How much would I have to pay you to display this crystal skull in your home?

Categories: Art, Indiana Jones

Crystalskull_lI just got a press release about tomorrow’s DVD release of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and apparently Best Buy is offering a "gift set with replica crystal skull from Sideshow Collectibles and a $25 gift card to Sideshowcollectibles.com." Add two zeroes to that figure (and make it cash), and yeah, I could find a spot on my mantelpiece for the hideous noggin. You?

    this is quite dope! sideshow collectibles rocks but its too expensive… sadly i aint buyint this dvd let alone the gift set

  • Eric Friedmann

    The real question is – how much would you have to pay me to even get me to buy the DVD of this bad movie?

  • Crystal

    $300 a month cash for as long as I had to display it. Gives me the willies!!

    At first, I thought you said how much I’d pay for it instead of how much you’d let someone pay me. For the former, I could go as high as $20; which is a little ironic, since it costs more than the movie itself (which, past the first half hour, Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull was a borefest). But hell, I’d take it for free. Even if the movie wasn’t that great, the thing still looks pretty sleek as a decoration piece.

    The skull is okay…. but that stand is horrendous!

    If I’m going to have a tacky piece of movie memorabilia in my house, I’d at least like for it to be from a good movie.
    The Crystal Skull isn’t even in the top 3 items I’d display on my mantle.
    1. The idol from “Raiders.”
    2. The fancy/faux Holy Grail from “Last Crusade”, which would set me up for multiple “I chose poorly” jokes.
    3. The real/humble Holy Grail from “Last Crusade.”

    *Top 3 items from Indy movies I’d display on my mantle, is what I meant to say.

  • Robert

    I’d need to be paid at least five figures to display something that reminds me of that terrible movie in my pop culture-filled home.

  • aps

    it’s actually not a bad halloween decoration. if you surround it with other….halloween crap it would be a half decent little piece.

  • kyle

    I’d rather have the crystal skull in my house than the actual movie! What a let down the ending of Indy 4 way.

  • egage

    How disappointing. Feels like a last ditch sales-pitch to get people to buy a DVD of a movie that was a tragic endcap to an amazing trilogy. Why not offer something from one of the prior three movies — like a replica fertility statue from Raiders — at least then people might care.

  • Raven_Moon

    $2500 sounds good to me, Sleazak! That thing is pretty ugly, though & it would just remind me of how awful the movie was. Honestly, there are much prettier glass or plastic skulls in the world.

  • Raven_Moon

    Whoops! I meant Slezak. Sorry!

  • Em

    $25,000 and an all-expenses-paid Mediterranean cruise.

  • laura

    I would do it for FREE …

  • Mister G

    Lucas and Spielberg can both stick this damn skull where the sun don’t shine. ever have a bunch of kids ruin your trilogy???

    Anything less than $100 a day and I’m “displaying” it on the shelf in my closet!

  • Rich

    That depends, would I be allowed to spray paint rude things about the movie on it?

  • Snsetblaze

    I’d display it for free, especially now, if it was given to me, but I would not buy it.

  • Stephanie T.

    It looks like Alien. I can picture it on a Halloween night with a glow in the dark stick as a light, being set by a window. I can’t picture it on a mantle. It’s too creepy.

  • MD

    I rather have a real crystal skull like the ones for sale at CrystalSkulls.com

Because the kindness and warmth in your Website can make me completely relaxed and happy. I hope that you will visit my blog too to see if you can have the same feeling.http://www.buynikeshoes.com
