Indiana Jones and the Ruination of Hollywood

or, How CGI, Sequels, and Auteurs Are NOT to Blame but Laziness, Lack of Innovation, and Cowardice IS. This final installment of the Indiana Jones series sums up pretty much EVERYTHING that is said to be wrong about Hollywood. It is over-reliant on CGI, is yet another sequel, and was badly directed. Moreover, it was unbelievably woke and presented a complete diminution of Harrison Ford as a hero or a movie star. And it is all Kathleen Kennedy's fault. The last is the only thing that is entirely. The rest are debatable. Let's frame this problematic film in in what it REALLY means about present day Hollywood.

Spoiler alert: The movie itself is a MUCH better send-off of the iconographic character than Crystal Skull, especially if you saw the entire series in real time. Fight me!
