Even if the movie is fantastic I really wonder if there's still enough interest out there in the character, or in watching a quaint, old-fashioned adventure with an archaeologist in a fedora for 2 hours. I don't get the sense the younger generation even cares much about the original movies, unlike SW and other franchises which are still going strong.

They should have made 4 and 5 a long time ago, like in the 90s when the general audience weren't watching their phones instead of the movie in front of them. I love Indy, but the franchise never did him the justice he deserved. Even computer games had a better plot at times, so here we are hoping this doesn't tank and is a fitting send off for the man in the hat!

I was still in diapers when they should have stopped making these movies.

And you'll probably be in them again before they actually do...

I've been watching Clear and Present Danger. That came out in 94/95 I think, when Ford would have been in his early 50's.
When I was watching it, I had the same thought. They should have done Indy 4 and 5, or maybe a 6th, make it a second trilogy, during the 90's. Release them in the 2nd half of the decade.

They should have been doing one every three years since 1981. Like Bond.

We'd have 14 Indy movies by now. At least 4 of them would be excellent.

Early 90s Indy.....what could have been.....

Looks like he's trying to be Dr Who.

Or wrap a red scarf around his chin, he'd have made a decent Shadow.

New trailer has me believing this could be really a good film- has to be better than the last one. Quietly excited...

Wor-Gar · Apr 9, 2023

Doesn't even have to be good to be better than the last one. Meh would work.

With that murderer of franchises Waller-bridge involvement, i won't be holding out much hope for this.

Still looking forward to seeing it though, if only to see a de-aged Ford

Pretty much the only excitement I have is for that opening sequence... and of course Mads will be great. The rest will likely be uneven, silly, impossible, and gaggy with old man jokes or over-the-top empowerment bits like "You go, Indiana Jones!".

There's a higher chance of me liking the film than some of you ''ROTLA purists''. What with me being someone who loves TLC on a par with Raiders. I didn't like KOTCS when I first saw it (and still find it easily the weakest of the 4 films so far) but have since dropped some of my complaints after realizing that the other films also have ridiculous, unsurviveable action set pieces.

Hopefully DoD will be better paced and not be saddled with so much boring exposition as KOTCS was.

DoD = Dead on Delivery

The Tuk-Tuk chase scene has been leaked. Looks fun!

Dark_Knight_89 · Apr 11, 2023

I saw it on reddit, but it's now been taken down unfortunately. Had a strong "Last Crusade" vibe. I think I'm going to like Helena.

I cant watch KOTCS at all any more…

1. Fridge
2. Snake Rope
3. Falling Truck ( I hate the TOD scene with the raft also)
4. Monkeys
5. Motorcycle Chase

The only scene I think was done well, is the graveyard….and thats super short.
