Anyone looking forward to this one? Anyone dreading it?
Personally...behind Star Wars, Indy is the next best thing out there for me. Saw Raiders in the theater twice and it definitely blew me away, as did each other film.
The trailers make it look somewhat okay. Looks a little too polished for me, but that's just current filmaking. I'm thinking with Spielberg and Ford onboard to balance Lucas' insanity, it might turn out good. Who knows?
I think the greatest enemy for a film like this is its own past. The trailers make the movie out to be an Indy movie that knows it's an Indy movie and is trying to live up to something instead of just being its own movie like TOD and TLC did.
But in the end, we'll see what happens. I'm skeptical, but eagerly waiting and will be there for the midnight showing. I can't not see an Indy film. I'm just not getting excited cuz I think Ford is just doing it to revive a dead career and Spielberg doesn't make these kinds of movies anymore as far as I know. Lucas is plain fucked in the head...so who knows what ass-backward contributions he made to royally screw this movie. I'm close to saying that Ed Wood was saner than Lucas.
Thoughts?
