raft, roofs closing in with spikes, bugs, monkey brains, eye-ball soup. The film was totally gross, over-the-top and silly but I think it craps all over most films today and I've never seen anything like it.
"Faster! Move!" by darthvedder81	Mar 31st, 2008 10:15:35 PM
Listen to Harrison when he says this line--he sounds a lot less like the gruff post "Air Force One" Harrison Ford and a lot more like the energetic Harrison Ford from the "Indy" movies. This is something I just noticed and it's a very good sign. I think we are going to be surprised by this movie. I'm not expecting it to be on the level of perfection of "Raiders" or have the spectacular, ballsy action and setpieces of "Temple" but by God if this is a entertaining, old-fashioned action romp on the order of "Last Crusade" with Spielberg/Lucas/Ford putting everything they have left in the tank into this movie I think we are in for a real treat this summer.

Mr. Suit and Tie, by kolchak	Mar 31st, 2008 10:56:33 PM
What you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent, response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber from having listened to it. I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul.

Looks like fun... by max314	Apr 1st, 2008 05:46:45 AM
I think this will be a fun time at the movies. I'm not a huge fan of either 'Raiders' or 'Temple', but I do think that 'The Last Crusade' is a great family film, which owes a lot to the Connery-Ford relationship. As long as Shia and Harrison's relationship in 'Kingdom' is as good as the Sean-Harrison one in 'Crusade', I think this could be a lot of fun.
Lucas by SKULL1138	Apr 1st, 2008 10:42:30 AM
You know Lucas gets some really bad shit and portrayed as being one of the worst hacks in film. I mean the guy only created Star Wars irrespective of what people think of the prequels, the originals are absolutley awesome, the prequels are just shat upon, because the originals were so good, we all expected something that good again, me included and as time goes by I cant any longer convince myslef they are good films, but I would argue that ROTS is almost as good as ROTJ. But TPM and AOTC are total shat compared to originals. He also only came up wth the idea of Indiana Jones as an adventuring archeologist, only one of the best movie characters of all time. Give the guy a break, he's analysed and critiqued more than any other film maker out there. I am so looking forward to this movie, just like i was with prequels, and alhtough they did dissapoint through time, I still loved going to cinema originaly to see them with mates. and I still have them on DVD. Lucas did not write this, Spielberg is directing, the dream team is back, the first 3 were all fantastic movies and I have full confidence that this will be no different, unfortunately I think there are a lot of poeple going to go see this and already have the idea in their head they dont like it, because thats cool these days. Go and see it, disengage the brain (Its a B movie) and have a good fucking time watching Indy swing back into action
Last crusade by SKULL1138	Apr 1st, 2008 10:52:34 AM
Whats wrong with this film? I admit its my least favourite of the 3 Indy films, but I still love it, the humour is the best in this of all 3. I love Sean Canary in this film (Us Scottish are allowed to call him that). Best bit of casting ever for Indy's old man. If patter can be as good as this with Shia in Kingdom, but also have the adventure feel of Raiders (One of best films ever made) then this can be great. Fuck everyone, I am looking so forward to this, more than I ahve done for any movie in years and it is only narrowly ahead of TDK, because Begins is my favourite Superhero film of all time.
