What's with the hate for the nuke fridge? that was the most creative and awesome scene in the whole movie.

It was when the movie went bad.
Really bad.

the movie was mediocre at worst, whiners imo.
Seriously. Who are we to expect a good Indiana Jones movie in the age of teeny boppers and cgi tomfoolery?

People just like to bitch, look at the thing with the gophers for that. I didn't even know it was really a big to do until I looked at this thread. It wasn't a great movie, but it was watchable and about as good as anyone should have expected given the state of things.
No it's just something that you, as an 18 year old, cannot simply understand at this moment. A couple of months ago I was talking to a 19 year old chick that told me the first movie she ever saw as a kid was the Peter Jackson LOTR movie. I automatically felt like an old man.
See, when you grow up with a series (Star Wars, Die Hard, Rambo) you come to expect certain things with each and every inevitable sequel. Usually they fall flat of the first one (Every horror movie sequel ever made).
Nowadays with Hollywood churning out so many remakes and relaunches and reimaginings they've stopped really giving a shit. These remakes and relaunches weren't made for fans of yore. They were made for shit-eating ritalin-fueled kids. For every Casino Royale or Batman Begins we get Prom Night, Halloween and Black X-Mas. Most are disposable right off the bat but when you begin to approach respected franchises you need to start treating them with respect.
Adding gophers, Shia LeBeef and the best Harrison Ford stunt double that money can buy was a horrible call for Indy 4. This movie shouldn't have been made, period.
If you can't make a sequel that doesn't even top the weakest entry of the series then just stop and leave it alone.
Indy 4 wasn't made for it's original fans much like the new Star Wars prequels weren't made for them. They were made for kids. I'm glad you enjoyed Indy 4 but don't get upset when people tell you they suck. It isn't whining, it's serious criticism.
"Chuy, you're going to have a magical life. Because no matter where you go, it's always going to be better than Tucson."
This right here is the problem. Because a lot of movies suck today, we shouldn't expect anything new to be good?
You sir, are a hideous hermaphroditical character which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.

Well said.
