Get out of that refrigerator, Indiana Jones.
Reminder: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull airs tonight at 8:00pm Eastern and Pacific time on USA Network.
I know, I know. It’s not even close to the greatness of the first three films. In fact, I would contend that it’s not a great film period. But if you haven’t seen it in a while, I encourage you to give it a second chance. If you free yourself from expectation, it’s an enjoyable experience, if only because we see Harrison Ford wearing his familiar fedora once again. It’s like coming home (albeit a slightly broken home that’s not the same as it used to be because George Lucas invaded it with his CG army).
I KNEW IT. Even the KGB can’t resist Indiana Jones.
Indiana Jones
You know, for an old man you ain’t bad in a fight.
Thanks.
What are you, like, 80?
When a problem comes along, you must whip it. Whip it good.
Born out of the collective imaginations of Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, and Harrison Ford, the Indiana Jones saga has thrilled movie audiences since the premiere of Raiders of the Lost Ark in 1981. By brandishing his bullwhip and flaunting his fedora, the dashing Dr. Jones became an immediate pop culture icon. This blog celebrates Indy's fantastical adventures and the people who brought him to life.
