"Indiana Jones and the Insufferable Feminist" is not sitting well with moviegoers, and the director is mad about it.
We’d rather watch a movie about a man who rescues kids from sexual slavery than a movie produced by a man whose sexual deviancy killed a child actress that appeared in a couple of his movies back in the 80s.
Heather O’Rourke?
Exactly
Him and Spielberg wasn’t it?
Thanks, I somehow missed that. Can you give names and details? Not that I don't believe you, I just don't recall this happening.
Research Heather O’Rouke’s short life. She was the child star in Poltergeist and its sequel.
Oh yes, I do remember Heather O'Rourke and that episode. My bad, I thought you were talking about Harrison Ford and some incident involving him. But you said "produced by"... I wasn't paying attention. The O'Rourke girl was a sad incident for sure.
We have been destroying their movies to the tune of a half Billion per flick. If you look at the last 3 Big Hollywood movies, we left those more than 1 Billion of the break-even point. This all looks like part of a plan to destroy the kiddie diddlers in Hollywood. I believe it is all a slow burn meant for normies to withdraw their money before the investments crash to zero. Those who chose to keep their investments in these companies deserve to lose their money.
Nice little straw man they set up via the Hollywood Reporter:
“Life is filled with peaks and valleys, and I appreciate when my fictional heroes, such as Indy, have their own ups and downs. So why does a segment of the audience seem to want these legacy characters to be infallible? I just can’t figure out why anyone would want such little drama.”
So, we're unsophisticated rubes who want two-dimensional heroes. 🙄
Someone needs to tell him that Top Gun II — featuring an older, sympathetic Maverick who never really came to terms with Goose's death, and who only kept his job thanks to Iceman's repeated interventions — was a huge success.
Yeah, but to be clear it was the shitty journo and not the shitty director who said that. I know you are stating that, but since people are already interpreting it to be worse than what was actually said I wanted to clarify.
Yeah I could've been a little more clear, it was the Hollywood Reporter guy who framed the conversation that way. Mangold's response was much more measured, considering. I didn't get the impression from the interview that he was "lashing out".
I'm all for hating on Disney, but what he said isn't even that bad -- and I hate that I had to actually go to the link in the article to another article to actually read what he said.
This is the only somewhat negative thing he said:
"So, if people want to be divisive [in the age of social media], they can focus on where a character starts, as opposed to where they end, or they can focus on where they end, as opposed to where they start."
I don't know when we became soft snowflakes, but that's not really "lashing out".
They're doing enough to destroy their brand already; treating this nothing burger like a royale with cheese just makes us look petty.
This is too funny.
Good I am collecting salt for my popcorn.
Indy in Raiders - Marion says to Indy, "I was a child. I was in love." Indy responds, "You knew what you were doing." The vague language carries the possibility of some disturbing history, to say the least.
Link to article with actress who played Marion. She tries to down play it. https://www.ign.com/articles/indiana-jones-karen-allen-clarifies-scene-indy-predator-raiders-of-the-lost-ark
That line always stood out to me. Why would they write it that way? Predowood
