Nope. It was just boring. Even KotCS wasn't boring.

Not to mention it's yet another Lucasfilm where the legacy character is a broken depressed old man with a shit life pulled into adventure by the new plucky youngish female character.

Time to get a new playbook KK.

Wouldn’t call any Indy film boring, KotCS was just bad, didn’t like the plot or Shia’s character. Though it had some fun parts cos Indy.

Fair enough on the grumpy old man angle and I would have preferred a happy go lucky Indy going on one last adventure, but his angle was very human imo.

Helena also [SPOILER - highlight to read]: wasn’t a hero for most of the film, her redemption arc didn’t start until later in the film. Indy was a fulcrum in it.

Split my sides laughing at an Applebees ad offering a movie ticket to the show for a 35 dollar bill. They must have high expectations for this film. 🤣😂😂

Sounds like it might be decent.

I'm still skeptical that it can be very good with time travel. I'm not generally a fan of the plot device.

I'm just expecting a lot of nostalgia callbacks.


Come on, when I love a film, I scream it to the heavens smile

On the one hand there's almost no way it'll be worse than Crystal Skull, but it's also unlikely that it will be all that great.

How old is he? And he's still playing an action/adventure hero?

I mean, not knocking him, Harrison Ford is awesome, but I just suspect it's going to strain credulity.


Yeah if the big draws of today are in their 80's and 90's, I feel bad for the future generations because movies are gonna be awful. They just can't cast A list talent anymore.

Chadwick Boseman was a very very rare new top level talent, and he dies tragically. So we're left with, what, The Rock?

Holland? Talented?

He's fine at playing a superhero. Anything more and it's beyond him.

^^^Ah, my bad! I don’t read his posts.

But yeah to cdtm’s point, there’s actually a lot of young talent for Hollywood to exploit out there right now.

Pound for pound Brits are generally better actors.
