Well, that's just, like, your opinon, man. There's a lot of adjectives that can be used for that show's writing but "boring" is not one.

True, although it was also odd that is was such a massive town, especially in relation to Sweetwater. Does it make sense for this huge location to be locked away in the more "difficult" part of the park that not as many tourists visit as the main locale?

I'm a naysayer at this point and I'm pretty close to classifying the show as A Mess. Not a glorious mess like True Detective S2 but something duller without a center or tone to hang its hat on. The logistics are all over the place. The fact that the "Next On" was comprised of scenes of multiple episodes was…

The second one just didn't look quite as good as the first and I think that hurt it. Trotting across Europe was an ok idea in theory but the locations didn't have the dense, grimy feel of the original's London. That apparently all CG German munitions factory they spent time in was pretty uninspired.

Bet you never heard of Gettysburg either. Fuckin' battle. Carnage.

Be honest. You don't know who this character is.

When I actually played them, I was shocked how dull and unimpressive I found them as both a big Indiana Jones and Tomb Raider fan. Loose-feeling controls, annoying shooting sections, too simple climbing, and an obnoxious protagonist.

I'm with you. The way most Internet People feel about post-Dawn of the Dead Zack Snyder movies are how I feel about his Dawn of the Dead. Loud, annoying, and missing the tone of the source material.

It truly is a disturbing scene and something that's always stuck with me as well. The 1990 remake's version haunted me too with its amped up gross-out factor with one of the zombie's suit falling away and exposing autopsy scars. So f-ed up. This was a time when zombies still had a mystique and as a death-fearing…

I'd put it in the upper 25th percentile of cgi summer blockbusters over the last decade. Not if that says more about Indy 4 or the rest of the movies.

I mean its the AV Club so I'd expect nothing less, but even, if we settle on Cate Blanchett's regiment of soldiers, they start the movie gunning down guards at Area 51 so it can be pretty confidently stated the ones featured in this movie are Bad Guys.

His willingness to give these types of interviews seems to buy him enough goodwill to stay out of the crosshairs (or people just don't know who he is) but his writing credits are pretty, uh, suspect, to say the least.

Yes, Russians, aliens, and atomic power in the 50's was actually the perfect set up for the movie. If the movie had only been made 10-12 years earlier with a younger Ford and a need for more practical effects, it would be markedly improved.

The written record of Spielberg, Lucas, and Kasdan's initial meeting is online in its entirety. Good stuff.

The "fucks" are, indeed, very unnatural sounding. In general I find it a surprisingly chaste show and it feels like some premium cable language was thrown in to keep up appearances.

I can't help but think of Marty McFly appearing to his father and terrorizing him with a Walkman as "Darth Vader from Planet Vulcan".

I'm starting to see why the show ran into "production troubles" last year. As the review points out, its hard to get invested in the characters. Especially when death literally doesn't matter. Granted, its only been four episodes but, man, this is not a show that will be remembered for its dialogue at the rate its…

Loooove the old 007 posters.

My Back to the Future VHS was from one of those periodic McDonald's promotions which a little online research tells me would have been the same tape in the video. (Those McDonald's promotions were pretty cool).

I remember showing him off an entire walk-in closest of VHS movies on MTV Cribs back in the day. This was right before DVD really "hit" so I've always wondered if he regretted that big investment in VHS.
