    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Holy moly! “I kind of liked that the violence in this one had weight and consequence, and wasn't played as cartoonishly as some of the other movies.” I actually darkly chucked at the part where they are on the boat and get away and get away and PWB gives like a “yah hoo!!!” reaction and Indy...

    Dirtier character in Fleabag. Literal first scene in the series is when she’s with a guy and he “ooppsies” it into her “wrong” orifice

    I was expecting to see a lot more “milage” on his body that we saw. Kind of weird hearing Beatles and Bowie songs. Having “Magical Mystery Tour” as part of the soundtrack in an Indy movie and seemed a wee bit on the nose though, Space Oddity as well, but a little more subtle

    I’m kind of in agreement, it was ok, but I definitely thought it was missing something, charm maybe Also while I didn’t have any real issue with the de-aging on Ford, couldn’t they have done something to de-age his voice for those scenes. LFL was able to do it for Darth Vader

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    My theory on that is that they knew the movie was bad so they showed it at Cannes to get the bad word of mouth out early with the hopes it would dissipate by the time of the general release

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Despite the many flaws of the PT, there are two main differentiators of that to the ST. One is that at least Lucas had a story in mind going into the project (it’s been revealed they the ST didn’t even have a basic outline). Two is that episode III more or less stuck the landing...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Ok fine let’s just get down to brass tacks. Is the franchise better or worse under Disney. Again at least IMO the sequel trilogy was ultimately disappointing. First two Mandolorian season were good but hearing only lukewarm things about S3. Never ever bothered to finish Book of Boba Fett. Andor...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Yeah I knew that would be unpopular with some. But is it really believed that KK just rubber stamps the direction of these films? She’s the boss. Whatever happens ultimately rests on her shoulders. Her first real test, the Star Wars sequel trilogy was ultimately crummy. Then we found out that...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Maybe, maybe not. I’m defiantly not sensing large swells of anticipation (that even Crystal Skull got) on this one. Paired with tepid reviews and some might just decide to wait until it streams. Maybe it meets studio expectations, But I’m not sure I see it overperforming (then again a lot of...

    Not to start a thing, but am I way off base on some of the quotes (paraphrasing of course, I’m not trying to make false statements)

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    I don’t think it’s entirely unheard of for that to sometimes happen. And sometimes it’s even perpetuated by the filmmakers. I mean no one ever had a problem with Ellen Ripley, Sarah Connor, Princess Leia, Laurie Strode etc. but going back a bit take Ghostbusters 2016 and negative reaction came...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Yes, but in this case coupled with rumors of disasterous test screening. Not sure how much is true but……

    Yeah I know. I never stated the actual chronological order in which he encountered those objects, just that he found them at some point and saw their powers

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Maybe when he was younger, but since then he had seen the religious artifact the art of the covenant and first hand witnessed its power, he had seen the the religious artifact the Shankara stones and first hand witnessed their power, you’d think he’d understand more in his older years about his...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    it always bugged me in Last Crusade when Indy tells Henry he never understood his obsession of finding the holy grail when the beginning of the movie literally showcases his lifelong obsession at that point to acquire the cross of Coronado

    why controversial? He fought Nazis in two previous movies and it wasn’t a problem then?

    Pity, I figured he’d have at least three more in him

    Just cut the losses and pull the plug in this thing. There a few big movies like this that I have seen that have the amount of red flags of disaster that this seems to have.

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    yeah, I didn’t really recognize the source so I thought it was kind of suspicious, but I didn’t find it wholly unbelievable either because there have been legit sources reporting that Ford’s injury was worse than initially let on

    like I said, don’t kill the messenger. It’s just some internet gossip I’ve heard. I’m not really familiar with her work, so I can’t make an educated assessment.

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    To me, the OT is different due to the fact that no one knew if there was going to be a trilogy. What became ANH ended so that the story could continue but the movie was wrapped up in a satisfying way. TFA introduced all these little “mystery boxes” without apparently any thought as to their...

    I don’t think Kennedy is above criticism, but yeah, the harassment/death threats and all that is garbage humanity

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Yeah, I am sick of the perpetual “Kennedy is out any day now” Kennedy has the job as long as she wants it. Even if she was hated by the Board She’s way too connected to be unceremoniously let go (she was pretty much handpicked by Lucas to be the successor). But I still maintain that the SQ...
