Preparing to ruin Indiana Jones


Indiana will likely act like a jerk and die a pointless death after being dominated by several strong female characters.

It's gonna be horrible. Indy, ultimate male icon, being made by that studio in this climate, 2020? It's gonna be a disgrace.

reply

Well, we all have to admit Indy 4 was a disgrace even without all the wokeness.

reply

Indy was an epic trilogy from the eighties.

They already tried to ruin it with that abortion from this century.
How can they go in a worse direction than that? You are about 12 years late.

Eh I don't think the series has been any good since Temple of Doom. But yes I'm sure we will have some kind of Mary Sue character who can use the whip better, bluff better, shoot better and is a complete know it all who puts Indy in his place. Indy will probably spend the entire film bitching, moaning, drinking milk straight out of the boobs of a cow and then die sitting on his ass.

"I don't think the series has been any good since Temple of Doom."

And you're 100% right. Everything after ToD sucked, and sucked hard. I think that Indy 3 & 4 are equally horrible, and I'm sure that my opinion will raise a few eyebrows.

I'd actually go a step further and say Last Crusade was worse than Crystal Skulls, Crystal Skulls at least had the ant fight which was kind of exciting and Ford at least kind of sounded like he gave a shit. Crusade was just boring and childish I can't say a single positive thing about it. As far as I'm concerned there is a film called Raiders of the Lost Ark and it has a prequel called Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and that's it.

reply

Wait...what? Temple of Doom was a prequel?

reply

Yes, it only makes sense as a prequel to ROTLA.

reply

Ha absolutely false. Last crusade destroys temple of doom in terms of reception. Last crusade and raiders are the great ones temple and crystal skull are the weaker ones.

reply

When it came out I couldn't believe they were trying to pass off Sean Connery as Harrison Ford's dad when they're basically from the same generation just twelve years apart.

reply

That's movie magic for you...

reply

I'd have been fine with it if Ford and Connery had actual chemistry but they didn't. That conversation they had on the blimp was so cringe inducing it was painful to listen to.

reply

Too late.

reply

Everything that bitch touches turns to crap! Every Star Wars project she's had made so far (with two exceptions) has been an absolute disaster. If her shit company's gonna make this, I'm not watching it.

reply

What are those exceptions you're referring? I must have missed them.

reply

My thoughts exactly, every SW movie she's been involved with is utter crap (yes, even the ridiculously overrated Rogue One).

reply

"Rogue One" and "The Mandalorian."

Indy 1 is a CLASSIC.
Indy 2 is a CLASSIC.
Indy 3 is a CLASSIC.
Indy 4 is SHIT.
Indy 5 will be SHIT.

Anyone who says otherwise, ANYONE, will be promptly IGNORED by me.

reply

Indy 1 is a CLASSIC
Prequel Indy is a GOOD MOVIE
Indy 3 is SHIT
Indy 4 is SHIT
Indy 5 probably will be SHIT

reply

Indy 1 is a masterpiece
Indy 2 gave me a headache
Indy 3 was uneven, decent but no Indy 1
Indy 4 the most boring film Spielberg has done
Indy 5 won't happen

reply

F you.

He throws insults instead of actually sticking to his word and ignoring like he said he would.

reply

I'm past being bothered at this point. I'm jaded.
