saw the new movie last night. opeing scene had me thinking 'this is gonna be great'. but it never got any better. just didnt grab me. maybe its because they cant recreate me being 11 again...

I really enjoyed it, despite some stupid CG animal inserts, and just too much CGI in general. If there's two franchises that should do everything practical, it's Bond and Indy.

There were plenty of dumb moments, but overall I liked it. The motorcycle chase was excellent. The fridge was a funny scene, though highly implausible. (But so are aliens...)

I'd love to have seen Frank Darabont's script instead. David Koepp didn't quite nail it.

Harrison Ford DID nail it, though. Man, I hope I'm half as agile at that age....

Well . . . lets not forget about stunt doubles  :P  I know that Ford has a reputation for doing many of his own stunts, but . . .

I haven't seen it yet, personally.  Wanted to go last weekend, but couldn't get a babysitter.

I count myself lucky - our baby has been to the movies on multiple occasions and has never been a problem. She sleeps thru most of it, even now in the toddler stage. We'll still mostly stick with grandma babysitting for the most part now.

When you see it, you'll see the scenes where it's very clearly him doing his own work in this movie. There are plenty of times where you say, "Oh, that's a double," but you'll be more impressed the times when you go, "Whoa, that was all him!"
