Are you really that ignorant? Seriously... the "tribesmen" from Raiders, the Indians from Doom, and the South Americans in Skull? What about the Chinese people in Doom and the middle easterns in Raiders? Man, go do some research on the people's actual cultures and get back to me.

 

 

You really call that racist? That is sad. Most people would not see it that way. In foreign media, you'll find exagerated depictions of Americans. Fair enough. I can see how real Indians may take offense, just like Americans get offended when they see how they are depicted or seen through others eyes.

As was mentioned already, Indiana Jones is NOT a documentary, hopefully people are not dumb enough to treat it like one and expect to learn anything real about the world from it.

Maybe the inaccurate and stereotypical depictions in the film could be considered ignorant, but they sure are not racist.
