It did suck. Halfway through my wife asked me if we should just leave instead of waste another hour of our life.
As was expressed, they need to put the originals out in HD.

So for those of us that went HDDVD... anyone have any plans to copy BR to HDDVD? 
I agree, this movie was lame indeed, but if transferred well, would have some good demo material on it.

I didnt think it sucked. I thought it was fun. It wasnt as good as the originals but i viewed it as the last of an era.
I believe theres gonna be a lot of eye and ear candy on the b/r which is why i'm debating on buying it.

We watched Indy-IV last night. My expectations were very low, but it still managed to disappoint me.

I'm just rewatching this. Did anyone notice the lighting in this movie isn't right. Particularly in the opening scenes in the desert.

I thought Crystal Skull was ok. Quite enjoyed it actually.
I wasn't expecting much after all the bagging, I was pleasantly surprised.
I thought it was equal to the 3rd movie.
Raiders = 10/10 fantasic movie, one of my all time favourites.
Temple = 7/10 not too bad.
Last Crusade = 6/10 Pass
Crystal = 6/10 Pass
It was way better than Speed Racer.

I liked it too and will enjoy it again.
The only things I didn't like were the "lead lined" fridge survival, the unneccessary CG groundhogs/gophers and the stupid CGI monkeys/ tarzan part.
Looking past those I thought it was a good ride all the way through.

Yes, thinking about it, this is the kind of movie that should be done with NO CG.
Like the good old days.
But I still enjoyed it enough for a rental. It's not a buy-er, it's a rent-er.

I bought it on BR and I have no regrets. I can't wait to watch all the bonus material.
