    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    I saw this for the second time. I had difficulty following the logic of the movie. I think it got worse on the second viewing. This is definitively my least favorite of the Indy films.

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    I feel like I have no desire to see this a second time so soon. I can easily wait another year.

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Spoilers. The special thing is that the Nazis couldn't make the atomic bomb in time, now they can have it. The movie is not made for Indiana Jones but for us. So maybe that meant a lot for Indy but that doesn't mean it's interesting for the audiences. Nazis getting the atomic bomb is a more...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Spoilers. I think I cracked the code! I was watching the Oppenheimer trailer and thought how easy and obvious the story for Indy 5 is! It's right in front of us! Instead of the bad guy going to kill Hitler which makes no sense, the bad guy wants to go back in time to give the Nazis the plans for...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    You know I wasn't big on the idea of bringing back old characters just because of nostalgia, but more I think about it, it would have been fun. It would be a fish out of water situation. Like as you say maybe Short Round is a high rank researcher and not at all into adventures and going out...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Full spoilers. I was thinking about the movie and how the ending could have been satisfying. Why go to that time? Nobody cares. It's far off and it's not personal to us. I think it would have been a lot better if they actually went back to 1939-1945. And to make it special, there shouldn't be...

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    It's different, it's not a visual effect shot. It's a real closeup shot, they could have used a real rope. They must have forgotten or had no plan of having a rope when they shot it and later changed it. I also noticed the long shot of the train with the guy running on the top. The guy was...

    Well it was no stuntman, it was Harrison Ford and he was sitting down, doing nothing. So there was no danger. It was such a closeup that a CG rope was very distracting.

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    At the very beginning, Indy has a rope around his neck and the rope was CG! That was strange. Why not use a real rope!

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    All that is a nice explanation but this is not real life or a Drama. It's a fantasy adventure and a little respect for Indy and a better life would have been nicer to watch and to end the series. We watch this to escape not to sob.

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    Didn't people find this too sad? Did we need to see Indy in his underwear in a bad shape in an apartment? Since he is an adventurer, wouldn't it been nice and more logical to see him on a nice little farm or house, with a little antique collection? That would make more sense. Also seeing Sallah...

    By the way, what was the main goal?

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    I thought they stopped some scenes without showing the "money shot" which was jarring for me.

    You say it like you had the control to pause it, rewind it, fast forward it! :D

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    That's kind of a huge spoiler and I don't understand why they say it. Should not be repeated anywhere.

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    On the first viewing I enjoyed it more than the Crystal Skull. I thought it kind of felt small and unnecessarily a little too sad. Bring something to protect your ears. These things are loud! I'm glad I had special music ear plugs. It didn't take 5 minutes for me to use them.

    I have not followed closely and getting my ticket. Does this have 3D presentation?

    Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

    If you need a little boost, watch this. When it says no spoilers, it really means it. Nothing more than the promotional materials are given. Not even the plot is given.

    Wrong. Indy will use his whip to take his gun off.
