Movies we've seen lately:
Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark,
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
Yep, we're going back and watching a classic, the Indiana Jones trilogy. We've only watched the first two, but I'm going to get the third from the library today. Yeah! My dad thought that Olivia would like them, since they're in the same genre as the movie National Treasure, (If you know Olivia, you'll know that she loves National Treasure, she's memorized most of it, and can quote it, as well as having watched it around a million times! I mean, I like it too, but I don't watch it over and over! Although, there are movies that I like a lot.) but I'm surprised at how much I like them too. We just watched the second one yesterday, and we liked it a lot. (Note: Olivia and I are the ones watching them, Claire would probably get scared.)
We're studying the Aztecs right now for history, and in the movie, there was this one scene where a freakish priest pulls the heart right out of someone, it looked very Aztec-inspired. (Not for the faint-hearted!) The first two Indiana Jones movies are rated PG, but I read that so many kids went to go see Temple of Doom and got the living daylights scared of them, so the moviemakers had to come up with the PG-13 rating just for The Last Crusade.
The fourth Indiana Jones movie, The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, is coming out on May 22nd, May is turning out to be a good month for movies. (Both Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian and Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull are coming out that month) I wonder how Indiana Jones will do in the theater, I heard that it'll have to rely a lot on fan nostalgia for it's success. (There'll have to be a lot of fan nostalgia, it's going to have to make at least $400 million for Paramount to make any profit!) But I'm sure that it has a huge fanbase, right?
