Ok SO some people have asked my why I hate the new Indy movie soo soo much. This will contain spoilers, but this movie was an obvious piece of crap from the start so i don't see what i could spoil besides George and Steve's plan to steal $10 from you ( Read more... )

Except King Solomon's mines had Richard Chamberlain and Sharon Stone when she was sexy.

This had old harrison ford and an old and frumpy marion.

Sorry I'd have picked richard chamberlain and sharon stone (pre-90's) any day.

Friends have told me that my expectations were too high when I went to see the movie...

Well duh! 10 bucks, plus a 19 year wait does tend to up the expectations.

Iron man earned my 10 bucks, (7.50 matinee actually) Indiana jones and the crystal shitty kingdom of greyskull didn't.

Of course your expectations were high! It's directed by steven speilberg and it stars the most awsome movie hero character of all time!

Instead you got a sad attempt at squeezing money out of this franchise after 19 years.

I went into Indy 4 with low, low expectations. I left almost delighted ( ... )

i though it really sad that they decided to start shooting this in october...when national treasure was set to come out. Being that they both went looking for the city of gold.

I felt worse when national treasure 2 was better

Indy 4 was such a pile of horseshit

This is 100% true, the story in book of secrets was 100x better and that's a sad sad thing.

Watch ths... in 5 minutes I'll come up with a better story that incorporates elements they used but works better ( ... )

Except even Connery didn't want to be involved in this PoS.

He'd do League...but not Indy 4. Tells you something...

There are a ton of well known/ not well known artifacts he could have been going after that didn't involve little grey men in flying saucers.

It would have made more sense if he was searching for the lost magic bullet from the kenedy assasination, despite the fact that it hadn't happened yet. The russians could have a time machine, but natzi's are chasing him and it goes back in time to a galaxy far far away and he runs into Jar Jar, who guides him to the tomb of the cloned emperor under the capital of the new republic. Luckily Chuck Norris shows up and kicks the emperor's ass, then roundhouse kicks Indy to 1963 where he's able to recover the magic bullet right after kennedy gets shot. That shit would have been a better movie.

I expected something remotely close to the first 3 films. Like ballpark. Think, instead of this movie they could have done something more useful and entertaining like find the cure for hang-nails.

This was more than campy, it had more camp than the boyscouts. Lucas should have realized that no one has liked anything he's done with aliens in the last 25 years.

My only hope at this point is that Shia Laboeuf takes over as Indy and is crushed early on in filming of the next movie by a giant boulder.
