Crystal Skull's trailers looked good too...

“It’s not what you believe, but how hard you believe it.”
This is exactly the drivel that is destroying society today. It doesn’t matter how insane your ideas are, how much magical thinking and contortions of reality they require, as long as you obstinately refuse to accept that sanity, reason, and reality itself contradict you. 🤦‍♂️

Still, looks infinitely better than “Crystal Skull” (they raped my friend!)

Abrams IS a hack. he never even liked star trek but repeated all the old images with added lens flares and fake looking shiny CGI bullshit.
Expect the same.
There is no love or inspiration here, just the product of a billion dollar business deal between fat cynical capitalists and later their mercenary artisitically bankrupt stooge for hire.
Doing anything interesting is the only way to get fired for him (see Antman).
Also, that doesn't look like han solo, anymore than the crystal skull oldie looked like indiana jones.

If Harrison Ford had goalie pads in The Crystal Skull, he wouldn't have needed that refrigerator.

The Last Crusade - best Movie + Computer Game combo ever!

Anyhow:
What would have made this clip really epic is if he had bad things to say about Uncharted too, and it would all be cut in context of the "Crystal Skull" thingy that some (fools) claim to be an Indy movie.

There are Three movies made featuring Indiana Jones, and Two featuring Mad Max.

Yeah, I dunno, I think Crystal Skull is better than Temple of Doom. That's not saying a whole lot though.

It's a question of which is worse, crappy 80's sequels (TOD was, Last Crusade wasn't), or crappy 00's reboots.

I was really expecting them to cut to "Crystal Skull" and have him start balling his eyes out!

If only when playing the game in the original vid he had somehow said "Oh dear God. What the hell was I thinking when I agreed to make this forth movie? It's a flaming bag of dog poo on the front door to anyone who grew up or lived in the 80's." Then they could have cut that into this parody and I would have felt vindicated for wasting 2 hours of my life watching Crystal Skull.

I thought Indy 4 was almost there....
a) The two best Indy movies (1 & 3) had their roots in Biblical myths, this made them feel sort of 'legit', a nice sort of 'what if' these stories were true. Temple of Doom lacked this with him not searching for anything really, just stumbling across the Thuggees. The crystal skulls could have been a pretty good myth to work with, but there wasn't enough decoding scripture or writings or anything really to _do_ with the myth... I think that's where the two weak films initially fail, they aren't a good 'search for a lost item' story.

b) Far too much CGI, the chase through the jungle, while having some nice action and set pieces, just feels like a cgi scene, doesn't feel based in reality.

c) Too much lame humour. It's where Lucas failed a lot with the Star Wars prequels too... resorting to fart jokes and bad slapstick when the originals had a semblance of subtlety to them.

d) The end... just... a spaceship... really? The first one, we have ghosts... that's good, honest, old school movies. The second has some heart ripping and glowing stones, the third has life giving/sapping cups... but none of them have alien creatures coming to life and a space ship taking off... just doesn't work. That really should have been played down a lot, lot more. Some sort of alien power source that activated and made a whole lot of ancient machinery come to life would have been more in keeping.

I really enjoyed the motorcycle chase, I like Shia, I think he does well with whatever he's given. I think Harrison is still excellent in the role, there were some great action pieces. It's just really annoying to see a film get so close... so close and miss out due to what feels like just not having one more person look over the script and say 'Hey guys... you're kinda missing a few key "Indy" things here... and a few of these scenes are really very hokey'

But yeah, not as bad as some would make it out to be.

No Pluto Nash? Don't you know he's THE MAN on the moon?
