Thanks guys...guess I will just wait for it to be another way to pass the time on a flight.

High altitude plus a couple of drinks will make it Oscar-worthy.  ;D
I've seen some movies on flights thinking "hey, that wasn't bad at all", then watching them at home revealed that they were indeed garbage.

I find it amusing that the worst of the 4 movies is going to make the most Box Office Money.

The 5 day total worldwide is over 300 million  ???

True, but look how much they charge for a movie now compared to when Raiders came out 27 years ago.

True

The average ticket price in 1981 was $2.78 and in 2007 it was $6.88 according to Boxofficemojo.com

But in 1981 the movie cost 18 million to make and IJ4 cost 185 Million. Now those numbers don't work out for inflation.
I personally like the non CGI look of Raiders versus IJ4. Apparently Lucas, Spielberg and Ford do not start seeing money till the movie hits 400 million.

In order to get the movie made they sacrificed much of there salary up front.

6.88?  Thats a bargain!  havent seen those prices around these parts since the 90's.  More like 9.50 a movie here.

Kickin myself in the azz for contributing $20 that POS movie 3 weeks ago!!    [bang]

The family wanted to see it though and me being the good host I am..

I gave in..knowing I would regret it!!  [roll] 

The reason I bring this up is because I'm watching the original IJ movie right now.  The first 15 minutes of it beats everything Crystal Skull had to offer! 

Hollywood ruins everything!  >:(

Golden opportunity missed.

Want to make a new movie. Fine. Just cast someone else. keep it in the 40s. The James Bond movies are generally bad,.. but they have NO problems changing 'Bonds' every couple of movies.

Why not do the same for Indiana Jones.

Threadjack! Who should the new/old Indy be?
