Indiana Jones 5
Be My Head:
And they were hardly even in the movie.

You see though, that's kind of the problem. When the Ark of the Covenant melted people it wasn't terribly surprising because the fact that it melted people was the whole damned reason the Nazis wanted it. People will believe fantastic things as long as it seems plausible within the context of the movie's conventions. The idea that the Ark wasn't something to be tampered with was established early in Raiders. But in IJ4 Introducing aliens to the mix surprised people and held no real pay off since it didn't recontextualize or reinforce things that happened previously in the series. Personally, it didn't really bother me that much but I could see how it would really bug some people, particularly since many people are a lot more willing to accept supernatural phenomena of the spiritual variety than of the sci-fi variety. I mostly just missed beating up Nazis and thought the movie was a bit stale in general. I'm super picky about my action movies though. I basically like Raiders, Aliens and Die Hard. Oh, Mad Max is pretty OK and I really liked the first two Terminators.
