Indiana Jones movies in general, would be better without fantasy/sci-fi elements. Still room for plenty of action, adventure, history and entertainment. Still of course I am happy with the original three.

Ruddo you are the turd because dude you started a time travel thread.
Yeah but that shit doesn’t belong in Indiana Jones. The franchise already jumped the shark with the last one but yikes

For real. The ark of the covenant opens up and spirits melt peoples faces? Fine by ruddo
Henry Jones Sr drinks from the holy grail and heals his injuries? Fine by ruddo
The crystal skulls are aliens? Too much for ruddo
The dial of Archimedes is a math equation for time? Too much for ruddo


I think maybe he just has a Christian bias

The aliens and time travel don't bother me. I always felt like he could run into all kinds of crazy things, not just Jesusy things. Has to be done right of course.

On a related note, I don't get people who insist that he fight Nazis in every movie either. Commies and cultists are fine enemies.
