I may have missed the conversation between knight John Rhyss and Indie, still thanks for reminding me. Anyway so much for immortality if you spend eternity in a secluded cave without even a celphone nor an MP3 player.

HJ Sr is not immortal.

When he drank from the cup, it just healed his mortal wound. As stated by the knight, immortality can only be attained within the cave. So even if he drank while not mortally wounded, once he gets out of the cave, he is mortal again.

The alien conversation was mind melding,.. no need for words or elapse of time…

Oh, but Henry Sr. isn’t immortal, Ken. The Grail Legend specifies that to achieve immortality, one must drink from the Grail every day, and that the Grail may never leave the cave. Ergo, both Henry Sr. and Indy aren’t immortal.

I do agree that National Treasure (both installments) are better than Indy 4, I keep expecting Nick Cage to pop up during the mayan temple scenes. perhaps what Indy 4 showcases is that George Lucas and Stephen Spielberg are too fond of their alien related franchises

Marion Ravenwood isn’t hot, but she’s far and away the most interesting. Willy is too shrill, Ilsa too cold, Spalko too campy. The only good thing anyone got out of Temple of Doom was Steven Spielberg marrying Kate Capshaw. My fave installment is still The Last Crusade though, it’s the funniest of the 4.

I haven’t seen the Mummy 4’s trailer yet. Does it still work without Rachel Weiss?

Phoebs, Indy 4 has a problem of continuity as Henry Jones SR. is supposedly immortal as he drank from the grail. However, it was stated that he passed away. Where was the big hurrah about the undead warriors? They’re more likely much-alive indians in hiding protecting the grave. The Alien conversation was cut short. And it looks like a national treasure copycat. Geez, I was expecting more from Steven Spielberg and George Lucas. For me, National Treasure, Book of Secrets faired better than this junky installation.

I never find Marion Ravenwood hot. I still prefer Willy.

Ken: Legend of the Crystal Skull is still very entertaining, you won’t be disappointed as long as you didn’t expect to be blown away. It’s great to see the Marion Ravenwood character again. She’s always been my favorite Indy love interest–the original kick-ass love interest.

Uhm, just watched some trailers while watching Indy jones… Batman outshines the Hulk even with Liv Tyler, unfortunately, no Katie Holmes-Cruise for bats. The Mummy and the Dragon Emperor. JET LI SUPER ROCKS as the VILLAIN.

This may be off thread, but after watching the fourth installation of Indy Jones, it is sad to say, it failed to amaze me. I still love Raiders of the Lost Ark and the Last Crusade better.

Sorry for the double post but i only saw the death star comment after I posted.

Almost anything can beat the Death Stars, but Star Wars could take out Star Trek any day.

I’d do the same thing and more with Professor X’s powers.
