Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

AdventureAction

Set during the Cold War, the Soviets—led by sword-wielding Irina Spalko—are in search of a crystal skull which has supernatural powers related to a mystical Lost City of Gold. Indy is coerced to head to Peru at the behest of a young man whose friend—and Indy's colleague—Professor Oxley has been captured for his knowledge of the skull's whereabouts. From TMDB

    I remember seeing Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull at the Arclight in Hollywood and after, taking the parking lot elevator up with a dude who had dressed up like Indy for the show, and I think about his dejected face like once a month. The vibe was disappointed anger.

    I like the joke in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull where Jones tells Marion that Mutt's a good kid and that she should get off his back about not finishing school, but then she tells him Mutt's his son and he immediately reverses and is upset about him not finishing school.

    55 years later, in “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,” Indiana Jones found himself in “Doom Town” (or perhaps the more elaborate “Survival Town” built for the 1955 APPLE 2 test) and, unbelievably, escaped the fate of all those mannequins by hiding inside a lead-lined refrigerator.

    I know if it's truly the worst movie, but the most dissapointed I ever felt coming out of a movie was Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull I love everything about the first trilogy (except for aspects of ToD) but KCS was terrible. The monkeys, the CGI, the schlock. Was so bummed out

    2008 was the year Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was the 2nd highest grossing movie. 2008 was the year where radio was dominated by Chris Brown, and OneRepublic. 2008 was the year people thought GTAIV was a "game changer."

    You know what, it has been 18 years, I think it is enought time to rewatch Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and I think that, upon a rewatch, it is just fine. I wouldn't say it is as good as the original trilogy (maybe it is better than Temple of Doom?), but it is not a bad movie.

    Kiddo is watching Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull for the first time and she's loving it halfway through and she thinks Mutt is a kick. It's interesting seeing her perspective with zero expectations after we explained Indy was older in it.
