RIP, Indiana Jones Franchise

Let me start off my saying that I hold Raiders Of The Lost Ark as one of the greatest films of all time, and The Last Crusade is not too far behind.
(I'll keep this spoiler free)
As for the new "Indiana Jones" film, (and I'm not using quotes because it's a title), I believe that it is one of the worst movies I have ever seen in my life.
They thought this was a gift for the fans? I've been waiting my entire life for a new Indy movie, and I would GLADLY have waited for the rest of it. The plot is abysmal, the dialog is a joke, the action is dull, the CG is rampant, the climax is a NIGHTMARE, certain characters are an utter waste, the little "nods" to the previous movies are ridiculously tacked on, the ending is more of a nightmare than the climax, and...well, the only thing is a trainwreck.
I can count the good things on one hand.
Namely, that Cate Blanchett's character is surprisingly good.
So, in short, STAY AWAY. Go to Target, pick up a copy of Raiders and then never ever bother yourself with this new one again.

No, I do not recommend this movie.
