Release of Kingdom of the crystal skull trailer

Thanks - will check that out 🙂 .

It is. Just scan through it with your arrow keys, I know I did.

Trailer is great!

I can't wait for this film!

Me neither. Blanchett looks great.

Except for the CGI, I can't really find anything to complain about.

Indy's not for CGI...

There is that one explosion - or maybe two, that was CGI. But i dont mind explosions being CGI as long as their not OTT. It was nice to see a 'real' waterfall put it that way, so all the great location shooting looks as good as before - so that's a real bonus!

But in a recent interview with John Hurt, he did confirm blue screen shooting.

Of course there's blue sceen. Indy's never been devoid of special visuall effects. OUr consolatlion now is that it's for sure to be better than in Last Crusade. They could really do those again as far as I am concerned.

What I'm afraid of I guess is that Steven and Lucus will focus too much on special effects and ignore a good plot/storyline and character development.

In Empire it said the amount of visual effects was extremely low compaed to most action pics therse days. In fact, it's similar to the other three. I hope Spielberg is giving action-without-CGI lessons to people with this one.

I hope so too.

Frank Marshall said so, I'm sure he knows.

something like a hundred CGI shots i heard - which is very little ofcoarse

Sure sounds like a lot..how long is the film?

well i think the last 3 SW films had something like (roughly) 2000 shots on blue/green screen. Actually come to think of it, i meant "frames" not shots😛

as much of a fan of the indy series as i am. As much as i am looking forward to this movie. I must say. The trailer makes the movie look like nothing special and actually lowers my anticipation for the movie a bit. Hopefully, that is a good thing. I will find myself going into a movie that i am not expecting much from and rewarded by a great event. I highly doubt this movie will be anything other than mediocre, at best.

Good thing you're positive.

I'm sure Indiana Jones and the ROTLA looked like nothing special, just another action flick, but we all know now that's not true now. 😛

But I also know better than to get overexcited and too hyped up. Hopefully I walk out rewarded as well.

We all do. I can only hope Spielberg has some mastery up his sleeve that will surprise us all.

yeah i do my best not to get too hyped, but when it comes to Indiana Jones it's really hard not to
