Indiana Jones

and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. May. 22.

!!!!

I admit, I'm excited.

and a bonus? maybe now they will start re-selling the original ones, individually, and I can buy Nos. 1 and 3, without the scary and abysmal No. 2.

SD--if it helps any--while I am watching Indy being fantastically sexy, I'm thinking of you.

That's nice, I'll just be enjoying all the nice young ladies in his college class in the first movie.

yeah, they're playing all his movies. Right now, Air Force One, The Hunt for Red October, and Witness are playing simultaneously.

They've been running them on the BBC here too.
I'm so going to the cinema on May 22!

I took the day off work when the last one came out, just so I could come down to London and watch it on a really big screen, with air conditioning! How nice that that applies to my local cinema now.

BTW I love Temple if Doom!
I didn't when it first came out. I was so grossed out by the time it got to the banquet that I left the cinema and snuck into the screen next dorr where my sister and younger brother were watching Lady and the Tramp. (I'd made it as far as chilled monkey brains and then thought I was going to pass out).

Being older and less sensitive I can see the humour in it now.

People here are kinda comparing Sex & the City movie with Indiana Jones. Like it's a battle of the sexes or something. I am on the wrong side as usual - I'll counting down to Indy and have no interest whatsoever in Sex & the City. Watched about 3 episodes over 5 years on TV and it just never interested me.

However, have just seen SJP on Jonathan Ross and she was totally charming. Funny (in an actress way) intelligent, appreciative and totally got M Ross, in a way some Americans don't. I'm still not interested in the film, but was pleased to have my prejudices contradicted.

and Lo! indeed - watching the Last Crusade now!
Indy is fighting on a tank. And Dr Jones Snr is being Sean Connery.

what's funny is the Target checkout girl (about 18 y.o.) commented, in a mystified tone of voice, "oh, everybody is buying those movies," like she had never heard of them. I guess she hadn't, because I said, "it's because the next one is coming out next weekend. Haven't you seen them?" "No."

I thought everyone has seen those movies. Guess not. Maybe she grew up in a cave or something.

Did she lick your packages of sealed meat?
If yes I suspect she is a cave girl.
If not, call Child Services, she was obviously locked in a basement.

Indy is now being a Penitent Man.

Only the penitent man shall pass!!

I used to say this to my friends before taking a swipe at their head.

"He chose... poorly" is also used in my house to this day. Yes, I watched Last Crusade way, way, way too many times.
