Have you ever wondered if Indiana Jones would become an alcoholic loser? Wonder no more. In Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny you get to see him as one on the big screen. Yes, thanks again to Kathleen Kennedy and Lucasfilm, we get to witness the destruction of another loved George Lucas character. Let’s feel the pain together

Here we go again! Is this the end of Indiana Jones or Kathleen Kennedy? You can find me on Twitter and Instagram. And do the “Like”, “Subscribe” and “Bell” thing so you don’t miss a video. Stay Safe Legends!
why are you making us pick the end of just one?!
@braintrain4310 Youre not wrong. Even if she werent incompotent with the series, for the love of christ, stop beating a dead horse. Indiana Jones deserved to end early on a high note instead of having a dead corpse paraded around like the Star Wars franchise.
It’s “The German Socialists Party”.😉👍
I guess most of the reshoots were to make sure Phoebe franchise-killer's hair was covering that thing on her forehead.
Phoebe waller-bridge is in English 7 A Las Vegas 2 😂😂 🤮🤢
My nephew is writing an entire essay and presentation at school about Kathleen Kennedy being the embodiment of how not to conduct business, or manage a company. I’m a very proud uncle.
Smart Kid 👍

Hopefully his teacher isn’t a woketard. One must be careful not to offend a member of their cult, especially if a student dependent upon their good graces for a good grade. It would be quite difficult to be a student in this day & age.
Disney will sue him.
Incompetent, but un-fireable people in public-facing positions are promoted so they can do less damage in day-to-day operations while being able to save face. The drawback of this strategy is that they eventually have nowhere higher to go.
Disney really managed to make 2 of the most beloved IPs and a whole billion dollar studio worthless in under 10 years. Genius.
Disney paid 4 billion for Lucasfilm. Lucas should buy it back for 1 billion.
Indiana Jones' was finished in 1989, trekked along with a tv show in the 90s for a couple years, ill fate and ego got him back in 2008, then a dead IP for more than half a generation. I don't think that's beloved by kids of your generation. My 1980s generation, it was beloved in the era it was meant to stay in. I can think of 5 film IPs that's more beloved and relevant than Indiana Jones is today that's now handled by the rotten Disney company.
more than that! let's see, just off the top of my head, star wars, indiana jones, little mermaid, peter pan, all of marvel, predator, i'm scared to think how the next aliens is gonna turn out but for whatever reason they are pushing that to 2025 (and they''ve already been working on it) etc etc etc
@@XX-121 An historic R-rated film series now under the banner of Disney, a girl brand film studio - how'd you think it's gonna turn out? Aliens with pronouns shown the errors of their ways by a gender studies female lecturer who don't need no man.
Disney sucks, but to be fair Indiana Jones was ruined by the time Crystal Skull came around, which wasn't a Disney movie.
You have to admire Kathlene's dedication to destroying the images of men that boys looked up to when she was young.
Because she served coffee to those men in Hollywood and she probably spilled it too.
I’m just happy we grew up with them. Born in 94
My son was born in 93 he had an Indy hat leather jacket and whip he asked if he could take me to see the new Indy film I said “honey it’s too late in this world for Indy fans” 😢
Nah i wont go that far
But yeah star movies were bad
Wow your such a man; furiously typing at your desk instead of going outside and working.
They killed his kid, separated from his wife & an alcoholic. Sounds like an amazing story, honestly WTF.
Why would Harrison sign up to destroy a character that made his career.
Don't be so soft, Indie is old...shit happens when you get old....his character deals with it.
Because Harrison isn't in the acting business for the art, he's in it for that money son 🤑 (can't blame him)
@@davek1728more like shit happens when Kathleen Kennedy is in charge the script is shit even if you don’t except it. And the box office pull will expose this crap film
@@davek1728 If that criticism is soft, what does that make you? A chump that will accept bottom of the barrel stories from billion dollar studios?
@@lukastaylor1397 Or perhaps he thinks the art part is only "serious" Oscar bait type movies, and is maybe a bit pissed he didn't get more of those roles during his career. Alec Guinness is said to have been pissed when his role in the little movie he presumably did just for the money and what was not supposed to be that big, "Star Wars", ended up kind of eclipsing his whole long and illustrious acting career to the younger generations, to the point when he reportedly was sometimes rather rude to people who tried to get his autograph and said that it was because he played Obi-Wan Kenobi. So maybe Ford likewise ended up not liking his best-known and best-loved roles because he would have maybe preferred to be better known for something like his role in "Witness".
Well, that would anyway make sense as to why he never has seemed to like Han Solo or Indiana Jones all that much. And took the roles in these last movies.
Copy the stories (badly). Destroy the characters (maliciously). Step 3: p̶r̶o̶f̶i̶t̶

No, no. You don't understand: The Underpants Gnomes are highly experienced businessmen with an actual plan, who would love to make a profit! Like a cuter, furrier version of the Ferengi! I will NOT allow you to compare either the Gnomes, or the Ferengi to the mentally ill, braindead evil, that is Lucasfilm!
Copy the story - CAPITALISM
Ruin the story - WOKE COMMUNISM
how was Indiana Jones destroyed?

A good comment deserves to be seen by all.
In my opinion the Last Crusade was the perfect ending to the Series with the three of them riding off into the sunset.
Just like Return of the Jedi was the perfect ending to that storyline with Luke looking at the Force Ghosts of Yoda, Kenobi and Anakin as the movie ends.
Disney (Kathleen Kennedy) is ruining our beloved franchises one by one. It's a sad sight to see. I never want to show my future children Star Wars Eps 7-9 or Indiana Jones Dial of Destiny
Didnt ruin anything for me. I didnt watch that KK Crap... 🤷♀️
I agree, he couldn't walk away from all that moola. Beat it to death.
FAKE NEWS! This film was way better then The Crystal Skull! Thankfully i didnt listen and saw the new movie for myself! I liked it!
@@GEN_X_ Bless your Heart!
Damn... Indy coming out of comfortable retirement to help Mutt save Short Round is such an excellent idea...
I would’ve loved to have seen Shia back as Mutt… he played him really well and deserved more credit for it. Instead they fucking killed him and replaced his likeable character for an insufferable whore.
Disney & ILM had a SE Asia CIA/Phoenix Program plot. But Lucas & Steven Spielberg said: no!
Imagine that being the movie, how good it could have been. Damn. Instead we got this pile of garbage. 😢
Rey's smug "I bypassed the compressor" still makes me LOL to this day.
Compressors aren't a thing you can bypass. They're inline because a process fluid needs to be compressed. If your whatchamacallit isn't working because the compressor isn't working, bypassing it just means now it's *really* not working.
Dude, she's just that good. It's girlpower.
Maybe she used the Force as a compressor?
I'm not a mechanic but I can imagine it's like a surgeon talking about a patient who had a heart failure and saying: "I bypassed the heart!"
@@democrazy69 "The vagina is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural.”
@@-ca-- We can actually do that, though with heart bypass machines.
If it's one thing you can count on from Lucasfilm is heroes turning into failed bums.

Male* heroes
Lol, someone in Disney corporate has daddy/hero issues that they are working through.
@@eddysandland58 its gotten so obvious at this point. Its rlly not okay. This sh*t is not acceptable anymore. Ive had enough dude
Back in the 80's, we joked as kids that they will keep making sequels of our favorite movies until our heroes are old ass men.
Then they stop making those amazing 80's movies Ghostbusters, Star Wars, Indiana Jones and Back To the Future in the early 90's. After around 25 years they started bringing them back with the actors at old age which doesn't make sense.
The studios 🎬 did that with Die Hard, Lt John McClaine.
Now imagine Indy's retirement as a joyful event. His last lesson ends with students' standing ovation and proffesor shedding a tear. He meets his wife, son, Salah and other friends at the party. He also meets Helena and Basil, but on a wheelchair. Then the plot with Dial may start...
Having the memories of Henry and Marcus in his mind. Now that would be perfect

Seriously - this state blows.
Don't pity the living ( in Indiana ) !!
Pity the ones sitting in the screenings right now...
( Well, wrong franchise, but they'll be ruining that as well)
Well, look at it from the bright side: at least Kathleen has destroyed every Lucasfilm property, so she's about done right.... right? RIGHT???
😂😮😢
Maybe she'll make a really good Howard the Duck.
@@LimitedCheetah Sounds promising
@@LimitedCheetahThen we’d really be in the wrong timeline if Howard the Duck was actually good.

Honestly the little kid going from never flying a plane to hot wiring it and flying it in a matter of seconds had me rolling. In the middle of a storm no less. Kathleen Kennedy is the embodiment of everything wrong in society.
Not only that he doesnt know how to swim and yet later ends up swimming lol
I haven't watched it probably wont, but I bet if you look up the plane he hotwired, it probably doesn't have a keyed starter anyways.
Sorry that a movie about time travel wasn’t real enough for you. Lmao
There's a scene in the hotel where the kid is learning how to fly a plane with a pilot.
@@chadfreeman5654simp
love it when reviewers come up with better movie plots than, the writers of the movie who are getting paid thousands!! 😂
Actually, hundreds of thousands.
Sub mediocrity is great work,
if you can get it.
Idk where you're getting the "thousands" figure because if you'd been following film news in the past 4 months you'd know that the writers are on strike because of low wages
KK is making atheist believe in God because how she still has a job after killing Williow SW and now Indiana Jones is truly miraculous
Actually this makes me even more sure that gods don’t exist-if they did she would have been struck down long ago.
As an atheist it's more like I believe god's real now because I've seen the devil and I'm hoping there's something that can save us.
"The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled, was convincing George Lucas to let her run Lucasfilm."
Well, we'll see how long she has a job for. It does beggar belief she could have so thoroughly gutted Lucasfilm with no repercussion to date, but just look at the fubar situation at their owner Disney (I'm looking at you, latest remake of Peter Pan).
In my opinion that just adds to the problem of evil, how can a good god allow such awful things to happen??
Don't be optimistic, Han Solo is an alcoholic in Disney canon too. Maz Canata has his medal because he sold it for drinks.
Really? That’s depressing.
Wait, the one he gets at the end of the movie?
Wow... That sucks, lol. Gotta wonder what Leia thought of that.
I thought every father sold their things for drinks?
Han Jones (or Indiana Solo) - the greatest feminist poster man of all time...
Dollar store Yoda has his medal? 😑
I'm positive that these Mary Sue's are how Kathleen Kenned feels about her self image.
Exactly!
How come everyone can come up with a better story then the people who have the power to make the actual stories?
Rest In Peace
Indiana Jones (1899 - 1969)

yeah but you know what? F harrison ford. he agreed to do this crap after reading the script. and supposedly the original ending was way worse. and i don't doubt that the character died
Amen...
You know, Rome was famous for integrating technology that they were initially unfamiliar with. There's a story from around that time: the Romans managed to build a whole fleet of ships because one crashed as they just copied their design. Now I picture that in this world, that one meme about a Roman with a machine gun is historically accurate.
Getting Darkest of Days flashbacks lmao
I didn’t have much expectations going into the cinema today but it amazes me how far they’ll go to destroy the characters we love that the movie was even worse than I expected
But you still paid for a ticket
Another thing: Disney completely misinterpreted the "hate" that Mutt Williams got as a character. He was fine in the first film, up until the rope swinging with monkeys and other crap like that.
He definitely didn't deserve to be killed off-screen, in Vietnam. And parents in the 1970s didn't get divorced that often. You're telling me that Indy got married and didn't have ANY more kids?? Why get married then...
The plot you made up and spouted off in 90 seconds sounded exponentially better than this movie.
😅Cheers 👍
Imagine what we could've gotten
Fact
Yah that actually was pretty solid. The wrong people keep getting hired.
Agreed!!
Our theater ran Raiders of the Lost Arc during a tribute to great films awhile back. It was nice to see it in the theater again since the first time in 1982. The place was packed and at the end everyone applauded. I remember when people used to clap at the end of great films. Now it's like we're living in some horrible simulation where everything sucks and the worst people in the world are in control of everything, and no one is doing anything about it.
People do question it. And the ADL and SPLC are quickly thrown into action to smear them.
in my theatre people clapped for Dial of Destiny at the end
Need a K on that word.
People can do something and just not watch the rubbish being put out not just by Lucasfilm but Hollywood generally. When profits start failing to appear when a film is released then hopefully the people in charge will have a lightbulb moment. Failing that if they want to sink their company then so be it.
@@JB-lp9xr the theatre room I was in applauded Dial even
I was very disappointed that they killed off Indy’s son. If they have it in their mind that the next Indiana Jones movie passes the mantle off to his Goddaughter. That movie is going bomb.
I taped a brand new ticket for this movie on a display and made sure it was visible at the museum of failure in brooklyn. 🤣🤣🤣
We already saw old Indy in the TV series. And he wasn't sad and depressed. He enjoyed meeting people and telling them stories about his life.
They removed all old Indy scenes in the streaming version. Memory holed.
@@TheSecretWorldRules No, Lucas removed him _decades_ ago when he re-released Young Indy on VHS. Old Indy was only ever on the TV broadcast. It was also trash. He would get his arm stuck in a mail box and yell at TV soap operas. I'm not making that up.
…wait, there’s a TV series…??
Phoebe Waller bridge as an action star is like watching a new born giraffe learning to ice skate. Googling droid literally shows pictures of droids. I will never forgive this woman for ruining the falcon.
That clip where she pretends droids are a rare and obscure concept... Holly duck, how can one be this undereducated? It's hilarious
Oh yes she was that stupid feminist droid!
@@GerardMenvussaAccording to current Hollywood standards this should qualify her for the next sequel/prequel/remake of Blade Runner or Terminator 😁
What they did to the Falcon (among many, many other things), is why I draw the line when Lucas sold out. Everything Disney is Tumblr tier “fan” fiction, and we should only pay attention to it to mock it.
The British have a long lasting habit in sending their least attractive packhorse actresses over to populate American film and tv. Poop Bridge is the latest but won't be the last - British talent is mere cents on the dollar.
That was brutal, brilliant, perfect editing, delivery & funny AF.
Damn Robot head, you're pretty sharp.
Even the color tone of this film was so wrong. Indiana Jones films were vibrant and colorful ,promising the audience escapist fun. Dial of destiny has such a dark color grading that did not go well with the theme of Indiana Jones. Also, fantasy elements were missing from the trailer.
While not from blue blood myself I move in posh British circles. Believe me, I've never met anyone who finds Waller-Bridge attractive. She's generally regarded as the bright quirky one you have to be nice to because you're interested in her sister.
😂😂😂
I am from the Uk too. I had never even heard of her until she got involved in the last Bond script. Saw her as the droid in Solo and never want to see her in anything ever again. Or hear about her. EVER. She is so annoying and up herself and so in awe of her own talents, that she thinks she has, but in fact she is very VERY over rated. Fleabag is the sort of crap that sad, bitter women love. The ones that are dumped for being annoying, controlling or too clingy or just weird. These are the same sort of women that raved about Bridget Jones. My ex wife was obsessed with Bridget...to the point of it being disturbing. Just part of the reason why she is now my ex wife.....As long as Bridge continues with the crap she is doing and gets a few more flops under her belt her bubble will burst and she will be gone and not missed by many....
@@Simon-xc5oy I'd heard about Fleabag and presumed from what people were saying that it was a slightly darker ripoff of Miranda Hart. Wasn't interested.
I've always had a soft spot for blue stockings but not the likes of Waller-Bridge.
Incidentally, in my journalism days I met Fielding (Bridget Jones writer). She was great fun and absolutely not a Bridget.
Hahahaha it's interesting how the vast majority of the whole world despises these "posh British circles" you move in. You're literally one of the least liked groups of people on the planet!😂😂
Can’t bloody stand her.
Ah yes, Disney, Kathleen Kennedy, James Mangold, Phoebe Waller Bridge, and everyone who've disgraced ALL other, once great franchises, have done it again. Disgracing the legacy and character of Indiana Jones, to the "surprise" of NONE.
Bruh, Logan was a god send to Wolverine fans.
Harrison should also be implicated.
I cannot stand the talentless Phoebe crap Bridge. When I heard she was in Indy 5, I immediately said, not for me!
James Mangold can actually do good work when he gives a shit... sad to see him sell out to Disney like this.
@@petriew2018I’d rather see his Swamp Thing movie under Gunn.
*_Personally,_* I enjoy spending a Saturday night paying dozens of dollars to watch my childhood slowly dismantled piece by piece. And thank you for so prominently featuring footage from the *_real_* Indy films to remind me of just that~
Thanks God I don't feel the same......
It wasn't bad at allllllllllllllllllllll
Indies dad was successful and brilliant in his career but was a less than ideal father.
It was a well written flaw that helped define Indie's character. They both loved each other unconditionally & absolutely as father & son, but each had their own flaws and struggles.
It was fantastic character writing.
I feel like Henry Jones Sr wouldn't have stood for this
He would've slapped that annoying woman around.
He would've chewed out Fleabag for being so condescending towards Indy. He literally did nothing wrong towards her and was treating her with kindness and respect but she's got a chip on her shoulder for no reason. If anything Indy was trying to fix her home life by taking the dial
do you think they killed off Indy's son just to make sure he isn't the one to be the new Indy....paving the way for his God-daughter? Cindy-Anna Jones
CindyAnna 😂. Actually, this movie left a possibility for his son to come back. Not a major one and I don't think it will happen but if you pay close attention there is a way that his son could come back
@@solsticebabyMF HOW? HE’S DEAD
@@insertfunnynamehere5592 have you seen it yet?
@@solsticebaby yes and I don’t remember them implying anything about bringing him back
@@insertfunnynamehere5592 Oh they didn't overtly so. Like I said it was just a possibility. So do you remember when they were on the deck and she asked him when he would go back to? She said something about checking in on Cleopatra? And then he said that he would go back to when his son enlisted and tell him not to? So they just sort of left that little nugget there. Okay fine. And then at the very end when he wakes up back in his bed the dial is on his nightstand.
So I'm not saying I think they will make it happen, but he does have the dial. And he could go back to when his son enlists. So the possibility is there.
I agree that a better movie would be either Indy and Mutt teaming up to save Short round or Indy and Short round teaming up to save Mutt. Honestly however I feel the best way to do this movie would be a little lower stakes. Have it centered around recovering the Peacocks Eye that was from the opening scene of the Temple of Doom and make the Villians Chinese Triad gangs. Each movie dosen't need to have these world ending artifacts and a simple last "easy" adventure would be a better send off for Indy.
@1:10
holy shit. i had completely forgotten that Rey didn't even know which eye to close when she was aiming the blaster.
One of the most wholesome things I ever read was (Short Round) Ke Huy Quan's account of running into Harrison Ford many years after they last met on the set of Temple of Doom. He was nervous because it had been so long, and expected to not be recognized for how old he was.
Harrison Ford immediately recognized him and they had a bit of a joyful nostalgic reunion on the spot.
Imagine if Kathleen Kennedy had made a story about the ('diverse' I might add) character who SHOULD have stepped into Indiana Jones' shoes, instead of trying to force a Harrison Ford character bend a knee to yet another self insert feminist bri'ish lady character with an unearned place in the story.
I would defiantly watch a Short Round series (if made properly) and he even has a name that you could use in a title.
It's clear that none of you were around when Temple of Doom came out in 1984. Everyone HATED Short Round. He was compared with Scrappy Doo. That's why he wasn't in Last Crusade. Take off your nostalgia glasses. They make you look really stupid.
the chemistry between indy and shortround in the movie is brutal (as a kid i was envious of shorty lol)
It's easy to believe that years later they still keep the feeling
This is just a small tangent, but Harrison Ford in the original trilogy had the absolute best scruff look. There’s just something about day-old facial hair that can look really awesome, and he is one of the best examples of it.
He had it all ❤❤❤
Im not gay but...
🥵🥵🥵
I thought when I saw Indy wanting to stay in ancient Rome, that he might get some sense of closure as a character, while also having the opportunity to learn and discover things, which seems on brand. But no, now he's depressed again lol
Yeah,would have been good
I am so glad I found your channel. I have went back through your catalog. Brilliant!
I honestly was looking forward to the adventures of Indiana Jones and Shia LaBeouf after seeing the end of Crystal Skull. IF they had to make more movies that's what I would have wanted.
This, is very far from that.
Yeah I think Shia was good for the franchise and a charismatic actor. He has the talent to continue Indys legacy for future movies too. The return of short round would have been so good though. It would have ticked the diversity box too.
Yeah , " Mutt " is dead !
Indiana Jones and theFate of Atlantis. great stuff!
@@ox_trueprotagonistchrisred9085 The Crystal Skull did not take place during World War II. It took place during the late 1950's during the Cold War with Russia. It's obvious that you didn't see the film.
Correct, to smoke Mutt by having him die in SE Asia 1960s was a bad idea. 👎🏼 Mutt not Marion could have shown up, Green Beret & Army class As. Then he grabs the fedora!
The Short Round missed opportunity is disgraceful, they did this in Force Awakens when they forever lost the chance of Luke, Leia and Han getting back TOGETHER on screen….
Totally unforgivable…🤬
100% agreed. Especially considering how Ke Huy Quan is so back in the public consciousness. Obviously no one knew he would win an Oscar after Dial of Destiny was complete. But, every scenario I came up with in my own mind for an INDY 5 involved a mature, successful, ass kicking Short Round.
Just imagine Shorty being well dressed, respected, successful person. All thanks to Indy saving him from a life on the streets 34 years prior!
@@user-friendly92380 No we don't want to offend other races. Only a narrow minded jackass does that.
They added Sallah so Short Round as a adult, CIA guy or scientist isn't hard. There are 10-15 plots that would be much more doable.
Your comment about they don't write new stories, they just ruin old ones, really hit true. I get so tired of seeing the exact same plot in every movie today. It's getting so easy to not see anything these devoted communists intentionally ruin. Great video.

I have my own personal take on this movie, when Phoebe's character knocks out Indy she returns one week prior to the time she left, she then call's Indy's wife to ask him to come and be with him. So, none of the nonsense in the movie actually happens, it is all wiped out. Indy will figure this out when he returns to work and is once again presented with that clock.
…that
actually isn’t a bad idea
Especially considering she’d absolutely get the calculations right on her own where the guys who spent years studying it DIDN’T 😂
Hearing old Harrison's voice coming from de-aged Young Indy was quite jarring.
The most unbelievable part of this movie is them trying to convince me that someone would date phoebe Waller bridge
I genuinely don't understand why she gets attention.
MAYBE some con man would date her just to get to her money.
SPOILER ALERT: This movie is already spoiled. By being made.
The movie went downhill in the classroom scene when that Kathleen Kennedy character was answering all the questions like she knows everything. I liked the train scenes and when he was about to get hanged and this bomb dropped out of nowhere. That was classic Indiana Jones stuff. I am open to just having CGI movies with the classic characters as they looked in their prime.
I like to think this movie takes place entirely within his head after he went upstairs to find something to show to the grandkids then he slipped and fell and sustained a severe concussion

The fact that one trick pony Fleabag is a co-star says enough.
I kept waiting for Helena to bypass a compressor. But then I realized that this movie is Helena bypassing one big compressor, over and over in the audiences face.
To be fair, a man like Connery never would've allowed himself to be emasculated on screen the way Harrison Ford has multiple times. When Connery "revisited" his most iconic character at an older age, he was still a total badass. While the characters ARE NOT actually the same (as I've seen far too many people trying to claim on the internet), Connery's character in The Rock is CLEARLY a wink-wink, nod-nod callback to his days as James Bond. And despite being 65 years old when The Rock was filmed, he was STILL the most badass character in the movie. What Harrison Ford has allowed his iconic characters to be turned into by scum like Kathleen Kennedy is totally disgraceful.
Amen. Sadly, so did Mark Hamill in The Last Jedi.
I mean to be fair my guy Harrison just wants the paycheck, he didn't give a fuck about Star Wars or Indiana Jones anymore. Dude is old and probably only acting for his kids and his grandkids
Hubris and narcissitic behavior has brought us to this point. I seriously can't fathom how KK has kept her job through all these absolute failures given how much Disney loves their money. Which BTW, to denigrate 'capitalism' (the line from Fleabag in the movie) is the purest definition of hypocrisy I can think of. Well done Disney execs! :)
6:50 that is exactly what this movie should have been. Indy, his son, and Short Round on one last adventure together.
KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL perhaps i treated you too harshly.
nah its still not as good as dial
No. You didn't.
Short Round telling Indy he loves him has more heart than anything in Crystal Skull. People slag off Temple of Doom, but that moment always makes me tear up. They had such natural chemistry that you absolutely believe that bond. I wish they’d addressed whatever happened to Shorty.
Yes me too. He is there front and centre and big part of Temple and you get the impression Indy is going to take him to America and adopt him and raise him as his own. Then along comes Crusade and not a mention of Short Round, he is just gone like he never was. Instead we get Connery as his Father who was never mentioned at all in the previous films, he is just appears and they decide to fill in the back story at long last. Well some of it.....
Crystal Skull is a good movie. Temple of Doom is a lousy movie.
@@SymphonyBrahms Temple of Doom is a great movie. Crystal Skull is a trash movie.
they kinda did,although not in the movies.Dr Jones adopted Short Round,who grew up,went to college,and became an Archeologist,just like Indy!!!!!
Much to my surprise my two kids 10 & 13 say they like Doom way more than Raiders. Kids these days....
What an adventure it could have been with Indy and Short Round (he was amazing in Temple of Doom) rescuing his boy. Sallah would have been needed too, along with Marion. Imagine to end all these decades of heroic adventures in glorious fun and victory, uniting us all once again in pure delight! Maybe in the future...with even better AI...
Yes, SE Asia would of worked or Nazis in Argentina. Or my choice, have Abner Ravenwood being alive and help Indy in WW2 then give Jones the items to later stop Schmidt. 1960s.
This Indiana Jones has no connective tissue to the previous films. I think what they should have done was have Mutt go MIA while in Vietnam, Indy not accepting this, a rumor swirling around that he was lost in the jungle searching for something linked to Atlantis ( or something else of that magnitude ) and make the final Indy movie about a father searching for his son and bringing him back home to his family. Mutt would be in the tail end of the film needing rescue ( mainly bc audiences didn’t like him ) but it would have been a father son story and more of a proper send off than the depressing shit we ended up with. It would have linked this final film to the others in a more meaningful way and actually given Mutt / Shia the opportunity to redeem the character, see him mature. Could have even added the line in there that a fathers love for his child is worth more than any silly artifact much like his father did to him at the end of Crusade.
There are three Indiana movies, there are three Star Wars movies, that’s it.
And two Terminator movies.
there's 5 Indiana Jones movies and 3 Star Wars(the Prequels) and Rogue One
@@coolcat23 3rd one wasnt that bad tbh
@@pink_kino lets see if anyone is talking about the crystal skull, dial of destiny and rogue one in 40 years time.
And the clone wars too idc what you say
Firstly, I thought the film was fine. Watchable, unremarkable, and totally ok.
But the point is well made and the film keeps asking us, ‘where does Indy belong?’ The answer? In the past. He deserves to be preserved as that late 30s Harrison Ford, Hollywood’s last true leading man, in the era which informed the tone of the property to begin with.
That moment in Temple of Doom when the camera dollies in on him in the mine. The hero. That’s how we want to view Indy.
I agree, I saw it on the 4th of July, thought it was ok(Last Crusader and Lost Ark were better though) but Helena was annoying as hell for me.
3:40 "German wearing, black dude" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love the way you say "DVD" ... "dey vey dey" hahahahaha 😂
Next Disney will be remaking THX 1138 just to ruin that as well. Poor George Lucas.
THX 1138 what that??

I have to question everything when we look back at the Crystal Skull with fond thoughts….. ugh, how far we’ve fallen.
Same situation as the Star Wars prequels
The Crystal Skull is really pretty good. Unlike The Temple of Doom which is dreadful.
@@SymphonyBrahms I think I gotta agree w u on that one.
Nah better than crystal; still flawed, bloated tedious chases, but Mads mik was good. No giant killer ants, waterfalls, jonesy, jeep fencing, vine swinging, lost tribe, quicksand chat, bad aliens and nuclear fridges. 😱🤦🏻♂️nonono
Lucas did this when selling the rights to Lucas Film to Disney. I know why he did it, he walked away with more money than God but why do we all have to suffer 🤬
I can't shake the feeling that Kathleen Kennedy never matured beyond being a five-year-old and thinks that everyone should love the story of the princess who never has to do anything but is always successful and nothing ever goes wrong because she is a princess.
Something I never understood is why he became such disliked teacher? In 1, 3 and 4, the students couldnt get enough of him. A girl wrote "love you" on her eyelids, they were fighting to get into his office in number 4 and his classes were full every time. This movie nobody even cared for some reason. He didn't even have anyone who want to fight with him. Number 1 there was Marion and Sallah, 2 there was Willie and Short Round, 3 there was his dad, Marcus and Sallah again, 4 there was Mutt and Marion again. For some reason, nobody liked him in number 5 and I don't get why. Sallah should've been the friend who went with him when he dropped him off at the airport or he shouldn't have split with Marion and she could've gone with him
This movie isnt even worth pirating. Your review is everything i need
Oh crap. You might be on to something there. It makes perfect sense to me now. All these horrible movies are made that way to stop piracy. Profits be damned, pirates bad. 🤣 🤣🤣
@@LouisNothing well. In their minds, it makes perfect sense 😃
Please use this comment for the IMDB reviews... 6.9 is FAR too high for this piece of trash! I think there are a lot of fake disney reviews in there right now.
Trust me, its awesome. Its really sad to me that everyone hates it…
@@Razblox_YT we’re fed up of fake cgi and depressed male legends
Sean Connery in the 3rd movie is old but still filled with life and spirit. The movie could have make it like the animation Up - old age can wear someone down physically but the spirit of adventure is always there waiting to wake up. Ahhhh what am I saying with Disney and KK behind this, its never gonna work not in a million years. I am now super happy boycotting Disney for destroying my childhood hero.
Sean Connery was 56 when that was made. Ford is 81.
@@lauraesposito339 Sean Connery was born 1930 and he was 58 when the 3rd movie was being made and 59 in 1989 when it was released, but still way younger than Ford in the latest movie.
Mutt could be away fighting in Vietnam, and Indy could still be married. Marion could have been captured and it could have been a rescue arc. Like if you think this plot I wrote while smoking a joint is better than what we got.
I like your idea for a plot surrounding Indy’s son and Shortround. If time travel was the direction they really wanted to go tho, they should’ve had Indy’s son been presumed dead but Indy believes he’s lost in time or something, then he has to go and save him. Him and Marion could’ve split up bc she was trying to accept her son was gone and Indy wouldn’t give up looking for him. Maybe the British Mary Sue was Indy’s son wife/girlfriend and she had been searching with Indy so they have a solid relationship and chemistry, and a mutual reason for going on an adventure together. Indy could’ve been a defeated, depressed old man like Kathleen wants our favorite characters to be except it wouldn’t just be because he’s an old white man, it would be because of all the times he’s tried and failed to find his son. Just my idea tho lmao
Compare this movie to say, Uncharted 4. It had a similar situation with Nate. He retired from adventuring and was living a normal life with his wife. But he wasn't miserable. Sure, he missed the old days, but he knew it was behind him. And he was happy. It wasn't until his believed to be dead(and somewhat shoehorned in) brother cam back and pulled him into his final adventure.
Saw this in a VanityFair article that popped up:
Dial of Destiny also transforms Waller-Bridge’s posh, brainy persona into an unlikely but bona fide action star: leaping across buildings, jumping off moving vehicles, punching villains, fighting off creepy-crawlies. “I’ve always been such a lanky, gangly kind of awkward physical person, so I was as surprised as you are,” Waller-Bridge says with delight. “I remember quite early on saying to Jim and Kathleen, ‘So I’ll be doing lots of training for my stunt debut?’ And they were like, ‘I think it would be funnier if you don’t.’"
Ah yes, it's "funny" that slim woman can consistently knock out beef'd men, not "bad writing"; silly me
Wow. Just wow.
Bro, you gave us a way better script in a line that had such delivery that it felt like a casual throw away line with no thought behind it, but was still substantiality better then the script we ended up seeing finished on the screen 😂😭
1:47 FINALLY SOMEONE WHO POINTS THAT OUT. It's pissing me of when people say "Germans" instead of "Nazis". It's not the same, guys.
So the ending is so bad that Indy would rather die than endure it.
It wasn't at allllllllllllllllllllll
Did Harrison lose a bet where all the characters that made him big have to be torn down? Part of me almost feels sorry for him. Almost.
Don’t feel sorry, he supported the child molester Roman Polanski
New plot....Atlantis! And I don't even work for Disney 😂
Bro, seriously came up with a way better idea for this movie than dozens of writers did. Smh
She is what you might call a handsome woman. Beautiful is something entirely different.
No no no put a bag on it's head. I'm not even sure that's a woman. We can't possibly know.
She looks like someone tried to clone Keira Knightley but they fucked it up.
Handsome 🤣 I take it you been on a 48 hour binge drinking run before writing this.
Yeah, handsome money to her to destroy the movies.
Didn't you get the memo? ALL wahmen are beautiful, no matter what they look like, no matter their size.
Fingers crossed this gets kathy booted sooner
That should have happened by TLJ. If that didn't get her booted, literally nothing will.
@@billywashere6965 Every film in the sequel trilogy made a big profit. Argue about their quality all you want, but they made money for the studio. The only real flop was SOLO, which was studio mishandled into a big mess, if a somewhat entertaining one. And ROS was much, much worse than TLJ, in my opinion.
@@allanalogmusicat78rpm No, they did not. The first one did, sort of, but the budget + marketing were exorbitant for the sequel trilogy to the point that Solo was considered a flop even though it made back its budget because it also had to cover marketing and the downward trend of retention for the other movies as well. Remember, Disney paid $4 billion for the films, and then invested an additional $1billion in each of the films for marketing and production costs. The films absolutely did not make back that money.
@@allanalogmusicat78rpmthey made big bucks but not enough to justify the incredible costs
A father looking for his son to continue his legacy is a universal theme whether it’s Mutt or Short Round. Missed opportunity for what reason?
3:59 I really liked that the Indy Series is not depicting the Nazis as the main enemies in every instalment but rather any power that is threatening the world's peace and democracy (Thugges and the Soviet Army).
Phoebe Waller Bridge walks into a bar.
The bartender says “Hey. Why the long face?”
Badum tsss!
Hilarious!
Alex Trebek: You're quite proud of yourself, aren't you?
Sean Connery: Ha! Yes, I am!
I can only dream that this pendulum swings back hard in the other direction and we see some amazing films that completely go against all the maligned interests of the current studio tyrants.
unfortunately in the next seven years there is a fake alien invasion coming and a new world order where we're all slaves, so sorry no film renascence.
Cumtown: the movie
Sadly all of these stars are old as heck. Time is against us to save these franchises
@@TheRogueJediiThey can pull CGI necromancy, or just make an animated film outright.
The DCAU for instance, is way better than the (never-existing) DCEU.
@@DonVigaDeFierro no thanks.
I think the main question we should all be asking is… where are the next generation of filmmakers?
I have been perfectly content with the ending to the Indy Jones trilogy for decades now. It ended with Indy, Henry, Marcus, and Sallah riding into the sunset. There was no need for either of the other two sequels.
George Lucas should buy Lucasfilm back, make a new Indiana Jones film, and have the Paramount Logo in the beginning dissolve into a Nazi Castle like Disney's (like Neuschwanstein) and have Indy there unlock some mystery which involves the nazis, hinting some criticism about Disney's poor handling of his franchise.
Idk man I just feel like Disney has no ideas anymore and has to hire an 80 year old to attempt to make money
Next movie will be Harrison Ford in a wheel chair and a colostomy bag with yet another abortion sidekick to "pass the torch to". Whatever it takes to not have Shortround, or at the very least, Shia Labeouf (as set up previously), to take the resigns as the next adventurer.
Their next move will likely be to digitally insert dead actors just destroy their characters.
Reminds me of that robot chicken episode where he’s talking to a crowd and says “I’m 62 years old I’m just an actor you people are all insane”
@jm8082 this is 100% a dystopian future I am not looking forward to. Deep Fakes are going from a trolls tool to a filmaking tool real fast.
Imagine if they "rebooted" I Love Lucy just to CGI in a deepfake Lucille Ball like some corpse puppet, and used her and the show as a platform to mouth off distorted feminist talking points on.
Kind of like the way Hitler had to have children fight his war for him right before he killed himself.
Bloody hell, cutting to a shot of Kate Capshaw after a hundred stills of Phoebe Waller-Bridge was a shock to the system.
I'm 70 years old, and I've never seen a movie so universally and thoroughly panned by critics as this one. Lots of people hate this movie!
The 6 endings, the slew of bad press, K Kennedy, Re writes, SFX delays & Waller Bridge brought this block buster down! Disney knew audiences would not be as kind as 2008.
First result for "Droid" is a robot that resembles a human, first image is a B1 battle droid
This should have been about Indy and his son, similar to the last Crusade reconnecting with him, maybe he's had kids of his own and they have to go an adventure to save them or something and Indy connects with his grandkids. Also include Short Round maybe he followed in Indys footsteps but Disney hate family and legacy so we would never have got that
Indy and Short Round teaming up to go rescue Mutt in Atlantis sounds pretty good.
you mean the Son everyone hated 2 decades ago??? LMAO
@@pink_kino Yeah because everyone just LOOOVES Pheobe Waller Bridge, huh.
@@spenser9908 yeah and everyone just LOOOOOOOOOVED Shia lol, the fandom 20 years ago said that Shia ruined Indiana Jones and everyone HATED the monkey scene
She wasn't that bad, she's tolerable I would have preferred Mutt played by Chris Pratt which I heard was the plan like 5 years ago but hey the movie wasnt that bad anyway.
Gave us prolly the best or 2nd best villain ever in Dial too(dunno if he quite beats Belloq)
@@pink_kino Dude, her character literally tried to kill Indy multiple times. She talks about how she wants the dial to honour her father, then she's off selling it to criminals. Then laughing and cheering after Indy's friend is dead. Then knocks Indy out at the end of the movie. Mutt Williams didn't do anything half as bad as that. By comparison he'd be a welcome return.
Since Disney owns Fox now, I fully expect to see 93 years old and very, very retired Gene Hackman running around New York in French Connection III next.
Do not even suggest that...
@@mala6238 You're right, dang it. Let me burn the pitch then quick: Charnier's sexy granddaughter, presumably played by Eva Green, arrives in NYC along with her gang posse to exact revenge on Jimmy.
There you go, we're safe. They won't use that story for the fear of lawsuit now.
@@kreese-yi2nb 🙏. God thanks, you saved the legacy of 2 perfect movies.
The only part of this entire movie I liked was the sound design on that machine gun that was mounted on the back of the train.
It sounded powerful and punchy as hell and when it was firing out of control it was cool.
Unironically, that's the best thing in the whole movie lmao.
