I wonder is Shia is old enough/with it enough to recognize this:
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull performed/was received much like the other sequels to Raiders of the Lost Ark were.... to mixed reviews and a rung or two down from the top spot at the US box office.
Both Temple of Doom* and Last Crusade received less favorable reviews than Raiders. Both were beaten at the domestic box office by other flicks: Ghostbusters in 1984 and Batman in 1989.
*In fact, I maintain that the initial reaction and backlash that Temple of Doom received from critics/fans in 1984 was much more harsh and negative than anything the small segment of modern day internet fanboys can whip up for Crystal Skull. Can you imagine the ill talk about Willie and Short Round that would have occured had the internet been around?
