Well, who's the more inexplicable - movie defenders who like given movies, and wish to continue to enjoy them, or movie detractors who not only dislike the same movies, but wish to prevent others from liking them?
I ask because it frequently seems as though the people who continually carp about Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull here (among various movies discussed in various forums), perhaps understandably dissatisfied with being disappointed with a movie (especially when others like it), somehow feel compelled to do whatever they can to diminish others' enthusiasm for it, so that no-one will like it, and everybody can be equally disappointed with it. While I can understand their frustration at being hugely disappointed by a movie they really wanted to love (as a general Lucasfilm fan I've already been down this road with Star Wars, and similarly I'm already dreading what I fear may be a colossal letdown with the next Star Trek movie, though I hope I'm wrong), I don't think there's anything particularly admirable about going out of one's way to try to ensure the movie is as ruined for everyone else as it is for oneself.
That's not to suggest the movies should be unassailable by legitimate criticism or anything like that, but it really does seem that a huge number of posts by some of the latest Indy adventure's detractors here have no real aim other than spoiling whatever joy the movie's admirers / defenders here were able to glean from it.
