    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Okay, that had me spray beer over the tablecloth and laugh so hard that Karla and Luke were about to call an ambulance…

          The Critical Drinker does the review...

          "Indiana Jones and the Dialup Internet of Depravity..."

          "It shames not only the franchise, not only the genre, but the entire concept of film making."

          "Made by a studio which is the equivalent of a junkie rifling through the trash."

              I do not even want to watch any reviews of the movie until I find out if the reported ending from the supposed test screenings was true.

                If they did the whole thing where past Indy died, thereby erasing his history and replaced him with the girl then I am done. I don’t even want to watch reviews.

                  I'd say that guy didn't like it. A bit of overkill on his part, I think.

                    I’m full up for a lifetime on big budget scripted action sequences. No more needed or wanted in any movie I ever watch again.

                      All same. Overly long and devoid of plot.

                          Let's face it, men are no darned good, especially that kind.

                          It's about time Hollywood figured this out.

                              The phrase 'miserable scouse git' springs to mind.

                              I wonder if he's a failed film-school graduate.

                                He’s an entertainer, or trying to be one. His wheelhouse happens to be making fun of movies he hates. So he makes videos about that.

                                    “He hates almost all movies” appears to miss that fact, so as an educator, I was compelled to educate.

                                        I'll take your word for it. That video was the first one I ever watched from him, and I wasn't motivated to explore his channel to figure out why he was not the sort of person to whom anybody should give respect.

                                          https://www.boxofficepro.com/weekend-box-office-indiana-jones-and-the-dial-of-destiny-draws-disappointing-60m-domestic-debut/

                                          Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny failed to whip up much excitement over its opening weekend at the domestic box office. The film bowed to an estimated $130 million worldwide, including a disappointing $60 million 3-day haul coming from North America. The domestic figures are projected to hit $82 million over the five-day holiday weekend frame, a steep decline from the opening weekend of its predecessor, 2008’s Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, which earned $100 million in its debut. The $60 million three-day figure actually comes in below the domestic opening weekend for Paramount’s Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, which opened to $61 million back in June.

                                          Audience reactions to the latest Indiana Jones sequel have been more favorable to the film’s critical reception. Dial of Destiny scored four out of five stars among General Audiences from Comscore’s Postrack polling, and 4.5 out of five stars from the service’s Parents and Kids demographic. CinemaScore polling came in at B+ for the sequel, while Rotten Tomatoes reports an 89% Verified Audience rating. That’s where the good news ends with what seems to be another major studio title that seriously misjudged the audience’s appetite for a nostalgia sequel. Only a quarter of the film’s opening weekend audience was under the age of 25, with moviegoers above the age of 54 representing the title’s largest age group with 21% of ticket sales.

                                          The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
