Are you going to see Indiana Jones IV?

[Imran Siddiqui]

Really liked it.

It was good, but not great. Better than "Temple of Doom" (obvious, though). Not as good as the others. Lots of fun action... a somewhat crazy background idea (but one that has conspiracy theories behind it). Probably about a half hour too long, but it was awesome to see Indy again.

And I think it was obvious that this is the last one (part of the long length was wrapping things up a bit).

Cultural excrement.

I agree. Not as good as the originals. But not altogether horrible either. I do think the plot is a bit more fanciful and far fetched than the others. It wasn't even resolved or explained all that well.

Very ridiculous. The way the scenes connected was not well thought.

the nuclear test scene actually made a lot of sense

Now, I haven't seen the movie yet, but... really? Really?

The plot of this one is more far fetched than a magic gold-plated box that contains face-melting, electric spirits that only attack if you look at them?

More than a bunch of rocks that glow when you put them together and allow someone to say a few magic words and rip out someone's still beating heart with their bare hands?

More far fetched than a vessel that grants eternal life that only works in a specific room, surrounded by vessels that kill instantly?

It wasn't even resolved or explained all that well.

See above...

If its "religious" people give the craziness a pass .

[UnOrthOdOx]

Well, it was "religious".

Just not "Christian".

Who should have played Indy in The Last Crusade (20 years ago), The Temple of Doom (25 years ago), and in Raiders (28 years ago)?



BTW, this is how I rank the movies

1. Indy 3
2. Indy 1
3. Indy 4 (would be tied with Raiders if the topic was a tad less crazy)
4. Indy 2

make-up, lights, etc can acceptably take away 10 years.

[Straybow]

I liked it. You accept in your mind that "this could never really happen, it's just a plot for a movie" and watch the action. Certainly no worse than Temple of Doom, plotwise.

[Nikolai]

Just saw it. A very good movie. Not as good as the holy grail, but definitely a good watch.

Hmm, no worse than my least favorite one. Gee.

Ditto for me. And even though I haven't actually seen 4 yet, I think it still has to rate above 2. Heck, even Indiana Jones and the Little Green Men from Mars would be better than Temple of Doom.

Spoiler:

When Alexander I sees this movie, I think he'll understand how funny it really is

[Harovan]

No. Didn't see the other three either.

Well, IIUC, that mongrel-idiot Lucas wanted to do Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men from Mars after the Last Crusade, but Spielberg told him he was a ****** and wouldn't let him do a sequel for like 20 years.
