The movie needed 10 more minutes in the climax, with Indiana Jones actually doing something, rather than trying to kill himself and getting punched (my hero!), and 10 less minutes spent on rather pointless chase scenes.

But they had to re-write the ending and half-assed it.

I also thought it was super lazy how quickly the Nazis showed up in Sicily after being stranded in the open sea.

A lot of sloppy shit for a James Mangold film. We all know why.

I thought it was pretty good. I actually liked it more than Last Crusade. I refuse to acknowledge the existence of the Skull one.

I like the Skull one until it was the dark set CGI crap.

Saw this today and really enjoyed it. I really enjoyed the ending too - good closure.

Wait, what? Depressing? How in the heck did you get that? As for Crystal Skull, that movie is dead to me. For retrospect, in Crystal Skull, Indy's hat blows off of his head and the kid goes for it and it was not happening basically Indy is still the man - YAWN!

Crystal Skull wrapped it all up with a bow. Indy was the hero, bad guys got a horrible death, everyone lived happily ever after as a family.

The ending here was just like the diet cola ending of Skull. It sucked. Indy, not a hero. Bad guys got a mediocre death. Marion is shoved back into dating her ex in a shitty NY apartment with a dead son.

Absolutely pointless shit. They didn't need to make the movie if this is the "goodbye" to a historic character.

Okay, let's start over. You have been banging the drum for this movie since your OP, now you are disliking it? It was not a bad movie by any means. But, if you did not like it then that is ok, to each their own. I am just glad I went to see it and was very happy when I left the theater. :thumb:

Ok then, what did you think would happen and how would you have ended this movie?

Keep in mind Clay, I am NOT your enemy and I appreciate you very much.

To be fair, I probably need to see it again. I saw it when it came out and not since.
