What Should Have Happened to George Lucas

I was getting serious Oldboy vibes from the early scenes of George in prison.So, imagine my delight to see a shout out to that fantastic corridor fight scene. Great stuff.
For the record, I'd watch this movie. Especially if it featured a sequence of George Lucas rampaging down a corridor with a hammer, bludgeoning everyone else out of his way.

Seriously I'm so glad that they worked that phrase into this video.
Really, if you look back on the other Indiana Jones movies, suddenly the Crystal Skull isn't that ridiculous in comparison. "But Shia LeBouf was swinging on vines with monkeys and fencing on a speeding jeep hood. And the ending was completely stupid and far-fetched," you might say. But think back to those other movies.

Let's face it, the real reason we hate Crystal Skull is because of Shia LeBouf, otherwise, it's not much crazier than anything else Spielberg and Lucas did.

Indy escape a crashing airplane by jumping out of it in an inflatable raft and down a mountainside. Indy ride on top of a submarine for an extended period of time without the slightest hint of overexposure. Indy fights against the Nazis for an ancient box that melts people's faces with ghosts. Indy fights against India death cults wherein the leader has the power to pull people's hearts out with his bare hands, AND said victims are still alive even after their hearts are forcibly removed. Indy fights against Nazis (again) for the holy grail (which grants immortality) along with the 1000 year old knight that protects the grail along with the invisible bridge. And all of sudden ALIENS is far too unreasonable for fans to accept

Well, that and the fact that 'exploding because you know to much' make no freaking sense has a way to kill off a villain.irishda said:
How much cooler would it have been if she had just collapsed after the 'brain' surge... and then at the end (maybe after the credit), we'd see her in an asylum of somekind, scribbling endlessly on the wall... than the camera pan to what she's scribbling and we see it's highly advance mathematical equation. Her brain was fried, but she still has all that knowledge... but without the ability to communicate, it's worthless.
So much more powerful has an ending... and not exactly costly to film.
If only.
Re-watching the prequels today along with the original trilogy the gap in quality is just breathtaking. It's downright painful at points trying to watch the prequels, it's just... bad. They really are. I don't know how anyone could enjoy them.

The ability to create crappy prequels is insignificant when compared to the righteous ass kicking that comes from a director wronged.
And anyone who liked the prequels needs to see a doctor. They were crimes against all that is cool and nerdy in the world, and should be thrown in to Mount Doom.

I was just thinking the same thing. That's the best trailer I've seen in a long time, shame it isn't an actual movie.Roganzar said:
