Though I am on record as not being a big fan of this installment (though I do like big parts of it), I have no problem with the Alien angle. For me, they fall into more-or-less the same category as Gods and other supernatural forces seen in the prior films, so that was no issue for me. And it did reflect the progression in timeframe - the serieals done/set in the 30's often dealt with the supernatural, often while fighting Nazi's. The serials set or made in the 50's dealth with Commies and Aliens, so it seemed a natural progression to me.

I was at Blockbuster the other day, and found this amazing Indiana jones collector's case for the movies. It's made of resin, and it's a battered old suitcase, with Indy's jacket, and whip draped over it, with his hat sitting on top. Despite the photo in the link, it does not come with the films.

It was for this reason, and this reason alone, that I broke down and got the second and fourth Indiana Jones Movies. I managed to sit through the latest one in the Theater, but felt no desire to see it again. One good thing though... I didn't feel nearly as ripped off by it as I did by "The Temple of Doom".
ps: The Collector's Case had been originally priced at $39,95, but I got it for $10, still in the box! The salesman said it was priced at Cost. Woo-hoo!

That's a friggin deal.

Yup... for once, I was lucky. They had two left. One was damaged and on display. The other.... Mine!
