Re: I don't get the alien hate

I hate Judeo-christian references in movies like I am Legend. Hate them, because not only I don't believe, but it's taking itself so seriously that it looks like everybody should really believe it (and also, the initial story didn't have them and did perfectly fine without).

I don't have a problem with it in Indiana Jones because 1) it's treated as magic 2) it's for fun 3) it doesn't exclude other religions to work, too. It works within the IJ universe as it's described.
Aliens might have worked, if it was the only improbable thing in it.

My main issue with IJ4 is that it kept piling up unbelievable, badly CGI-created and unnecessary action scenes, without anything worth being called a screenplay...
Like 90% of the other actions movies produced at the same time, and without the humor or right balance of elements there were in the franchise before. And I have an issue with those movies too, except that after I realized that even Peter Jackson doesn't bother to have a scenario to jack off to his CGI-filled action scenes, I simply avoid them in general.

I'll tell you what : The Mummy was a better 4th Indiana Jones movie than Indiana Jones 4.


So really, I find it insulting that you narrow down the problem of Indiana Jones 4 to "some people can't take something else than Judeo-Christian God in it".
