To my surprise, I liked it! Will write a full commentary about it on my site soon. - ScreenwritingforHollywood Tue, 03 Jun 2008 02:03:34 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/indiana-jones-and-the-kingdom-of-the-crystal-skull/#comment-1094 Wow, it seems like you really hated the film. Great article and accurate points though; and granted - it really doesn't have the same feel of the older 3 because of the CGI but did we really expect it to have that? And are we a bunch of purist bigots when we expect the good old-fashioned imagery for this one? This is the question I've been asking to myself for some time now. I have listed a link to this article as a recommendation for further reading, below my own review for the movie. Oh, and I love your baseball allusion. - Usumezbas Wed, 28 May 2008 01:49:58 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/indiana-jones-and-the-kingdom-of-the-crystal-skull/#comment-1092 i was disappointed too. and i loved all George's Lucas movie so far. Including the PT Star Wars. I have nothing against CGI, but it can't make up for an actual plot. Indy 4 had no plot, no tension, no charm. And poor Irina/ Cate Blanchet, they made a mockery out of her, with that stupid fake accent and that poor motivation to pursue the crystal skull. Lucas was spinning old tricks. Like the beginning, it was an "American Graffiti" tribute, and, I don't know if you noticed, but he made [s]Han Solo[/s] Harison Ford actually say "I have a bad feeling about this"!!!! This is a Star Wars iconic phrase. anyway, how disappointed i am! - marmelade Mon, 26 May 2008 10:16:53 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/indiana-jones-and-the-kingdom-of-the-crystal-skull/#comment-1090 I didn't rate it as bad as you did, but I did think it was lackluster compared to the others in the franchise. I ranked this film 3 out of 4 ahead of only Temple of Doom. - trench Sun, 25 May 2008 23:26:55 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/indiana-jones-and-the-kingdom-of-the-crystal-skull/#comment-1085 It's unfortunate that they rely so much on computer generated graphics. I couldn't believe how bad the Star Wars prequels were. Actors cannot perform in front of green screens. Period. They do not feel their surroundings and always seem stiff. I agree with the comment above. When there is an excess of CGI - the dialogue, plot and feel of the movie suffers. - Offgrid Fri, 23 May 2008 15:00:10 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/indiana-jones-and-the-kingdom-of-the-crystal-skull/#comment-1084 I'm not surprised. It's the same problem that plagued Lucas's Star Wars prequels...too much time and energy spent on CGI, not enough on plot and character development. (Padme loses the will to live? Barf!) But I digress... - RJ Keller Fri, 23 May 2008 02:02:44 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/indiana-jones-and-the-kingdom-of-the-crystal-skull/#comment-1082 Having been to Peru, I will either love or hate the Peru aspect of the film. I saw the trailer in the theater which looked so-so. Like me, most people will probably pay to see this movie out of nostalgia, but it sure is a mega-disappointment if and when we are let down, as seems to be the common sentiment about this movie. I will have to report back later. The more people wipe the butts of famous filmmakers, the more they stink. Really well written article! Nice tie in to baseball to make a clear point. - ScreenwritingforHollywood Fri, 23 May 2008 00:33:23 +0100 http://themovie-fanatic.com/film_reviews/current/indiana-jones-and-the-kingdom-of-the-crystal-skull/#comment-1081 God, I hope this isn't true. Say it ain't so, David... say it ain't so. - Jeremy Thu, 22 May 2008 23:17:42 +0100
