This had a really good opener, it serves as rather a good example of tension in storytelling, now Indiana Jones has a very risky job filled with butyral and sabotage. He even nearly loses his wip once if I recall correctly, but then we realize that he also has a job as a lecturer. We then see that his live isn't always "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" We can finally chillax, and Jones in a different, yet similar, scenario. We can't have intense tension all the time, if you're writing, have scenes of little or no tension, your audience and characters will thank you dearly.

I didn't know there would be so many Nazis in this. I mean, I kinda knew there were Nazis, but not this many nazis.

There was a character whom I was a bit confused about, Marion Ravenwood (Super cool last name). Her and Dr. Jones once had some kind of romantic relationship, but he betrayed her for something. We don't know what he did, or what for, in this film, but we do know, that from Marion's end at least, they are Not on good terms. I kinda wish they told us what he did to warrant her hatred, but I guess that's a prequel for another time.

So this deals with the Ark of the Covonient, which is the sacred chest holding the 10 commandments Moses was given in the book of Exodus. Later on, this film deals with some trippy ghost stuff. of which I will not relay for the sake of my own sanity, but it involves alot of fire and alot of heads melting/exploding. Now, I kinda knew about the heads exploding via a supernatural force, but I kinda felt that the divine, Imma burn your entire face thing, should've been more clearly set up. Because it just sorta, happens.

This is loosely set up when in an early scene when talking about the AotC where it is suggested that God swept the city with a sandstorm. But this could also be interpreted as just a normal sandstorm and no divine or biblical connotations.

Oh, nearly forgot, a Nazi attacked a dog with a watermelon. Without an EXSESSIVLY violent analogy, there are no words to describe my anger.
