I'd probably rank it third behind Raiders and Crusade and before Doom, but that's not to say I didn't enjoy it.  I just wanted to be entertained for a couple of hours and Crystal Skull did just that, so I'm happy.

Mikey and Scott's posts were a lot more concise than my earlier one, but I pretty much agree with all that they said.  Sure, the alien plot was "different" from what we were used to, but I can accept it with fitting in with the 50's sci-fi serials (and that it was a topic of that timeframe).  Like Mikey said, it entertained me for a couple of hours, so I'm happy as well.  I wouldn't mind seeing it again actually, and I'm already looking forward to the DVD.  I wonder if we'll get an Indy 5 (or beyond) now, it sounds like it did pretty well at the box office this weekend (domestic and worldwide).

I didn't have a problem with the prairie dogs or the ants.  

I don't like you anymore.

I finally got to see it and...I liked it.  I think I liked it a lot (was I supposed to hate it :-[

The more I reflect on this movie, the more I like it too.  I need to see it a few more times in the theatres.

According to boxoffice mojo, Indiana Jones has the largest openning weekend grosses for this year. It did $151,081,00 domesticly and $146,388,656 foreign. Somebody out there must like this movie.

I don't like you anymore.

I lived in Guyana, South America for ten months, and I was regularly chased home by ants exactly like that.  One time they caught my roommate, overcame him, crawled into his mouth and began eating his entire body, and then dragged the remains into a big anthill.  It sucked, because that month I had to pay rent all by myself.

One time I saw ghosts jump out of a box and melt everyone.

Another time, some guy ripped another guy's heart from his chest, but the guy was still alive.

And there was that one time that a guy drank from a cup, then he dried up and became a skeleton in just a few seconds.

Actually, that's the total it made in its first 5 days.  For the actual "weekend" (Friday/Saturday/Sunday), it made $100,137,835 ... narrowly outgrossing Iron Man's opening weekend by roughly $1.5 million.  If you count Memorial Day, it made $126,917,373 for the four-day weekend.

Wow, you guys have lived in some crazy places and seen some crazy stuff.

My personal story, I saw a guy once fly out of the front of a truck, catch himself on the grill guard, slide under the truck by hanging onto the frame and then get drug behind it for a mile at high speed before pulling himself onto the back and then getting back into the cab and kicking the drivers ass.  Oh yeah, he also whipped about 10 guys asses before he did that.  You guys are so full of it.  ;)

Well, I really did live in Guyana for ten months, and there were really big ants.

The rest might be...a slight exaggeration.

I knew a dude like that.  He got in a bar fight, kicked all sorts of ass, even throwing a meat skewer into this other dude's chest, then the dude jumped out a window, and went through three awnings into a friggin' car.   Not only that, but this dude was so crazy he did all this stuff with poison in him, AND, he let some little kid drive his car!

Didn't MacGyver fight killer ants?
This is the way.

Jim Ward keeps a trained army of killer ants as pets.
