SFist TV writer, SFGate Culture Blogger (and, for those of you who like dead trees, her weekly TV picks on on the cover of the Chron's TV section Sunday) Rain Jokinen has a great chronicle of her relationship with the Indiana Jones movies on her Musty TV blog:

After the (Last Crusade) screening we had to fill out comment cards and despite wanting to say "How come you made two kinda crappy sequels to an awesome movie?" the only thing I remember writing was something like, "Why was that old dude all happy that his cave was being turned to rubble at the end?" I don't think any changes were made as a result of that insightful commentary. Also, for the record, there's no need to worry about dim bulbs, people talking, or the sound being too low when George Mutherfuckin' Lucas is sitting in the theater with you.

It's times like these we really miss the Coronet, because we would have gone to see "Crystal Skull" like, three times already if that place were still open -- it was just the place to see event movies like this, wasn't it? (Sniff) Otherwise, maybe we'll take off early today and catch it somewhere way less fun.

Shaking off what might have been, how about you? Any good stories on seeing the past Indy films? Have you seen the new one, or are you going to?
