Default Da-da-da-daaaaa, da-da-daaaaa....

I can't believe noone has started a thread about this yet (Or maybe did I miss it?)

But the day is here lads!


Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is finally here!

I've already seen it twice the last 24 hours (the first one on the première, the second one a couple of hours ago). It's a real blast, I love every single second of it. Go and see it lads!

Just saw it:
It's not that bad, but i didn't like it. I'll nit-pick later.

I thought it was the X-files with Natasha (from Rocky and Bullwinkle) {and a bad one at that} .

Oh well, it beat sitting at home.


I had higher expectations, it did not meet them.

Okay I don't want anyone of you miss out my very important opinion on this movie, so here it is what I wrote in the other thread

It was clear to me that it could not live up to the first three movies.
The movie is a bit what Star Wars Episode I was in relation to Star Wars Episodes IV to VI, but without Jar Jar Binks

I'm more interested in everybody else's opinion at this point. I've been reading other reviews of the movie. Most are giving it a 3 1/2 stars (out of four). I'd give it a 2 1/2.


My favorite bad movie obsession is Gods and Generals.

Its not so much that it was a bad movie, I got a kick out of why people thought it was a bad movie. In a nutshell, critics didn't like it because it showed the South ass whoopin' the North in the first 2 years of the War. (Nevermind the fact the movie was waaaaaaay too long, and the special effects were god awful) The critics (the lefty PC types) didn't like the fact that is showed the South in a positive light. Appearently, they weren't aware that the South owned the North up until Gettysburg. (In the Eastern Theater)

I went to see the film on Wednesday. The film started at midnight, so the premier screening was technically on Thursday. Still, it was a great film. Had a lot of twists and turns and "WTF?" moments, though the whole... *SPOLIERS* alien *ENDSPOILERS* ...thing was just strange.

YES, YES, and YES. That has got to be the most underrated film of all time. Have you heard anything about "The Last Full Measure"?

The jury is still out for me...definitely not his best in the trilogy but nor was it the worst.

Just can't make up my mind.

I'm sure I won't be purchasing it though.
