Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny | Official Trailer[iframe title="YouTube video player" width="560" height="349" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/y170QEOgYZ4?wmode=transparent&start=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="1"][/iframe] Doesn't look bad, but Harrison Ford certainly looks his age and can't really carry off an action hero role. Neither should he have to at 80. I think the series really does intend to reach 1993 in the Indiana Jones universe. 1993 is the canonical last appearance of Indy in The Young Indiana Jones chronicles. According to the Wiki: indianajones.fandom.com/wiki/1993indianajones.fandom.com/wiki/Indiana_Jones#Close_of_the_20th_centuryThe character would have passed away by the 2000s. Perhaps Indiana Jones becomes a centenarian, living long enough to see the arrival of the year 2000 and the War on Terror. |

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny | Official Trailer
Well at least he had the sense - and speed - to duck. Shades of the famous scene in the 1st movie where he's the one with the gun. Have to agree with Simon that at 80 he's too old for an action hero although a fair number of the images seem to be flash backs to the earlier films.

The trailer, combined with the rumours of the last few years regarding the film, do not bode well...

Does sound rather worrying.

NAPOLEON - Official Trailer We have an American saying... "When you see the LION, the movie will roar. When you see the SHIELD, the movie will preach justice. When you see the EAGLE, the movie will praise the nation,. When you see the MOUNTAIN, the movie promises an epic. When you see the FRUMP with the TORCH..."  You get a turkey. |

The Mountain is Paramount. Famous studios with a century of excellence. The Frump is Columbia which has for a century generally produced forgettable movies and some of the worst stuff ever committed to Celluloid. A "turkey" is something that is "unsuccessful"; especially a play or a film. |

I am confident that the movie will be as successful as "Prometheus" and for about the same reasons. |

NAPOLEON - Official Trailer
He's never going to compress ~20 years of history across a continent into a single film, even if it lasted for about a fortnight. Likely to have some dramatic battle scenes although they could be distinctly less than accurate given its Hollywood. Although there are signs it will look at his personal life and that last bit where he admits he never admits making a mistake does suggest its not going to be a whitewash of his activities.
It does mention his rise but wonder if it covers his fall?
