Top Gun: Maverick is the blueprint on how to make a legacy sequel. INDY 5 shouldve been a Fate of Atlantis movie with an adult Short Round as the co-lead. If it was an emotional and heartfelt last adventure with Indy and Short Round it wouldve done really well at the box office IMO, especially if it was crowdpleasing like Maverick.
Nobody wants to see their hero’s die or be destroyed - I mean I watched in horror to see Optimus Prime die on screen, I can even tell you how that felt. To see Luke be dismantled, or other characters be reduced by Disney is just a bad move.
Rule # 1 in marketing: Don't alienate your core audience.
The director even admitted to doing the exact thing that’s making these franchises bomb. He said he knew what the audience wanted to see and decided to do the opposite. Why do directors keep alienating audiences and expecting good results??
We had closure at the end of Last Crusade. The main characters literally rode off into the sunset.
The movie should have been Indy and Short Round going on one epic adventure to find the time device so that Indy could save his son. If not that then just have Indy, Short Round, Mutt and Marion all going off on a cool adventure together with Mutt finally inheriting the mantle. Any of those 2 options would have worked
I don't think it is so complicated. It is simply that the film is not what anyone wanted. We wanted an Atlantis Indy film. We wanted an Emperor's Tomb movie. We wanted a movie by people who understand the character of Indiana Jones (not just the costume). Just because Hollywood thinks they have something that will get people's money, doesn't make people just run out and see it if we can all tell it is going to be dumb.
I think a big issue is sequels period. I’m not talking about more movies. We are fine with ongoing Bond movies but tying characters to specific actors are fine for a while but can be crippling after a while.
I feel like a big part of it is also the way Disney has handled legacy characters recently. I haven’t seen many ads for the new movie but I don’t have faith it’ll be good so I’ll wait for Disney+. If Disney doesn’t wanna respect what some of these characters mean to people then why should we care to show up and see it?
