Comments on Indiana Jones Returns...

It's depressing that at least a third of the trailer is there to tell young audiences who Indiana Jones was, back in the previous century

12 year old self: "YES YES YES YES YES!"
Current self: "YES YES YES YES YES!"

Dude, thank you for posting that!!! I got chills. I don't even care if it ends up being bad, it will still be awesome anyway.

I'll see it.

Indiana Jones and the Age of Computer-Generated Graphics

AND, May 22 is Harrison Ford's 89th birthday!

I'll probably go see it, but that trailer doesn't really do much for me, aside from emphasizing how OLD Harrison Ford is.

Although it's nice to see that ginormous warehouse back - makes me wonder what other "relics" are stashed away in there.

even his feet look old! when he hobbles around to pick up his hat... they should have used a leg double on that scene.

if it ends up being a bunch of, "i'm getting to old for this..." jokes, it will be lame. and the cgi is not raising my hopes...

Harrison Ford is the best argument I can think of for staying thin and in shape. If you can pull off this stuff at 65 - well...I need to lose some weight.

Looking forward to a butch, little Shia, too.

I found the trailer's messianic intro cheesy, but the rest of it made me very happy. Nice to see them acknowledge Indy's advancing age humorously.

@5: Spielburg has said that there will be no CGI in Indy IV, to remain consistent with the style of the earlier flicks. All FX are mechanical.

@5 yeah... that short clip with those four columns coming together looked fake as hell, and that's on the tiny web screen.

"Part time"

What's up with the crate marked "Roswell, NM?"

Are we going to see Indy fighting aliens?

I hope I'm half as good looking when I'm 65.

The Hill music video was better.

Shia LaBeouf? Seriously? What a disappointment. But he couldn't ruin Transformers, so hopefully he won't ruin Indiana Jones. He only partially dampened my spirits.

@15, "he couldn't ruin Transformers" -- so hilarious, that's like saying "at least he didn't spoil that painful bout of explosive, bloody diarrhea"

Dear Steven Spielberg,

Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please don't let George Lucas fuck this up too.

Sincerely,
My Childhood

Who gives a fuck if Indiana Jones is old? Anyone who actually thinks that's a problem is not only lame, but ageist. Setting an Indiana Jones movie in the 1950s is a great idea. Yes, the movie might suck, but you know what, it has nothing to do with Harrison Ford's age. I know how the youth worship youth, but come on you chumps! This could be very cool.

How is he able to retrieve his whip after each swing?

WOW CGI!

FUCK YOU, LUCAS

Can't wait can't wait can't wait.

20: Yes, because Lucas totally vetoed everything Spielberg wanted. So there's some CGI matte art and some cgi where minatures would have been. Big fucking deal. That doesn't mean there aren't real stunts or vehicles. CGI stunts would be bad; however using CGI for big cliffsides and exploding vehicles isn't really a hell of a lot different than using models and matte paintings.

Good movies don't have exploding vehicles in them at all.

That's a lovely observation, but completely wrong. Good movies are not judged by such arbitrary standards. A movie is good or it isn't. The genre doesn't matter period. You may want to pretend it does, but any critic worth their salt will tell you you're full of shit.
