My knees were shaking while watching Hacksaw Ridge. It gets pretty intense. I just wish the ending didn't wrap up so quickly.

I like that in Last Crusade, teenage Indy is all like "They're just snakes!" until he falls in that pool of them, but in the very first episode of Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, he's afraid of snakes in the first episode as a little kid. Because WHO CARES really. The show is pretty good but goddamn are they long episodes.

Spielberg's prime "daddy issues" movie is easily 1941. And, yes, I still think it's criminally underrated.

In the most George Lucas thing ever, I swear to god there's a dvd release of Raiders of the Lost Arc where the spine says something along the lines of "Part 31 in the Indiana Jones Chronicles"

So Spielberg is the right director for a Mass Effect movie? Give him the games too. He has a pretty good track record with those.

I just found a music video I think I've been trying to find for about 20 years and I'm not gonna even bother posting it because it really wasn't even very good. I'm not sure if I feel more relieved that I finally found this thing or disappointed that it wasn't worth it the years searching.

Really, while Crystal Skull does have a good number of flaws (Ford sleepwalking, not using its cast to its best, and a general overreliance on setpieces) it's not nearly as bad as people say it is. Also while I've always hated Hulu's tendency to crop 2.39:1 movies to 16:9 on random movies, it really pissed me off here since there are a lot of scenes where speaking characters are literally cut out of the frame. Magic Hate Ball posted:It's silly but it's non-diagetically silly. It's really not any more wacky than, say, any of the Indy-and-dad scenes in Last Crusade, though? You can argue that Last Crusade did it better (and I wouldn't push back on those grounds) but acting like wackiness and silliness and characters being goofs is some sort of cancer that Crystal Skull introduced is prime horseshit.

Uncle Boogeyman posted:I mean, also not untrue. Would "arrogant misogynist human poo poo stain" be more accurate? Tuxedo Catfish posted:If you voted for Trump then at the very least you sold out your neighbors for the illusion of personal security. So maybe, just maybe, you're a coward, a traitor, and a dupe -- but not a racist, if that makes you feel better. You don't have to be a racist/misogynist/homophobe/transphobe/ableist/rape apologist to be a Trump supporter, you just have to be okay with racism/misogyny/homophobia/transphobia/ableism/rape apology to be a Trump supporter. I've met plenty of so called decent people who support Trump and all this travesty has done is shine a light on all the disgusting things they used to hide for fear of disapproval. The Richard Spencers and Milo Yiannopolouses aren't the average Trump supporter. The average Trump supporters are everyday people you interact with walking around harboring disgusting world views and quietly discussing them with each other in coffee shops and work places. These are the people who put him in power. Uncle Boogeyman posted:I mean, we could use a Tea Party style movement of the left to primary the poo poo out of some of the weak-rear end democrats we have right now. They tried that and all it amounted to was a bunch of college kids banging on drums in a concrete park outside of some bank.

By the way, my favorite jump scare is still the roller coaster one in Enter the Void. It's so well done and it loving wrecked me when I first saw that movie.

There's just something off about Crystal Skull, Temple of Doom is so gung-ho about its own contrivances but Crystal Skull has this hesitancy. It's not a bad movie but it's lacking the involved spunkiness of the first two that make them so good. It's also hamstrung by some lousy CGI and overall visual incoherence.

I haven't seen Crystal Skull in years but one example I remember is that the movie comes to a screeching halt right after the fridge scene to dump all that poo poo on us to establish that this franchise is now influenced by 50s pulp and not 30s pulp.
