Never been a fan of his and I hate the Amazon links in all of his posts.

Moriarty pulls through again, though this time he takes far too long to get there.
But guess what his two biggest complaints are?
1. David Koepp - Professional Hack at your service
2. Poor conception behind visual/digital effect work
The two biggest thing I was worried about.
Just the same, his review, like the other two is actually getting me more excited for this than I ever have been, which still isn't much true, but it's better.

Normally I'm a big fan of Drew's writing, but I didn't appreciate the comments about the "smoking ruins of the Star Wars franchise". Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't he give good reviews to at least 2 of the prequels?
No spoken words said:Sorry, Lance, but Lucas has achieved just a tad more than directing a trilogy of blockbusters. Also, was this a Clone Wars review, or a review regarding another franchise? Just seemed like an uncalled for sentiment, not to mention a joke of a comment. If that franchise is ruined then I've totally lost my command of the English language.
Eh, moving on.
‘Indiana Jones’: The Verdict Is In From MTV News And It’s Not All Good
Published by Josh Horowitz on Monday, May 19, 2008 at 7:03 pm.
My friends, I have seen “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” and as much as I’d love to say “hold on to your potatoes,” I’m feeling a little blue today (check out what all the other critics are saying here). Keep in mind, I’m reserving my final judgment on this one until I see it a few more times but my first thoughts upon leaving the screening were nothing short of abject disapointment.
I had a good time. Watching Harrison roll around and jump from moving vehicle to moving vehicle was glorious at times. Marian Ravenwood’s smile can still light up a room. Hell, I even though Shia LaBeouf was the best Indy sidekick this side of Short Round.
BUT…and I’m afraid this is a truly all capital letter befitting BUT…this film doesn’t nearly compare with any of the previous three. It’s just not in the same universe. It’s a riff on Indy, as if a half-finished plot outline had been found by admirers of the original trilogy and done up in the best Spielberg-ian style they could muster. Musical cues by John Williams only call attention to the greatness of the previous works. Set pieces never soar. It’s a movie that feels rushed and padded all at the same time. Believe me, every word I write here kills me. Keep in mind, you’re reading the thoughts of a guy who still defends “The Phantom Menace.”

My buddies and I have a tradition of sneaking rum into the theater when we go see big event movies on opening night.
So I will be promptly posting a drunk review of Indy 4 here at around 3 am Thursday morning.....keep at least one eye peeled for it!!!

Why would you get drunk to watch a movie?

It's tradition, man. We've done it ever since we were sophomores in high school.
We each take a pint of rum and pour it into the cokes we buy at the concession stand. After that, we go to a bar and discuss the movie over a few brews. It's a time-honored tradition and a hell of a lotta fun. We only do it for the really big premieres, though.
deep said:give the guy a break
him and his buddies are in their early 20s
this sounds about right
get a start at the movie, then hit a bar or club afterwards
and from what I've read, rum might add to the enjoyment of "this movie".

Why is this a tradition, though? You need to be drunk for a movie? I don't get it. You can get trashed with your buddies any other time. Going to a bar after the movie, sure, whatever, but slipping rum into your soda during a film? I am just curious why that's something anyone would do.

I've never understood the phenomena of getting wasted at a concert either...
You pay all this money to go to the concert and then you pay a lot more money to drink so that you won't remember the show either on account of being too drunk or being in the beer tent for the whole show.
Why not just stay at home with a two-four and a CD?
