Day 8 - Kingdom of the CGI Monkeys???
Jan. 8th, 2010 11:59 pmOkay, so as I mentioned, yesterday I bought a box set of Indiana Jones. Having heard SO much about movie number four, I decided to start with that one. Here are some random thoughts I had as I was watching. Wouldn't call it a review. For fun, you can try to figure out what scenes I'm talking about.
****
( INDY #4 )
In conclusion, it really wasn't as bad as I had expected it to be from what I had heard about it. It wasn't MIND NUMBINGLY dreadful. But neither was it excellent. It was definitely the WORSE of the lot mind you, but it did have it's charming moments and overall it could have been much much worse. It could have been Howard the Duck.
For starters, it should have been half an hour shorter. And while I really liked seeing Indy in his academia role with the grabbing at books and figuring stuff out and whatnots, I really wished they'd have picked something other than aliens to cap his career off with. In my mind, Indiana Jones should have gone out in a FIERY BLAZE OF NAZI KILLING GLORY. Not... marriage.
