Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

[BloodyWolverine]

I will say this Indy 4 looks like the 80s films too me which is good and its nice to see tradition again.

 

[DuncanOToole]

123 minutes... hmm second longest Indy film to date.

 

[Gamma Ray]

Whenever I see Shia in that getup, all I think is "Tool".

 

[BloodyWolverine]

Steven Speilberg likes Shia and he is in Transformers 2which Spielberg is producing and he is a nice oppisite fit for the Older Harrison who uses dry humor.

This is from Wizard. Is this true? T.O.D. is before Raiders?

Yep.

 

[WompuM]

And this has been established forever? I had no idea.

 

[danoyse]

And this has been established forever? I had no idea.

Yep. It says "South America - 1936" at the beginning of Raiders, and "Shanghai - 1935" at the beginning of Temple of Doom. It's always been that way.

 

[Gamma Ray]

Whoa! I didn't know that either!

Whoa! I didn't know that either!

You haven't been paying attention while watching the movies.

 

[Spider-Fan]

I never knew for sure T.O.D. happened before Raiders, but I always assumed it did.

 

[Gold Samurai]

^and yet how was Indy so sure of himself when he faced those two thugee swordsmen near the end if he hadn't experienced "Raiders" yet?

I was thinking of that last night. Perhaps there was a similiar experience before.
Even Indy isn't immune to the "prequel".

 

[cerealkiller182]

Its weird because Indy definitely has different more selfish motivations in TOD which he overcomes by the end and is pretty dead set on gathering and protecting artifacts in the rest of them for the sake of doing so rather than "fortune and glory"

but i suppose an American with a gun would obviously go for it when faced with two swordsman
