A cup of dessert

The history and legends researched by archaeologists are inherently unseen, so they are deeply mysterious under the interpretation of people's imaginations. Even viewers who are accustomed to the fantastic events around Dr. Jones will inevitably add more to this adventure. The last "more" comment. The crystal skull is a good word, and it should be as famous in the archaeological circle as the Holy Grail and the Holy Ark. It is said that the translation of the book called "The Mystery of the Crystal Skull" 10 years ago has been introduced so quickly and its influence has been unprecedented in China. This story, passed down from generation to generation by Native Americans, became the protagonist of Dr. Jones's adventure, and it was not a shame for either side. What makes people wonder is why such a seemingly logical thing has to be watched by the audience for 19 years.

When Dr. Jones tasted holy water for his father, he gained immortality at the same time, but there was no instruction for use next to the holy water pool: this thing only protects against death, not for aging. Nineteen years have passed, and the invincible Dr. Jones can never stay out of the "time". Seeing his originally inflexible body climbing and dodging between the storage boxes, his slack muscles and his hunched back showing signs of old age, he felt pity for him. Dr. Jones is not 007, and he cannot continue his youth by changing actors. The humor, knowledgeable and dull, brave and clumsy, and even the crooked nose and mouth that Grandpa Ford endowed this character cannot be easily replaced by others, at least a lot of audiences are unwilling to replace them. Lu Zhi and Si Dao couldn't make Ford still pretend to be a prime-age Dr. Jones, and fortunately, it would not be too dislocated between fantasy and reality, past and present.

At this time, the third generation of Jones was born at this time, and Marianne's comeback was unexpected and reasonable. Unexpectedly, I thought that Dr. Jones would be like 007, and the women around him were different every episode. And now the old lover not only reunited after several separations, but also really entered the marriage hall. Because of Jones, Laura, and Professor Langdon, it was once thought that archaeologists were unmarried. After the monument falls, he is a human being, not a god. People who wander around like the wind must return to the warmth of their families in old age. It makes sense that the old man Marcos can only be turned into a statue to play the role of a clumsy and obtrusive old man, and the old Dr. Jones can only pose as a eccentric old man in the photo. Who else can our doctor accompany? How did the five-episode shooting plan, which was planned from the beginning, end? After all, Hollywood is compassionate and always wants to present everyone with joy and hope, so it is not surprising that the successor of the mantle and mantle appears. It's just that this kid is more than witty, lacks composure, and lacks knowledge. I don't know when it will be able to be named DR.

Just as Dr. Jones should not change people easily, Lu Zhi and Si Dao, who are manipulating the puppet line behind him, are also reluctant to let go, even though their creative fatigue has already been exposed. This can be seen in the small movements in the old stories that are surreptitiously placed in the camera. Some come from Dr. Joes' own experiences, like Marian being gagged with a cloth; his son smiling smugly while his dad's face is blank; the "trust me" mantra. Some are from other films made by these two men. The most obvious one is the shape of the alien at the end. If it is not imitating Guan Gong and Qin Qiong, it is the background of "Contact of the Third Kind" that everyone does not know - to Earth is looking for a comrade who has lost his head. Some call it a tribute to the past, I prefer to call it a memory.

Other than that, it's an Indiana Jones story. Good. It's a commercial, don't compare it with the yardstick for serious subjects. I'm sure the Hulk 2, Iron Man, and Superman Hancock that it released this summer are much more interesting. If it's more unsatisfactory than the previous episodes of the Jones series, it's probably because of love. Expecting to be full is not as delicious as a dessert after a meal.
