" I'm amazed at how much removing the Nuke sequence really helps everything. It removes that air of CGI aided silliness that the film starts with"
Weird, since it's a miniature. Too bad, there's some interesting ideas there. I especially like the idea of not seeing the alien-in-the-box - makes it almost plausible that Indy doesn't know "WHAT WAS IN THE BOX?!!" :P Maybe he was just brought in to look at the artifacts, and didn't get a good look at the body.
