Those aren’t big birds sweetheart! They’re giant vampire bats!

In yesterday’s episode I mentioned not being impressed by the latest Indiana Jones movie, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. It was one of those rare films that is bad enough that I don’t want to dissuade anyone else from seeing it because of how satisfying it is to make fun of it. So by all means, go see it.

Before you do, though, take another look at the title of the film and decide how good you think it could be. Now take it down a couple notches and insert Ewoks and you’re getting warmer.

Anyway, I had the pleasure last night of being greeted by none other than Harrison Ford when I was searching for the start time for Friday’s game vs. the Rockies. That’s him, dressed as his most famous character, taking up more than half of the May 22nd box on the Cubs.com schedule for May.

It appears that every MLB club is in on the Indiana Jones calendar ad, an ad that is simply supposed to be a reminder that the movie was released at midnight on Thursday May 22nd. To those of us that braved those two hours of so-called filmmaking, though, the ad is more like a giant rubber snake that we irrationally fear.

Eat your heart out, George Lucas.
