the reviews are coming in

That was in Darabont's script too.

Strange that Darabont got no script credit.... seems there was a lot of his in Koepp's version.

Baddddddd Darabont...!

Badddddddddddddddd...!!!!

*Smacks Darabont's nose with newspaper and rubs his nose in fridge scene in script before slinging him in the garden.*

Baaaaaaaaaaaddddddd dog!

Hehehe

😛 Awwww He'll be ok.
Mind you, keeping a dog like that in the back yard is a challenge.
They tend to keep escaping through a mile long river of foul smelling sewerage and they emerge smelling of roses.... 😛

I'd like to see the "shitscript redemption".
Synopsis: "Frank Darabona is sent to serve a life sentence in Shawshank prison for the crime of allegedly having written portions of K.O.T.C.S... He denies writing the monkey scene, and later a young prisoner by the name of LeBeout. LeBeout tells Frank and his friends that he saw an old lag Lukazz approving that use of the insane script. Word gets round to the warden Speelberge that Darabona is innocent and as Speelberg looks to lose out if this gets round, his bumps off the plucky young prisoner, but will Darabona be able to escape with his last hope of name clearance seemingly erased..?" 😛

Maybe it would star Axl Rose, Richard Simmons and David Hasslehoff as the sisters of D-wing 😛

You are so dyslexic when it comes to names. And its getting worse. Time to get yourself a geriatric consultant. 😉

I'm not too bothered, personally. Hence the disregard.

I definitely will sleep soundly given my reasonable command of English otherwise. 🙂

Reasonable indeed.

Oddly the postive reviews seem to have stopped.

How curious.

Have the critics actually seen the movie now..?
Or have Spielberg's PR employees masquerading as reviewer's cheques cleared or bounced..? 😛

Hehehe... why would they review? New reviews will prolly surface when the DVD comes out. We'll see by then.

By then it's journey to 'the cheap bin'...erm... I mean.. 'the darkside' will be complete. 😛

Hehehe

Well I seemed to be right about that, in hindsight.

Told ya so. 😛

You did.

Its a sad indictment of GL and the SS, that more entertainment was had in the watching of the South Park reaction, than from the 'movie' itself...

I hated the South Park episode. OK, the alien mythology was dumb, so what? It didn't affect Indy at all, and since noone actually takes it seriously, noone is offended.

Takes what seriously? The southpark episode or the movie...?

Probably neither after seeing KOTCS.
And thats the problem for serious fans of the Indy trilogy.

The alien mythology I didnt find to be a problem as much as the utter ruination of the tone set by the 1st three movies, turning newly-slapstick Indy into little more than a comedy side kick to a deeply uncharismatic Mutt, the simultaneous ruining of Karen Allen's character, the deeply wasteful use of great actors/actresses like Hurt, Winstone, Blanchett.. The gophers man...... remember the gophers.

Had Gopher reaction shots been equally pointlessly inserted in the scene in Raiders where Indy was about the grab the idol, what would that have done to the scene and therefore the film....?

Its not just Aliens or stupid fridge stuff in isolation that let us down, it was the accumilative effect of every rancidly banal and inferior/generic little brick combined that makes the wall in the franchise that is KOTCS/TOAS.

It was rather disappointing yes.

I can still hear the screams.

No. You are still screaming.
