I am now collecting money for a plane trip to CA to punch George Lucas in the mouth..

This was so great back in the day. I've never known anyone else who played it.


As time goes by, I have become less and less enthused with ILM's effects work. I always thought that a lot of the reason the original Star Wars trilogy looked so great was because they used models - real objects - for the shots, instead of this artificial and flat CG junk.

I believe the saying is "George Lucas pwned you." Or is it the passive voice "You got pwned by George Lucas?"

More like Jules Verne.

Anyone a fan of The Secret Adventures of Jules Verne? Like Young Indiana Jones, only in the 19th century and with a Frenchman.

*****, you come here on an american, english speaking board and spew your cheese-mouth about french series like your opinion means something!!?? That's rude!!

Spielberg sucks anyways, no big surprise here. The trailer looks awful but I guess I have some sort of soft spot for Indiana Jones that will make me download it when (before?) it comes out. The alien thing might make me reconsider...

I'll happily provide the background movie music.

I did not want you to think that your joke went unappreciated. Given the diverse subjects (asian stereotypes, sucky Star Wars characters, Indiana Jones), you tied everything in nicely and hit a home run, at least for me. Well done

Shut up and be grateful, Frenchy!

Srsly, I believe I read somewhere that Lucas had the idea of giving one of the villains in Raiders of the Lost Ark a laser eye until someone convinced him not to. Indy fighting aliens is even dumber.

"You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads!"

I have ScummVM running on my phone and IJ&TFOA installed - I had not played it through on Action & Puzzle mode when it was released, only in the Team mode with whatshername. So that is something I have been meaning to do.
Trying to scare the chap in the hotel room with the sheet and torch was hilarious

Now, Manta rays with death rays would be better than sharks with laser beams
