What saved Hitler from the bomb in Project Valkyrie was someone moving it a couple of feet away from where it originally was placed. Also the bomb was under a big heavy wooden table so the table took the brunt of the blast.
If I remember right, the concrete bunker would have like amplified the blast. Idk I need to rewatch that movie.
Also, the Mutt in Vietnam jokes were hysterical Tony & Johanna! 🤣🤣🤣
How was that funny?
It would've been fun if, instead of the paramount logo turning into a mountain, we would've gotten the disney castle turning into the nazi castle. Not sure why Disney didn't do that...
Tony is so Famous his personal call to Vito is a spoiler
Spoiler: Vito called me while I shot this.
@@HackTheMovies Keep this bit going, it will make you even more famous!
@@Jay828__ More famous than Crystal?
Only time will tell.
Space Cat is S-Tier panelist.
I like to think Mutt was hanging around with Elias and Barnes . Then him and Richard Pryor get captured and become POW’s
It worked best in Tron Legacy where the "young version" was a computer program so it looking computery worked.
It would have worked perfectly if they didn't show the young version of Flynn in the real world at the start.
General consensus that I've gotten so far is that it's "okay." The fact that Shia is just dead is kind of amusing tho.
I'm just hoping it's at least better than crystal skull.
Best part I've heard
Need more Space Cat...she's magnificent!
Space Cat is so floofy and cute!!
While it would have been too late to do this now, here's an idea. They should have combined the search for a holy relic with one of the last great conquests of the heroic age of exploration. In other words, if the final Indiana Jones movie had taken place in the 50s, they could have had him retrieving or finally hiding a relic on Mount Everest before passing away. The Asylum knockoff could have set it on the moon. Also we need Mutt 'n Nam.
Brendan Frasier's Journey to the Centre of the earth should have been an Indy Movie if they did it in the 90s they could have even used the dinosaurs from the Lost World.
@@mesicek7agreed
Tonys channel be thriving,
Whilst james channel be dying
mini-episode with space cats hisses and meows edited in as commentary
When I saw the movie in a packed theater it was so silent even the crickets shut up. Not one laugh, not one audible comment. Not even cell phones being turned on. Everyone was as bored and zoned out as I was from this utter piece of garbage of a film.
The difference between the CGI Chase Scenes in Indiana Jones & the practical Chase Scenes in Mission Impossible are night and day. More studios should be doing these things practical.
At least John Williams never disappoints with his score
He's one of the greatest composers of all time for a reason lol
I did not know the new spider-verse was two parts until I started wondering how they were going to wrap it up due to length
I thought it was gonna three parts
No hack the movies on Threads?
I don't even like regular twitter. Why would I join a twitter run by facebook?
@@HackTheMovies To spite Elon. C"mon! You're so famous now you can make a difference.
@@Alfador42Oh, so you’re one of those people. 🙄
The thing that gets me is that Helena would have been a villain in the other Indiana Jones movies. I mean, how many times did Indy say “that belongs in a museum” in The Last Crusade? Yet here comes Helena, trying to steal Indy’s half of the Dial so she can sell it and make a quick buck. They really tried to replace Indy with a character that doesn’t have his charisma or morals, and is basically his polar opposite…
In the temple of doom, he's willing to sell the remains of an emporer in exchange for some diamonds.
@@HackTheMovies Well, he was hired by Lao Che specifically to find those remains. Sure, that isn’t exactly noble of him, but we also don’t know if those diamonds had some historical value themselves or were just regular diamonds. Either way, he was fulfilling a deal he made with Lao Che prior to the start of Temple Of Doom.
But yeah, it is a bit of a plothole to show Indy trading the remains of an emperor to a crime boss, then in the next movie say that he had been adamant about preserving historical artifacts since he was a teenager.
@HackTheMovies That's true, but by the end of the movie he brings the Sankara Stone back to the village, signifying a change of heart. It's also worth pointing out that TOD is actually the first movie chronologically.
The bad guy was not trying to recruit the waiter; he was putting him down.
I found Dial of Destiny to be "fine and fun," and also unnecessary. But Harrison Ford's love for the character does come through in a few scenes.
Space cat t shirt with a hack the movies logo please
The de-aging shit has to stop. It never looks good. And when you put deceased people up there it’s several steps past distasteful and disrespectful. These actors are dead, Disney. You don’t have the right to put a uncanny valley peter Cushing on screen. At least you shouldn’t. I’m practically to the point of not watching anything past 1987, that’s how sick I am of cgi. Movies suck now.
The only time I'm okay with it is if the actor died while filming a movie and they need a stand in to finish it.
Fluffy cat gets insta like
I remember when they just announced Indiana Jones 5 saying that THERE WAS NO NEED FOR A 5TH INDY MOVIE! After watching this out of morbid curiosity, I'm glad to say that I right in the first place. Worst Indiana Jones movie. Least I can consider the Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull a guilty pleasure & more enjoyable than this movie.
If I have to describe Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny in one word then it would be: *lifeless*
indys son as the gunner in full metal jacket screaming GET SOOOOOOOOOOOOME! GET SOOOOOOOOOOOOME!
That dudes roofie kit was prob in that school bag
4:42 “not that bad”?!? He must get his crack at a good price. It should be tried for crimes against humanity. Even Shia had enough sense to not star in it. Let that sink in.
Snowflake
But as they detailed, Shia seems to be getting killed off screen in all Spielberg adjacent properties because of that interview
Mutt was one of John Rambo's fellow soldiers that was killed by the shoe shine boy's bomb.
So does that mean in the big speech about being covered with pieces of his friend, that friend was Shia LaBeouf?
Gotta disagree with you on the brief James Bond comment at the beginning. Frankly, I found Bond’s reasoning perfectly logical; if I managed to hook up with Lea Seydoux once, and then knew I would never be able to hook up with her again, I also wouldn’t want to live anymore lol.
…but srsly, that last stairway scene where Bond is fucking mowing dudes down was sick af.
2:30 😂😂😂
Tony Munching on a Slice: what's the commotion over there at the stir fry hut? 😅
The ending could have been better. Indy could have used the Dial to go back and see his son Mutt, before he went to Vietnam to fight for his
country.
Before leaving, Indy gives his son a hug and tells Mutt that he loves him very much, knowing that Mutt will die as a hero, helping evacuate a Vitnamese village from the VC.
🥲
He’s not really dead unless we see a gravesite bc alot of soldiers went mis in vietnam. It’s entirely possible that he went awol and went on Indy type adventures. In fact, he could become the new Indy that way if Disney wants to revive the franchise.
@@tigertank06 even if they do revive the franchise I doubt Shia will come back.
That character sucked and they know it. Better to leave him dead.
The dial wasn't truly capable of traveling anywhere in time other than that specific fixed point (the battle of Syracuse).
With the new haunted mansion coming out you should do a review of the old haunted mansion. And compare the 2
Short Round shot Mutt in Vietnam
I'm going to watch this, and then watch Young Indiana Jones Chapter 18 Treasure of the Peacock's Eye on vhs and know that no matter how bad it might be. It will almost certainly be better than Chapter 27 The Dial of Destiny.
Only one I ever saw was The Phantom Train of Doom.
Well... let's hope James Mangold will make a great Swamp Thing. Also with 26:12 look at John Wick 3 or 4 where Keanu Reeves actually rode the horse
I'm intrigued by his dawn of the jedi star wars movie he's working on.
The cat needs its own channel 😂😂😂😂
This is Tony’s best intro to a movie review I’ve ever heard. Ambulance and all!
I went to this with my dad because he wanted to go (he paid). It was better than expected but it was too long and had a lot of boring parts.
Hay Tony your looking good in this one. And glad to see space cat.
i’ll give my money tonight to the Caviezel movie
i saw the Dial of Destiny movie a week ago and I liked it. But the end of the ended at an odd cliffhanger where you dont know if Helena time traveled to help clear Indy's name or not
Agreed.
It stinks of last minute rewrite.
Love the whole shared universe you guys got going here lol.
Tony will you be reviewing the new indie video game from Bethesda next year
When is Space Cat going to get a Twitter account?
I can't decide which was worse crystal skull or dial. Can someone clarify something for me? When the little rope Bridge breaks and the not shortround and the Big Goon fall in the water, does everyone else leave through a different exit or the same way they came in because the bridge looked intact?
The return of Space Cat!!! & side note: all you need is a Hot Topic and a GameStop.
7:50 You'd actually need to get Crystal to watch and understand a movie for her to do a wrap up.
Cancel the cancel people.
I'm here for it. The anti-snowflakes have become the snowflakes.
Can your cat be in every episode? Lol
Please review' Serial Mom'. Thank you
That cat was incredible.
I'm hoping it's at least better than crystal skull. But i don't think that this should've been made. It would've been far better if they just continued the storyline of Indy with a younger actor, like Chris Pratt or the guy from Solo and Cocaine Bear. Harrison Ford is too old.
It’s way worse. It makes CS look downright competent.
@@NinjaRunningWild I really like James Mangold's work. And I'm intrigued by his dawn of the jedi star wars movie that he's working on.
@@kdusel1991That’s fine but this is a disaster.
18:45: It's bad enough real life is depressing enough. Apparently Hollywood wants to keep reminding us of that in our favorite movies lol
Honestly didn't hate it... It wasn't that great but it wasn't bad. Crystal Skull was way worse imo.
Now I want to see a Full Muttal Jacket movie.
Indiana jones finished with The Last Crusade these last two movies were fan films
12:20 The spear did not kill Jesus. John 19:33-34
Indiana Jones can still exist. Just not as the main protagonist. As a professor, they should have and still might be able, to let him play that role. My idea for a fun IJ movie going forward. His teaching students inspires a non-related person to go on crazy adventures. Meanwhile to OG Indiana Jones, keeps going to him and his reply is, yep been there and done that. 1st act, new character being inspired, 2nd act huge failure, then seeks advise from IJ, 3rd act success. Lay in all the normal tropes we expect out of an IJ movie. There ya go. The IP continues in a way that doesn't demand Harrison Ford to be the main focus.
Agreed on the whole it’s the writing not the director I think it got messed up behind the scenes and yeah the pace of the movie just felt so all over the place I did slightly enjoy this movie I’m just glad I got to see him again in the outfit also Ford v Ferrari is great
I personally liked the movie more than Crystal skull…I was entertained
Lay off the crack.
The cat is a nice accessory
Yeah. And Simon kinberg was the person to try the phoenix saga again.
Right.
I guess failing upsets is a thing?
Not a profitable thing, but, cool..?
I won’t bother watching your video. I’ll just answer the question. It’s great!
Tapped out once you had Vito call in.
Toni calling there podcast was so funny I listened to it 20 times
It is not even remotely close to being the worst one.
Edit: Koepp is pronounced as Kepp (just pretend the “o” doesn’t exist).
I agree i actually didn't mind it and didn't really see what most people were complaining about. What do ya want Harrison is 80. 🤷♂️
@@conkerchimera Exactly! Therefore, the movie shouldn't have been made.
@@trekadam30 He wanted to do it and that's rare for him haha. Besides I had no problem with him as a character in it. I liked the "he's the puzzle solver rather than the muscle this time around" for me its Raiders, Crusade, Temple of doom, dial, crystal skull
I only saw ferrari vs Ford once in the pictures and what I can remember Matt Damon was great
The opening felt like a classic Indiana Jones film, but the rest of it simply didn't work. It should have just been the original three, but I wonder what it might have been like if they kept making them and recasting Indy like James Bond...
KITTY!
The fifth movie has no rewatchability for me. It has no depth and everything can be gleaned from one viewing. It was at times interesting, but mostly just a standard adventure with little new to offer.
Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😊
I can't believe anyone found this enjoyable. Are modern-day expectations just THAT low?
We don't have inherited knowledge anymore so people don't seem to know what quality is and accept the worst of everything. Or I'm just getting old 😅
People have been raised on social media. Do you expect them to be smart as a result?
As James Cameron said in that South Park episode about the bar being lowered, "How do you explain all the fat people on mobility scooters?! How do you explain... Honey Boo Boo?"
Yes. Modern day expectations are really that low.
The Sonic movies made bank actually doing Sonic stuff....yes the bar is that low.
Please for the love of God - MORE Spacecat reviews please
Kathleen Kennedy should be brought up on charges for what she's done to Lucasfilm.
I doubt they'll fire her though.
I hope she stays there until Lucasfilm completely burns to the ground
@Strugen. It's ashes now not much left to burn... haha
@@kdusel1991i googled her name, and see an article saying she has been fired
Phantom menace
Sounds like seeing Asteroid City this past weekend instead of this was the right call.
idk if i will even see this movie
You should.
You’re missing nothing by not & saving your time, money, & faith in humanity by avoiding it.
that spiderverse movie was way too long and couldn't wait for it to be over. I was ready to fall asleep.
I just watched this on disney plus, thought it was fun and i enjoyed every single one. Went back to this to see what yall thought at the time... i dont get the hate...this kind of hate should directed at the jurasic world series lol. They are all fun and enjoyable. I loved them going back in time with nazis. It was interesting
Phantom its like crystal skull but with lasers and more campy.
I saw it at the drive-in and because of the so-so image quality I could not really see the flaws of the CGI so I guess it helped the experience. Ok movie 6/10
Sounds like the Berkshire mall
First off, Tony looks like the sleazy boss from Plumbers Don't Wear Ties.
Second, to answer Tony's question from another review as to why people all of a sudden hate Katleen Kennedy even though she was involved with classic films like OG Star Wars, Spielberg stated that Katleen was nothing more than a assistant and not a very good one. Katleen would even interrupt conversations between Spielberg and Lucas by inputting stupid ideas like if the protagonist gets the dog instead of the girl.
Space Cat loves Johanna.
41:50 Tonyanna Jones and the Disappeared Cat
What they should do with Indy is to re-cast with a younger actor and reboot the series in 10-15 years. And have it maybe take place in the 20's or 30's. Indy(I think)works best in that time period.
There was a 90s show that did that.
23:13 I think you’re _way_ off base there Tony. I’m pretty sure he was just taunting him.
I wanna fly to NJ and hang out at dying/abandoned malls hoping to run into tony now😅
00:04:20 “that movie fuckin sucked!” - it is the phrase that has defined cinema in 2023
Should have just done Last Crusade again but Indiana Jones as old Indiana Jones and Mutt/Short Round as young Indiana Jones. Have them going after the Spear Of Destiny. Done. I'll take my payment by cheque please
Y’all gotta do a anaconda movie review since y’all did lake placid
Wait.. I am just finding out NOW that we could have had a live cat in these videos this entire time?
Betrayal.
Now you have set a new standard. I expect at least 1 feline in every video from hence forth.
Let it be done.
Mutt was killed going up river to kill colonel Kurtz
Fleabag is overrated.
Soon as they claimed Fleavag wasn't terrible I turned the review off
Johanna's annoying as hell anyway
I've said this before in discussions about elderly reboots, they just need to switch focus a little bit, if Indiana was still a badass, but cognisant of his physical body failing because he's ancient, kind of like what Clint Eastwood did in Gran Torino but less of him beating people up, and more using his head. Yes, it wouldn't be a classic Indiana Jones movie like the good ones, but it might actually be a good movie on its own. Trying to shoehorn a geriatric actor into a movie with lots of excitement and action but having to add a younger actor to pick up the slack because the primary is fucking old backfires almost always.
Edit: They also always have these old people down in the dumps for whatever stupid reason, why can't they be successful, do the writers really hate boomers so much that they want them to be miserable.
The worst.
Indiana Woke and the Diahorea of disenchantment is the disastrous box office of doom
Was a good movie and your opinion is 🗑 lol
@@ryandilts9654 Watch some real movies.
They call it Indy 5 because that’s what it is out of 10. The film is a 5/10. Just very average. The McGuffin isn’t fun and is actually retarded. There’s no logic begin how it works at all. It detects rifts in time? But nobody in 2,000 years with modern tech was able to detect them by any other means? Why do the Nazis think that rift would take them to 1939? And why would it conveniently be that one rift right near them at the exact moment they retrieved the dial? Why did the portal open to 213?
YAY Space Cat
