Well, I think I can write better dialogue... does that make me eligable to offer my opinion . Okay, so I've taken a screenwriting class... I still think that makes me more qualified than Lucas. Anyway, I just got back from seeing it tonight. Honestly, I didn't have much problem with the far-fetchedness of the action at all. Hell, it's Indy! He's always getting out of impossible situations, and I fully expected them to be more ridiculous than the previous ones. ****, even the dialogue can be cheesy, and the characters motivations make no sense. I barely give a rat's ass about all of that compared to the... Spoiler! #$!^#%$@!^@%#$#ing ALIENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I mean really! I only skimmed the thread before posting, but from what I've read no one has even mentioned this yet! Is everyone okay with that? Am I the only person here who thinks that is the most ridiculous thing ever?! I swear, the moment they mentioned Spoiler! Roswell I knew it was not going to go well from there (plot-wise). Okay, so I guess Spoiler! aliens is just about as far-fetched as pulling someone's beating heart out of their chest, but at least that was still based on Spoiler! Human legends and mythology . Christ! Spoiler! I think Lucas doesn't know how to write without using aliens, and Spielberg might need to re-visit Close Encounters |
