Indiana Jones 5 - No More Heroes

Thanks to Ozkii & Mr Brown for their help with this video. Links to both channels are in the description. Give them a sub! Audio might be a bit peaky for the first 30 minutes because I am an idiot.

You know, if 10 years ago someone told me that “in the next 10 years Hollywood will become so shitty that you’d rather spend 3.5 hours watching a critique of your favorite franchise rather than watching an actual movie from that franchise” i’d call him crazy but look where we are

The takedown of Disney as the anti-Indiana Jones who simply cannot leave relics in the museum is absolutely poetic.

I always interpreted "it belongs in a museum" as "it needs to be protected and displayed so everyone can see important parts of the past with their own eyes." I don't think it's hard to see why it applies to old movies.

I still can't get over how the nazis' plan is to go back in time and kill Hitler. This isn't even a shark jump, this is a rocket-powered motorcycle doing a triple backflip over a pool full of cloned megalodons.

Makes no sense for a wannabe rebel like Mutt to enlist in the Army. He’d be the last guy to go to Vietnam.

Rachel Weisz, in The Mummy, perfectly captured the "educated, elegant and beautiful heroine" far better than Waller-Bridge could ever dream of. And she never seemed out of place in the film's time period.

To this day...hearing his dad call him by his real name and telling him to let it go still hits me hard. Between Indys shocked face and his dad's I finally get it now...perfect ending to their story.

Helena: "You're an aging grave-robber" Indy: "Part time"

"Kennedy won't be assassinated until six years ago" was the slyest line in a video full of delightfully sly lines. Well done.

"And that's how I saved Hitler" -Indiana Jones, 2023.

I think I just noticed for the first time when Sean Connery is holding Harrison Ford when he's trying to reach the grail, that is the one time he refers to him as 'Indiana' rather than 'Junior'. Badass

The sniggering disdain and anti-charisma in all the Helena stills are amazing. Well done.

I always like the way the older films portrayed elderly characters as wise, maybe a bit set in their ways, but able to pass on the benefit of their experiences to the younger generation. Henry Jones, Sr. was such a character. Obiwan was, too. But the new movies have no reverence for older male characters, it almost seems like they resent them and the audience for cherishing them.

Indiana has truly gone from having a career digging around in ruins to having a career in ruins.

Whoever wants to see the actual Lance of Longinius can see it at the Imperial Treasury at the Hofburg Palace in Vienna. There's also a replica of the lance of longinius that Otto III had made in 1000 to gift to the duke Boleslaw I of poland when he delcared him as "socius et amicus". That replica today can be found at the Wawel royal castle in Krakow. The actual Antikythera mechanism was found broken into three main fragments all lumped together in one clump. Currently, due to reconstruction and conservation efforts it is broken up into a total of 82 seperate fragments. All fragements are currently in posession of the National Archeological Museum Athens and can be seen there.

Little platoon never fails to impress that he can go 3+ hours without repeating himself, become dull and been entertaining and interesting with well reasoned intelligent points

I'm not even a massive Indiana Jones fan, but I speak for all of us when I say I am so sick and exhausted of companies taking classic beloved movie franchises and utterly ruining them and stripping away what made them so fun and successful in the first place. Some time to be alive.

"I said: my biggest fear is making a bad movie" the way he looked at her while stating that was so telling. Also, btw, it seems he was playing himself in that psychiatrist show (it's pretty decent; kinda funny and has good moments).

I'm such a f## I teared up at the "Indiana - let it go" scene. There is so much genuine paternal love and guidance conveyed in so few words with that soft tone Connery used. There is more genuine feeling in that moment than a dozen modern Disney movies.
