There are quite a few flaws with this movie, no doubt, but I've never understood why aliens is so taboo in an Indy movie. Can we discuss why it's not kosher? Indy shouldn't just be limited to religious artifacts, IMO. He's not a religious relic hunter, he's a pulp hero. In the more wild pulp stories, the protagonist encounters all sorts of wild things.
That said, I wish the "aliens" were handled in a more HP Lovecraft fashion. Not exactly "aliens" from outer space, but Old Beings, like the Great Old Ones. More sinister, darker, like Temple of Doom. Hopefully this could be worked into an Indy V if it ever comes out.
