The gophers.... Oh my gosh, what the heck?!? Once again, totally pointless & out of place in the context of the movie itself, & definately in the context of the series.


Simple comic relief. The first gopher hole we see is in place of the Paramount mountain. Just like in Raiders when we see that mountain in place of the Paramount mountain. I'm pretty sure they did the same thing in ToD and Last Crusade. Do gophers usually live in the desert? I'm not sure, but it didn't bother me that much.


They were prairie dogs! ;-)

The 'Meh':
- The warehouse sequence, especially seeing the Ark again. Not really necessary, and it kinda felt contrived.


That bit with the ark was actually one of my favorites in the movie. From the moment they walked into the warehouse, I was hoping they'd show it. I was a little disappointed that Indy didn't SEE it and do a double-take or something. :-P
