Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (June 30th, 2023)

[Remembermyname]

When I watched the opening scenes of Raiders in 81 I thought now this could grow legs, the rest is history. It is not the years, its the mileage.

It's as perfect as ANH and ESB, and as much, perhaps even more, re-watchable.

It's a huge shame that Raiders never got its ESB quality sequel. That "in some ways better than the original" follow-up. TOD is still fun and TLC is not without merit, but they are not even close to the same league as the towering achievement of Raiders.

It's fun to imagine Indy as a OT-like trilogy with two 10/10 films.

Here's hoping that the follow-up to KOTCS is better than it in more then just some ways lol. Speaking of which, has it really been 15 years since that fiasco?

15 years in the blink of an eye.....Time waits for no man.

The Last Adventure. We can only hope.

If Harrison comes back in 12 years as Indy in a wheelchair I will hurt someone.

OK, now you have to make that meme. Use that dumb Indy expression above! Please..

New featurette

It does looks fun! What can I say, even though every single one has been progressively worse than the first (none were ever going to match it), and I would have been more than happy if they stopped at Last Crusade, this character will always pull me back in.
Definitely giving the old man a chance for one last ride.
That old Rhys-Davies, and now old Banderas, are there cheering him on, makes it even better.

 

[Wor-Gar]

If, in the end, Indy is down and can't get up... but is suddenly aided by the voices of his past: Marion, Sallah, Brody, ShortRound, and yes even good old Dad, calling to him: Rise, Indy... RISE!

I will throw up on the person in front of me. I will.

80 Year Old Man That Doesn't Understand Technology and the Butt-Dial of Destiny



(huh. I might actually watch that movie, to be honest. Seems like a more ripe premise than this movie.)

First review heaps praise on the film while also containing a lot of new story spoilers.

Doesn't sound terribly appealing.

Wow, I knew there's be spoilers popping up between today and the 6/30 U.S. release, but I really didn't think I'd have to avoid this thread so soon. Thanks for nothing.

 

[loki2371]

It's a "Fun" movie. Always the sign of quality writing and acting....

 

[Wor-Gar]

The most insightful warning of the article:

Sometimes, the essence of being an adventuring hero is to know when to put the bullwhip down and get out of Dodge.
