Surprised this wasn't posted. Part 1Part 2[Profanity and some bits are really NSFW] On point about a lot of things. I do disagree that people don't really care about Indy's character (and really just want to be him), as I know I certainly cared about him, especially in regards to his relationship with his father in Last Crusade. Definitely a good analysis though.

A good analysis, to be sure, but I'm getting kind of tired of these. The amount of time it takes to make these videos usually end up outweighing the quality, and with this one in particular, there weren't as many funny moments to make it worthwhile.
Another problem I had was that, unlike the Star Wars and Star Trek reviews, this one didn't have as many layers of in-story history to expound upon, which means that the mistakes Indiana Jones 4 made were more rudimentary and not as interesting to talk about. Plus, it doesn't take itself as seriously as Wars or Trek did, so there just wasn't that much to say about it in the end.
I'd be down if he did reviews of The Matrix sequels, but I imagine that wouldn't be out for another year, at least.

To be honest, I thought he was really trying to look for things to hate, surprised he like Shia and didn't mention the nuke fridge. Dear god that Olsen Twins scene.

Dear god that Olsen Twins scene. Honestly, the only laugh I got out of this one. It was a big one, though.

I will never get sick of these.
Although the turnaround is an unreasonable length of time.
It's like waiting for a complete DVD release of The Wonder Years.

I liked the review. The "I am a killer" bits are stale, but the substance of the actual review is still solid.
