Sounds like Disney doesn't have faith in its own movie.
When will they figure out to find out what the majority of the fans want, and not just guess.

I literally just saw a commercial while reading this from Applebees that if you spend $35 you get a free ticket to Indy 5...lol

They are really desperate.
Was there EVER a fifth sequel in a franchise that was good???
Well, other than The Great William Shatner’s Opus, of course.

Star Wars: Episode V, The Empire Strikes Back
You win the internet for today.
Let's say that psychologically, Disney/Lucasfilm needs Indy 5 to break the $100 million over the opening weekend. How many $milions more does that add to the deficit? If you assume that (on average) any one ticket is $10 USD and you are trying to game the system by giving the opening weekend box office a $30 million artificial bump, then you are:
1) Buying 3,000,000 tickets to give away, and...
2) Spending $30 million USD to do so.
Think about that. In my hypothetical scenario, Disney/Lucasfilm could GIVE a "free" Indy 5 ticket to one in every 13 Canadians to go see the film, OR one in every 111 U.S. residents.
You know, I haven't been to Applebee's in quite a while. But, for good reason.

It's like, what one person is going to spend $35 on a meal at Applebee's? So, you bring a friend, a date or whatever. Now that you've spent over $35 you get your free ticket...one, which means you still need to purchase another ticket if you plan on going together...oh darn, which means you'll spend $50 just on some drinks and a bucket if popcorn. Do they think we're really that gullible to spend all that money to see Indy 5? Not a chance. Coming to a $3 Walmart dump bin near you.

Neither doomy or mike. The news has come up over several entertainment websites now and clownfish also did a video about it.
I ate there sometime this year. You do not need to ever eat at Applebee's...
I did see some "news" about Kathleen Kennedy saying it's possible that Phoebe Waller-Bridge could take over the Indy franchise. Remember when Disney/Lucasfilm and James Mangold were screaming how everyone was wrong and would never pull a bait and switch?

It ONLY broke that cycle because it was the 2nd one made and only labeled part V at the time.
Its funny though.
I'm finding it more believable that a bait and switch was the original plan and ultimate reason for the extensive re-shoots.

Holy Hilarity. Please…please let this really happen.
I have the titles to suggest for the first movie in the series:
Helena Shaw And The Raiders of the Lost Franchise
…or…
Helena Shaw And The Magical Kingdom of Box Office Poison

Oh, I’m sure of that, given your consistently good taste and rational comments. My previous statement is general advice for anyone and everyone who’s listening.
Not watching this. Don’t care. Waste of time and energy. Remember it as it was, and let it all burn.
