It would've been fun if, instead of the paramount logo turning into a mountain, we would've gotten the disney castle turning into the nazi castle. Not sure why Disney didn't do that...
What saved Hitler from the bomb in Project Valkyrie was someone moving it a couple of feet away from where it originally was placed. Also the bomb was under a big heavy wooden table so the table took the brunt of the blast.
While it would have been too late to do this now, here's an idea. They should have combined the search for a holy relic with one of the last great conquests of the heroic age of exploration. In other words, if the final Indiana Jones movie had taken place in the 50s, they could have had him retrieving or finally hiding a relic on Mount Everest before passing away. The Asylum knockoff could have set it on the moon. Also we need Mutt 'n Nam.
Brendan Frasier's Journey to the Centre of the earth should have been an Indy Movie if they did it in the 90s they could have even used the dinosaurs from the Lost World.
The difference between the CGI Chase Scenes in Indiana Jones & the practical Chase Scenes in Mission Impossible are night and day. More studios should be doing these things practical.
The de-aging shit has to stop. It never looks good. And when you put deceased people up there it’s several steps past distasteful and disrespectful. These actors are dead, Disney. You don’t have the right to put a uncanny valley peter Cushing on screen. At least you shouldn’t. I’m practically to the point of not watching anything past 1987, that’s how sick I am of cgi. Movies suck now.
The thing that gets me is that Helena would have been a villain in the other Indiana Jones movies. I mean, how many times did Indy say “that belongs in a museum” in The Last Crusade? Yet here comes Helena, trying to steal Indy’s half of the Dial so she can sell it and make a quick buck. They really tried to replace Indy with a character that doesn’t have his charisma or morals, and is basically his polar opposite…
@@HackTheMovies Well, he was hired by Lao Che specifically to find those remains. Sure, that isn’t exactly noble of him, but we also don’t know if those diamonds had some historical value themselves or were just regular diamonds. Either way, he was fulfilling a deal he made with Lao Che prior to the start of Temple Of Doom. But yeah, it is a bit of a plothole to show Indy trading the remains of an emperor to a crime boss, then in the next movie say that he had been adamant about preserving historical artifacts since he was a teenager.
@HackTheMovies That's true, but by the end of the movie he brings the Sankara Stone back to the village, signifying a change of heart. It's also worth pointing out that TOD is actually the first movie chronologically.
I remember when they just announced Indiana Jones 5 saying that THERE WAS NO NEED FOR A 5TH INDY MOVIE! After watching this out of morbid curiosity, I'm glad to say that I right in the first place. Worst Indiana Jones movie. Least I can consider the Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull a guilty pleasure & more enjoyable than this movie.
When I saw the movie in a packed theater it was so silent even the crickets shut up. Not one laugh, not one audible comment. Not even cell phones being turned on. Everyone was as bored and zoned out as I was from this utter piece of garbage of a film.
Gotta disagree with you on the brief James Bond comment at the beginning. Frankly, I found Bond’s reasoning perfectly logical; if I managed to hook up with Lea Seydoux once, and then knew I would never be able to hook up with her again, I also wouldn’t want to live anymore lol. …but srsly, that last stairway scene where Bond is fucking mowing dudes down was sick af.
4:42 “not that bad”?!? He must get his crack at a good price. It should be tried for crimes against humanity. Even Shia had enough sense to not star in it. Let that sink in.
As James Cameron said in that South Park episode about the bar being lowered, "How do you explain all the fat people on mobility scooters?! How do you explain... Honey Boo Boo?" Yes. Modern day expectations are really that low.
I'm going to watch this, and then watch Young Indiana Jones Chapter 18 Treasure of the Peacock's Eye on vhs and know that no matter how bad it might be. It will almost certainly be better than Chapter 27 The Dial of Destiny.
i saw the Dial of Destiny movie a week ago and I liked it. But the end of the ended at an odd cliffhanger where you dont know if Helena time traveled to help clear Indy's name or not
I'm hoping it's at least better than crystal skull. But i don't think that this should've been made. It would've been far better if they just continued the storyline of Indy with a younger actor, like Chris Pratt or the guy from Solo and Cocaine Bear. Harrison Ford is too old.
Dial is a bad movie, it's sad that some people have no standards and will eat whatever s@@t Hollywood puts in front of them. The movie is boring and too long.
The ending could have been better. Indy could have used the Dial to go back and see his son Mutt, before he went to Vietnam to fight for his country. Before leaving, Indy gives his son a hug and tells Mutt that he loves him very much, knowing that Mutt will die as a hero, helping evacuate a Vitnamese village from the VC.
He’s not really dead unless we see a gravesite bc alot of soldiers went mis in vietnam. It’s entirely possible that he went awol and went on Indy type adventures. In fact, he could become the new Indy that way if Disney wants to revive the franchise.
The Dial of Destiny was just as bad (if not worse) than Ghostbusters Afterlife. Most of it was painfully slow, it recycled things from previous movies, and there was too much of a dependency on nostalgia to try to hold your interest. It's a sad ending to a once fantastic franchise.
@@trekadam30 He wanted to do it and that's rare for him haha. Besides I had no problem with him as a character in it. I liked the "he's the puzzle solver rather than the muscle this time around" for me its Raiders, Crusade, Temple of doom, dial, crystal skull
The opening felt like a classic Indiana Jones film, but the rest of it simply didn't work. It should have just been the original three, but I wonder what it might have been like if they kept making them and recasting Indy like James Bond...
Indiana Jones can still exist. Just not as the main protagonist. As a professor, they should have and still might be able, to let him play that role. My idea for a fun IJ movie going forward. His teaching students inspires a non-related person to go on crazy adventures. Meanwhile to OG Indiana Jones, keeps going to him and his reply is, yep been there and done that. 1st act, new character being inspired, 2nd act huge failure, then seeks advise from IJ, 3rd act success. Lay in all the normal tropes we expect out of an IJ movie. There ya go. The IP continues in a way that doesn't demand Harrison Ford to be the main focus.
My first thought when they took off his hood and he turned his head was "wow this looks fake". It looked about as good as a PS4 game. Decent sure, but for a feature film it was embarrassing. Beyond that I don't like the new characters that dominated the movie. They have Indy tied up inside a plane while these two other characters chase after him. If Indy can't be the one rescuing someone, just don't make the movie. And then of course they had to throw in "A British Tar" because we have to redo everything that was in the old movies for fan service. Also after everything Indiana Jones has done for the world, he asks to die in history. Seemed fitting. Oh wait, lets have this random new girl disrespect his wished and punch his lights out. Hate that character and I hate this movie.
They had to bring in new characters because Indiana Jones is a dinosaur now. Indy can't be old. This type of hero and action star doesn't work with an elderly man. The movie shouldn't have been made.
@@HackTheMovies Disney should have taken the money and invested it into their animation department and made a traditional fairy-tale feature and get back to what actual Disney fans liked about the company in the first place. And then sell all these LucasFilm properties that they have no business touching. And also stop with all the remakes and make new animated movies like they did with Frozen.
The Dial of Destiny was all bad. The opening sequence on the train and the last half hour were great. Mads Mikkelsen is always great as a villain, and Harrison Ford was fantastic.
First off, Tony looks like the sleazy boss from Plumbers Don't Wear Ties. Second, to answer Tony's question from another review as to why people all of a sudden hate Katleen Kennedy even though she was involved with classic films like OG Star Wars, Spielberg stated that Katleen was nothing more than a assistant and not a very good one. Katleen would even interrupt conversations between Spielberg and Lucas by inputting stupid ideas like if the protagonist gets the dog instead of the girl.
What they should do with Indy is to re-cast with a younger actor and reboot the series in 10-15 years. And have it maybe take place in the 20's or 30's. Indy(I think)works best in that time period.
I saw it at the drive-in and because of the so-so image quality I could not really see the flaws of the CGI so I guess it helped the experience. Ok movie 6/10
I've said this before in discussions about elderly reboots, they just need to switch focus a little bit, if Indiana was still a badass, but cognisant of his physical body failing because he's ancient, kind of like what Clint Eastwood did in Gran Torino but less of him beating people up, and more using his head. Yes, it wouldn't be a classic Indiana Jones movie like the good ones, but it might actually be a good movie on its own. Trying to shoehorn a geriatric actor into a movie with lots of excitement and action but having to add a younger actor to pick up the slack because the primary is fucking old backfires almost always. Edit: They also always have these old people down in the dumps for whatever stupid reason, why can't they be successful, do the writers really hate boomers so much that they want them to be miserable.
The fifth movie has no rewatchability for me. It has no depth and everything can be gleaned from one viewing. It was at times interesting, but mostly just a standard adventure with little new to offer.
Agreed on the whole it’s the writing not the director I think it got messed up behind the scenes and yeah the pace of the movie just felt so all over the place I did slightly enjoy this movie I’m just glad I got to see him again in the outfit also Ford v Ferrari is great
What I like about this movie-is it feels like the older movies from the Raiders to Crusade. It kind of feels like the can’t work a trilogy out of Indy like Star Wars did. So they just did the Rise of Skywalker story with this one😂 What I don’t like- Harrison Ford is way too old. He’s so slow the beginning throws me off with his cgi face and then his voice is as of now; when he talks. As much as I don’t care for Crystal Skull- he was 15 years younger. So he moved a little quicker but not by much. Side Note: “Tony mentions how Indy find out how Jesus and Aliens are real within 2 movies😂😂😂 pretty funny
They call it Indy 5 because that’s what it is out of 10. The film is a 5/10. Just very average. The McGuffin isn’t fun and is actually retarded. There’s no logic begin how it works at all. It detects rifts in time? But nobody in 2,000 years with modern tech was able to detect them by any other means? Why do the Nazis think that rift would take them to 1939? And why would it conveniently be that one rift right near them at the exact moment they retrieved the dial? Why did the portal open to 213?
Should have just done Last Crusade again but Indiana Jones as old Indiana Jones and Mutt/Short Round as young Indiana Jones. Have them going after the Spear Of Destiny. Done. I'll take my payment by cheque please
They really should have recast Indy, the movie bombed because nobody was excited to see an 80 year old Indy. Harrison Ford is barely in it anyways because he can barely do anything in front of the camera, lmao.
I just watched this on disney plus, thought it was fun and i enjoyed every single one. Went back to this to see what yall thought at the time... i dont get the hate...this kind of hate should directed at the jurasic world series lol. They are all fun and enjoyable. I loved them going back in time with nazis. It was interesting
It would've been fun if, instead of the paramount logo turning into a mountain, we would've gotten the disney castle turning into the nazi castle. Not sure why Disney didn't do that...
What saved Hitler from the bomb in Project Valkyrie was someone moving it a couple of feet away from where it originally was placed. Also the bomb was under a big heavy wooden table so the table took the brunt of the blast.
If I remember right, the concrete bunker would have like amplified the blast. Idk I need to rewatch that movie.

General consensus that I've gotten so far is that it's "okay." The fact that Shia is just dead is kind of amusing tho.

Best part I've heard
I like to think Mutt was hanging around with Elias and Barnes . Then him and Richard Pryor get captured and become POW’s
While it would have been too late to do this now, here's an idea. They should have combined the search for a holy relic with one of the last great conquests of the heroic age of exploration.
