Indiana Jones was a great trilogy that ended with him riding into the sunset. Then they dragged him out of retirement for a movie that was not very good. Then they dragged him out of retirement again for a movie that's arguably worse. It doesn't take a buisness major to understand that wasn't a great plan lol. That said I do think there is potential in the video game space, especially since it's been a hot minute since the last Uncharted and Tomb Raider (But actually please just remake Fate of Atlantis like you did with the Monkey Island Games)
@@wmoule I want to push back on this a little. Take the Mario film for instance, the reason that movie sold tickets was because it successfully played on Mario adoration --- which does not mean it was creatively rich, rather it means that it was a successful cash grab.

@@thedapperdolphin1590I mean they put elephant Mario in the new Mario game, maybe they embraced the "Nintendo elephant" analogy from Final Bosman back in the day 😜😜 JK.
Bonus bit was highly relatable. I'm also an 80s baby but as a kid my first exposure to Indy Jones was that scene in the Last Crusade where the dude rapidly ages to a skeleton. Suffice to say, it's not exactly been a staple of my cultural upbringing into adulthood.
Indiana Jones is a super nostalgic franchise for me, it was like what the Star Wars trilogy was like for everyone else. I always believed there was more potential in Indiana Jones, like I know you mention that the character is carried by one person but I feel they really could have gone the James Bond route.
I'm super late on this, but I think the problem is that they haven't really done any "maintenance" on this license. With Star Wars, even in the downtimes they would do a run of toys, then a weird N64 game, and more books and comic books and everything else than Earth has eyeballs, then several animated shows, etc. Every generation has more Star Wars stuff to attach itself to. But Indiana Jones has nothing keeping it current. If I'm 25 years old right now (and I'm not), what is Indiana Jones to me? Well, it's two or three movies my (grand)parents really liked. It's a bad movie that came out when I was 9. It's two serviceable Lego video games that I didn't play 15 years ago because I had no attachment to the franchise. It's a Fortnite skin. It's a decent-to-good movie about finding meaning in growing old which I can't relate to because I'm 25. And soon, it will be a video game. Indiana Jones is a massive franchise that's spent the better part of the last 35 years sitting on a shelf then occasionally being picked up and marketed directly to the people who already liked it, before being put back on the shelf again. The franchise needed its own Clone Wars animated series or something. An ambiguously-aged CGI Indy going on adventures with a team of other archaeologists vs. some rival crew of archaeologists in darker clothes so we know they're the bad ones. Probably not Nazis, too hard to explain. This gets you to the point where kids grow up with an Indiana Jones aimed at their demographic, then they can grow into the more adult parts of the franchise and be interested when there's an Indiana Jones video game. I don't see them doing anything to get *new* people interested in Indiana Jones. Nostalgic parents will only get them so far.
I think that as a movie franchise it ran It's course, but as a game? You can squeeze at least a AAA trilogy out of It and some spin offs. Uncharted and Tomb Raider happen in modern times, Uncharted has the hand to hand combat, stealth elements and Tomb Raider's last entries have "survival" mechanics, I think a Indi game can definetly fill a gap. Perhaps a more "grounded" and cinematic Doom Eternal with 3rd person elements, I'm excited for it personally.
The problem with Indians Jones, and a lot of franchises, is that the character who exists in individual people’s heads is often NOT the real character. Thusly it’s hard to find people to write and portray him. Like Han Solo, similarly. One of the major criticisms Kazdan had when criticizing the Lord and Miller version of the film was “Han is not funny!”. In some peoples heads, they remember all the comedic lines he adds to the films and go “ of course he is!” But they’d don’t get/understand that Han’s PERSONALITY created ironic situations which is where the humor came from. Han himself would never get the joke.
7:45. I couldn't disagree more about No Time to Die's ending. It's a powerful way to end DC's tenure as James Bond. Every James Bond actor deserves to have a different feel/tone to his tenure and DC's has always been the grittiest and darkest so the ending makes perfect sense for me. Also, how the hell does it cheapens the tenure of the other actors? Did you really believe every actor was the same character somehow living 60+ years and still being employed by MI6? Every actor's tenure is its own continuity, nothing else makes sense.
nothing will make me more nostalgic about references I have yet to understand because I was a kid like in Space jam when out of nowhere they did pulp fiction reference. I had no idea what was going on
God dammit this video title hurts me. I love like… five different Indiana Jones games. I’d rather play as him than some imitator. But after the Dial of Destiny box office… it’s sadly true.
My personal favorite piece of Indiana Jones media does actually not involve Harrison Ford. Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis is one of my favorite games from my teens
I was born in the 90s and can barely remember shit from all the muppets and doug I watched. How do you remember these specific things? Jealous of your memory powers.
I'm looking forward to the next game from Machine Games. I've been a big fan of their work from the early Starbreeze days. They've made so many great games. Enclave HD just came out and it just goes to show how long they've had a huge talent for making games. Also their templar game is easy to miss as their Riddick game is one of their most recognizable work.
Maybe Jonesy understands that both the game and franchise have an uphill battle. But even if the game sells well and is called "great" by players the franchise itself will still be rather weak until it can produce a film that sells tickets. Or maybe an Indiana Jones television show will become a hit, a great game alone will not make Indiana Jones a strong competing multimedia franchise.
Great episode as always but I will say putting Wonder Woman above captain America and black panther in terms of brand strength seems really strange to me.
Black Panther and Captain America have only really become relevant in the last decade because of the MCU. The Lynda Carter Wonder Woman show was a hit on prime time TV all the way back in the 70s. In terms of overall brand strength she smokes both of them.
@carruthers100aptain America had a single TV movie from 1979 that was universally panned and that I didn't even know existed until I just googled it. Wonder Woman was one of ABC/CBS's biggest shows while it was on. Not even remotely comparable.
@@chuc.dxq3809 but we are talking about current standings of the characters and I would argue captain America and black panther is far more relevant than wonder woman is, especially amongst younger audiences.
@@librarygary1618brand strength not brand recognition. Wonder Woman has had one kinda decent, and one terrible solo movie. Plus the mediocre justice league film. Captain America's weakest movie was his first, he's only grown in popularity as the Marvel films came out. He was done perfectly in Infinity War and Endgame. Black Panther too. These movies have left a huge impression on the whole superhero genre, whereas I'd argue that the Wonder Woman films were pretty forgettable.
iirc there were good soundalikes for him in previous indiana jones games. but theres just something sad and off-putting to me about casting soundalikes. get the original actor or cast the best actor for the role. and if the best actor for the role can do a mean harrison ford...ask him not to.
I have that Disney Adventures issue. It's a promo for Tomorrow Never Dies, so you must have seen Goldeneye late. I saw Goldeneye in 1995, 6 years old. So much for kids not knowing who James Bond is. ^_^
pretty sure I played the indiana jones fate of atlantis game as a kid before I saw the films. in games I think indiana jones has always been really well represented and portrayed in games, and the games have always been great, but maybe that's just an old man perspective at this point. thinking of the old pc games, the super nintendo platformer by factor5, and also the other 3d factor5 game (infernal machine maybe). the lego indiana jones game for wii was also really really good because it had the exploit thing so you could install the hack homebrew stuff on it LOL
What about Iron Man game GTA5 style where you are Tony Stark, you can run around big map, drive cars and so on.

If it were possible to make a game about Tony Stark before he became Iron Man then GTA5 would be more appropriate.
@@charoleawood That's why I said Tony Stark and not Iron Man. That his life in a city is different than being superhero. I want living city like in GTA because there is more incentive to protect it.

That is why I specified GTA5 because there is a lot more to that world than just drive drive shoot shoot.

The first three Indiana Jones movies are worth watching Kyle
Surprised no Wolverine, is that a final title?
Don‘t know if anyone said it yet but I really like the new background this season :)
I’ve been meaning to watch No Time To Die for years. I’m so glad I actually paused this to watch it. I actually really liked the ending.
(apologies to Flannery and the Phoenix family)
By one human being Kyle, what about River Phoenix?!?
Kyle wants a Hulkbuster Iron Man game and I respect it.
Kyle Bosman's sleep audio of him sounding like a Pokemon should be him only muttering his own name.
I've watched Spaceballs like 10 times 15 years before I've watched my first Star Wars movie.
I’m sad that Kyle isn’t an Indiana Jones guy.
It’s nice to know what song I’ll have in my head this weekend. “When your room looks kind of weird and you wish that you weren’t there…”
the ending left me in tears
IO interactive's cursor is indeed a delayed input effect
River Phoenix played a young Indy.
There's also that Wolverine game.
Insomniac has already resciended his official "Friend of Spider-Man Card" for that blunder. Sorry Kyle, i don't make the rules.
I wasn't watching the screen at the beginning of the video so at first I thought it was another ad. That was an interesting couple of seconds. XD

Kyle referenced him saying "apologies to whoever this is" 3:28

I fast forwarded until the Craig thumbnail was gone 😄
Hahaha oh my gosh did Kyle Bosman see my comment on the Grinch videogame trailer!!? You know what you have to do Kyle you know you gotta play it!
"James Bond's girlfriend and daughter" 🤣 given the reputation of James Bond, I genuinely didn't know if there was a comma in that statement.
Where would Wolverine land though
Kyle was that your best Sauruman impression because color me impressed
That fourth movie along with cancelling that 360 AAA project hurt the brand to this day imo
Hey, that recording at the start sounded like me every morning I have to wake up.
Whenever Kyle says "this is" it 100% sounds like he's about to sing "the story of a girl" next.
Yes, that is the running gag!
I still have no idea why he started it
God dammit this video title hurts me. I love like… five different Indiana Jones games. I’d rather play as him
than some imitator. But after the Dial of Destiny box office… it’s sadly true.
I love how Kyle in the intro is about to turn off the recording, and then starts nodding his head like “let him cook”
Another perfectly cut ending
