(Figure someone had to make a thread sometime...)
Well folks, here it is: on May 22 (tomorrow!), Indiana Jones returns to the silver screen! It's been a long wait- almost 19 year- but it's finally here. Personally, from what I've seen/heard, it looks like it'll be a great movie, up there with Iron Man and (apparently) The Dark Knight. So, guys, what do you think?

I think I'll go to this movie sometime before or after I graduate. I love Indiana Jones. Even if he's aged now, he still looks awesome. I'm glad Harrison Ford agreed to be Indy again. I have a feeling that this movie is lightly based off the Tokyo DisneySea attraction. I mean, the ride is called Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Crystal Skull. Even more a reason to watch the movie! ;D

I'm thinking about seeing this one,too. I loved the first three movies, so many thrills and adventure, this was gold before the studios began to fall back on computers for this kind of thing.
At this rate, I might go see it on sunday, my next day off. I'm looking forward to seeing Indy doing what he does best again (... why did it have to be snakes?.... ;D).

It does look good. I'm not seeing Indy but this Saturday I think I'm going to see Iron Man.

Saw it. It was pretty good, but I don't think there was enough whip action.

I had the pleasure of watching Raiders of the Lost Ark yesterday and there wasn't a terrible lot of whip action in that either as I recall..
I'd like to see the older films before this one, but it looks pretty good in any case.
What is it with people and reviving series that are almost literally decades old these days?

What is it with people and reviving series that are almost literally decades old these days? "Everything that's old is new again." This is the mantra that most people in Hollywood are following right now. Either that or everyone over there is too lazy to come up with anything original. It's not a bad thing if you can do it well, but if you blow it, then you're scum (gives the Wachoski brothers the evil eye... ). I've got no problem with them bringing back Indy, but if someone thinks they can turn Mr. Ed into the next summer blockbuster, that's going waaay too far.

I've seen most of the Indiana series thanks to netflix and I have to say it was a blast! The latest one was great considering the morals. Also Indiana grabbing the snake made it alot better ;P.

THe ending of raiders of the lost Ark was pretty disgusting. Creepy dark and Eww. By the morals were actually up there a bit. And I do agree with previous posters that more whip action needs to take place. {Noted by EC - Double post}
