  • Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is knows as the bad Indiana Jones movie. But with Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm, and their the failed reception to their Star Wars sequels, they have now decided to make an Indiana Jones spin off called Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
    This movie was HEAVILY produced by Kathleen Kennedy which caused both Steven Spielberg and George Lucas to leave the project, and with good reason as Indiana Jones 5 seems to be another bad Indiana Jones sequel.
    But which sequel is worse, Indiana Jones 4 or Indiana Jones 5?

    DOD erased everything that ended CS with a happy ending! Just imagine if the movie had started out with an adult Short Round, who still wears his baseball cap AND who himself was now an archaeologist! He always saw Indy as a father figure and perhaps he felt inspired by him. He finds something mysterious and decides to seek out Indy after losing contact for the past 20 years. Indy is now head of the university and has become somewhat wealthy and famous after writing several books about his adventures over the years, which would have been later adapted into the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles. Him and Marion are thriving and Mutt has become much more mature with him and Indy on good terms now. Maybe he comes along for the ride? Anyway, Shorty and Indy have a very happy reunion and he manages to convince Indy into one last adventure after he privately confides to him that hes been thinking of retirement. Maybe Mutt becoming a father and his age be a motivator? They go on an adventure together and they have a touching moment in the middle. The movie ends with Indy's retirement and him taking his fedora off and putting it on Shorty's head, as a symbol of passing the torch to a younger generation. Similar to the beginning of The Last Crusade. NOW THAT would have been a trihumph! I would have loved it! It would have been so easy! What do you think?

    If we’re being honest, Disney had this coming. For so many years, fans have been trying to get them to understand that they didn’t like the movie or show that was released due to poor ratings, quality and writing. And people have been asking Disney to focus on telling an original story and making sure that they are being respectful to the fans of a beloved franchise. But instead, what did Disney do? They accused the people who were criticizing the movies and shows of being racist, sexist, Russian bots and so much more.

    I actually like Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Yeah, it's not perfect, but it at least has some memorable moments like the communist motorcycle chase around the college campus, the giant killer ants, the sandpit scene where Mutt has to rescue Indy with a snake, and of course, the nuclear bomb scene.

      People can say what they want about Crystal Skull (I enjoyed it for what it was), at least Indy still felt like Indy and the ending when he takes his hat back from his son was gold. Also, I never had a problem with the idea of aliens being in the Indiana Jones universe. If you're going to have an ark that melts your face, or the fountain of youth, you might as well have aliens in there at that point. The filmmakers at least tried to make it fit within the universe. It's also not like there haven't been theories about aliens helping to build our civilization or being worshipped as gods. You could've easily called Crystal Skull "Indiana Jones and The Chariots of The Gods" (a little nod to Erich von Däniken's novel and claims). I also give the film leeway because I've always been interested in Von Daniken's claims, primarily since I first got into the Stargate franchise (which also dealt with a crystal skull in one episode). Also, nice to see you on here, Hewy. I really enjoyed your content back in the "fellow in the coat" days.

      It’s a good movie. I think most of the hatred of the film comes from group think. Most of the stupid things that people complain about in crystal skull are present in the previous movies. They just come off better because the original trilogy are better shot, edited, directed, and they can just be themselves. CS has to compete with 3 excellent films. If you think that aliens are a worldbreaking or shark jumping, you’re making up rules. It totally makes sense, the concept of ancient aliens is a very well explored concept in fiction, and it could be better done is CS, but it’s serviceable IMO. I hear nobody actually complain about HOW they did it, only that they did it. It’s infuriating.

    To me, no sentence sums up the problem with modern Hollywood than what Eric inferred: "This movie cost $300 million, and yet I can barely remember anything about it. Not because too much happens and you get lost in it, but because it felt like practically nothing happened."
    By contrast, there was a $5 million Studio film (not even Indi) from 2018 called "Upgrade" -- It was smartly written, featured some intense twists, the acting was great, the cinematography was solid and the editing was great, and even just after my first viewing of the movie, I was able to have full conversations with my film friends about why I loved it, and this was a Studio film that cost only 1/60th of Indy 5!
    This comparison also illustrates an interesting Older vs Newer dynamic: Older movies were legitimate entertainment, just sometimes badly (or, frankly, horribly) done, whereas a lot of modern movies feel like mere content, like they're just hoping people will like it enough to buy the BluRay and then tell their friends "Oh yeah - that movie was pretty cool."

      Say whatever you want about the movie Kingdom of The Crystal Skull & you can hold the “Nuking The Fridge” or “Monkey Swinging Scene” all day long but it at least was both appropriate to the era and seemed a bit more of what actually would have if he were in his 60s. Also while I don’t consider Indie & Mutt as father & son…but as a Mentor to Mentee dynamic was actually excellently.

    Dial of Dysentery makes Kingdom of the Crystal Skull look like a masterpiece. Thing is that there are flaws with Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. But the same sense of adventure was there. Dial of Destiny is yet another half assed deconstruction of a beloved hero. And Dial undoes one of the best parts of Kingdom...Indy's marriage to Marion. Then there is the great Poob in the room and that is that Phoebe Waller Bridge's Helena Shaw was so insufferable. You hit the nail on the head regarding the "failed male character" trope. Han Solo, Luke, Indy...all of them follow a similar trajectory. Jeremy Jahns pointed this out too saying if you tried this kind of copy/paste in school the teacher would tell you that you couldn't do that and tell you to do it over.

    I didn't like Crystal Skull as a kid, and thought the inclusion of aliens was too far out there for me, but after 15 years, I finally gave the film a re-watch. One where I had a fresh mindset and decided to give it another chance, and I gotta say, I really enjoyed it much more now, and I don't mind the inclusion of aliens here since it makes sense to use them given when the movie is set. My only issue with the aliens is when we actually see the alien at the end after all the skulls come together, and this is because the first movies, namely Raiders and Temple, wisely chose to not actually show the main supernatural forces, in their case God and Shiva, and I think that the final scene where Spalko is killed would have been better if we didn't see it, or at least not a full glimpse of it. That said, I haven't seen DoD yet, and I'm glad I haven't

    I never understood the hate for Kingdom of Crystal Skull. It's just as great as the original trilogy, although The Last Crusade remains the best Indiana Jones movie. As for Dial of Destiny, I enjoyed parts of the movie, the 1944 and the 1952 flashbacks, New York scenes, Antonio Banderas, Indy talking about Mutt's death (Harrison Ford acted greatly in this scene) and the ending with Marion was well acted. Still, the movie was an unnecessary addition to the franchise. I don't mind seeing an older Indiana Jones, but why making him miserable? And like how it was told the video, why not make it a story about a father and a son? Just recast Mutt, put him as a CIA agent, who asks Indy help and Indy has a final adventure and make amends with his son and could also meet his grandchild, like what happened with Rocky in Creed 2.

    Good thing Star Wars Legends is a good back up universe for the Star Wars franchise than Disney’s continuity, which if Disney was competent they would just decanonize the latter and make animated film adaptations out of the Expanded Universe novels and video games. Unfortunately, unless Lucasfilm is sold back to George Lucas or to another company, Disney won’t be the decision makers for that potential redo. Universal Pictures I think could do Star Wars and Marvel justice. Because I’m done giving Disney chances.

      No problem buddy. 😊 I only saw the first episode. And I found it so boring it was unbelievable. I usually love hearing about politics in Star Wars. Most specifically with The Clone Wars, Rebels and The Bad Batch.
      Which is why I was so disappointed to find that it was done in a very dry and boring way in Andor.
      I do intend to continue watching it at some point. But not right now.

    I personally don't know why people hate the fourth Indiana Jones film.
    I mean people obsess over CGI versus practical, but honestly it's all fake and really doesn't bother me, unless it's like, the Flash CGI levels of bad.
    Now I hadn't seen any Indiana Jones films until I was in my early twenties.
    I marathoned all 4 of them and enjoyed each one equally.
    As for the "bad" of Crystal Skull, the second film had crazy ritual pulling hearts out of people while they're still alive after and one of them had skydiving with an inflatable raft.
    Each film had really stupid ridiculous things in them that fans just over look.

    I think Scream at this point could benefit from alternate timelines similar to Halloween if done right. Like a Scream 1996 requel that ignores 2-6 that has a reunion with Sidney, Dewey, Randy, and Gale. I know the requel thing is over done, but trust me the requel thing can be done right under good filmmakers. By the way, Scream (2022) is NOT a requel. A requel usually ignores certain films in a long running franchise like H20 ignoring 4-6 or 2018 only considering 1978’s Halloween canon in its continuity.

    Indiana was someone who’d always claim that a historical object belongs in a Museum yet destroys them to knock down the villains? One good thing they did for Indiana was have him go through the streets of that one country they went to in the car chase through random little side streets and was able to figure out exactly where he knew to go and appeared right behind the villains car

I was surprised on how you compared Indy 5 to M:I 7 Part 1 whilst talking about the boys v.s. girls mentality trope, in which I watched the latter with my brother and mother, it was a way amazing movie compared to Indy 5, especially the scene where Tom Cruise jumps from a mountain cilff with a motorcycle.

    35:10 I know this is a show, but Star Trek: Picard did the same thing to it's titular character in it's first season and no one liked that either.
    But when Season 3 came out, Picard is treated with more respect and in the last 2 episodes he, the rest of the Next Gen crew and even the Enterprise D herself have to save the galaxy from the Borg who have assimilated the younger members.
    The show started off by humiliating it's older male lead while putting the newer characters on a pedestal, but it ends with the younger characters getting villainized and Picard and the rest of the old guard save the day and live.
