There should be a reverse Indiana Jones film where a South American tribe sneaks into the Vatican, steals some relics, and gets away on a boat while a bunch of men in golden robes shake their fists and shout their strange language.
@ZachWeinersmith Interesting! Beats the same old formulaic plot in every Indiana Jones film. These franchises need something different. https://shannoncuthrell.substack.com/p/entertainments-nostalgia-addiction

The entertainment industry is churning out recycled relics of our childhoods. Are we really out of ideas?

@shannoncuthrell @ZachWeinersmith Rudely, I do not have time to read the article right now and am commenting anyway -- the IJ movies were *intended* to use the pacing and tropes of old serials, so the oldness is the point. The formula needs updating, but not for the IJs. Which are done now anyway.
