148. Death at a Funeral (2007)
Other Means
I was really taken by surprise at how funny this movie ended up being, I don't that this is worth seeking out but worth a viewing that requires little effort.

147. Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)
In Theaters
So I really liked this movie, the rest of the review is in inviso-text that you will have to highlight to read because it contains spoilers.
So for most of the film things are going the right way to a really good movie, and what you would expect from an Indy adventure, but at a point later in the movie they take a hard right which leads to the most unimpressive ending of all the Indy series. What the hell do UFO's and Aliens have to do with Indy? But it does have the required amount of action scenes to be considered an Indy movie.

146. Speed Racer (2008)
In Theaters (DLP Screening)
I had really low expectations going into this movie because I saw the first trailer and thought the movie looked awful, and is yet another reason why I like to avoid trailers as much as possible because I really ended up enjoying this movie. You'll quickly forget any comparisons to Spy Kids that the trailers may have brought to mind because the script and super stylized word will hold your attention. I have to admit though, either you buy the style or you don't, but seriously thought, if you can't enjoy this silly movie on some level your clearly operating at level of seriousness that I can't comprehend. This movie is tons of fun, but make sure you go to a late night/ early afternoon screening so you don't have to children, because they can suck the fun out of all living things.

Yes, children do suck the fun out of all things. Especially dog fighting. By the way, I was not impressed w/ Indy. Every other fucking scene there was a little nod or wink to some iconic scene/thing/person from one of the other films. It was the worst example of a sequel-for-a-sequel's-sake in living memory. And, christ on the motherfucking cross, aliens!? We can only hope Ford will break a hip and there will be no more of these.
