“...Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was the PERFECT way to end the TRILOGY and they should have let it rest in peace....”
I actually thought it WAS the last movie to be made, hence the play on words in the title.
I enjoyed that one a lot.
“He chose...Poorly...” Great line, and the Templar’s face when he said was priceless.
That certainly was the intention at the time (1989), and as far as I'm concerned it IS the final REAL Indiana Jones film.
A bunch of people were excited when announced they were doing a belated follow-up to the 80s classic 20 years later, whereas my gut feeling was "uh oh, this doesn't sound like a good idea..." I didn't watch the 2008 movie in theaters or on DVD because I didn't want to sully my memories of the originals, and its just wrong to have a 70 year old Indiana Jones fighting communists in the late 1950s. The whole point of the franchise is that Indy is a world war II era adventurer who goes up against NAZIs.
Now even Spielberg has admitted it was a mistake to make that movie:
You hear from dopes on the internet all the time how it was wrong to "judge" Heath Ledger as the Joker before the movie was released, so where are these same fanboys to admit they shouldn't have bought into the Indiana Jones 4 hype before the movie was released?

Khent said “No, no it’s not.”
