Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

Evolve · 11 Sep 2007 at 12:29

Just seen that Shia Le Beouf has told the title of the new Indiana Jones movie.

What does everyone think? Do you reckon it will be good or a turkey?

Anyone know any plot details etc?

helmet · 11 Sep 2007 at 12:54

Probably a lot of Shia.

casperjr · 11 Sep 2007 at 13:13

Maybe a place in it for Damien Hurst's diamond skull?

Deiwos · 11 Sep 2007 at 13:15

If its anything like films 1 or 3, it's got a thumbs up from me.

jimbofett · 11 Sep 2007 at 13:16

its impossible for it to be rubbish

i hope

spielberg is directing isnt he?

KNiVES · 11 Sep 2007 at 13:20

Yes, so it's going to be a surefire winner. Spielberg cannot possibly do wrong.

I went to IMDB so I could give you a big list of things he's done wrong and I just found out that Jurrasic Park 4 is in Pre-Production.

I'll leave it at that.

Sounds like a worrying title to me. The better Jones films (1-3) had a great mix of fact/historics and fantasy/supernatural.

I'm just praying this isn't too much of the latter.

A.I.

enough said, Spielberg can do wrong.

penski · 11 Sep 2007 at 14:53

I'd go as far to say that he does more bad than good.

Pretty harsh statement, please expand.

Temple of doom was a shocker like, but I agree about 1 and 3. They've said that this new film isn't going to have very much CGI in it, meaning hopefully it will retain its B movie qualities, I reckon it'll be pretty good (fingers crossed).

It's pretty much impossible to expand that. It is a very clear-cut statement.

It's got Ray Winstone in, it's gotta be good!

The fact you named Band of Brothers disgusts me. Clearly no accounting for taste.
