All the franchises I grew up with, a Generation Xer here, have been destroyed by Wokism. The only thing I can do is refuse to watch.

A fifth Indiana Jones movie, why? Because that fourth one was so good? Ugh. They just need to stop. We are not clamoring for more.

It sounds like it’s going to be a real snoozer.

Same here. I thank them for not tempting me to give them my time or my money.

I have the first 4 in a Blu-ray set. Never cared much for #s 2 and 4, and am not interested in # 5. All new developments in movie franchises are woke BS.

Not surprised - the quality of Hollywood movies has been in decline for decades. Their viewing market has expectations that Hollywood can't meet and so don't bother to try.

Recycling and rebranding for less discerning audiences has been all they have left for quite some time now.

Can't not wait to not watch . . . Who the hell is Phoebe, you might ask?

Can't wait to see her put in a pit with snakes!

Its a zombie franchise at this point. I didn’t watch “Fleabag” but a Brit actress doesn’t automatically equate to woke hell. Woke hell is humorless angry horrors pooping all over the audience with Hollywood going full on S&M on an audience that just wants a nice and conventional 90 minutes of escapeism.

Frankly, I’ve given up on Hollywood even as it seems to be scrambling to expand with “entertainment news” being constantly sprung on any unwary person who turns on the tv. In order to be a “celebrity” you should do something worth celebrating.

After reading the comments, it doesn’t appear that most here are going to spend their hard earned money on this new movie. How is Disney and Lucas going to continue their JIHAD on America and the American Way of Life if we peasants don’t give them our money??

Just remember, whenever you spend your money on the Entertainment Industry, a portion will be used to DESTROY YOUR WAY OF LIFE!!

Disney/Lucas films must have a lot of money they are willing to waste on a box office bomb. . . . .

Its really evidence that they are so uncreative, and their new or original product so unpopular, that all they can do is recycle old stories.
