What next, we begin treating them as valid historical commentaries? I watch Indiana Jones for a good bit of cult classic entertainment. That's what I expect, that's what it delivers, and good times are had all 'round. Though I have to agree the vine-swinging was a bit much.

In previous installments, we had things that were at least fairly plausible. If we were Mythbusters, we'd probably say that falling from the plane with the raft was *plausible* based on what kind of surface you landed on, etc. Maybe I'm giving them too much credit. But still, for the most part, the stuff Indy did was mostly at least plausible. There is no f'ing way a human being climbs into a refrigerator, gets blown up by a NUCLEAR EXPLOSION, falls from the sky to hit solid ground, rolls down a hill and survives. It's not the least bit plausible. They did it for the sake of doing it, and damn the plausibility of it. Consider this, though.
