Indiana Jones 5 Destroyed - The Final Nail In Lucasfilm's Coffin

Ойындар

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny was the final gamble for Kathleen Kennedy and Lucasfilm. With every other franchise and property already sunk, it was their last shot at success. And if the first batch of reviews are anything to go by, the gamble didn't pay off.

    Crystal Skull main problem is that it has a good first half, but when the characters arrive to the jungle the whole movie falls apart. Not to mention the bad CGI, less violence than the original trilogy and bad attempts at comedy. It could have been better, but I know some people who liked it, but it seems like this new movie will try to distance itself from that and if the leaks are true it will alienate fans of the original trilogy and even the few fans of the fourth one, kind like what happened with The Rise of Skywalker, a movie that pleased no one

    thats how i feel. after LAST CRUSADE, it was over. come on.. LAST crusade? it's done! crystal skull wasnt horrible... but it was boring. this new one i wont touch. the games werent any better years back lol. the arcade game was kinda good. the nintendo game sucked. the super nintendo trilogy of movies rolled into 1 game was pretty ok though. i just bought the trilogy's posters and put'em on my walls. but.. i still wont go see #5. nope. they're purposely, i believe, ruining movies now. also, seems to me, they're gettin rid of all the white male characters. in movies.. AND games now im noticing. oh, there was a pc game years back, he was in china, it was really good! they were to make a new game but.. never turned up. also, for those not in the know, indiana jones was a 25 chapter story. believe it or not, temple of doom comes BEFORE raiders! temple of doom is chapter 23, raiders is chapter 24, last crusade is chapter 25 AND the last chapter. so, indiana jones ended at last crusade. dont give a damn who agrees or pretends cyrstal skull and dial of dookie is "canon" - it isnt.

    I am one of the weirdos that liked Kingdom of the Crystal Skull despite its shortcomings. Seeing Indie pick up the hat at the end with a smug smile on his lips made me feel like "Nah, you are not the next, Kiddo... Yet." It made me hope that we get maybe a father son type of deal going similar to Indie and his dad in the next movie. Maybe not with Shia but a different Actor. Hell maybe even Shia, who cares. The dude can act, he just needs good direction. It could have been such a natural way for things to flow since Crystal Skull already set up that Indie had a natural successor by simple Biology alone. But noooo instead they gotta make it a completely new character. Not even the perhaps in-law of the son. No some completely new god damn character.

    I already knew long before there was even talks of an Indiana Jones movie. Disney is creatively bankrupt so they go and resurrect more successful older franchises in the hopes that they can bank off of nostalgia but in the process they infest it with THE MESSAGE and so it fails miserably. I had a feeling a potential Indiana Jones movie would fare no different as Disney is hellbent on destroying the old characters and replacing them with their inferior new characters who only exist as self inserts or as political props.

    They should’ve made a movie about a happily retired Indiana Jones living in a small town. He drinks coffee at the local diner with the other old men, and goes fishing with his grandkids. And then comes the caper to find some local treasure. He can’t run or throw a punch anymore, but that’s part of a charm. The towns folk join in this unlikely adventure, which comes to a successful and happy, upbeat ending. It would be a small, toned down film to match Indy’s 80 year old capabilities.

Edit: To the people commenting on here to tell me to chill because I haven't seen the movie yet, oh you poor innocent children. Even if you're correct and I haven't seen it, what does it matter when the critics are already calling it bad and confirming the fears that a lot of us already had about them bringing Indy back for movie #5? And also given the track record with LucasFilm after the failures of Boba Fett, Obi Wan, Willow, and the latest season of the Mandalorian, what makes you think any of us can trust them to do right by Indiana Jones?

    “The Last Crusade” was it “4” could have worked if the Crystal Skulls were the actual ones instead of shaped like aliens…they could have been alien, but not odd shaped. Karen Allen was a nice nostalgic touch in the last one…why not tie that up? Shia LeBouf, who played his son in “4” has morphed into a very different actor since then, especially given his recent experience in the Padre Pio biopic; so he probably could have redeemed himself here and even had a smart pretty wife and a kid for Indy to be an awesome grandfather mentor for. I also like the idea of bringing back “Short Round” in a main role given his recent success and presence in “Everything everywhere all at once”. There are ways of adding “diversity” for modern audiences without having to take away from what we love about the original character! 😎🤙

It's also bad because often times those strong female leads don't have obstacles that are large enough to be a real challenge, which kind of makes it this weird things where they're still kind of knocking women, even though the female characters are still "strong."

    @@SmallSpoonBrigade Rey in the SW sequels, Mulan and Ariel in the live action remakes are classic examples of Disney's current obsession with satisfying #metoo. Their characters have been elevated to levels of ridiculousness. Mulan has been transformed into a comic book heroine with superpowers, Eric in TLM has been reduced to standing in Ariel's shadow, and Rey is an 'upgraded' Luke with tits. Taking Rey as an example, she started out fine but by the time we got to TROS she had become so good at everything all the other characters were surplus to requirements - great pilot, great mechanic, great fighter, powerful Force user, great healer and finally....all the Jedi. I actually cringed watching the end of TROS - she was so too good to be true it was embarrassing. And, having not learned their lesson, DLF, now a #metoo propaganda machine, intend to give her yet another film where she runs a Jedi Academy and 'achieves what Luke couldn't'....their own words. The live action Little Mermaid has tanked in the US. Maybe it will take these morons at Disney sit up and realise what they have done....but I doubt it.

    There’s some really good stories where a legacy character passed on the torch to and stayed on as mentoring the younger generation. Like Batman Beyond. Yes, Bruce starts out as a jaded and embittered old man estranged from his friends and without any purpose anymore as he had to resort to threatening a mook with a gun in order to save his own life. However, once Terry enters his life and reminds him of his purpose, Bruce steps in as mentor and teacher and even becomes a father figure. It’s like watching a dying flower given water. Sure, it takes time and he’s still a cranky old man but he has purpose again. Terry is no slouch either. He’s a capable, smart, snarky, temperamental, caring and passionate young man who is on a redemption journey after having wasted his youth in juvie. Granted, he has a learning curve and makes mistakes along the way but he keeps going. So it can be done. But it takes a competent group of talented people to pull it off and I think we’ve established that KK isn’t one of those people.
