Indiana Jones Ticket, River North, Chicago
Yesterday Google treated us to the new Indiana Jones movie. It was fun to go with a whole bunch of people you know and just fill up the entire theater. The new movie is just as campy as ever, with Indy’s corny lines thrown in and all the unbelievable action sequences and over the top Russian villains. We laughed a lot at parts that weren’t meant to be funny. I think it’s about equal to the previous 3 movies, but we all saw those when we were like 10*, so we didn’t realize how crazy they were. If you go see the movie, just have fun. Don’t think about inconsistencies and how certain things would never happen. This isn’t an Oscar contender, don’t expect too much, be nostalgic and go for the ride.
I was actually 6, 9, and 14 when each of the previous movies were released. That averages 10, right?
And here is Paul Baker talking to Kate after the movie:
