Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

Oh wow John Rhys-Davies! 
I'd see this movie for his guest spot alone.

Oh well, my bubble got partly burst after reading something…

If this film goes all "woke", then it deserves to fail.  I am sick of stories that focus more on pushing the agenda of today's headlines than they do on good stories.  Disney is starting to see that from their latest animated movies.  We Christians who are conservatives will need to start voting with our dollars, or lack thereof, to force them to change.  If we don't, then we are paying them to keep spreading their agendas.

Sadly, with Disney owning around 80% of Hollywood, there won't be much else left to watch.  If the company sells to Apple, then you can bet the agenda gets pushed more.

Hmm, that doesn't sound promising at all.  If it is all woke (or even partially woke/feminist) then I will probably pass.  Gonna have to wait and read some of the reviews.

Hard pass.  I think I'll stick with my old 40s films noir.  No cheesy special effects, no #WokeBot fantasies, and back then they could spin a yarn.

I really only care about the original film and the third one.  The even numbered ones in this series were just bad.

My wife and I watched Raiders a couple of months ago.  It has been quite a while since I had last watched it and I was surprisingly underwhelmed this time around.  I haven't watched 3 in a long time and have been thinking about doing so.  2 wasn't good.  That little kid talking all the time got annoying.  4 was just all right.  5?  I doubt it.

I think the second film was mostly horrible due to the satanic cult nonsense, Kate Capshaw's less than stellar performance, and that fact that the "Short-round" character didn't age well.
I still dig the first film and the third (The Last Crusade)... I even mostly enjoyed the last entry "Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men From Mars"....(that was actually a working title).  But seriously all the films are kind of campy and ridiculous, so it seems like you have to enjoy them for what they are.  Or don't.

PLEASE don't go woke.
PLEASE!
PLEASE!

Man, I was looking forward to this, but if it's woke, I'm going to have to give it a miss.  Why can't these people realise that going woke isn't what the majority want?!  Haven't they learnt that from Top Gun, which was just a standard brilliant film with no agenda in it at all.  It took you out of normal every day life, and made you grin from start to finish.  Imagine if Top Gun had the female pilot win everything, and show how bad white men were - that would have been awful.  Instead it was just a great story that involved men/women/black/white/young/old and it WORKED!

Please, Indiana, PLEASE!!!!!

You left off the non-stop screams from the lady who co-starred.  It was a bad film all around.

Agreed!
