lol No.

Wait for DVD.

After seeing this movie it is now officially confirmed:

Anybody who was born during the time period of 1970-1990 has a ruined childhood. It is now up to the new generation of the world to learn from the mistakes of this one. :(

I really have trouble believing that THIS was the script that Spielberg, Lucas, and Ford ultimately chose to do above all others. The premise was okay, Aztec aliens and "Chariots of the Gods" fit with the Indiana Jones scheme and everything, but the dialogue and action sequences could've been done a lot better.

John Hurt's character was just along for the ride, like the drunk Brody from Last Crusade. Didn't really need to be there at all, and neither did Mac. Was Mac a character from the books? His heel-turn would've been more personal had it been Sallah, or if they expanded on his reasoning for backstabbing him a bit more than just wanting more money. Mac just didn't seem like the type of person Jones would need to work with at all. But then again, neither did Short Round.

No. No. NOOOOOOOOOO. NNOOOOOOOO!

The alien stuff wouldn't have been stupid if they hadn't had that stupid grimacing scene. Hell, just don't even show them, remember fucking basic movie tricks, where what you can't see is what's really interesting. Gah.
"And then... The alien, inter-dimensional being, makes a NASTY face and she gets her wish... all the knowledge in the world. IT'S BRILLIANT!"

P.S. LOL @ Finch for shitting at I-Ron Man with no reason other being the pussy.

Iron Man is a stupid movie and everyone loves it. Indiana Jones is just a little less stupid, and somehow it isn't as good because it ruins everyone's childhood.

Yeah, they should've just left the aliens as dead skeletons and had new live ones come down and retrieve their stuff. I still don't know why the aliens came to life and then decided to leave just because one of the heads were replaced. Wouldn't they have done that before one of their skulls went missing? Why just sit dormant waiting for someone to steal one of your heads, then wait until it's replaced to take off?

I'm assuming that Oxley was the one leaving footprints at the tomb, and using the torches in the temple ruins - but they kept pointing that shit out for some reason and never explained why. Also LOL at the tribal dudes busting out of the walls and ceiling when they arrive. Do they do that everytime someone stumbles upon their hidden temple? Is that what they do all day - just hide in the walls waiting for someone to maybe come by? And who's gonna repair that shit? One of them has to brick them back up once the intruder leaves or is killed.

I am managing to type this without reading that, but spoilers fucktard.
