Re: I don't get the alien hate

[mekkio]

You don't see the difference with wanting to keep a fantasy adventure series and a fantasy adventures series and not a sci-fi one? Well, how about instead of Frodo sneaking into Mount Doom, would it have been better if he had just stomped in inside an At-At? No. Because sci-fi and fantasy are different genres.

I can speak only for myself, but as an Indiana Jones fan, I loved that they dealt with mythology, namely God and gods. I don't want aliens. I want magic not technology. I would have liked it if they had made it about the Inca gods. There are so many stories to mine from. Instead, they made it about something that has nothing to do with Inca mythology. Aliens. There are no aliens in Inca mythology. And don't give that bull of, "Well, the Inca people could have mistaken aliens for Inca gods." No, that's not mythology. That just making up stuff and putting on a modern twist. I want old. I want to be able to look up the mythology and go, "Oh, so that is that god does."

ONE DOES NOT SIMPLY AT-AT INTO MORDOR!

No seriously, I'd pay hard cash to see that.

Or they could have just gotten the giant birds to fly them there.

Re: I don't get the alien hate

But that missed the point of the books. It was a war between kingdoms of men. (Or humanoids if you want to include the Orcs and Hobbits.) Nature stepped out of it until the dark side started threatening nature. That's why the Eagles did not fly Frodo into the mountain. They were, "Nope. Not our fight. We're Swiss in this war."

I like your idea a lot better than what we ultimately got. :(

Re: I don't get the alien hate

Sci-fi and fantasy are definitely different genres, but there's nothing inherently wrong with mixing the two.

As a fellow mythology buff, I can see where you're coming from with your other point, though.

Re: I don't get the alien hate

[mekkio]

It's not wrong if you started doing that in the first film. If the Ark of the Covenant turned out to be an alien artifact, that no one would be complaining about that aspect in The Crystal Skulls. But that's not what happened. The movies when from, fantasy, fantasy, fantasy, sci-fi. Which is jarring and goes against the narrative that was set up in the first three movies.
