Sheesh people, it's only a movie. So you folks also believe there is really a Superman and Batman?

Yeah it is just a movie but I would have liked a GOOD movie.

gamera - You took the hype and spent your money to see it. All the Indiana Jones movies were/are so unbelievable anyway. Never paid a cent to see one. Just waited for it to appear on regular TV. Didn't miss much it seems.

****Indiana Jones is not meant to be taken seriously. Matter of fact, they're so ridiculous that I've never watched one all the way through.

Just something else for certain people to squawk about.

It is disappointing not to see that Mr Spielberg is aware of reality, even though he is one of the world’s top film directors.

Because, you know, films always reflect the exactness of reality.

Huh? "films always reflect the exactness of reality."

What "reality" are you existing in?

it is a popcorn movie! And godjira is of course more scientific

The only funny scene was with Shia LeBeouf riding the motorcycle out of the mist, did not marlon brando do the same?

Is Shia LeBeouf a Shia? Nobody has a real name like that, surely..?

Its a movie and a very enjoyable one at that. It just wanted to show what it was like to live in the 50s with the nuclear threat in everyones mind at that time. What we know is different now, but that was the thinking then and is not meant to disrespect people who were affected by the atomic bombs or were used as guinea pigs. This person has no idea what he is writing about and is actually disrespecting the people who lived through that time. All I can say is he is full of hot air.

This scene is just wrong. It's like they set out to offend the Japanese from the beginning.

Those involved in the production won't be welcome back. We will see to it.

Would they get the US nuke attack part from "Mars Atacks!"?
