Spielberg grew up watching serials and movies from the 30’s and 40’s. He was trying to copy and innovate on that style and those creatives. Kinda feels like these franchises, whether it’s this or Star Wars or anything that’s been around, are being given to fans of the franchise and not fans of what inspired the franchise. This cinematography lacked the charm of a Spielberg film- sometimes they’d have it but the blocking and editing was so by the numbers for me, Raiders and Temple are like…pause it every shot or reframe and you’ve got a really cool looking pulpy book cover. Plus the camera moved with a flow and purpose, this was like constantly cutting and a lot of boring basic medium shots. Just felt unimaginative visually and somehow exhausting at the same time

What's been happening in the last decade though is that Williams hasn't had access to said scripts or footage - either because Lucasfilm was keeping it under lock and key because of "lol, spoilers!" or as has been far more frequent in their projects, the scenes were needing to be completely re-written and reshot all the way down to the last minute. So it's a situation where either Williams has no idea what's supposed to be going on in a given scene or what the mood of the scene is supposed to be, or the original scene which he used for the basis of his score got completely rewritten or junked entirely.

I thought the soundtrack was as expected. He couldn't really do much more than do Indiana Jones music again, and with a movie this messy there was no way his music could possibly be better than previously because it takes music to make a great movie, and a great movie to make a great soundtrack memorable.

The "cancelled streaming show" multiverse could actually be a really fun premise.

Some more observations: 1) Originally I thought a younger Indy being depicted was pretty cool and clever given how it was apparent that time-travel was integral to the plot. It's also a pretty effective way of avoiding having to confront the fact that Harrison Ford is technically an octogenarian at this point in his life. Ironically though, we only see him younger in a flash-back not via time-travel. Wasted opportunity? I guess it goes with the theme still somewhat? 2) There was a mention when Indy was opening up emotionally about his regrets and how certain mistakes left him in a state of grief and it seems obvious that the time-travel element could have played a role here in his personal redemption. Seems like a missed opportunity and this little excursion in the plot ended up being of little importance, as for some reason, the conflict between he and his ex (Marion) just suddenly and inexplicably resolved itself at the end. It was shoehorned in more so as a warm and fuzzy sentimental nostalgic moment. Felt cheap. Like pretty lazy writing without any pay-off. If you are going to plant a seed, then reap something from it! 3) His goddaughter was pretty messily written. You can generously chalk it up to her eccentricity or enigmatic nature but it at first wasn't well established why she didn't hold the same reverence and awe in the mystique of these ancient artifacts that her father had. She obviously was greatly influenced by him and was a sort of apprentice - so it is strange that she would not inherit that same passion or admiration. She ended up having this self-serving attitude of vanity - treating these objects as a means for material gain. If the story had established some sort of rift or animosity between the father and daughter, then this would make sense of her motivation. It would perhaps be her way of acting out of spite or rebellion. Also, her actual character arc is pretty baffling. I don't know why she goes from fairly callous regarding the fate of others (or the world itself for that matter) to becoming so attached and invested as to risk life and limb in ridiculous stunts. I don't understand what is driving her as a sympathetic heroine rather than as the loathsome opportunist she was established as. It just sort of happened without warning and was unrewarding.

Its unfortunate that these movies have missed the opportunity of character development with Indy finally using a snake as a whip.

Fun Fact: When Helena punched Indiana unconscious, she actually killed him. He was already weak from being shot and she just finished him off. The rest of the movie is the last of his brain firing up an hallucination. That's why he's suddenly home seeing his close friend, and also that rather unpleasant woman that he's been traveling with. He's suddenly back together with Marion, his one true love. As his brain blinks out and he succumbs to death, he reaches for his hat, a representation of his long and unfulfilled life.

It would have been slightly better if instead of Luke, it had been some other Jedi. Of course, this still wouldn't solve the issue of how Grogu leaving Din turns out to be a non-event because he returns SO quickly. For me, Mando was over once they blew up the Razor Crest. No more bounty hunting, no more new locations and new characters. It's become the next season of Clone Wars. If I'd seen Clone Wars, I suppose might be more excited, but the writing and direction are awful. Andor was terrific, I just wish Diego's Luna's performance wasn't so restrained.

Everything I've heard and seen from Alien Covenant makes me think anyone who actually watched that dumpster fire all the way through would retroactively become more positive towards Prometheus for simply not being as terrible. Prometheus remains the most annoyingly uneven movie I've ever seen; the difference in competence between the script and the directing/cinematography is enough to give you whiplash.

@@korganrocks3995 but my point is that it wasn't retroactive positivity - they enjoyed it enough when they first saw it, and if anything, their views on it only improved. And I didn't think the movie was amazing or anything, but the problems people have with it are extremely nitpicky, or they are just straight up wrong. It's like they watched some shitty Cinemasins video on it and just regurgitated everything that they heard from that. Stuff like "why didn't they run sideways?" and the answer is - the main girl did run sideways, Charlize didn't. That's why she died and the other girl lived. That's like the whole point of that scene. Or "why did the map guy get stuck in the caves?" Because there was a huge storm outside. Like, where could he have gone lol? If people didn't like it, that's totally understandable. But the criticisms I always hear about it make me think that people that hate the movie didn't even watch it

@@byers31303 I'd hardly say their views on it improved, but that takes us back to my original statement. I tend to mainly rewatch BotW, so I doubt I'll stumble upon some random conversations about Prometheus any time soon in one of their videos. As for the nitpicky critisism, we'll have to agree to disagree, because when I watched it I was baffled by the absolute idiocy of basically every single character, as well as the "I'm 14 and this is deep" overarching philosophy of the movie. Also, the whole idea of aliens kickstarting life on earth is pointless in a religous/philosophical sense, since all that does is push back the origin of life to when those aliens first evolved. It's a solution that doesn't actually answer the question. PS. I don't know about other people, but I was annoyed that the map guy got lost in the first place, not that he got stuck in the caves. Also that the biologist got scared of dead aliens but wanted to pet the scary live alien snake.

I think the perfect ending to Indiana Jones would be that he finally got his prize artifact put in a museum. The last scene would be him in the museum sitting back with a smile on his face as people enjoyed looking at the artifact.

They did the perfect ending, they literally shot a scene of him riding into the sunset. That wasn't an accident. It's just Lucas got a massive ego blow with the prequels and wanted to show he still had it with making another Indy... He did not "have it".

​@@SpicyWeiner777It works narratively too, as it was set up. That on this adventure, Indy left this treasure buried, too dangerous to be brought back and instead let go of it, his family and friends were more important. The new lease on life he gave his dad from the grail was also his as well, given that his dad saved him. Riding off into the sunset was a strong image to end on as to point out that its the journey with your loved ones and not always the destination that matters most.

I think (among the wealth of absurdity) the dumbest thing the Nazis did in ancient Greece was forget that planes don't have to fly 50 feet above the ground.

I don't know much about planes so correct me if i'm off the mark with this but didn't they say they only had enough fuel to make it to their original destination thus not enough to go back through the hole?
