Indiana Jones 5: First Details (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=338387)

Imagine blowing it with Indiana Jones and Star Wars.

The two easiest franchises to make money with.

90% of fans would have done better.

Reeeally wanting to go see SOF, hearing nothing but superlatives about it

I loved the Indy chases. Was worth the price of admission. Seeing the AI Indy fighting Nazis brought me great joy.

It was the female lead, she just miscast. Also how are we suppose to care about her when she ran away and left Indy to die like, 3 times?

Yep, it was a decent movie. That is the most disappointing thing about it.

You have one of the greatest IPs of all time and all you can do is do something decent? It was like something you'd watch on Sci-Fi channel on a Saturday afternoon.

It's over Kathy...

Indiana Jones, and executives at the Walt Disney Co. and Lucasfilm, made a somewhat dispiriting discovery this weekend. Moviegoers didn’t rush to the theater in significant numbers to see “ Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” and say goodbye to Harrison Ford as the iconic archaeologist.

Including $70 million from international showings in 52 markets, “Dial of Destiny” celebrated a $130 million global opening. It easily earned the No. 1 title but was not the high-rolling sendoff for one of modern cinema’s most iconic actor/character pairings that anyone hoped.

“It’s impressive that a franchise that’s over 40 years old is No. 1 at the box office. But there’s no question there were higher hopes for the debut of this movie,” said Paul Dergarabedian, the senior media analyst for Comscore. “This is Indiana Jones. This is a summer movie icon.”

Disney has a “clear weekend” ahead with no competing blockbusters, when studio heads can reasonably hope for more families and older audiences to buy tickets. But things will only get more challenging for “Dial of Destiny” in the coming weeks with a crowded July. “Mission: Impossible-Dead Reckoning Part I” opens on July 12, followed by “Oppenheimer” and “Barbie” on July 21.

Logic in that article is very strange. Shouldn't they be expecting a massive drop off in the second weekend since it debuted on a holiday weekend.

had more fun watching this

The Indiana Jones movie was good. It checked off all the boxes including being clever but not too clever, maps showing travels indicated by red lines, interesting historical drop ins, and totally unnecessary deaths.

Was nice to be transported to a time where everyone hated Nazis.
