Is Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull The Zwan Of Movies?

Bootleg new Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull trailer is up (for now), guys:

Am I the only one not boner-caliber excited about this movie? Don't get me wrong, obviously I will see it. But I can't help feeling that it's just a 140 minute, big budget reminder of how I'm at a different place in my life. You guys, I love feeling like a kid as much as the next urban dwelling non-committal prolonged adolescent man child, but I also sleep in a big boy's bed now, and enjoy drinking alcohol. I know that this is making me sound like an old man, and the Comment Creeps are going to give me a hard time about being so jaded and cynical that I can't even enjoy a summer funtimes popcorn movie, but maybe some of us feel that it's just as jaded and cynical that youthful nostalgia is being shoved down everyone's throats so that Steven Spielberg and George Lucas can add another diamond pier to their solid gold shipyards (Because they have so many emerald boats. Because they're retardedly rich.)

Your turn, Comment Creeps.

Actually, I'm with you. Didn't need this fourth movie, much like Star Wars didn't need a second trilogy, much like we don't need more Shia LaBoeuf (starting in a second summer blockbuster designed to dredge up nostalgic man-boy feelings). They call that string theory, right?

is there even a difference between Blanchett's Spalko impression & Dylan impression? Besides a disdain for jews, what is there?

Harrison Ford seems seems as if he's just phoning it in the whole time. Like he had some sort of poker game with Lucas and Spielberg and they got him all hopped up on Boone's Farm and bet him that if he lost the game, he had to be in their sequel.

this is best comparison since some other time i can't remember when. and yes, it is totally the zwan. except it's more raconteurs. cos they like this one, the clothes look right and the music is the same, something no gel.
