No CGI in past Indy films? Check out the horrid airship in The Last Crusade! It looks like it's straight out of the original Red Baron computer game! And then there's the "leap of faith" thingy that he walks across near the end of the movie. 80s CGI.

I don't mind cgi being used to touch up a film, but to have the entire jungle chase as cgi/blue screen job was just too much. The bs monkey and vine stuff was just waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy over the top...

I saw this movie the other day and found it to be much better than the reviews. It's in the same over the top slapstick style as the first ones and well it's the best of the lot and I'm old enough to have watched them all when new as a kid, It's a winner. I went to see it with a few other 30 something year old and we all gave it 4/5 . Well worth a watch if you are a fan of the older ones

I thought last part of the movie was great too unlike alot of people, and they left an opening to continue the series with either of the two actors. (Indy took the hat back did you notice ) So I'm thinking he's got one more movie left in him

Best 15 odd bux I spent in a long time.

Though I had to convince my cousin that Aliens arent real (to our knowledge) and that the movie was made up with some real facts too, but he kept call Indy Hans Solo.

2 things that go for what, maybe 30 total together? vs about 45 minutes worth in the new film. Look at his legs when hes having that sword fight between 2 cars, ridiculous. When you cant tell CGI is CGI, thats when itll look good.

Relax....... When you learn to stop worrying about everything looking perfect (CGI will never be as good as real life because it's not real) then it will be perfect. I didn't care and it looked fine to me. Let gooooooooo



And anyway how awesome looking is the skull, I'm impressed even now and that was days ago
