All Consuming

A question I have about this — 1 year ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

Why do people say that it’s stupid to revive the character and then go and see the movie? If you don’t want to see a revival movie, don’t go and see this movie.

To quote Emily’s review (see below):

“Are moviegoers so nostalgic about old heroes that they need to see them struggling past their prime?”

-yes, we are. So there. Seeing an old hero struggle past his prime is part of the fun of the movie. They did hand over a lot of the action to Shia LeBoef because Harrison Ford couldn’t have done it all on his own. I thought Mutt as a character fit well into the whole story. I didn’t like the Tarzan quote, either, but let’s not forget IT’s A B-MOVIE! (So aliens are OK.)

“What about new heroes?” There are plenty of new heroes. Go see the new “Mummy”-movie, if Brendan Fraser floats your boat.

I thought Harrison Ford did amazingly well at being the same character, physically! It was the mental attitude that seemed to have aged a bit, at the start of the film, before he remembered how to have more fun :)
