[Jims_Maroon_Pants]

And critics are calling it everything from shit to fucking shit!

Indiana Jones 5's first reviews are in, and they're not looking great

Dud of destiny?

Can they spin this as racist?

I remember reading the test reviews. People weren't happy.

This adds up with the test screenings being a disaster. The director tried to spin it "there have been no test screenings" but its clear that was all bullshit

I've never seen an Indiana Jones movie.

Calm down Jim Norton

If Clint Eastwood's last few films have taught us anything, it's that no one wants to see a wrinkled old geriatric playing the leading man, especially in an action/adventure movie.

The first 3 are good. Temple of Doom is the best imo.

It’s funny that Ford rightfully can’t stand Star Wars fans but made another Indiana Jones movie.

Temple of Doom rules. No idea why it gets hated on

Temple of Doom rules. No idea why it gets hated on

Spielberg retrospectively said it was his least favourite because it was "too dark" (even though he got a wife out of it.) Then Normies shit on it because of the portrayal of Indians in it.

I have a soft spot for it because it was the first one I saw and one of the first VHSs I remember owning, but it's also the most entertaining of the 3 and the only one that comes close to any "scary" moments.

I’m so glad to see Temple of Doom getting praise here. That was always my favorite too. I love the opening in the Chinese nightclub.

Modern Hollywood is completely incapable of creating anything that is even remotely tongue in cheek or has any nuance. Corporate checklist production means you either get painful earnestness that's devoid of any wit, or worse, over the top wacky meta commentary that's about as funny as a mass grave. Often they frankenstein the two into the same movie together, leading to absolutely jarring gearshifts in tone.

Something as subtle as Raiders is entirely beyond them.

And were supposed to care the "writers" are on Strike

No wonder he hates it.

Temple of Doom is great and was well-parodied in the Clerks animated series. If I remember correctly it wasn’t just a TOD parody but a Last Starfighter/Bad News Bears/TOD parody all in one episode. The writing on that show was genius so of course the jews cancelled it.

It's his least favorite because there were no Nazis to make look evil and stupid. He couldn't get his fix until The Last Crusade. Fucking weasily propagandist turd-eating heeb.

That wasn't the case with the first generation that watched it. We loved it. It's the young fags who clutch their pearls over it

BTW I didn't realize until about 20 years later that temple of doom was a prequel

 

[IGotATreeOnMyHouse85]

Harrison Ford doesn’t care, he does whatever will get him a paycheck. Half the time he’s stoned out of his mind on the set.

The reality is that Spielberg is white bread and he accidentally made a dark, goofy, interesting, gross out blockbuster in Temple, so of course he wasn't happy with it. It's maybe his only film that has zero mawkishness in it.
