Hollywood.... they cannot leave well enough alone and there is a dearth of originality (F&F 10?! FFS). And the latest version has to be woke.

Sounds like they nuked the refrigerator and jumped the shark at the same time.

Maybe they should stop recycling a tired old libtard bag?

I’ll only watch it if Tom Cruise is in it (he’s entertaining and old school).

The author has a history of bashing the Indiana Jones films by Disney. I’m going to go see it and enjoy it.

“Mangold’s farewell to Wolverine with Logan (2017) is a thing of beauty, my favorite X-Men movie.”

Lost me right there.

Hollywood is finished. In just a few years, AI will be able to write a script and produce a new Indiana Jones movie with a 40-year old Harrison Ford in just minutes and it won't suck. You just tell the AI to produce a non-woke version.

And I wasn’t too worried that Harrison Ford is 80 years old. He’s still fit and virile, still every inch a leading man.

Whatever ...

When something undxpected and fun breaks through—like the original Raiders of the Lost Ark—Hollywood always finds a way to throttle the life out of such a golden goose.

Even if this latest version was the best of all the Indys I still wouldn’t go. Hollywood is dead to me.

“Look at this movie. It’s worthless - ten dollars from a vendor in the theatre. But I take it, I bury it in the sand for a thousand years, it becomes priceless?”

The massive irony is they take a woke poke at capitalism, yet trying to grind out one final movie from tue scraps of a huge series to try to rake in hundreds of millions of dollars....

Disney I'd dead. Absolutely no creativity, no moral center. Disney's religion is DIE, diversity, inclusivity and equity.

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal really sucked.

It’s not Hollywood, it’s Disneyhood destroying every successful franchise they get their hands on with the club of wokeness. this kind of crap they have been turning out for too many years is the reason they are laying off thousands in their ‘entertainment/groomer’ divisions and cancelling projects in Florida.
