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

Moooon Riverrrrr....

So we are finally here. We enter the final 2 weeks before release.

That period I've waited years for, to see if Howard truly hates Harrison Ford.

Seriously though, an Indy would make me so happy, but I am half and half on one being made by HT.

 

[Sixth Scale Man]

I just can’t get excited for DOD. Posters and billboards and trailers and collectibles and nostalgia…….
Five words echo in my mind……
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

Er, shouldn't it be "When Han met Elthree (again)"?

(Actually, Fleabag ain't a bad nickname for an Indy sidekick...)

She’s in the driver’s seat an ‘ol “Collect a Check” is up there like a ventriloquist dummy for Fleabag to work over like Edgar Bergen on a bender.

I have a feeling this movie will bring me to tears too.

This Indy bashing is going on years now, since the day the thread began. It's boring.

Well, what would you like to talk about? Batman?

 

[Johnny Utah]

Nah he's getting battered in the Flash thread. I just want to look forward to seeing Indy on the big screen for the last time for the next two weeks.

No one can help you there.

I highly recommend that you just go and watch "Raiders of the Los Ark". It's a great movie.

 

[Johnny Utah]

I don't need help. I'm sure the new film will get torn to shreds when it comes out. I don't care though, the film looks like it'll be fun and a nice break from comic book stuff.

a nice break from comic book stuff.

I do agree with this. I wish there were more adventure movies being made.

Glad I’m not a fan. This franchise is struggling hard. Star Wars level . Well almost

This really shouldn't qualify as a "franchise" with only two movies released over the last 33 years (come the end of the month). This is so far to one end of the franchise spectrum that it's barely visible, meanwhile the next Fast & Furious movie probably starts filming while Vin Diesel is walking the red carpet at the current one's premiere.

 

[Johnny Utah]

I get what you were going for there, but Wor Gar wasn't being harsh.

Plus that's a lot of effort finding Point Break gifs for a post. I picked the name in 2003 when I joined the old moviemaniacs.net board because Matrix Reloaded was coming out and I love Keanu. Just said I'd use it on every board after that

 

[Raiders March]

Just watched the original 3 over the past 3 days.

I couldn't be happier.

Don't need to waste a minute of time or money on this pointless, grating, ****. I've read every spoiler and seen a bunch of reviewers talking about their experiences - there's not one thing that sounds good about it. Not, a single, thing.

So is any other kind of movie. For people who care about the character this downward trend is aggravating. I suppose for people who just want to see people jumping around and stuff blowing up it would be fine. Some one has to be watching those Fast and Furious movies.

Hey, don't drag Fast and Furious into this!
