The film only opened with $130 million worldwide, which is less than the $139 million that the box office bomb The Flash managed to earn. Furthermore, the Indiana Jones sequel is said to have cost more than $300 million to make with marketing costs, while The Flash was estimated at $250 million. Either way, both films appear to be box office bombs, with the fifth Indiana Jones film making even less at the box office so far.

      That would actually be a cool movie. Filmed straigth were indy a d his geriatric friends are suffering in an asylum. And thete seems to be some conspiracy so they try to investigate. But they are old and weak and have lots of restrictions. As the story advances it seems more and more likley that the retirment home is run by a wierd cult that worships some elder relic. Eventually at the climax it turns out the old men are justsenile and imagining things.

        The other day I was reminded of a bit on Castle Super Beast where they proposed a sequel to the Tony Hawk's Underground series (commonly abbreviated THUG). The sequel is called Tony Hawk's Existential Nightmare, where an older Hawk is just going place to place being told occasionally that he looks like Tony Hawk, and eventually he needs to do the 900 again but he can't. He wipes out, gets up, retrieves his board, and goes to try again. The next time he wipes out, he gets up a little slower, giving the board the chance to roll a bit further, and he limps a little more. Then again, and again, as the edges of his vision fray and the sound of the increasingly-dispirited little audience gets more and more distant. They only realized at the end that their new title abbreviates to "THEN".

        Bubba Hotep was pretty fun - Elvis and JFK are both alive in a retirement home, when a passing train delivering spooky relics to the museum crashes and a mummy is released.
