Why didn't the Soviets go after the Ark?

It was inside the warehouse! 😱

Or did they took it? hmm

I don't think they knew it was there or even notice it.

Besides, in Communist tradition religion is opium to the people. Why bring a box of opium to Russia? 😉

hehehe...

because it was already done in indy 1 and besides, what good is it if all it does is kill whomever opens it?

It would have saved everyone the embarassment of the rest of the movie.

it was just an over the top nod to Indy 1... an unneeded one

A nice one though. TLC had one.

Yeah, I think they did their homework on the Ark; it wouldn't be worth it.

it would have made more sense than stupid aliens skulls

hehehe

It wasn't too bad though. I dreaded the references most, but it was not really in your face.

how much more in your face could you be with for instance the flesh eating ants that walked out of the set of The Mummy (number 3 I think?) and walked right up the set of Indy IV

I meant references to previous Indy films. The Mummy thing is just ironic, the original copying the copy.

I didn't mind those, but those "ironic" things were annoying the heck out of me. I was there with someone else and I told her I heard the movie was copied from the comic book Tintin and the solar temple. I have read it ages ago so didn't know exactly. But I hadn't told her so she was guessing the entire time which movie or book was copied. If you pay attention to it, you get a lot of things they copied!

Which is not a bad thing per se.... as long as it is done right.

Yeah, thats how I feel. This isn't the best Indiana Jones movies. It was fun and exciting enough for me. I liked the mystery the film kept all the way to the end.
