I dont get all the Temple hate?
I loved that movie when i was a kid, and i still like it. I recently watched it with my son after many years and enjoyed it again. Great, kicka**, white knuckle action flick. [Reply]
There are some sequels I never watched just because I heard such bad things about them that I didn't want my memory of the first film ruined. Alien 3 is an example. I know that the ship crashed, and Newt and Hicks are killed, and that Ripley dies in the end. Well, fuck that. In my world, Ripley, Hicks and Newt returned to earth, got a fat settlement from the Company and lived happily ever after.
Ford and Connery riding off into the sunset at the end of Last Crusade works for me, and I don't think I need to have that screwed up. This movie just sounds lame. I really have no desire to see it.
And yes, Temple of Doom sucked balls. I didn't like it when I saw it in the theater and I still don't. That drop from the plane, down the side of the mountain, into the river just kind of set the tone for two hours of pointless dumbassery I'd just as soon have never experienced.
So I guess in my world, when it comes to Indiana Jones, there's just Raiders and Lost Crusade. [Reply]

Thanks for ruining my perfect world by disclosing what happens in Alien 3. :-) Its much easier to pretend it doesn't happen when you don't know what happens. [Reply]

Sorry dude. Just do what I did with Temple of Doom and Star Trek V - excise them from your mind, and if you can't, try to convince yourself that you have. [Reply]

As long as I haven't watched it, it hasn't happened. I just have to refrain from watching it (not difficult) and it never will! Brilliant! [Reply]

I think you're going to have to rethink this when you have seen it. I think you'll appreciate Temple of Doom a wee bit more. [Reply]
