I’m so bored already with Indiana Jones and the Not as Good Movie as We’d Hoped that I may not even see it until its well into its run. In July (at least six weeks after the film opens), I’ll be visiting my father down in Alabama and so maybe I’ll wait and watch it with him. After all this bad buzz, such a nostalgic experience may be the only way to appreciate and enjoy it. Anyway, the only thing I’m more tired of than reading about Indy is watching movie trailers redone to make them like Brokeback Mountain. So, it’s really like having lemon juice poured on my pop culture booboo today to have been directed toward the fairly old video seen above. Thanks Stu.
If you’re still hungry for more on the Indy backlash, check out the continued updates on Defamer, which include links to Shia LaBeouf’s denial of the film’s negative reviews and claims that SpoutBlog friend Eric Kohn has lowered the bar of film criticism by liveblogging from the Cannes press screening. (Plus, there’s new Uwe Boll updates, which I myself have sworn against continuing for the time being).
