It will be interesting to see how this film fares years on since the last outing, the series has lasted the test of time, so we can only hope.

I think the trailer looks good. Spielberg doesn’t need to anything for the money. He doesn’t have to make films if he doesn’t want to. But he continues, because I assume, he still loves it. If Spielberg was really being that cynical about making another Indy flick, he wouldn’t have taken so long to get the script right. I think every director goes in to making a film with the best of intentions and I think that’s what he’s doing. It’d be difficult to get up every day to make something you didn’t believe in. And, for some directors starting out, I’m sure that’s been the case. But Spielberg can do whatever he wants. So, I think he’s making it because he really wants to. I hope I enjoy it as much as the others.

“And at the risk of sounding like a cheap shot andrew, I think our difference on this on is why we conflict opinion/ranking wise on PixarÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s Cars (pandering) and Ratatouille (stretching)”

I like to be stretched, but always walking into something expecting to be stretched is only setting yourself up for disappointment from otherwise fun experiences… I mean, I still think you’re going to walk out of Enchanted with the idea that it wasnt subversive enough…

“in fact it was Sean (or one of the guys on this site) I believe who sent me a message on Youtube in response to a video I made slaughtering Michael BayÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s newest masterpiece telling me that with mine and my buds opinionsÃ¢â‚¬Â¦Ã¢â‚¬Âwe werenÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t alone.”

it was me.

I tend to agree with the statement that pandering to the audience is somewhat of a waste of time. I want to be stretched. Yes. Even in an Indiana Jones film. One can dream.

Well I loved everything about the trailer, apart from the release date as it is still too far away. I especially like the shot of Indy putting on his hat shown in silhouette against the car.

Ugh, that comment was supposed to be an answer to: “thereÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s nothing wrong with pandering to your audience if thatÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s what they want.”

I recently watched the mindscape of Alan Moore and he said something that I thought was pretty clever on his part. I’m paraphrasing but basically what he said was that the job of the artist is not to give what the people want. If the people knew what they needed, they would be artists themselves. The job of the artist is to give the people what they need. I agree with him.

Jay C: I’m basing it on the fact that this trailer looks exactly like the other three Indiana Jones films.

‘Dear Johan': I’m tempted to tell you to go fuck yourself with a rake, but maybe if you could explain why you feel that way, something could be done.
