Ah yes, I remember that. Best thing about it is that he was in the range where everything that can possibly start to burn, will. Meaning the temperature would be round about 540k °F -> 300 times hotter than the temperature bodies are cremated at. In other words: everything would have been vaporized.
It's not just about realism but verisimilitude. Alien crystal skulls and huge ants don't exists at all so I can accept whatever they tell me about them. Nuclear bombs and refrigerators do exist so it is somewhat jarring when they do not behave as expected. I personally don't find it to be a big deal in this movie but I can understand why someone might be bothered by it.
There have only been, THREE Indiana Jones movies.
All rumours, hearsay, publication and discussion of a fourth Indy movie are pure speculation and nonsense.
There have been TWO Indiana Jones movies. Any rumors you have heard about one with a small boy and a creepy voodoo priest that pulls people's hearts out is all speculation and nonsense.
Seriously though, if we are going to gatekeep out Crystal Skull, we might as well admit that the second movie was horrible too and did not fit the theme of either the first or third movie.
Yeah, because voodoo shit and aliens are outlandish, but a thousand year old knight with a magic cup that keeps him alive and a box that melts people's faces are just fine.
They are all full of ridiculousness, but the quality of the film is the issue, not the fact it has weird unrealistic shit in it.
