Movie: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
Plot: That crazy professor/archaeologist is at it again, this time he has a kid and there are Russians and aliens are involved.
I'm Okay With: The fact that in the opening scene, Indy escapes from the Russians despite being really old and being shot at from point blank range. The fact that Indy survived a nuclear blast by hiding in a lead-lined fridge and then surviving in that same fridge after it was through the air really far away. The fact that the studio cast the anti-Harrison Ford to play his son (Shia LeBeouf). The fact that Indy's son manages to not get impaled while sword fighting against the evil Russian lady despite having no sword training whatsoever. And I don't understand why a lot of people weren't happy about the plot being about aliens when the last three movies involved a box that could melt people's faces, a stone that could allow the bad guy to rip out still-beating hearts, and a cup that grants immortality. Speaking of which......
I'm Not Okay With: In the last movie (ironically named The Last Crusade), Indy and his father successfully hunt down the Holy Grail. After finding it, both drink from it which gives them immortality meaning they cannot die. However, in the newest movie, they come right and say that Indy's father is dead. How?!? The guy literally cannot die, so how did he die? Was he hit by a train? Did he eat lit dynamite to see if it could kill him and it worked? Was it death by being over sexed by a hundred centerfolds (most likely scenario)? Seriously, how can an immortal man die? I am not okay with this.
