the only embarrassing thing is that the rest of you ruined what is clearly going to be a very good movie for yourselves, based only off the reviews of some ****ing snobs at cannes

Has nothing to do with reviews. Read an early plot synopsis to determine if the movie was worth my money to see in theaters. It isn't.

SEE???

THE LEAKS WERE WRONG TURD

So John Williams and Harrison Ford were lying about the reshoots?

YOU'VE BEEN LYING TO YOURSELF THIS ENTIRE THREAD

?

You know what was a "ride into the sunset" ending?

The last scene of 'The Last Crusade" where they should've let the damn thing lie. When they LITERALLY rode off into the sunset as the credits rolled.

Thank GOD Disney is here to remind us - again - that all our heroes end up withered and broken shells of themselves for the majority of their lives. But hey, the last few months of it may be slightly less awful for them. So that's nice.

"After you, Junior..."
"Yes sir..."

{horses run through canyons and into the sunset...}

He GOT the gruffly tender send-off he deserved. You need to see him broken and henpecked by some snarky brit?

None of this ADDS to his story. It doesn't improve upon it. You're just desperately hoping they'll make chicken salad from this chicken shit.

I think I've discussed briefly the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy books before.

And I've told anyone who listens - the series stops at "So Long and Thanks for All the Fish..."

Don't read past it. Don't. It's a natural, easy and obvious end to the story. Our characters arcs have all come to an end. Unfortunately the 5th book happened...

Douglas Adams himself said he regretted 'Mostly Harmless...'. He was in a terrible place at the time, he was depressed and he acknowledge that the book detracted from the series. He hoped to write a 6th book to 'correct his mistake' and then he up and died instead.

That's what these two movies are - mistakes that do nothing but take away from the perfect stopping point. You have such a clear and clean ending to the story after Last Crusade. It wasn't depression that led to these movies - it was greed and a cynical cash grab. Neither of these movies exist to further a story - they exist to wring a few buck out of a cherished IP and at the EXPENSE of that IP.

you're too late "mr. kingdom of heaven was a good movie" nonsense boy

indiana jones fans got a movie made for them, by them, and by jove we're enjoying it

If you replaced "Indiana Jones fans" with "Top Gun fans" I could go along with it. No, this was not made for the fans at all.

that's why tons of hardcore indy fans are loving it ROFL

yes!

"New and exciting heights!!!"

I can't actually click on Twitter accounts at work (going to the website is blocked) but I'd give you even money that this person has pronouns in his bio.

Even TLO should bet the pronouns here

....****

LMAO

I remember seeing #4 and thinking not much about it. After the latest Thor and Strange movies, I just don't care about Disney.

I'm not the target audience anymore. Like the Bud Light issue; I don't drink cheap swill so if they disappear, who cares?

Well, the difference is I'd still like to enjoy the Disney movies and hope that a few philosophical changes up top rights the ship. Bud Light is always going to be swill.

As someone who remembers the 'Wonderful World of Disney' weekly TV show, I really hope you are correct.

At around 50, I learned that life was too short to drink bad beer. The only time I will drink one of the big three if that's all the golf cart vendor has for sale.

And for the relative downhill trend Marvel was on there for a bit, they still put out a couple of absolute gems in No Way Home and GOTG3

Both were entertaining, Strange was off the charts good. A Raimi classic.

LMAO That's one way of putting it. I did like Multiverse though.

I was expecting the worst based on what I read online about Thor. I was pleasantly surprised.

It wasn't Ragnarok, but it was a damn sight better than crap like Iron Man 2.

People complain too much about CGI.

It was aspects of Ragnarok turned up to 12. Also, personal preference, I really wish the Guardians were in the movie more than they were.

Over/under odds on Adam Driver having a cameo as a bad guy in this movie?

I need to see that one. I really like Dr. Strange. Or more accurately, Cumberbatch in the role.

Actually, Marion spends a good chunk of the movies being shrill and needing saving by Indy. Hell, she screams almost much as Willie. Still a great character.

"****ing miles better than Crystal Skull & that's all I really needed"

"It was a great movie. Fun as hell."

"I really liked it. Definitely had some flaws but what I liked I really loved. The final scene was the perfect way to end this series."

"I just got out of it and thought it was fantastic. I'd give it a solid 8.5 out of 10. I think it's got some problems, but they are few and far between, and even a lot of the problems I do have are minor ones."

"I think to me, the most important thing, it felt like an Indy movie. And flaws and all, that’s what matters most to me."

"What I loved was that it was about characters, and telling a story the whole way through. They didn't just stop having any character development whatsoever halfway through the movie in favor of endless action sequences the way that Crystal Skull does. For the entire duration of the movie Indiana Jones is actively doing something, and even the characters around him are growing and changing in their own way as a result of their time with Indy."

"I saw the movie this afternoon (RPX theater). I would give it a solid 8/10."

Rumors confirmed without a doubt. I'm just glad KK didn't get her way with the original abysmal ending and folks are having a good time with it. Still a bit baffled why she hasn't been fired.

sorry you don't like A GREAT MOVIE, troll

**** off

You support groomers, and the emasculation of Star Wars

YOU RUINED IT

YOU CUT OFF YOUR OWN DICK

Yikes. Tracking for a 65 million opening. That puts it firmly in bomb territory, although that's way more to do with just how much they've spent making/promoting it.

On track for a 6 million Thursday. For comparisons sake Crystal Skull got 25 million on its opening Thursday.

Ruined it? I'd rather watch burn, and end the era of Woke Blockbusters thanks to Disney and their meddling in Florida

NONE OF YOU THOUGHT A 90 AUDIENCE SCORE WAS EVER POSSIBLE

RECANT AND KNEEL

It's going to fall well short of their 900 Billion and more goal

you are a terrible person

:spock:



When all the audience going to an established series is the fanboys, and the people who've already been driven off are missing along with the non-existent casual watchers, you get an artificially high audience score.


That's how you end up with TLJ being the #4 audience rated Star Wars movie at rottentomatoes.com.

your logic is DEEPLY flawed

TLJ had an audience score of 42%

YOU'RE LOOKING AT AN INVERSE OF THE LAST JEDI HERE

ERGO, YOU SHOULD LOVE IT

This year's Disney Tentpoles that bombed

When you play to a small core audience because you've driven off the rest, it's what can happen. It doesn't always happen, because sometimes the movies turn off even the hardcore fans, but it does happen a fair amount.

We see the same thing in sports, too, where crappy teams still have a loyal core that puts up with just about anything. This isn't some phenomenon that's exclusive to movies.

The Florida political and litigation meddling was the death blow, because they could've shelled more subpar movies/streaming shows if they didn't add their opinion and pursued a lawsuit in said state.

LMAO



The critics were the biggest fanboys, because of the wokeness.

Maybe, but Disney's been withering on the vine for a while and, while the wokeness has been a part of it, a lot of other problems have added to it.

that doesn't make a damn bit of sense....cannes is the wokest place on earth and they panned it

make some ****ing sense for a change....audiences hated TLJ...audiences love DOD

YOUR SHITTY NARRATIVE HAS BEEN DESTROYED

I'm making sense. Sorry you choose to ignore it.

Go look at where the critics ranked SW Ep 7. Maybe that'll help you figure it out. If it doesn't, try to realize that I'm not making a direct comparison between Star Wars and Indiana Jones, but am merely using another of your movie franchise binkies as a demonstration.


I hope this movie is better than advertised, and I hope it makes the money it deserves either way. But, as with so many other movies we've seen go belly up lately, it's not starting out looking good.

holding strong at 88% with 500+

oh man
