I'm excited for it too. And I'm glad Steven Spielberg is directing it and that it will star Harrison Ford and not a new actor. Also, the fourth movie was a bit disappointing, so hopefully this will be a better ending to the film series (with Harrison Ford, at least. I'm sure that if the film is successful, there will be more. But probably it will be a reboot with a younger actor playing Indiana Jones).JeanGreyForever wrote:I'm probably one of the few people on here excited for this film.
Yeah, I'm happy Harrison Ford is returning, especially since we don't have Star Wars to see him in now either. Apparently Spielberg and George Lucas always planned five films originally, so I'm hearing that this could be the last one, at least with Ford. I'm guessing it all depends on the box-office though. I need to re-watch the fourth film because I only saw it once in theaters so I don't remember much about it, except that everyone seems to hate it. But then again, people hate Temple of Doom too.D82 wrote:I'm excited for it too. And I'm glad Steven Spielberg is directing it and that it will star Harrison Ford and not a new actor.

I don’t hate it, but it wasn’t as good as I expected for an Indiana Jones movie. Temple of Doom is probably the weakest of the first three, but in my opinion is still very good and full of memorable moments.JeanGreyForever wrote:I need to re-watch the fourth film because I only saw it once in theaters so I don't remember much about it, except that everyone seems to hate it.

I know people complain all the time about Mutt's casting, the CGI gophers, and the refrigerator. I never had an issue with the refrigerator and that's actually one of the few things I remember about the film. And I've never been as affected by CGI as others. Mutt probably won't have aged well when I do watch it though. Especially since I was never a Shia LaBeouf fan.D82 wrote:I don’t hate it, but it wasn’t as good as I expected for an Indiana Jones movie.

I didn't mind all these things. The problem for me was the main plot with the aliens. It didn't seem as strong to me as the ones the other movies have. I'm not a fan of Shia LaBeouf either, but I think he was okay in this film. Anyway, I should rewatch it too, because I haven't seen it in a long time. I think I've only seen it twice; once in the theater and once at home.JeanGreyForever wrote:I know people complain all the time about Mutt's casting, the CGI gophers, and the refrigerator.

I understand you, I don't like insects much either, though I can stand them as long as they are on the screen and are not real. They probably used that kind of joke too much in the movie. And I think the tone of that film is a bit different to the tone of the first. There's more comedy and it's less serious and epic, even Indy's personality is a bit different in it. The third movie is a return to the tone and feel of the original, though not as good as it, in my opinion.JeanGreyForever wrote:For Temple of Doom, I'm not a fan of the dinner scene at all. I don't blame India for wanting to ban the film for that reason alone. And as someone who hates all types of insects, it's very difficult for me to watch that scene with Willie covered in them.
The aliens I remember turned off a lot of people. Many felt it didn't fit the Indiana Jones films, especially since all the previous films were based on religion. I don't remember how I felt about it now though.D82 wrote:I didn't mind all these things. The problem for me was the main plot with the aliens.

I'm sorry for quoting something that's five years old already but I am very curious as to what Shia meant exactly when he said that he and Spielberg "dropped the ball" on the project. Does it mean he said they screwed it up? If it is that than I expect Spielberg's anger is justified. The comment must have made Shia - then just 23 - sound rather big-headed to criticise a much older film director, especially of Spielberg's calibre.disneyboy20022 wrote:That might work, also given Shia LaBeouf burned bridges with Harrison Ford and Steven Spielberg after Shia said they dropped the ball on Indiana Jones 4. Here's the quote of an article I found
In an interview with the Los Angeles Times in 2010, the actor, who was 23 at the time, said he and director Steven Spielberg "dropped the ball" on the fourth installment of the Indiana Jones franchise, "The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull." That interview did not sit well with the director or Shia's co-star Harrison Ford, who later called LaBeouf "a f--cking idiot." Ouch. Two years later, Shia revealed that he "deeply regretted" making those comments and that Spielberg gave him a talking to: "He told me there's a time to be a human being and have an opinion, and there's a time to sell cars. It brought me freedom, but it also killed my spirits because this was a dude I looked up to like a sensei."
You can choose to be honest at the risk of alienating those around you, or lie in order to make someone trust you.Jules wrote:One last question, honest. Can someone please interpret for me the text in bold?
"He told me there's a time to be a human being and have an opinion, and there's a time to sell cars. It brought me freedom, but it also killed my spirits because this was a dude I looked up to like a sensei."
What does this mean? Sorry if I sound daft, but I find that Shia expresses himself in riddles. (As do some movie characters as well! )
That's the old date; the new release date is July 20, 2020. By the way, Spielberg announced that Indy 5 will be Ford's last but the film series will continue after that (obvi).JeanGreyForever wrote:The movie's been delayed by one year to July 10, 2019.
Oops, I don't know how I could make that mistake when the whole point of posting was to point out the new release date.Sotiris wrote:That's the old date; the new release date is July 20, 2020.

Sorry, I've realized now I didn't reply to your last comment. I didn't like that they were introducing aliens in the franchise at first. But after seeing the movie, I thought it actually fit the Indiana Jones films because, though it wasn't about religion, it was also a fantastical element. The problem I had with it is that I didn't find that plot too interesting. At least the resolution and why the aliens were on Earth. In general, I think the film was good, though not at the level of the first three.JeanGreyForever wrote:The aliens I remember turned off a lot of people.

But they're going to do that anyway with the 6th one. The 5th one is supposed to lay the groundwork for that. It was confirmed this is going to be Ford's last reprisal of the character.D82 wrote:I suspect they are delaying the film until Harrison Ford is too old to play the titular character and they can reboot the series.
Yes, I know, but all these delays seem a bit strange to me. Though, who knows, maybe they're just struggling with the story. After all, if I remember correctly, the 4th film was also delayed several times.Sotiris wrote:But they're going to do that anyway with the 6th one.
