Disney flew employees to theatres across the country. They tried to conduct exit surveys for Indiana Jones. But the audience is too small to do satistical analysis.

I streamed a free cam of it last night. It's definitely the worst out of all the Indy movies. Nothing incredibly woke in it either, it's just a shit movie with a shitty cast. Whoever played "Wombat" qualifies as the most annoying cast character of the year award. Abysmally awful performance.
I had the same "ahoy matey" version myself.
Its neither good nor bad ... It's so fucking mediocre that it's painful to watch. Even the damn soundtrack is mediocre ... Crystal Skull had some memorable soundtrack parts like the theremin. Absolutely nothing about the soundtrack stands out.
I am in no way suggesting anyone pay to see it by saying it's "mediocre" ... All I'm suggesting is that this movie offers absolutely nothing new and is a total bore to watch. In many ways, that's worse than "bad" ... Some people enjoy bad movies! This movie fails to take a single risk by offering up something new in the Indy mythology.
Crystal Skull took a couple of risks ... Most fell flat of course, but at least people stayed awake :-)! They didn't have the balls to take any risks in this snoozefest. Virtually every action sequence in the film is something you've seen 100 times before in many different movies. You don't feel anything watching them. At least bad, cringy risks (like nuking the fridge) make you feel something.
They tried to make the chick more of a Han Solo/Roguish kind of antiquity chaser vs Indy being the "it belongs in a museum" idealist ... It clearly didn't work and anyone in their right mind could see that the movie was nothing more than a boring, 2h 24m commercial for a TV series featuring Indy's "dubious morals" sidekick.
The movie literally has no soul ... None. It's like a buggy ChatGPT wrote and directed it. If I would have paid to see it in a theater, I'd feel ripped off.
Nothing incredibly woke? Must've missed the whole new strong independent woman character upstaging the main male lead part.
Yes I noticed the girl power vibe. But, I was referring to the LGBTBBQ420Pedovore nonsense.
That’s impressive. Considering many Indy fans are content to pretend Kingdom of the Crystal Skull never happened and it ended on Last Crusade.
Worse than Jar Jar?
Ironically considering some of the modern cast of Star Wars characters. Jar Jar looks down right tolerable by comparison.
