Test screenings for Disney’s Indiana Jones 5 have been “disastrous,” reports World of Reel’s Jordan Ruimy.
Ruimy has also heard that “rumors indicate that Disney is in a panic over the screenings and that they’re worried the movie will bomb.”

Woke crap like this is why I end up gleaning better foreign movies and tv shows from amazon and other streaming areas.
Yep, I don’t watch Hollywood crap anymore. Mostly foreign stuff.
At least she is really mannish and not good looking 👍🏻 😆
Indiana Jones: Race to the Abortionist
Indiana Jones: Avoiding Trump's Grabs
Indiana Jones: Post-Menopause
Indiana Jones: Slaying Standard Oil
Indiana Jones: The Tomb of Darwin
I actually like the “nuke the fridge” scene ... that kind of crap is what I love about movies :-) ... over the top nonsense and fun. In fact, that entire sequence (the opening titles up thru atomic blast) was solid! :-) That’s just me though ... I certainly see why people disliked it.
What I didn’t like was the entire middle part of that movie ... aside from the fist fight with the Soviets while the big ants are around, it was pretty boring and predictable. That whole fencing scene was filler, that tarzan scene was downright horrible, and the whole “fall off the waterfalls” crap was a rehash of Temple of Doom.
I thought it got better once the waterfall nonsense was over, but I know that “aliens in an Indy movie” isn’t for everyone ... my dad and I got a kick out of it though ... he got me hooked on 50s sci fi and the whole last 1/3 of that movie felt like one :-).
I think Disney execs are only concerned about making this film into a two hour trailer for their TV show ... and you know it’ll be extreme-wokeness galore. I saw that chick that’s the female lead in some UK TV show called Fleabag ... I couldn’t stand her. She’s rumored to be getting Indy’s hat at the end of the theatrical shit show that will be released next year.
Look on the bright side ... Disney has basically killed Star Wars (there is no way they weren’t expecting to make billions off that IP 10 years after they bought it) and they’re going to kill Indiana Jones. They’re murdering Marvel. I get that they’re still profiting off the IP, but those margins are shrinking every year. Someone is going to be able to snatch up a lot of murdered IP at a discount in the not so distant future. I just hope it’s someone that will do *something* worth watching. I used to love Star Wars and Indy, but outside of Mandalorian (and Andor to some extent), everything they’ve released has been complete trash.
Yes, lets not create original IP... just bastardize existing IP....
Will she have a woman love interest?
Will she get pregnant by artificial means
then abort her baby at birth? So many questions.
No T&A and a butterface, great combo. Hopefully she has a shrill voice too.
I just looked up pictures of Phoebe Waller Bridge ... she’s not as ugly as that picture implies. Even at her best, though, she does NOT look the part of a lady adventurer ... just doesn’t convey the toughness implied in such a role.
LOL. We can laugh at this stuff. We have to.
Her face is not unattractive. It’s sort of normal, that’s all. She has the figure of a pre-teen boy. And when I look at her I am struck with the image of her Indy coming upon some looters robbing a tomb and giving them a stern lecture on the impact of their activities on indigenous people and the climate.
Which basically means she's as attractive (or ugly) as her personality.
a stern lecture on the impact of their activities on indigenous people and the climate.
ROFL!!! I can easily imagine Disney producing such dreck.
Maybe this will be like Wokebusters (the all female remake of Ghostbusters) where it bombed so badly they had to do something different, and we got Afterlife. (Which I really liked).
Should be titled “Womb Raider”.
The rumor I heard is first Harrison Ford is not interested in making anymore Indiana Jones movies, second Disney wants to do a TV series for Disney +.
In addition the twist is that the old Indiana and the girl go back in time and meet the young Indiana and then both of them die, and the girl picks up the hat and wipe and becomes Indiana Jones.
Two things: I didn’t come up with Nuking the Fridge.
Also: Star Wars fan fun

I looked and looked for the Man De’Lorien comic (back to the future plus star wars) but couldn’t find it.
The one on the right is a man.
‘After what Kathleen Kennedy did to “Star Trek”...’
Star Wars. It was JJ Abrams who ruined Star Trek (though he also provided an assist with ruining Star Wars as well).
Demon Disney...keep blowing your revenue stream. Yes, that’s the ticket. Spend more!
“I didn’t come up with Nuking the Fridge.”
I know ... I saw it pop up around the time the movie was released :-).
Lucas should have just made those sequels on his own ... yeah, they probably would have sucked, but they wouldn’t have been the Disney shitbombs that were released over the past decade.
