In Retrospect, Did We Need a Fourth Indiana Jones Movie?

Oct 13, 2008 - Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull will be released on DVD this week and I'm curious whether, with a little distance, you're feeling warmer or colder to it, or totally the same. There was a lot of excitement when it was first released over the Summer, but now that some time has passed, do you feel differently?

Do You Think Shia Should Take More Non-Action Roles?

Sep 25, 2008 - As Eagle Eye approaches, I got to thinking that the only thing young Shia LaBeouf has been up to since hitting the big time has been action movies.

Box Office: Indiana Whips the Competition

May 27, 2008 - Traditionally, Memorial Day weekend is very kind to Summer blockbusters, and this year was no exception for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. According to Variety, the return of the Steven Spielberg franchise was his biggest movie opening ever, hauling in an estimated $126 million over the four-day holiday. While these results are a career high for Spielberg, the film itself did not break any box office records related to this holiday weekend or any other long weekend openings. - 3 Comments
