While we're drifting off-topic, I should point out that I really liked the film. My dislike of Lucas' lying about Star Wars and how terrible the one prequel I saw was have zero affect on how I view his other work. My feelings regarding Lucas & all things Star Wars are completely separate from all things Indiana Jones. That's why you don't see me jumping on the "Lucas has destroyed everything he touches" hate wagon. I have no interest in punishing him or slamming him constantly - the way some people do around here. I have no problem separating the prequels & SEs from Indiana Jones - because they are separate.
Left unchecked, I think Lucas is a bad film maker. As part of a creative team, I think he's a great idea man. He is one third of the team that has created all four Indiana Jones films, not the destroyer of worlds that the prequel haters want to make him out to be.
To continue off-topic - this is all very well said and I agree. I thought Indy 4 could have been decent but had too many groan moments to properly enjoy. I've recently watched two fanedits of the film and I find it to be a worthwhile watch now.
Ipad? Pass. I have an 4th Gen ipod, a 2nd Gen shuffle, and a regular old style limited flip phone. I don't move around enough to need a portable device like an iphone or something similar.
