None of those things was done with bad pointless and annoying cgi and worked in the context of the indiana jones universe

Correct, they were done with bad pointless and annoying models and fake-looking matte paintings that stand out from the live action. Had the technology been available in the 80s, they would have been done with CGI.

Look, man - your Kingdom hate is well documented here - well documented - I get it - really...I do. You manage to work it into half your posts, regardless of subject matter. However, if you're going to claim that the first three films are somehow void of silly & over-the-top pulp, you're not being honest.  The series has been comic book pulp since its inception. 

Monkeys jumping on soldiers driving a car are no more unrealistic than a monkey who says "uh oh" and then salutes a Nazi - and the raft falling out of an airplane, onto a mountain, then over a cliff, and then landing safely in a river is every bit as preposterous as a fridge being blown through the air.

You don't like your treasured memories to be sullied with 2008ness? - then just say so.  However, claiming that one of the three sequels is more over-the-top than the others is denial. They were all four done by the same people - they know their character and the world he exists in - they invented it, as well as shaped it.

Also they were done long before lucas lost it and made the special editions of star wars and the prequels.

Misplaced Prequel & SE hate - completely unrelated to the Indiana Jones franchise.
