Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

07/03/23 • 87 min

On this weeks episode, I review the newest installments of a classic franchise, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. Harrison Ford is back with his hat and whip to fight some nazi's again, and I give you my first reactions to how well this movie fits in with the franchise. I brought back Greg Rucinski, who happens to be a huge Indiana Jones fan. He brought me a Steven Spielberg classic, Close Encounters of the Third Kind. And we go off in a rabbit hole of our thoughts on Aliens.
