yeah its kinda silly but its just as crazy as the other movies.

Remember the one time in Temple of Doom where they jump out of the plane in an inflatable life raft, land on a giant mountain and slide down the side

Exactly. I think people just forget how silly the original ones were when this new one came out

No, but there is a vicious colony of big damn ants.

It's really not. You could argue that it's not as bad as people make it out to be, but it's not a good movie by any stretch of the imagination.

If we don't have a scene of kids in 50's clothes riding their car too fast while Hound Dog plays how will anyone know it's the 50's?

To be fair, it is a pretty forgettable movie. It's really just the fridge and killer ants people remember.

Second best Indiana Jones movie

I'm not even sure it's good enough to rate as the fourth best Indiana Jones movie.

Like, there are probably fan home films that are better.

And most of these probably outrank it as well:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_Young_Indiana_Jones_Chronicles_episodes#TV_films_(1994%E2%80%9396)

So... maybe 8th best Indiana Jones film?

On the plus side, it's probably still going to be better than the one they were planning to come out with next year or so.

It's a mediocre film in general, but it's terrible as an Indy film.

The only real positive it has going for it is production value and cinematography, but that should come as a given when Spielberg is involved and you have an almost $200 million budget.

Certainly not from the scenes of the college kids protesting, since that wasn't actually a thing that happened in the 50s.

It was pretty bad, but it had its moments. I always thought it was silly that it was criticized for the alien angle, like they forgot all the other movies had supernatural stuff happen, aliens is probably more realistic.

I saw it years ago after watching the original trilogy for the first time to prepare to watch it. I... didn't see any problems with the movie. Gotta agree with your opinion there, OP.

It is and isn't. While Indy has done some ridiculous things, they're generally less overtly ridiculous (ie, something you have to stop and think about, as opposed to immediately rejecting the fridge... although I love the scene right after the fridge)
