Mwawawawa!! Comment of the day!! Kudos sir, kudos.

Considering it attracted gunpowder as well, I'd say it's not really magnetic, but it attracts whatever the writers want it to.

the sand could have simply been blown in sand storms. than the trap could have reset its self when the skull... stone... i forget which was removed from it.

The fact gold isn't magnetic and yet is still attracted to the skull like other metals is commented upon in the film, and apparently a clue to the skull's otherwordly origins.

Bill Hiers Yeah because a giant crystal alien skull is not enough of a clue that it might be from another world.

+1 just for the term "blood pancakes"

Or that a guy used magic to rip out a poor bro's heart, who then still had enough life in him sans heart to scream and, you know, be alive as he was plunged into lava.

because its possible i guess maybe a 1 in 1000000000000000 chance and is kinda acceptable for that type of movie but the fridge thing is pure bullshit

0fucksftw no its all bullshit. Enjoyable bullshit, but bullshit nonetheless. People just freak out over this one because this movie is different from the originals and actually tried to move forward. When he faces Nazis, people love it. When he faces evil Indian wizards, commies, and aliens people hate it. When he deals with christian mythology, people love it. When he deals with Indian mythology and Mayan mythology people hate it. I love all of them because I love the character of Indiana Jones. The mythology of the supernatural and paranormal are some of my favorite types of stories because I know they are all equally impossible and ridiculous, but enjoyable stories nonetheless. Doesn't matter if it's aliens or angels.

Robert Hawke That's not why I disliked it. Structurally, I didn't think it was as strong. Character-wise, I thought some of the supporting cast were irritating. The "gags" were more focused on "remeber how cool this part of that other movie was" instead of him doing something that was in character. The whole "greaser thing"... I didn't connect with it. I know my "hero" is old, but he's still my hero and I don't need someone reminding me of it. That this "greaser" is the biological legacy of Indiana Jones.... I really disliked the guy, which in turn added to my displeasure. I LOVE Mayan and Aztec mythology and history, but felt that the bulk of story just felt...clunky. Hell, at one point in the movie (the diner scene) I was thinking "Is George referencing his American Graffiti movie"? And that's not the thoughts I should be having. It's not the worst movie int he world. Harrison Ford is still the boss, but I don't think this film needed to be made. Thank god he took the hat at then end, though :)

If in doubt, claim “it was for a ritual”.

As an actual archaeologist, I deeply appreciate this response and @magicmulder's

I’d say everything up until he’s taken to the camp in the Amazon is great, but then it starts to get too alien(pun intended) for being an Indiana Jones movie.

Are u serious? Have to disagree with you. It was so un-Indy like. I was half expecting to see Biff from Back to the Future show up at the bar brawl.

100%

In a corner, Zuko and Sandy duck down after a celebratory graduation meal: "We better sit this one out Sandy, this doesn't look like a dance number." The true ending of Grease.

Best part of 1941 also (USO fight/chase scene). It seems to be a Spielberg staple, since he used it again for the opening of Temple of Doom.

+Walter Kowalski he did look pretty stupid

+Walter Kowalski yes, they did. And that's why I FUCKING LOVE cinema sins!

+Walter Kowalski i laugh my ass off xD Just that Scene without narration but "Ding" xD

That's really not a sin. That's just fashion. I mean it does look kinda silly especially going off to the side like that, but I wouldn't say it looks flat out ridiculous. It's just one of those "love it or hate it" things and most still probably wouldn't wear it themselves.

+Walter Kowalski got no problem with that. shia is a reason not to watch somethng. not sure if it is him. but this indie and the transformers movies are simply bad

...AND during the movie.

But you accepted the ark, the magic stones and the holy grail just like that?

@@Gaia_Seraphinaat least the ark, the temple and the grail are all magical things and therefore fit well with each other. Indiana Jones is not science fiction, it’s fantasy adventure. Every Indiana Jones movie, book, show and video game released before Crystal Skull followed a basic connective tissue of magical items or something based on a deity. The aliens in Crystal Skull directly go against that and it just doesn’t fit. While it’s arguably more plausible for aliens to exist that any of the other things, it just doesn’t fit with Indiana Jones, and I don’t care if it was George Lucas’ and Spielberg’s idea, it just doesn’t fit

@@icemav5740 Sci-fi and fantasy belong to the same genre of fiction. Both are made-up. It doesn't matter when it was invented or what fictional elements it contains. Only cuz Indiana Jones had ancient religious fiction in it, doesn't mean that they cannot use more current fiction for those kind of movies. Honestly I think that franchise was too much fixated on abrahamitic religions and nazis ( kinda absurd, since Hitler was an atheist and openly condemned supersticious beliefs, including those of his first henchman Himmler, who was the one interested in ancient beliefs ). "The temple of Doom" gave a small veriety, albeit a short one.

@@heartless604 Based on the pfp of "op", he doesn't seem to be very smart.

Where?

i guess simmular u would have to do in most adventure movies when u look at all the traps lol

FridayTeardrop yeah I just hadn't thought about it before.

FridayTeardrop in other cases it makes sense, e.g. if someone wants to keep an artifact hidden or something like that. The stupid thing here is that there is really no motivation to build all that crap around the alien bodies.

Stefan Simon i dont know if it would make sence in other cases. cause when u build stuff like that there would be probably masses of ppl knowing already during the construction how to get around the traps and where to find the tresure or artefact. also when grave robbers or archeologists find out about a place but cant get thru the mainentrance or wall cause its solid rock then they just dig a hole or tunnel somewhere else to get to it what would at least make some traps rather useless. that digging of a new hole is also rather easy cause most of them are not chased by 100 000 natives but can do their work in peace.

FridayTeardrop You're missing my point. I'm not sayin that planting traps etc. is smart. But it has some motivation e.g. if a tribe wants to protect some artifact or another, they would plant traps around it. That reasoning is used in other treasure hunt movies and it makes sense in many cases. But what is the motivation behind building that whole temple with the sand/column entrance, the keyhole (for which you need the skull it's supposed to keep out to open it)... the whole construction and reasoning behind taking the skull in the first place is never explained in the movie and makes no sense.

They'd just shoot each other for a few hours then give up lol

I WANNA HEAR "MY LEG!!!" FROM SPONGEBOB IN A MOVIE AT LEAST ONCE

There are several of these shitty overused samples that aren’t funny but just a cheap go-to and a big “f*** you” to any suspension of disbelief one had before. Worst one I ever caught was the Diddy laugh in LoTR. That made me so freakin pissed off… Here are some more ruining your movies: - telephone ring with flutter - woman police dispatch voice - red tailed hawk - Howie scream - air plane three wheel screech - icy wind - Doppler truck horn - car chase tyre squeak - cat screech - church owl - small dog in pain bark - BBC crowd gasp I could go on, but it’s enough for now, the suspense is killing me.

@@JAMESk3gs The thing with the scream is, it is universally understood in every language, because in every language it is the same scream. You are unable to do that with anything else that is not just noises. With "MY LEG" you would have a big problem in every country does not have English in cinema / TV and does their own dubs, which includes most of Europe and Asia.

Oh I guess that makes the whole movie terrible then! HURR DURR 😒

This was Steven Spielberg...

Just like in Raiders right. If you take out Indi the Nazi's go to Mary where they get the staff head piece, they find the map room, retrieve the ark, take it to the island cause Beluc still wants to open it and they all die with the ark in a new resting spot. In Crystal Skull if you take out Indi then their is no Mutt and no one for Mary send Oxly's riddle or her letter of help to cause to our knowledge the only person who could solve Oxly's riddle that Marry knows is Oxly and hes crazy at this point. ya you could say that someone in the camp could figure it out but if they of at that point they would of. With out the riddle being solved, no one finds the grave sit or the temple. everything that happens in Crystal Skull happens because Indi is there. While everything that happens in raiders would have happened regardless of Indi. and the whole thing out aliens not fitting into an Indiana Jones movie, in my opinion, dumb considering that there are archaeologists who believe that it is possible that some form of extra terrestrials helped build primitive cultures like ones in the movie. And if that were the case then in the Indiana Jones universe Indi would be the one to discover it. that is not to say that Scifi is not out of norm for an Indiana Jones movie, cause it is, but to say it does not fit in shows a lack of knowledge for Indi's profession.

Also according to Amy Farrah Fowler in the big bang theory, Indiana Jones is unnecessary to the plot in raiders of the lost ark.

Just like the Raiders of the Lost Ark AND The Last Crusade.

Trey Lehman In Raider he was the one that found the Arc , the Nazis were looking in the wrong spot

Also not gunpowder or shotgun shell pellets. Nothing iron based in either. That really bugged me.

Everything is attracted to a magnet if the field is strong enough, even frogs... But, if the skull was that strong of a magnet Indiana would have been stuck to it too.

+Kevin Mccoy the shotgun bullets does, because it's a mixture of Cu and Au so, some parts of the bullet does, and some not

How would a living being be stuck to a magnet?

I agree, but it would be funny to spend billions of dollars building the worlds most powerful magnet just to be able to say "Ladies and gentlemen, we did it! We can now lift a small frog several inches into the air- of course we had to defund the C.D.C., and now everyone is dead from ebola, but you have to admit it was worth it!".

Is this in the 50's?

@@thatonewaspatyourpicnic7978 late 50s i believe.

Well, it was kinda damaged in the fall.

It takes place in 1957. 19 years after Last Crusade.

@Vent Shark Ah. Okay. Thanks.

+BcallingDB uhh, dude do u have any idea what time period this movie took place in? ET was in 1990s, this movie took place earlier than that, for all we know this is ETs father. Sin for BcallingDB

Cave Johnson Or is it ET's mother?

BcallingDB the alien does look badass like a woman

lol and +1 sin for mom naming her kid mutt

E.T is also in the star wars universe. So is Indie it too amd it is all the FORCE. I can t wait for the next movie. Then we saw what master Yoda make before he was a master. He killed nazis and sovjets with Indie and together they build the millennium falcon and Yoda told Indie he is not Indie. He is Han Solo and with the might of the force he bring the hair on Indies ass to life and called it Chewbacca

But the movie says that it isn't "magnetic" it's extraterrestrial

I know this is a fact but the movie had gold being magnetically pulled into the suit when they first find the skull ... which is the point he made when he said the gold "lost its interest in being magnetic"

Based on the comic book, the u boat sailed on diesel power and never actually underwater. Indy just cling to the periscope the whole journey

@@gefeize That's kind of what I always suspected. Wasn't there a re-release of Raiders a few years ago with 20 extra seconds of footage that supposedly explained this? If not, I guess I didn't miss much. Thank You for your reply. 🍺👍😉

Theres a deleted scene with him clinging to the periscope thing.

There was a deleted scene, where he almost froze to death

U boats sailed on the surface most of the time, under desiel power. They could make reasonable time that way. Underwater they go very slowly and for short distances only. It's the nuclear subs that can and do stay down 90 days at a time, until they run out of food.

I know a guy who is a lookalike and act a like to this buffoon.

Also for not showing the scene with Karen Allen that started the possibility of this absurd spawn.

Agreed.

Shia gets way too much shit. Yh, he's eccentric but so are dozens of actors, plus Shia can actually act.

Slemke 98 said no one ever

Stormtroopers fail to shoot Han Solo, who happens to be Harrison Ford.

@@commanderiosifstalin4938 Maybe everyone just sucks at shooting Harrison Ford.

stormtroopers in ep4 aimed bad intentionally, so the imperial troops could track the mill.falcon back to the rebell's base.

Stormtroopers boarded succesful Tantive IV in A New Hope. Specialized Stormtroopers (Snowtroopers) conquered succesful the rebellion hideout on Hoth and killed also lot of rebellion soldiers in The Empire Strikes Back. And then comes The Last Jedi, were Stormtrooper becomes those douchebags who losed against Teddies by a mile and after this, on any media Stormtroopers becomes worse and worse, far away from a thread. Only Roque One did some of this things right, where Stormtroopers killed a lot of rebellion soldiers.

@@Darkclaw86 i was plainly talking about the plot of ep4, when han, luke & co tried to escape the death star.

I guess it was to see the effects of the blast on food? I mean, the fridge survived, maybe they knew it would, and thus wanted to know if the food would. Or writers wanted some last second comedy of indie having to remove said food.

Nothing survives in a fridge from a nuclear blast, no scientist would expect such a result

Yeah. But then you realize Indiana survived it, so obviously, in this world, physics can go fuck itself.

That's pretty much producer's attitude these days.

Another- do the natives in the temple who suddenly wake up when indy and crew pass them really spend all day everyday for 400 years hiding in those small little stone cavities just waiting for someone to pass through?

Both shoot at Harrison Ford and both miss constantly, therefore both are the same entity constituted in different cinematic universes.

+Ryl0_or or, Harrison Ford just has an anto-bullet forcefield.

If I was put to death by firing squad and they gave me last wish I would wish for Stormtrooper or Indiana Jones bad guy to execute it xD

I always like when movie logos are used in creative ways like that. Wasn’t a fan of the actual gophers though.

If I recall correctly they did a similar Paramount logo/mountain fade in the first Indy movie too

The knowledge of building stuff and agriculture. Have you even seen the movie?

@@yiraia7863 Where was that knowledge stored? Did you think any minute during the movie?

@@RadioactiveSand those aliens were that knowledge.

That Aliens are real.. lol.

Actually early grenades used blank powder in the u.s . Same power used in the 30-06 blanks

Yeah and they establish in the movie that the crystal skull magnetizes metals that aren't magnetic in nature like in the scene with Indy and Mutt when Mutt tells that gold isn't magnetic.

@@yiraia7863 Gunpowder isn't made of metal. Modern multi-base firearms propellant is mostly composed of nitrocellulose with a secondary component of diethylene glycol dinitrate. Neither of those contains a metal element of *any* sort. A mass of both compounds mixed will include carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen, but no metal. Such smokeless propellants *might* include a very very small percentage (by mass) of metallic additives, but I can't confirm that specifically. Bottom line, there is nothing that should suggest that smokeless powder--or gunpowder of any kind--would be associated with magnetism in any way at all.

A sin back at you. If you’re not native to a region that you are visiting or moving into that makes you an alien to that region. Hence why we call people hopping country borders without citizenship “illegal aliens”

You got it mixed up George wanted aliens Steven didn't. The whole alien thing was George's idea from the beginning but Steven said no because he made several alien movies before but George kinda forced Steven into going with this idea

To be fair, he doesn’t only call them ‘aliens’. At 12:30 he says ‘interstellar being’. Also, they are shown to only be ‘interstellar’, not ‘interdimensional’, which is different, so... Ding! on you?

@@Dark_Mishra wasn’t there an inter dimensional portal toward the end? That would make them inter dimensional beings.

wat

The thing about Sci-fi/Fantasy movies is that they have to follow an internal logic and most of the Indiana Jones movies do, this one however was written by George Lucas and Spielberg didn't even want to make it.

Anakin Skywalker You were the chosen one!

John Smith Internal logic? Christian artefacts with magical powers and an Indian tribe with magical powers?

13dirty666 You clearly don't understand what internal logic is, so I'll explain it to you. A story will set rules such has certain things being able to do certain things, skull being magnetic then stopping, when we view these movies we accept the rules the movie sets forth, but when the movie breaks its own laws the story starts to crumble in on itself as the internal logic fails.

The same can be said for every action movie henchmen. It's not Jones exclusive.

Christopher Cardarelli well… Han Solo and Indiana Jones are played by Ford

But the troopers hit Leia one time, but, that could have been an accident

@@johnmccartney62 She wasn't Harrison Ford. They aren't allowed to hit Harrison Ford.

Hello sweety.

Lol wtf

Its all wibbly wobbly to me. Blink, and you might miss it. WHO else doesnt get this. I would tell you what it means but... spoilers.

Sideswipe 84 that was amazing lol

I was in the Society for Creative Anachronism. We confuse future archaeologists. I mean, we hope.

We saw this in theater but we were hoping that Indiana Jones would catch a ride on that spaceship, which would go on to become the Millennium Falcon, and for some reason change his name to Han Solo and it ends up that Indiana Jones and Han Solo are the same person.

Yeah it wasn't bad

me too, but the alien scared the f*ck out of me

it was a bit of a let down and not nowhere near as good as the originals, but it was still decently entertaining

I never got the hate for the aliens. It's not like the other 3 movies were grounded in reality.

if they had not had shia leboeuf i would have accepted the rest

crankysaint thats some mighty fine nitpicking there, son. :)

I don't think they invented a fridge that can survive a nuclear blast in 1957 either

I noticed that too. Lol. The least they could’ve done is taken more recent photos of them both. The actors may have refused to be in the movie, but like he said, I’m sure they both still got paid a lot for the use of their likenesses. Heck, they’re both probably still living off royalties from the Last Crusade.

But is that so different? Religion is a form of mythology. Most religious stories are legends, not history. Aliens are a more recent form of mythology, but has the same quality of religion as something that some people believe in on faith and others think is fake, but which no one can prove. I think the problem is in actually seeing the aliens. The other movies don't demystify religion completely by, say, having Jesus show up and talk to Indy. The aliens here should've remained unseen, viewed in shadow at most, and disappeared without being fully revealed.

Oh boy do i have some news for you

probaly

yes he did

+Rachel Lee It's been established that the creators of this movie don't know how magnets work, though, so anything that didn't contain iron shouldn't have been pulled by the magnet.

+Rachel Lee Which Mutt pointed out in the movie, along with the fact that the skull makes it behave that way anyway.

+Kupo They also have no idea about the materials that ammo are made of. Brass is used for shells , bullets are usually of BALL type ( just lead covered with a copper alloy) and gunpowder contains no iron at all.

+Kupo pretty sure Iron ain't the only magnetic substance

The_Milkman_Returns I'm aware. Iron just happens to be the element that's used most for magnets, and would make more sense to find in a warehouse than something like samarium-cobalt. Feel free to get specific if you want.

Wait, wasn't that actor... didn't he use to be famous?

I love the internet... :)

They problem this movie has at its core..not its surface problems..its core problem is its timing this plot should have been the second or thid indy movie..i imagine if this movie came out years age like like after the first one no one would hate it. Cuz i mean i dont think its too far fetched for aliens to be in an indy movie...nazis...evil spirits..evil nazi spirits...racist stereotypical indigenous tribal stereotypes..but i draw the line at aliens? Whatever. This movie had potential 20 years ago but in this day and age it failed hard

i share the exact same view. I mean the movie was fine right up to the aliens. I too liked Indy having a son and reuniting with marion, i thought it was cute. But they aliens well and truly killed a film which otherwise would've been good, although arguably not as good as the original triology of the 80s, but thats hard to beat because of a younger ford and practical effects

Why am I the only one okay with aliens? Have you people never heard of the crystal skull alien theory before?

SOMEBODY NOTICED!!

and the fact that he isn't a cannibal

@Luis Elías Díaz No it doesnt dude, in the movie it literally says how the brother that left the cave lived for an extended period and told his story to a Franciscan Friar and the time difference between that and the crusades is hella long. The grail cannot leave the cave, you have to keep drinking from it to live forever. BUT you still gain life after drinking from it.

Yeah, I just watched this movie for the first time so I could educate myself in the previous "Indiana Jones" films before I saw "Dial of Destiny" and though I heard that this is the worst Indiana Jones film of all time, I actually liked it. Because it didn't follow the religious format of the other films, it wasn't predictable and I had no idea what was going to happen next. But the mannequins at the nuclear test site are super creepy.

@@broadwaybrook2319 agree with everything you said

Shia gets shit for his real life antics, and probably for his transformers schtick, but he can absolutely be a good actor. He was really good in this movie. The reason he was in it was because he was a big star at the time
