Was the new indiana jones movie that bad??

[QUOTE="A_Tarkovsky"]It's certainly not terrible. I was disappointed, but there was still quite a bit to like.blazinpuertoroc

Yeah I kinda think that was out of place and so was that

[spoiler] scene where the son was swinging from vine to vine [/spoiler]

Anywho it was still a good movie, but Raiders of the Lost Ark and the Last Crusade were better(through I was pretty much expecting that). However I did enjoy it more then Temple of Doom.

People were ready to pounce on it regardless

It was a good movie, that played perfectly like an Indiana Jones flick

Besides, most critics liked that trashy Simpsons movie

Just goes to show how much reliance you should have on "critic" opinions

It wasn't a terrible movie, per se. It's just when it's held up to the original trilogy that the movie isn't that good.

Plus, the basic premise of the movie, which moves from the mythological and historical elements of the original trilogy to random sci-fi, is a bit of a letdown.

The ending was horrificFrostyPhantasm

Not all of the ending was bad(at least to me)

[spoiler] I like the part where the son pick up the hat, and then Indy take it from him while he is passing by, with the "not yet" expression lol [/spoiler]

People need to realize this is Indiana Jones, NOT the Matrix

It's not supposed to be profound, you're not supposed to spend time thinking about the riddles. Indy gets a riddle, he solves it 2 seconds later, and the story progresses

I can't see how anybody could call any part of the movie "horrific"

I think spielberg/lucas perserved the Indy atmosphere perfectly. And this is from someon who didn't care for the Star Wars prequels 2&3.

Boltybolt

In retrospect, I like the Star Wars prequels. They're still better than most movies out there. Same thing I went through with Jurassic Park. It really stood the test of time I thought. I'm wondering how Indy 4 will do. It needed to make some kind of strange sense. If it did, I didn't get it, lol.

[QUOTE="Ryo_Kensen"]I liked it, but a lot of people didn't like the ending. Or Shia LeBouf.Serraph105

i thought Shia was a great addition to the cast actually which really surprised me cause i was totally expecting to hate on him

I know, it's still kind of weird seeing Shia as anyone other than Louis Stevens. As for the movie, I liked it. It was a nice, fun romp around with Indiana Jones. I haven't seen the original three in forever and the aliens is a bit off from them, but it's a good movie. It's really not that bad.
