'Indiana Jones is evil'

Do these idiots really have nothing better to do than bag a ficticious character in a movie?

Oh nose!

"Our women don't look like Nazis, but maybe Cate Blanchett was threatened by unemployment, so ... she made this film," Perov said.

"Harrison Ford and Cate Blanchett [are] second-rate actors, serving as the running dogs of the CIA. We need to deprive these people of the right of entering the country," said another party member, Andrei Gindos.


Cate is EVIL.

But she said if the character played by Hollywood veteran Harrison Ford was a real archaeologist, his methods would face stern criticism from colleagues.


Hehehehehe

Well, she's right about that.  Indiana Jones is just a glorified grave-robber.  But it's a movie!  Since when did they mimic real human life anyway?

Well...on the other hand, movies do have the power to piss people off.  I mean, if you had someone in a fucking stupid haircut playing an Aussie with a crappy accent saying things like "cobber" and "mate" every 4 words being the bad guy, you'd be annoyed, wouldn't you?

Though, personally I think this is someone's idea of a joke...they even said "running dogs of the CIA", FFS.

Even Cate said it was the ugliest haircut she had ever seen.

Maybe not the ugliest (not that much of a fringe), but yeah...

Oh...though...about Harrison Ford being a second rate actor...when was the last time he did anything good?  I mean, the days of Star Wars and the old Indiana films are long behind him...he went on to make Air Force One, remember.

Short fringes are uglier than long fringes.

My mum always had a short fringe - it looked terrible.  Now I notice the Nanna in the BB house has one too.  What is it with old ducks and short fringes?  It's a very nasty look.  :?

Having seen the movie just now, yeah...WTF was with the Russians?  Though, the really lame US propaganda movie style depiction was just one of several WTF moments.

It would have been a nice movie if they'd resisted the urge to copy lame movies like Hellboy and that treasure hunting shite with Nicolas Cage instead of keeping it Indiana Jones with obvious ripped off scenes of The Mummy.

Apart from the uber cliched ending it was pretty good. 

Helps to be an old fart who remembers plenty of the movies they are taking the piss out of.

Well, there's taking the piss out of movies, and there's ripping off old crap cause they can't think of anything good.

Though, yeah, the ending, and various "revelations" that led up to it which every B movie has done to death...and Cate Blanchett's character...if they'd got rid of those it wouldn't have been so bad.

The kid with teh switchblade was actually pretty cool, normally roles like that deserved to have "epic fail" written on them.
