...was a total train wreck. I just got this on dvd and have seen power ranger episodes that had more depth. In fact the title should have been, "lets make a movie that's an excuse to spawn even more crap episodes!"
This gets 8/10 for stupidity, 6/10 for gayness (lesbian porn is only 3/10 gayness), and a 10/10 for pain.

The parts so bad, i need therapy for:
The trazan part.
The Aliens
When any bad guy says anything (Hey, that guy has a 'bad guy' accent!)
The Mexican rat people (some live in walls and know kungfu. I guess they learned it from the aliens.).
Indiana's REALLY gay family fun moments (I almost shot my self).

This movie is so bad, i would need my own commentary track in the dvd, to point out all the stupid crap.

This movie was almost called:
“Indiana Jones, AND THE MEXICANS FROM SPACE”
...Gives ‘illegal aliens’ a whole new meaning.

Oh yeah, this thread contains spoilers.

HAHAHAHA!!! I wasnt wowed by it either. I laughed a lot because I saw it with some friends... but hey.. it was only a movie meant to replace the old Indi with the new. At least that's what I saw.

I rate 7/10 for stupidity
and 7/10 for gayness

Yeah it sucked pretty hard, whats with that kid being the new action guy, he was in one with jackie chan too, his face is like a smacked arse. I liked some of spielbergs recent movies like minority report and war of the worlds. I thought he was trying to be more artistic now that hes old and probably funds the entire movie with his spare change. I'm guessing he and George decided to get really smashed and write a script. george probably had a hissy fit and wanted more aliens and some extra gayness so that speilberg stopped showing him up all the time.

I'm surprised we didn't see George Lucas's version of a black person, like jar jar binks.

Hehe, I didn't mind it, though it was quite stupid in parts. A lot of parts really. It'll be interesting to watch the DVD because sometimes I find that I enjoy a movie in the cinema but then don't find it as good when I see it again. All 3 recent Starwars movies spring to mind...

"They've gone to the space between spaces" - That line made me cringe so badly, it was a total cheese fest imo. Oh also the genocide of an entire culture, untouched for over 2000years, being wiped out in half an hour, and just casually push to one side was a nice touch

"I don't know what I saw! All right?! I mean, it wa-it was dark in the theater... I mean... yeah, things got a little out of hand with the plot... the third act took too long, uh- " - Hehe, good episode, apparently the paramount bosses were not aware that the episode was gonna rip lucas and speilberg like that, needless to say, they were not too happy

Glad some knew what I was on about

The only family guy episodes, that I can remember, that involves Indiana are The courtship of Stewie's Father, and Road to Berlin, but they were more parodies, rather than ripping on them

You can't rip on the old ones, they're classics.

No one was ripping the orig ones, F.G parodied them, and S.P ripped the new one

If I remember rightly they are working on a fifth aswell, at least I think it was Indiana I was reading about when a fifth was in development

You're kidding? I'm not sure that's a good idea. If that's true it probably means there'll be a 6th one as well.

Yea, well the line is "A fifth "Indiana" is in the development stage." Might not be true, and might never come to production.

I can just picture George Lucas flexing his cheeks on the can, trying to write the new one...
Now if they just have a scene with Megan Fox naked i wouldn't care how bad the movie is.

Maybe you should write to him and suggest it.

Looks like disappointment abounds!
I was only semi-disappointed though, more than anything I was disappointed that I was disappointed, if that makes sense.
I loved the first three movies, I wanted to love the fourth too, but it just didn't find me and I'm not sure why.
At some point or another, the first three movies expect you to suspend a certain amount of belief. I felt like Crystal Skull asked me to expel belief rather than just suspend it.
