You’re absolutely right, Natalie. I’ve corrected it in the post. The first mention was for July, the second for June. But the event is on Thursday, July 10. Thanks for the clarification.

Hi there my name is Martin I have living in San Diego for 5 years, I’m from Lima – Peru (the capitol), I love your magazine I think is the perfect magazine to have contact with concerts, shows and what’s going on in San Diego. Well this post is just to say that I’m really disappointed with Indiana Jones 4 is a nonsense and crappy film for me, with many historical mistakes of course, one of them is that in Peru there is no Mayan pyramids style or whatever, also there are Mayan warriors appear or something like that in this film, so who was the person who advised them on this issue???, another point is why sounds mariachi music background when they arrival in Cuzco?? I think is a lack of respect for a culture what has in many ways nothing in common with what Mexico culture is, I know this is just a film and also that has a entertainment destination, but they must be make sure and focused in historical and music data, maybe they could have put Sumac’s music (a great female singer of all the times) or something like that you know, what is more consistent with culture and reality of Peru.

PD: Anybody knows how could I have contact with someone who has had responsibility with this movie?

You’re absolutely right about having to see it with a crowd–watching it on your own doesn’t come close to the experience of seeing it in a theater full of people going out of their minds, cheering, throwing popcorn and all the rest. Plus the guys do a Q&A afterwards so it’s kind of like a live DVD ‘making-of’ extra. I interviewed Chris Strompolis, Eric Zala and Eli Roth about the film for a book I wrote about fan films that’s coming out this summer (“Homemade Hollywood: Fans Behind The Camera”), and while the movie itself is great, it doesn’t hold a candle to the real-life story of how they made it and how wild coincidences involving Roth brought it to the public 15 years later. The story is so nuts, it took up a whole chapter all by itself. Anyway, I can’t recommend this movie enough to people–if you like Indiana Jones, you’ll love this flick.
