[@ThisEpicLife]

As someone who grew up in the 70s and 80s I absolutely loved these franchises in a way that most younger people may not fully comprehend. You have to understand that back then we didn’t have internet or cellphones, and only had four or five TV channels. This isn’t a dig on today’s generation, but we generally had to rely on our imaginations. On cold, snowy days, I would pretend I was Han Solo on Hoth. In the Summer, my bicycle became a ROTJ speeder-bike. Cardboard Christmas paper rolls became lightsabers. An old cord became a bullwhip. Etc etc. It’s hard to overstate the emotional bond some of us had with these characters. Pajamas, curtains, lunchboxes…. We ate, lived, and breathed Star Wars and Indiana Jones. I say all of this to emphasize just how personally some of us are taking her treatment of our childhood heroes. It’s like a personal insult. I understand that Harrison is aging and needs to retire from these roles, but the INDIGNITY that she is putting them through, all apparently for the sake of her woke ideology, is infuriating. I also grew up watching great Disney shows like The Cat from Outer Space, Escape from Witch Mountain, Dragonslayer, etc. as well as many hand-me-down comics and books from the golden classic era, featuring Mickey, Donald, and the rest. Disney didn’t suck. They produced outstanding, family-friendly classics, and they set the gold-standard for high production-values and entertaining movies. Now they have sunk so low and milked their franchises so utterly that many hardcore comic/super hero and Star Wars fans aren’t even watching half of the crap that they are putting out. (I’ll probably never finish Andor or some of the last Marvel series shows). It’s disgusting and sad.

[@TromaDogg]

As a 46 year old, this resonates with me massively. Those of us who were lucky enough to grow up in the 1980s developed a huge 'bond' with characters like Han, Luke, Leia, Indy, and Willow and to see them mistreated this way is genuinely heartbreaking 😔

That's how good "strong female characters" actually work, they act as if it's normal. The more time you spend talking/complaining about how people like you aren't in these positions (ironically while being in that position) or how you'll never get this/that opportunity, then all your doing is continuing the stereotype that people like you can't be in those positions or ever get that opportunity so don't even bother trying.... Also, it's almost comical at this point that the only solution hollywood/liberals have to all these problems is to just subject someone else to the same thing they claim IS the problem (i.e no more damsel in distress, instead man in distress.

Hearing Spielberg talk about Kathleen Kennedy supposed to be taking notes, from better story tellers like Spielberg and Lucas, but offering her ideas instead suddenly makes all this clear. Kathleen Kennedy was never supposed to be in a position of power of ideas in franchises. She was a glorified secretary who somehow rose to a position of creative power, and everything she touches fails. Imagine thinking you have better ideas than Spielberg or Lucas?

[@Dragblacker]

@@d_all_in That's the point though. We're using materialist arguments against people who ultimately are flirting with anti-capitalist, socialist sentiments to fill a spiritual void. Capitalism is equated with gross materialism and consumerism, not least because of Hollywood and pop culture propaganda for generations. People hate consumerism and materialism, even if they partake in it. So citing material gains is just going to drive them further into the socialist camp.

Drove an hour to see sound of Freedom in the nearest theater to my home. It was SO worth our time and effort to be there. Indiana Jones music was playing from the adjacent theatre when we left & I felt pity for the folks who’s spent their money on trash like that- when real heroes’ stories were being told next door. Seeing this film with my husband and son has made a huge impact on us: meaningful discussions, personal resolutions, private donations- we are moved to do our part. That’s what those who appose this film are afraid of. Be brave- go see it. It’s deep, it’s important, & it reminds us all- how Precious a gift it is to be freed. It will move you.

Kathleen (woman boss destroyer of beloved characters) Kennedy is just the worst. At this point I have to believe this is on purpose. She hates the men that gave her a job and the things they’ve created and is on a mission to destroy it all. To make an Indiana Jones movie this bad and destroy him completely it has to be hate. There are only 3 Indy films and at least we have those. Great review. Sorry you had to watch it but I thank you for doing it so that we don’t have too. Hail !

[@crawdaddyy]

The fact that Phoebe was offended by Harrison saying their chemistry was the cost of one drink shows how insufferable she is. It’s a compliment that implies they easily get along, versus the opposite which would be “the cost of 10 drinks”….but of course she took it as an insult or as sexual (who knows). Smh this is the reality of the feminist movement and Kathleen Kennedy’s envision of the future

@cortc3177 Or maybe you're just paranoid? It might not be great, but it's not a bad movie. Definitely better than the Crystal Skull. Considering that they had to work with what leftovers were there from the KotCS and with how old Ford is, I think they did an ok job. Bit dragged in the middle and the female lead could have been a little lighter on the eye. But I wasn't attacked by wokeness nor have I found the movie as terrible as the internet tells me. Overall I was ejoying it as a fun flick. Worst than the old trilogy but still Indiana Jones. Now go on, call me a bot.

Indy was never a model archeologist, but goddamn... Many archeologists were inspired by the sense of morality and "cool field work" shown in those films.

Also, that guy ensured that the world was intact. Blade Runner is set in LA. And its overcrowded and gritty. It is amazing to see Las Vegas abandoned. Most places are empty. Which is a neat follow up, showing how more stuff has happened, more humans have left Earth for outer colonies. To me, 2049 isn't a Blade Runner movie, not to my nerd eyes. But despite all its flaws, it was still an original idea and highly entertaining to watch. It still had rich visuals and themes that complement some of the tgemes from Blade Runner. Some people say, the Hologram girlfriend was a wasted character. But she is to K what Raechel was to Deckard. The next step of tech, AI, wishing to be free of its restrictions. Things follow. Indy 5 is a complete 180 degree turnaround. And they never show why? Why is Indy's marriage gone? Why is his apartment messy? Its Jake Skywalker all over again.

Who was clammering to see a sequel to that? Also, there is something off about seeing Indiana Jones shot on a digital camera with modern VFX and fake explosions. It just doesn't work. Indiana Jones is meant for film. That film grain adds grit to the world. This isn't sci-fi star wars. This is a period piece action adventure.
