All white cast?
The trailers and IMDB list shows the main actors are all white.
How is it possible in this day and age? And from Disney? And from Kathleen Kennedy?
they were just tired of losing money..........
but nazis again??
this movie will fail like a fat rocket
What is wrong with Nazi? All the good Indiana movies are fighting Nazi: 1&3. The bad ones are not fighting Nazi: 2&4.
Bring Nazi back in 5 is a good sign this will be a good movie, like Wolfenstein: Indiana must fight Nazi!
Your logic is unimpeachable.
shareYou make an excellent point.
shareNazi villains are way down the list of what made I and III the best Indy films. Belloq was the best of the villains and he was just a collaborator. He could just as well have been only what he actually was: a rival archaeologist. The actual Nazis could've been replaced by anyone from anywhere. Nazis are used only because they're a safe, politically uncontroversial option.
shareThen what make 1 and 3 good?
shareAction, adventure, great acting, no annoying characters, intriguing mystical treasures, wit...
shareHonestly, I found Marcus a little annoying in Last Crusade, because they turned him into the buffoonish comic relief. He hadn't been that at all in Raiders, he was a completely serious and reliable senior academic colleague, and sincere friend to Indy. All in all, that was a minor annoyance in an otherwise outstanding film, so it doesn't bother me much, but I still didn't like the direction they took with Brody's character in the third movie.
shareTemple of Doom is NOT a bad movie, you dumb shit.
What's wrong with Nazís?
I think you mean what's wrong with USING them as the enemy in a movie.. I SERIOUSLY hope that's what you mean.
In any case, it's wrong because it's the LAZIEST thing you can do for a villain or enemy in a movie. It's the 'historical bad guy' (after all, the winners write history), Hitler is thought to be the most evil man in all history, the Nazís the most evil group in history (although looking at Mao and Communism.. but we're not allowed to mention that), so it's not exactly CHALLENGING or expression of creative writing to utilize 'those guys' as the villain.
It doesn't require any thought, everyone already hates Nazís, so you don't have to do any character building or worldbuilding, it's all premade. It's like using stock footage or writing only tropes and clichés, or some premade texture pack that everyone uses.
It's not completely wrong, of course, but it's just so incredibly lazy, that unless you use it well or have something new to say, a new angle to the whole thing, or are able to make good comedy out of it, it's just so obviously lazy, it should raise an alarm in anyone wishing to see a good movie with good writing.
Leftists/jews control hollywood and they've been obsessed with nazis for generations. It's their political boogeyman.
shareexactly....... and if they absolutely HAVE to go back to WW2 all the fucking time, how about focusing a bit on the Japanese during that war........ the things THEY did, make the Germans look like choirboys in comparison.
have you ever had of Unit 731 ?
Holy shit.....

Guess Hollywood are afraid to step on the toes of the people that make all their electronic equipment !
What do you have against Japanese, are you a racist?
I mean, Japanese still exist, for crying out loud, and they are people just trying to live their lives in a certain country.
Nazís were a POLITICAL GROUP hell-bent on racistic WORLD DOMINATION. Japan only did the atrocities, not because they planned to, but because circumstances drove them towards that direction and they didn't know how to put on breaks at the time.
They are NOT the same people that current Japanese are, so doing this kind of thing would be incredibly insulting and racistic. WHAT country hasn't done atrocities in history? Your kind of thinking is just like always talking about black slavery and blaming current white people for it.
I know many japanese people, and they're great human beings, for crying out loud.
Don't use history as a weapon and an excuse to be a racist, hmmkay?
You sound very stupid...... the Japanese took part in WW2.
They were on the NAZIS side!
They were fighting with them! Makes them even more despicable in fact, because they were following a leader in Hitler, which language they could not even understand.
And the fact is, the Japanese committed far worse war crimes than the Germans towards prisoners of war.
You are probably a Japanese yourself or partly..... no other reason to be upset.
Your past is dirty, dark and shameful
Hi Tom. Don't bring up old sh!t because it like totally hurts the younger generations feelings.
shareI don't hate German, because they apologize many times, but Japanese never apologize and keep playing victims: "American are bad, they use nuclear bombs on us."
shareThey support the ones in Ukraine though.
