Disney+ Raiders of the Lost Ark does not hold up

[blue-sun]

Roger Ebert's take;

Let's ask Roger how it holds up.

 

[blue-sun]

Add these to movies you can't love anymore, Ebert has spoken:

Ebert's Most Hated | Roger Ebert | Roger Ebert

EDITOR'S NOTE: Sometimes, Roger Ebert is exposed to bad movies. When that happens, it is his duty -- if not necessarily his pleasure -- to report them (fairly, accurately) as he sees them. Whether they're so bad they're funny, so bad they're not funny, or so unfunny they're not funny, he must...

Where I got that from was dated 2000 IIRC. Since he makes note of CGI, would seem to be fairly recent.

Well at least blue-sun has conviction I gotta respect that.


Even if you are COMPLETELY WRONG.

But we're all left...

So going through that list above, I don't think many will have much issue with any of his pans... Maybe 'Tommy Boy' and 'the Waterboy' but that's about it.

Never seen Tommy Boy. I just missed it and never watned to go back and watch it. I remember watching Waterboy and liking it at the time, but like Raiders, I haven't seen it in 20+ years and I suspect if I watched it today, it would be a POS.

Stargate was good, but I haven't seen in a while.

Kaiser Soze! I feel like I rewatched this about 7-8 years ago and it wasn't as good as I remember but still decent.

Oh, shit, I missed 'The Usual Suspects'

Not sure if that is a cult classic though that would get people fired up over. I think I've only watched it once or twice. It's not one of those where if I see it on, I gotta stop and tune-in. Raiders, Star Wars, BTTF, Ghostbusters (the originals, not the female shitty version), etc are those types of movies though...

 

[Mook]

Usual is a great flick.

 

[Fish]

We should all go counter with 10's.

Indiana Jones got my wife pregnant with all his charismatic masculinity and while I sat in the corner enjoying it all 10/10. ??

I hadn't seen Ghostbusters since I was a kid either and I watched it maybe 10-15 years ago. That's another POS that does not hold up. The ghost give him a blowjob. In a kids movie? WTF

How can you not see it regularly? It was on this past weekend on AMC or Paramount (I can never remember), in loop along with GB2.

 

[CMNTMXR57]

I think it's time a temporary ban is handed out for such treason...

Now you are just trolling.

Shut this bullshit thread down.

 

[CMNTMXR57]

Next he'll complain of Sigourney Weaver in the scene in her bra while bathing Oscar in GB2.

You people are the epitome of Uncle Rico.

LIVE IN THE NOW

WATCH SOMETHING NEW instead of rewatching all the same shitty old movies you used to from the 80s.

I tell my twins, when they say they are bored and are rewaching the same cartoons they watched as 3 yr olds. You literally have access to just about EVERY SHOW or MOVIE EVER MADE. Find something new.

Never seen Ghost Busters 2.

I assume this is also a POS movie that doesn't hold up.

Now you've not only insulted Uncle Rico, but you now are now also dissing GBII

I feel a major ban hammer will be swung shortly...

 

[blue-sun]

Let me guess. All new music sucks too, right?

 

[CMNTMXR57]

For the most part, yes...
