redbandita Supercow al rescate!!!!!!
Saturday, bf bought tickets for the Indy-movie, which was great.
But… (there’s always a but) he bought the love seat champagne arrangement, which meant that we were not only sitting in our own box with only 6 other people, but had a small bottle of champers and nibbles served freshly at the start of the movie.
Needless to say that I drank my share of that bottle.
Still:
non, rien de rien, non, je ne regrette rien!
Absnasm is so freaking happy!
Do you regret seeing the film? Cos so far most people seem to.

What people have to keep in mind is that it’s a B-movie. Indy movies were always meant to be cheesy B-movies. Fun, predictable, harmless and silly.
There is no historical accuracy! There is no time limit on a chase if there are still things the director can do with that chase. There were a few moments where realism was switched off purely for the fun of it (“It drops three times!”).
You have to go with it. With a bucket of pop corn and you fun hat on.

they got an actual real-life explorer colonel person to review it—and he seemed to think that it was quite realistic! the only thing he could really fault was the anaconda, which was “too rubbery and too long”.

I loved the original Indy movie, and to varying degrees the other sequels.
But the original set me up to expect snappy dialogue and a plot that didn’t fall back on a cheap “out” to explain the goings-on.
Iron Man wasn’t strictly realistic, either. Yet I enjoyed it vastly more, because it contained many more fun moments than could be shown in the trailer. Crystal Skull’s good moments are all in its trailer.
calypte gearing up for festivities!
No regrets at all. Sure it’s not Raider’s of the Lost Ark, but it’s a fun addition to the series. Just, don’t overthink it!
