DD went to see it yesterday. She said that the beginning parts were the best CGI she's seen in a recent movie (I don't go to movies often enough to comment on that, lol), and that Harrison Ford hasn't slowed down much. hahaha Don't know how that can be true given his age, but I'll look forward to seeing it. Dd said it was "SO GOOD!!" (caps and exclamation marks hers)

We went yesterday and really enjoyed it. We all thought Crystal Skull was terrible so were a little nervous.

So glad to hear that people are enjoying this . With a couple in the series that were real stinkers I love that it will go out on a good movie. Looking forward to seeing just not sure it will be in a theater.

We really enjoyed it! Indiana Jones is still fun to watch, even as Harrison Ford has aged.

Just got back from seeing it with dh. We loved it! It's the old-style Indy movies....lots of wild stunts, creepy bugs/snakes, evil people... A lot of fun.

I really enjoyed the movie. The only 2 things I remember about Crystal Skull is aliens and Shia LaBeouf is Indy's son.
I want to know how this movie is "woke".

We will probably wait until it streams, as we moved to a new town and don't even know where the movie theater is located! I know google will fix that, just not on the list of priorities. I recently saw a photo of Harrison Ford as part of the promo for the movie. Yes he is looking great for 81.
Fun story about Harrison. We have a friend who helps him with his flying stuff, works on his planes etc. A few years back we were at EAA AirVenture (conclave for all things Experimental Aviation related), a week long celebration, airshow, and camping extravaganza. Any way, DH had a booth for his business, so he was "working" and as a family we were in support roles. I was walking along at the venue and a golf cart went by with my friend on the back. I shouted his name, and Harrison's comment to my friend was "slow down or go faster" LOL Harrison was in full disguise with a big white beard and lots of crazy hair, sunglasses and hat. My friend said "slow down". It was fun because we didn't even know the friend was coming. Harrison had said friend join him on his private flight. Friend had his camping gear etc to stay on the grounds, but Harrison said "oh no, we have a room for you" at the hotel nearest the venue.

We went this afternoon and really enjoyed the movie. It had pretty much everything I expect in an Indiana Jones movie.

DH, DS and I went on the 5th and all enjoyed it. Did anyone else think he was going to *stay behind*? I had tears in my eyes when *you-know-who* showed up at the end. Perfect way to end it.

For maybe a second but I thought there's no way bc if he stayed he would change history which ended up being the main reason Helena brought him back. I loved seeing Marion at the end. And I really like the Teddy character!!

Let's just say that I thought the same thing, and then I thought what @christine68 said.

I saw it yesterday! If I had to rank the movies in order of preference, I would say 1, 3, 5, 2 and 4. I thought Short Round was supposed to show up? My DS and I watched all of the movies before seeing this, and I am glad bc I forgot about Indiana & Marion's son. I also teared up when he asked her "WHAT DOESNT HURT" like she asks him in ROTLA and she kisses his elbow, above his eyebrow and then his lips.

I absolutely love Harrison Ford and as a librarian dressed as Indiana Jones for our parade when the theme was "Find your treasure" a few years ago! Still have my golden chalice. Some new Luxe theatres just opened 5 minutes from us so we bought tickets to see it in style. Huge comfy chairs with foot rests and recliners and delicious hot food and drinks delivered to us when we wanted it! SIX people ( this included husband and me) I loved the movie- it was what I expected it to be - adventure, bad guys( Nazis ...and of course romance!) We have actually started watching the series from the beginning again - one movie each night. We are up to Crystal Skull and although I know it is the"dud" movie in the series we are still going to watch it. Corinne
