Off the top of my head?
Dean Cundey. Yeah, definitely.

Oh, Kaminski's stuff is actually pretty great- Lost World, A.I., War Of The Worlds- all those were visual treats IMO. He just don't copy other looks well.
And Minority Report looked like go-se, but he was probably told to do that. I blame The Matrix.

I'm a huge fan of Minority Report. After Shindler's List I'd say it's his best work. In terms of Indy 4 - I'd go for Emmanuel Lubezki or Serenity's own Jack Green - He knows his onions...

I WANTED to like that movie SO much, but I just can't. I liked War Of The Worlds, and I REALLY liked A.I., but MR just kinda rubbed me the wrong way, mainly in the ending...
Oh well, we USUALLY agree on stuff, so the occasional divergence here n' there ain't no big thang, eh?

Odd, since they really don't look much alike. MR, and Kaminski's look overall owes more to stuff like Japanese horror to me (desaturated, the blooming, milky whites and such).

"I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him."

I just meant that Matrix went green, then MR went white, and now Book Of Eli went all sepia...

The Indy films have always been a source of fun and silliness. I have enjoyed everyone of them very much! Can't wait ta see the next ones!

Oh I couldn't deal with A.I. I never give up on films but that one I came really close... It improved towards the finalé but I didn't like it at all.

As you say it aint so bad for us to disagree on occasions :D We differ with Lost too by the way....
