Indiana Jone 5: Will there be a DeLorean?
Hi everyone, welcome to my channel where I share my thoughts on movies, TV shows, and pop culture. Today I want to talk about one of my favorite movie characters of all time: Indiana Jones. He is the ultimate adventurer, archaeologist, and hero who always manages to save the day and get the girl. But he also has some pretty bad moments that make me cringe, laugh, or both. Here are some of the worst moments of Indiana Jones in my opinion.
- The Temple of Doom opening scene: This is supposed to be a fun and exciting introduction to the movie, but it's also full of stereotypes and clichés. Indy is in a Shanghai nightclub, wearing a white tuxedo and flirting with a Chinese singer named Willie Scott. He exchanges a diamond for an ancient artifact with a gangster named Lao Che, but things go wrong and he ends up poisoning Indy. Indy then grabs Willie and escapes through a window, landing on a car driven by his sidekick Short Round. They drive to an airport, where they board a plane owned by Lao Che. The plane takes off, but the pilots bail out and leave Indy, Willie, and Short Round to crash in the Himalayas. This whole sequence is just ridiculous and over-the-top, and it doesn't fit with the tone of the rest of the series. It also portrays China and its people in a very negative and stereotypical way, which is not cool.
- The Temple of Doom monkey brains scene: This is another example of how this movie is insensitive and offensive to other cultures. Indy, Willie, and Short Round end up in a remote village in India, where they are welcomed by the locals who believe that Indy can help them recover their sacred stone that was stolen by an evil cult. They are invited to a feast, where they are served some exotic dishes that make Willie gag. The worst one is monkey brains, which are served in the skulls of the monkeys. This scene is supposed to be funny and gross, but it's also very disrespectful and ignorant. It implies that Indians are savages who eat disgusting things, which is not true at all. It also shows animal cruelty, which is not funny at all.
- The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull fridge scene: This is one of the most infamous scenes in the whole franchise, and for good reason. It's so bad that it spawned a term called "nuking the fridge", which means ruining something that was once good by adding something absurd or unrealistic. In this scene, Indy is in Nevada in 1957, where he stumbles upon a secret military base that is testing a nuclear bomb. He tries to escape, but he can't find a car or a shelter. He sees a lead-lined fridge in a nearby house and decides to hide inside it. The bomb goes off, and the fridge is launched into the air by the blast. It flies for miles and lands in the desert, where Indy emerges unharmed. This scene is so unbelievable and ridiculous that it breaks all suspension of disbelief. It also contradicts the established rules of the series, where Indy survives by his wit and skill, not by luck or magic. It also makes no sense that he would survive such an explosion without any radiation poisoning or injuries.
