Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

Post by Jersey Girl »

Has anyone seen it yet? Whatcha think? I fully intended to see it just to put a period at the end of the sentence on the adventures of Indian Jones. Got some critical reviews where it's panned. I don't care. It's an experience. A journey. I'm going on it. And finish it.

In any case, dig this AI de-aging demonstration of Harrison Ford in the following youtube short.

And...those eyes. I ain't sayin'' another blessed thing! ;)

I saw it the other day. It was what you would expect from a Indians Jones movie. There were some plot twists. Well done, excellent special effects, and well directed. I liked it.

That's good to hear! I don't know why there are critical reviews. Maybe because Spielberg and Lucas didn't have an actual hand in it? I guess I'll see for myself. The trailer looks pretty good to me. I did see more than one interview with Harrison Ford and he emphasizes repeatedly that he wanted aging to be acknowledged and emphasized in the final installment.

I don't go to the theater often since the pandemique, but I'm happy to go see this!

He looks pretty white for being an Indian.

It's tragic that they didn't do that for "Solo: A Star Wars Story." It would've made the show much more credible.

I’m sorry. Alden Ehrenreich may be a good enough actor, but I just couldn’t get over the fact that he looked nothing like a young Harrison Ford.

I just watched it. It was heartbreaking watching Indian pawn off a lifetime of priceless artifacts just to make ends meet as a retiree.

This scene had me shedding tears:
