    No.
  • Seth
    No.

    But if I liked the movie, I'd go with Best Buy. How much is that one running for?
  • Jef Costello
    YES
  • StarBlazer101
    Definetly the one with the Crystal Skull replica.
  • Rosario
    Im renting it, but I would get either the steelcover or the one from Target. Knowing Best Buy their going to want $40+ and that stupid gift card is uselss.
  • joshua
    I already wasted my money in the theater, no chance in hell I'm buying the dvd.
  • Daniel
    who would buy that movie.... it was so bad...
  • Jud
    I think I'll buy the cheapest version just so I can damage it. I couldn't really go up and punch the screen while it was playing in the theatre, no matter how bad I wanted to. Maybe I'll put the DVD in, watch it for 30 minutes and then leave, just like I did when I went to see it in theatres. What a horrible piece of crap, its so sad.
  • cjstearns
    why would you even post this filth?
  • Logan
    Nope, sure wont be buying this pathetic excuse for an Indiana Jones movie. Won't even take a copy if it was free.
  • Ohiofile
    Who's selling the Nuked 'Fridge edition with full-sized collectible 50's style nuclear shield refrigerator and CGI gophers? I'll take that one.
  • Who cares?? This movie was a pile of shit, fanboys just refuse to accept it. If this was any other film than Indy, we'd be ignoring it.
  • edog
    This movie played on my personal player on a loop on a recent DC to San Francisco flight. I watched most of it twice, but both times fell asleep before the end. Twice, in one sitting, I couldn't be bothered to stay awake for the end. I literally have no idea how this movie ends.

    One thing I do know, however, was that the Shia-Tarzan scene was as gratuitously dumb as the "there's always a bigger fish" submarine sequence from Star Wars Episode I. In Crystal Skull, it was a black spot on an otherwise cool chase scene. In Phantom, it was a waste of film and time, and probably a low in the careers of Ewan McGregor and Liam Neeson.

    Suffice to say, I won't be buying it off the homeless guy on the sidewalk, much less any deluxe editions.
  • you guys all probablly really loved Die Hard 4. Crystal Skull kicked ass. Im definately getting the Best Buy version.
  • Lee
    Ohiofile - that's brilliant and I'd almost consider getting that addition when it hit the bargain bin!
  • Stoned One
    No!

    Buying a copy of that is like giving money to a Satan. You wouldn't give money to Satan, would you?

    (I love using religious arguments against people, no way to refute.)
  • ezekial
    I never started watching the Indy series until this one so...regular 2-Disc. I know many of you were disappointed, and I was, too...for the fact that it was an INDIANA JONES movie. If anything else, it definitely was not that bad.
  • D
    the haters are just letting 3 certain scenes ruin the whole experience. fridge/aliens/monkeys. the movie is great if you can let those not bother you. it did take me a couple viewings. i'm def buying it. i'm not sure what though. the skull replica is cool but too expensive
  • B33
    Beats Iron Man by a long shot.
  • dlb
    no rush to get anything but it won't sit with my indy trilogy
  • thomas040
    Why would anyone want to spent money on this?
  • Trebek
    Nope.
  • Luis
    Rape! (According to South Park)
  • Seth
    To Luis:

    Indy's screams were hilarious hahahah
  • bob
    hopefully indy getting raped is not in the special features

    (South Park lol)

    either way i'm not buying it
  • Anthony
    I will be buying the Best Buy version.

    I loved this movie... and hate everyone who hated it.

    It was a 2 hour movie that had plenty of action and comedy.

    It was exactly like all of the other Indiana Jones movies.

    It was a fictional story based on fictional characters.

    And to the people who walked out of it... why comment on a movie you have never seen?

    I cannot wait for Indiana Jones 4.
  • 790
    I'll be getting the cheapest version possible. (Single Disc, no thrills)
  • spoilerkid
    i dont want to see the that movie on dvd nd ill wait till it comes out on starz or hbo its a waste of money how can indys partner die isnt he a main character oh u guys please check out my comments on spiderman 4,ironman 2,nd transformers 2, oright good spoilers itll answer all u guys questions about those three movies i personally kno jon favruau nd sam raimi nd stan lee
  • McGruff
    Anyone else find South Park incredibly uncomfortable? Funny parts, but the rape memories were just totally...no
  • fex
    I can't condone the movie but I want that skull.
  • matt
    well south park usually has episodes that make you feel uncomfortable. some examples: in scott tenorman must die, cartman fed scott his parents. in with apologies to jesse jackson, the n-word was used multiple times throughout the episode. enough examples, south park is an offensive show, but its freakin hillarious in my opinion. and tonights episode was great.

    anyways about this topic. no, indiana jones was raped not only in south park, but in real life. this movie was completely unnecessary and i don't want the dvd
  • Batman
    Damn I missed tonight's new south park... Alright I'll watch it after I get my shit done tomorrow, and to hell with crystal skull. It's right up there with Batman and robin.
  • McGruff
    Feeding the parents to scott was hilarious as was the other episode u mentioned. but this one just went...too far? I know thats what south park tries to do, but i think they had one "rape-flashback" too many haha. the one with the hillbillies was WAY wrong.
  • matt
    it was a spoof of the rape scene in deliverance if you want to know. every single rape scene was a spoof of a rape scene in a movie.
  • 790
    I find South Park amazing!
    Clearly the best writing in adult cartoons.


    Screw you guys !!!!
  • It's good to see that other people, including the creators of South Park, felt the same way I did after watching that movie.
  • Dr. Handsome
    I'm honestly confused as to why everyone hates this movie so much. It was an entertaining and clever action flick. Of course it's not Raiders but really, what other movie is? Seriously, if you guys set your standards this high we're never getting any sequels to anything ever.
  • McGruff
    haha yeah i thought i recognized it from somewhere (never saw deliverance but heard about it). what other movies were the scenes from?
  • The Real McCoy
    Wow.... I'm an Indy fanboy and I hated this piece of scum. I wish that Doc Brown would show up and him and I could go back in time and prevent this piece of trash from being made.
  • R_McCall
    I'll buy one of these in eight months when they're at the bottom of the bargain basement bin (that way I get my moneys worth).
  • I bought mine ages ago, during pre-order. It was released in Brazil on Ocotber 3rd.

    I'd choose the hard cover book.
  • I liked this flick. You guys are missing the point about the fridge and Tarzan bit and the rest--of course it's hokey. It's supposed to be! It's pretty clear from the start of Raiders--a guy gets chased by a big boulder in a cave in a forest--that if you don't buy into the ridiculous and choose to simply have fun, you've walked into the wrong movie series. And even if you hate it, look, it's better than 'Temple of Doom' (of course, what isn't?).

    As for the question, the Target edition, easy. Who needs a stupid nicknack alien skull--just more clutter. The Steelcase is tempting, but a book is a better deal.
  • I may buy this once it's available in the $5 Walmart Bargin Bin. Until then....PASS.
  • Harrison and Steve
    Waiting for the "Oxley rambling incoherent nonsense" edition with DVD commentary by Oxley and jar jar binks .
  • Kokushi
    I kind of liked the movie but i was expecting more, nuke frige, tarzan scene with Monkeys, waterfall, ruber snake, i dont mind CGI (LOTR, Transformers yes the CGI was awesome,Iron Man) but when the cgi looks fake as hell thats when the problem start.
  • giantyoda
    I want the one with the crystal skull so that I can use it to punish all the Indy-trolls with severe headaches and excessive ringing of the ears.
  • Heckle0
    NO NO NO.
    Will not be putting this "movie" along side the others on my shelf.
  • edog
    I forgot about the rubber snake. Awful.
  • Harrison and Steve
    giantyoda... that wont be necessary.

    the film was punishment enough.
  • What noting from Costco?
