Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023) Movie Thread

On the plus side, looks lively and colourful if nothing else. On the other hand, there's some dodgy-looking CG there (granted, it's seven months til release).

Also, Harrison Ford doesn't look "young" by any stretch, but having seen the not-much-older Anthony Hopkins in Armageddon Time recently, Ford is looking remarkably good and sprightly for his age!

What a terrible title. Looks fun though. Probably be plenty of "I'm too old for this shit…" type comments

Not that I'm surprised but judging by the trailer that looks like way too much CGI

Thought the same. Not feeling hopeful about this one.

Terrible title.

The parade CGI looked outrageously bad, which is obviously papering over lots of where it was shot - Glasgow. The de-ageing looked good, however briefly we saw it. Shooting at night probably makes it easier to hide the fakery.

Feck it, I'm in. That's an excellent trailer, and it looks like it might - might - be legitimately fun and a touching goodbye to Indy.

CGI looks garbage, but if the Dungeon and Dragons film has shown anything, it doesn't matter if the actual story within rocks.

I personally would not have had Harrison Ford leading an Indiana Jones 5 movie. It'd be someone else and abandon the linear chronological ordering of the movies.

Surely you can make an interesting story that doesn't involve Nazi Germany as the antagonist.

I don't think that trailer was that bad, to be honest. But it didn't show me anything that we haven't already seen before with the character, so I cannot see it making much money after 4 was poorly received.
