It's set in the 60s but supposedly involves time travel. Indy is a globetrotter and runs into all kinds of people. The villains could be anybody. ANYBODY from human history. But nope, Nazis again. It's so lazy. If it were Soviets again it would have made perfect sense.
really the answer is people went into it not wanting to like it, because they were mad at the concept, and it was an early, memorable, and silly thing to latch onto. there is far far far stupider shit in that movie.
>there is far far far stupider shit in that movie
I was working in a pub kitchen and we were allowed to watch TV during slow hours. Crystal Skull came on and I remember the manager shaking his head in disgust when Shia was swinging with the monkeys through the jungle
This never triggered me, it was amusing and not too unrealistic by the standards of Indy films. The aliens did piss me off, they felt wrong for the genre.

It was just the thing people remember as being really stupid and if I remember the media was making a big point of it too. The fridge scene is sort of the JarJar of this movie. Yeah its stupid but, its its far from the only problem and taking it out wouldn't have suddenly made it a good movie
Even if the fridge protected him from the radiation, it wouldn't have saved him from the heat or force of impact
it's my headcanon that drinking from the grail is what actually protected him from the blast
Its moronic in two ways like this guy says
Yes the raft in temple of doom is moronic but that was only moronic in one way
>wouldn't have saved him from the heat
it's a fridge. They are made to withstand heat
The primary killing force of a nuke is the heat, the radiation doesn't do shit until after the explosion
Because Indy is old and sad looking and nobody asked for a 4th movie.
These, "let's just do it before it's too late." movies are the worst thing to happen to media. But it's really just a cash grab by greedy Heebs.
Nor for a 5th. But it's coming and of course the villains are Nazis. AGAIN.
Indy hates these guys.
Who cares?

Nazis are the nostalgic choice and nostalgia is the only thing an Indy film could possibly offer us at this point.
Wait, how? Is indie 80 years old in 1930s now?
time travel shenanigans
why didnt the japanese buy more fridges
Why didn't more Americans practice climbing into fridges during the Cold War
why didn't Frodo just take the fridge to Mordor
Why didn't Mordor just nuke Gondor

>Shia was swinging with the monkeys through the jungle
That's my main gripe as well. Aside from Indy being an out of shape old man.
japs blown the frick out again

it's so moronic that it's actually fricking kino
I didn't really think it was a big deal. It was maybe a bit too pulpy.

Both my parents suffocated to death in a refrigerator. Thanks for bringing up the bad memories butthole.

He had pillows inside there with him
I thought it was the most memorable part of the movie. Didn't have a problem with it at all. idk.
pop culture fandoms tend to form massive rage mobs about dumb shit which you fixate on like SHEEP!!!
