The new Indiana Jones movie - Page 2

Does anyone think the movie needed some/more booby traps? That would have made it so much more epic.

Surviving a nuke? <- Not really plot spoiler.

Honestly, I think it relied too much on digital technology. It didn't have that genuine Indy stop-time animation while guys are crumbling to dust that the originals had.

I wouldn't recommend it. It wasn't even a good movie in his own right. It was pretty cliche.

I agree, it lacked that special Indy feel that was present in the other three movies.

I watched the other three after seeing this, and Crystal Skull cannot compare to those, they are much better.

I thought it was pretty cool.

It kinda confused me though.. Aliens? a UFO in the late 1970s-80s?

That's kinda awkward.

It was in the 50's.

It seemed top lack everything that made it indiana joans. The effects seemed horrible. I bet this was made 10 years ago and they just released it.

MalReynolds · 06-6-2008, 03:40 PM

Yes, that's surely it. What particular thing did it lack, pray tell?

Nothing like the originals. By itself the plot was good and engrossing, I liked it, but he's too old for it to be believable. I didn't like seeing him survive impossible things without a scratch. I might watch it again on t.v. eventually, the skull was cool.

I didn't find it as bad as most have said it was. However it still wasn't that great of a movie in my opinion. Then again I've never been a big Indiana Jones fan.

I thought it was alright. I like Indiana Jones so I was excited about watching it. But I really did hate the idea about aliens. I was like 'WTF?!!!' when I saw the aliens. Also, I kept getting confused at some parts in the movie. The first three movies were much easier for me to follow (and I liked them more than this one).

I wanted to like it, but I was really bored throughout the whole movie. I thought the acting was bad, and I don't like Shia LaBeouf, but I thought he was the best thing in the movie.

The female villain was laughable -- almost a parody of the action/adventure genre. The alien thing was very E.T. too.

I liked it so much more than I expected to!

Some bits I thought were just a little too fake, like when Mutt was swinging on the vines like Tarzan and the part with the ants, but overall I really enjoyed it.

Did anyone notice that both Mutt and Indy BOTH go by a dog's name? =]

Ha ha, nice coincidence you observed. Yeah, the movie was decent.

**Ground_Breaker** · 06-22-2008, 12:11 AM

I guess I'll be the first person to say I effing hated it.

Before I get ripped apart by all those who loved it and will say things like, "OMG U DIDNT WATHC TEH FRIST ONES DID U", I did watch the first three, and they were pretty good.

This abridged script does a pretty good job describing my feelings about it.

I honestly tried to take it seriously, but right about the time I looked up from my popcorn to see Shia LeBeouf swinging from vines with a crap-ton of monkeys, I just couldn't do it anymore.
