Man, movie goers are still slamming Indiana Jones 4 for all the CGI used in them. And for the silly scenes in Indy 4 that didn’t make sense which they made for humor and laughs in the film. Profesional movie critics loved Indy 4 but regular movie goers are giving it mixed reviews from bad to good. So that goes to show that the new Indy film created a lot of controversy.
When people slam Indy 4 for the CGI used in the film, they all sound like hypocrites ’cause of most of them are fans of the Spiderman trilogy and the new Star Wars prequels, and all those movies are loaded with CGI.
You’re talking about Indy 4 being loaded with computer effects and silly scenes that don’t make sense? Those things are all over the first 3 three Indy films.
What about in Raiders where all them ghosts started coming out of the Ark when Belloq opened it at the end of the film? Those are computer effects, since CGI wasn’t around back in those days, they still used computers to make that effects. Computers that are not so profesional back in those days.
What about in Raiders when the Nazis pushed Marion down the hole where Indy and John Rys Davies were waiting to climb back up, Marion landed on the statue and crashed onto the ground. There is no way she could have survived that fall in real life. That stunt was obviously done by a stunt woman.
What about the truck chase scene in Raiders where Indy climbs under a Nazi truck?
What about the Rollercoaster mine chase scene in “Temple of Doom” that scene was goofy and silly but it was made for fun and entertainment. What wabout the rope bridge scene with Moloram and his army in the final battle at the end of “Temple of Doom”?
Oh yeah, and what about in the “Last Crusade” the ending, when Indy, Elsa and Donovan finally found the room where the Holy Grail is at, when Donovan agrees to drink from the grail, Elsa chooses a grail for him, Donovan dies by quickly turning into a skeleton noticing it was the wrong grail. That scene was goofy and silly! But it was made for humor and laughs!
THE INDY TRILOGY IS FULL OF SCENES THAT DOESN’T MAKE SENSE!
Spielberg had always been known to make weird scenes in all of his movies. What about in Jaws? Do you think sharks actually jump out of the water and eat people in real life? NO! In Close Encounters do you think aliens actually know how to play music in a spaceship? LOL! War of the Worlds remake is a goof fest but still a fun movie. Hmmmm…Minority Report is full of CGI and goofy scenes as well. Look at Articial Intelligence, even serious movies like Amistad and Schindler’s List has scenes that are pretty weird (like it’s supposed to be a black and white movie, yet you see a little girl in the film with a red coat).
Spielberg had always been a loon when making movies. But he still makes great movies. The guy is a fucking legend. Stop slamming Indy 4 ’cause of it’s goofy and silly content. It’s just a damn movie people.
Like I said before the people slamming Indy 4 because of CGI used and it’s silly content are sound like a bunch of hypocrites.
Spielberg movies are made for fun. Get a life Indy fans.
End of rant.

The red coat in Schindler’s List was an important device, and it’s one of the few things I remember about that movie. After seeing a girl in a red coat, he sees a pile of coats collected from dead Jews. And guess what, one of them is red. Now whose coat do you think that was? He recognized it, but apparently you didn’t?
I’ll have to take your word that Indy was good, since I won’t be watching it. Those movies were great when I was in junior high when we had them on VHS but I’m getting a bit old for them now.

You’re never too old to watch an Indy film. Both of my parents went and saw Indy 4 this weekend, and they loved it. They are almost in their 60’s too. I reccomend you to check out Indy 4.
Hell, Harrison Ford is almost 70 and even he agrees that he’s never too old to play Indy.

I saw Indy on Friday and thought it was just ok.
Went again on Sunday and LOVED IT.
it had been so long since I have seen an Indy film for the first time that some of the things I take for granted in the first 3 films seemed out of place the first time I saw the new one. Once I had time to remind myself what the series is like, I went in the second time more prepared and I realized what a brilliant movie it really is. A worthwhile revival.
The only thing that still bothered me the second time was Mutt Williams’ “tarzan” impression but I can’t let a 3 second scene spoil the rest of the fantastic movie.
