Spoilers for all Indiana Jones works preceding this one will be left unmarked. You Have Been Warned!Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is a 2008 adventure film and the fourth entry in the Indiana Jones series. It is directed by Steven Spielberg, with the screenplay written by David Koepp and the story written by franchise creator George Lucas and Jeff Nathanson. It is also the last film in the franchise to be distributed by Paramount Pictures.Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is set 19 years after Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, during the Cold War, and begins with Indiana (Harrison Ford) and his colleague, George "Mac" McHale (Ray Winstone) being captured by Russian soldiers seeking a powerful artifact that the U.S. government is holding. Although the Russians, led by Irina Spalko (Cate Blanchett) obtain the artifact (a Crystal Skull of unknown origin), Indy manages to escape after a harrowing experience at a nuclear testing site in Nevada.The FBI, paranoid of Russian infiltration, accuse Indy of being a collaborator with the Russians, and the allegations force him out of his long-term teaching career at Marshall College. Just when he thinks his time as a teacher and archaeologist is done, Indy meets a leather-jacket-wearing young man named "Mutt" Williams (Shia LaBeouf), who convinces Jones to go with him to South America and help him find an old friend.Indy and Mutt's journey eventually lead them to reunite with Indy's old lover — and as it turns out, Mutt’s mother, Marion Ravenwood (Karen Allen), who had also been kidnapped by the Russians, and Professor Harold Oxley (John Hurt), Jones' close associate who discovered the artifact and went slightly insane as a result. Now, reunited with Marion and accompanied by Mutt, Indy sets out to discover the secret behind the crystal skull, leading him on an adventure both familiar and entirely new.The film also stars Jim Broadbent as Charles Stanforth, Alan Dale as Bob Ross and Igor Jijikine as Antonin Dovchenko.Kingdom of the Crystal Skull was finally put into production after having various ideas floated around in the 1990s. The film took inspiration from the pulp science fiction stories of the 1950s, and was set during the Cold War. The film also featured a score by John Williams and creature effects by Stan Winston (in one of his last projects).The film's story is followed by Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (which takes place 12 years later), released in 2023. |

Artistic License – Linguistics |
| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_12f078f3 |
comment |
Artistic License – Linguistics: Indy claims at one point that he learned to speak Quechua during his time with Pancho Villa in Mexico as a young man (as seen in The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles). While not impossible, this is highly improbable: Quechua is predominantly spoken in the highlands of South America (particularly Peru), as it was historically the primary language family of the Incan Empire. It's seldom spoken in Mexico—which is located in North America, and was historically the domain of the Aztec Empire. The most widely spoken pre-Colombian language in Mexico is Nahuatl. In the opening scene, Indy identifies Spalko as being from "Eastern Ukraine" based on her uniquely hard pronunciation of the "w" sound. In reality, Ukrainian (like most Slavic languages) doesn't have a "w" sound, which is why Eastern Europeans often pronounce "w" as "v". While people of Slavic descent do sometimes "over-pronounce" that sound when learning English (since they usually need to concentrate extra hard to pronounce it correctly), this wouldn't give someone away as being from Ukraine, let alone from Eastern Ukraine specifically. |

| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_13eea985 |
comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: Indy dismissively tells Mutt the Crystal Skull legend is "just a story". Like The Ark of the Covenant, right? He also calls Akator granting Mind Control powers to whomever returns the skull there a "bedtime story", just as he did with the Holy Grail legend. It's possible though that he was just being uncooperative with his captors, or that most stories of this kind are still false in the Indyverse, so he wasn't ruling it out on grounds of plausibility alone. |

Tempting Fate: When Indy and Marion get caught in the dry sand pit, he assures her it will be find so long as there isn't an air pocket. He doesn't even get to finish that thought before one bursts from them disturbing the sand, causing them to sink faster. Then a second one goes off. Irina wants to know everything [that the aliens know], she gets her wish. |

Amphibious Automobile |
| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_15d60257 |
comment |
Amphibious Automobile: The so-called "Ducks" are actually scaled-up replicas of the Ford GPA/Soviet GAZ 46 constructed on modern jeep chassis. Replicas had to be used as the WWII originals are actually quite small compared to modern jeeps — small enough that a person standing on top of one could easily flip it over, making them too small for the fencing scenes. The misidentification as "ducks" makes perfect sense story wise as most people (including Dr. Jones, apparently) are not military vehicle historians. It is also worth noting that the vehicle actually known as the "Duck" was officially called the DUKW (a code which meant a 1942 design of a utility vehicle with tandem rear axles and all-wheel drive) and was built on the chassis of the military's three-axle, 2 1/2-ton cargo truck (officially: CCKW) from World War II |

Genre Savvy: Mac after Indy and Mutt are taken captive in Peru. Having worked with Indy since the Second World War, Mac knows his old friend quite well. This means Mac knows that sooner or later, Indy's inevitably going to get loose from Soviet captivity and that he might reach Akator before Spalko. So, Mac intentionally drops "clues" to Indy that he's actually a double agent working for the CIA just in case he needs to "switch sides". Mac's prescience pays off and his deception works. |

comment |
Misplaced Wildlife: The ants are recognized by Indy as "Siafu", who live across the Atlantic in Africa. The Brazilian dub\subtitles fixes with a similarly named one that does live in the Amazon, "Saúva", even if that opens another Artistic License given those ants are leafcutters. To be fair, Indy might just be stating their assumed danger based on an ant he's more familiar with rather than saying that these are an African species that somehow ended up in South America. |

| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_18aff462 |
comment |
Artistic License – Biology: The "Rat Snake" used to rescue Indy and Marion is really a Papuan Python. Rat snakes do not grow that big. Even Indy lampshaded that one when Mutt tried to assure him (most likely Mutt was trying to calm the clearly-freaked Indy down). Also the "siafu". First things first: siafu are real ants, but come from Africa, not South America. Of course, Indy might simply have misidentified them (he's not a zoologist, after all). But no matter where they came from, the idea that an ant colony could drag a struggling adult human being into their hill and strip him to the bone in seconds is a bit far-fetched. |

One of them is in a jeep with Mac when Indy makes them crash. One is the bespectacled scientist whose glasses are pulled off by the magnet during the search for the artifact in Hangar 51. One of them is one of the two soldiers who gets into a drag race with some teenagers on the way to Hangar 51. |

Violently Protective Girlfriend: When Indy tells Mutt to start a fight by punching a random guy, the first person to hit Mutt back is the victim's girlfriend. This also applies to Marion as she manages to get Indy away from the Russians using an amphibious vehicle and a tree to knock them down as they were scaling the cliff. |

Resolved Noodle Incident: Downplayed, but the return of Marion for the first time since Raiders of the Lost Ark. The unstated implication from her absence during Last Crusade was that something had happened in the 2 years between it and Raiders that caused her and Indy to split. What exactly happened is finally revealed in this film. |

Mutt laughing at the Soviet spies after they crash, while Indy looks on unamused, is similar to how in Last Crusade, Indy laughs after taking down a Nazi motorcyclist as his father gives a Disapproving Look. Although Indy's unamused because they crashed into a statue of Marcus Brody. |

Although the driver's supervisor discourages him from racing, the pleading girls from the teens'car persuade him - he gives a grin, and slams down the accelerator. |

Brilliant, but Lazy: Mutt. He can speak Spanish, learned fencing, and loves reading, but dropped out of school because he thought much of it was a waste of time, choosing to fix motorcycles for a living. Marion was not happy with Mutt's decision. Neither was Indy, after learning Mutt was his son. |

Actor Allusion: Harrison Ford apparently became savvy about whether somebody escaped or was merely let go. He also says, "I've got a bad feeling about this." One lesson not learned from A New Hope: Dismissing a character's fear of having seen something in motion as nothing, only it turns out to be something dangerous indeed. This isn't the first time John Hurt has been messed up by aliens. It's not the second time, either. It's also not the first time he gets involved in unusual archaeology. |

Villainous Legacy |
| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_3a29c5c8 |
comment |
Villainous Legacy: Downplayed. While Hitler and the Nazis have been gone for more than a decade, their legacy still casts a shadow over the film (even if they aren't actually mentioned). Nazi Germany's defeat of course gave rise to the Cold War, which in turn set off the arms race that got Spalko's Akator operation green-lighted (and Indy kidnapped). Played straight with Stalin. Despite having died only 4 years earlier, the USSR would not exist as it does to challenge the Americans in the Cold War if not for his legacy. More, Spalko states a new frontier of psychic warfare — one the Skull will help realize — was one of Stalin's dreams. |

Noodle Incident: What Indiana did as an OSS intelligence officer During the War implies the existence of a full noodle warehouse. Many medal-worthy actions are alluded to and a Berlin cover mission is invoked by Mac. Plus his involvement in the Roswell Incident. The next film, Dial of Destiny would use one of Indy's wartime adventures as its prologue. |

Dated History: At the time this film was made, crystal skulls had not yet been definitely discredited as ancient artifacts. In fact, the Mitchell-Hedges Skull, which the movie name-drops, was only proved to be a modern creation in 2008, the same year as the movie's release! Talk about bad timing. |

Late-Arrival Spoiler: In the film, Marion's reveal a third of the way through is meant to take Jones (and the audience) by surprise. Of course, that didn't stop Paramount from including the character on the official poster for the film and heavily publicizing Karen Allen's involvement with the project. Her name also appears in the credits shown during the opening scene. |

Manly Tears: Mutt’s eyes are shiny with tears and he’s struggling not to cry in Oxley’s empty cell at the asylum as he sees evidence that Oxley went insane (because he saw Oxley as a father figure). |

Fake Town: This film provides the trope image. After Indy escapes from the warehouse, he comes upon a suburban neighborhood and goes in looking for help. In short order, he discovers the neighborhood is entirely populated by mannequins. A short time later, he realizes he's walked into a nuclear test site and they're about to conduct the test. |

comment |
Remember the New Guy?: A few examples: Mac is introduced as an ally of Indy's from World War II with whom he went on many secret missions. General Ross clearly knows Indy from World War II. Harold Oxley is an old friend of Indy's who is appearing in the series for the first time. Charles Stanford also counts as this, although in his case he's also something of a Replacement Goldfish for Marcus Brody. A posthumous example is Colin Williams, a friend of Indy and Marian who was killed during World War II. |

Passing the Torch: Subverted. At the end of the film, a gust of wind blows Indy's hat to Mutt's feet, the idea being that Indy is going to retire from archaeology and Mutt is gonna take his place. But as Mutt is about to put the hat on, Indy scoops it out of his hands and puts it on; Indy's never gonna quit looking for treasures. |

| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_7ae52fff |
comment |
Hollywood Magnetism: When Indy needs to find the location of a magnetic crate, he throws gunpowder in the air and watches which way it moves. Gunpowder isn't actually magnetic, and if the magnetic field is strong enough to attract gunpowder from the other side of a large warehouse, there'd be no getting it out of the truck it's then loaded into without heavy equipment. It's later lampshaded when Mutt notes it attracts non-magnetic items like gold coins, implying it's actually a fairly arbitrary psychic force rather than real magnetism. |

Karmic Death: Irina Spalko's need for knowledge ends up being her downfall when the alien reads her mind and judges that she would use the information for evil, before burning her alive from the inside-out. Another interpretation is that she got exactly what she asked for, but it was just too much for her puny human brain to hold. Early on, Mac turns against Indy while claiming he's a "capitalist". This turns out to be his downfall, as he dies when his love of material goods makes him too slow to escape the collapsing temple. |

Greater-Scope Villain |

Greater-Scope Villain: Spalko works for the Soviet Government, and in 1957 when the film was set Nikita Khrushchev was Secretary of the Soviet Communist Party and Nikolai Bulganin was Chairman of the Council of the USSR, making them the Greater Scope Villains. Neither are actually mentioned, although an effigy of Khrushchev is briefly seen at the anti-communist protest during the motorcycle chase. Despite the film taking place four years after his death, Josef Stalin is name-dropped a couple times, no doubt because his historical reputation is much more negative than that of Khrushchev. |

| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_9bcd82c0 |
comment |
Took a Level in Badass: Marion has graduated from throwing the occasional punch at her captors to driving an amphibious transport off a cliff and onto a tree, then letting the tree snap back and smack into the cliff-climbing Mooks behind her. Indiana as well. He was an Action Survivor in the first three films who got by on luck and determination, but with an extra nineteen years of adventuring under his belt, Indy's actually gotten good at being an Action Hero. |

comment |
Dirty Communists: The bad guys of the film. Spalko actually states that her obsession with it is due to the aliens possessing a Hive Mind. Just as Belloq desired The Ark of the Covenant because it is "a radio for speaking to God", Spalko wants to find the Kingdom for a Commie Assimilation Plot. |

Foreshadowing |
| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_9d12bbc1 |
comment |
Foreshadowing: Mutt reveals in the malt shop his mother's name is Mary. Guess who she turns out to be? Pretty much everything Oxley says while raving comes back as important later as it helps lead the main characters to Akator. Some of his ravings foreshadow some other interesting reveals, like: A quick one near the beginning; when the door to Hanger 51 is opened, the Lost Ark's musical cue is briefly heard. Turns out the hanger is where the US Government stashed it, as revealed by its broken crate. Indy tells Spalko to Be Careful What You Wish For, as she might just get it. She responds, "I usually do." At the end, she asks the aliens to tell her everything they know. She gets it, the information proves too much for her, and ends up killing her. |

Made of Iron: Despite being older, Indy endures more punishment than ever before. He flies backwards into a truck and crashes through the windshield, survives inside a lead-lined fridge when it's tossed end-over-end out of the blast zone and tries to beat The Dragon (who's seemingly larger than he is) while getting punched repeatedly. The rest of the cast (especially Oxley) exhibit this when they survive the trip over three waterfall drops with nothing more than shaken nerves. |

Continuity Nod |
| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_9dab0a6e |
comment |
Continuity Nod: The Ark of the Covenant is revealed as Indy exits the warehouse after the truck chase sequence. Indy mentions to Mutt that he ran away from home and joined Pancho Villa during the Mexican Revolution when he was a teenager. This happened in the pilot episode of The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles. At one point, Indy tells Mutt that his plan to distract the Russians at the campsite is "intolerable", just like Henry Jones said several times to Indy in the previous film. In The Last Crusade Indiana teaches that seventy percent of all archaeology is done in the library. By 1957 his thinking has evolved and it's more in touch with his actions; he remarks that a good archeologist is the one who gets out of the library and does fieldwork. |

Red Scare |
| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_ac1e30d8 |
comment |
Red Scare: Irina Spalko and the Russians. This is also shown in the rampant paranoia of the time, with the two FBI agents who question Indy insinuating that he's a communist sympathizer and traitor, even though it's also pointed out that he's both a War Hero and one of the most highly decorated people in the entire country. Which is emphasized by his former CO, General Ross, who clearly believes that the obsession over the Red Scare is absurd, and tries to convince them that Indy is innocent. It doesn't help much. Though the worst Indy got was losing his job as a college professor. Paranoia? This film shows that the KGB is capable of infiltrating a top-secret base (complete with nuclear test site) in the middle of the USA. Seems McCarthy was right... - in-universe. Except that the FBI is more interested in persecuting Indiana, instead of actually dealing with the KGB. |

Chekhov's Skill: Early on, Mutt establishes that he learned the art of fencing before dropping out of school. This comes in handy later when he discovers a pair of swords in the back of the group's escape vehicle during the forest chase scene, and uses one to spar with Spalko as the cars race through the forest. |

Oh, Crap!: During Indy's escape from the warehouse, Mac gets one when he realizes the car he's in is on a collision course with Indy's, and is going to crash head-on into it. Indy gets one when a carload of Russians looking for him in the nuclear test site drive off without him, leaving him stranded there with less than twenty seconds to go before detonation. Said Russians also get one when the air raid siren goes off. All three dash back to their car and scram, leading to the above example. Indy gets two in succession at the end of the chase scene through the forest. The first is when he sees the jeep he and the others are in is about to crash, and then again when the siafu ants appear. The whole group of heroes when the truck they're driving goes over a waterfall. Then it happens again as they realize it's not just one, but three sequential waterfalls. |

Really Gets Around: Indiana's past attitude, which by the time of this film comes back to bite him. As Marion points out, Indiana left her and didn't send a letter till three years later. Of course, she wasn't going to tell him she had borne his child, especially after she had moved on and married someone who didn't care she was a single mother. She snarkily says Indiana has no right to judge her for moving on when she did the same. |

comment |
Screw This, I'm Outta Here: When the three Russians who chase Indy into a nuclear testing zone realize where they are, they take off even as Indy tries to surrender to them so he can flee the blast radius. Their car ultimately fails to outrun the explosion. One of the cemetery guards who attacks Indy and Mutt runs for it after Indy takes out his gun. A thug Indy knocked out cold but didn't toss out of the vehicle early in the jeep chase wakes up as Spalko is trying to knock the jeep off the edge of a cliff. Rather than try to overpower Indy and Mac, the guy jumps out of the jeep, making a safe (albeit rough) landing before being left behind by the opposing parties. |

Indy Ploy: Lampshaded. Also averted, surprisingly enough. In the beginning, Indiana Jones takes gunpowder from the Soviets and uses it to track the alien remains in the warehouse. It seems to be setting up a "gotcha" where they try and shoot him but can't because they have no bullets left, but nothing ever comes of it. |

Let's Get Out of Here: A carload of Russians looking for Indy in the nuclear test site do this with less than a minute before the bomb goes off. It doesn't do them much good, as while they escape the site, the blast catches up to them and takes them out. Indy, Marion, Mutt, Oxley, and Mac when the skull is returned and the portal opens up above their heads. When Oxley tells them what it is, Indy says, "I don't think we want to go that way," and they promptly get the hell out of there. |

Artistic License – Geography |
| Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull / int_e9f517e1 |
comment |
Artistic License – Geography: While teaching his class after his interview with the Feds, Indy mentions the Skara Brae archaeological site (or as he pronounces it, "Ska-ah Bray") as being on the "west coast of Scotland". Skara Brae is on the west coast of Mainland, the main island of the Orkney Islands, which are just North of the Scottish mainland, not West of it. The historically significant island off the West coast of Scotland is the Isle of Skye. However, Indy does get Skara Brae's timeline right, as it was occupied long before Stonehenge and the Great Pyramids were built, and is often refered to as the "Scottish Pompeii". This could be explained as him being a bit rattled. Indy learning Quechua, an Andean language, from men in Mexican Pancho Villa's army. Not impossible, but pretty unlikely. Nahautl would've been more likely. The map showing the journey to Peru shows their point of arrival to be Cuzco, which is absurd for both historical and geographical reasons. There was no international airport there at the time, and getting from Cuzco to Nazca would've involved several days of arduous driving, almost all of in the Andes Mountains, and very little of it on paved roads. Mutt's motorcycle would have never made it. |

Double Reverse Quadruple Agent: Mac. He betrays Indy in the beginning, "explains" it partway through by claiming to be a CIA double-agent, then betrays him again at the end. Indy lampshades this: |

Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Jim Broadbent's character Dean Charles Stanforth stands in for Marcus Brody. George 'Mac' McHale is essentially a replacement for Sallah, a fan favorite character who is totally absent from this movie. Mac's character is introduced as if we already knew him from previous installments; a lot of dialog refers to his and Indy's shared past (which happened in-between movies); and we are clearly supposed to care about his change of alignment from good to evil, even though we never actually got to know him first. |

Earn Your Happy Ending: Marion gets this. It's revealed, after losing her father and livelihood, that Indiana left her before they were supposed to get married. She was forced to be a single mother and moved on, only for her new husband to die, her son to get expelled from every high school, and for herself to be kidnapped. After she tells off Indiana, she forgives him when he makes an effort to make up for it, and he finally marries her. |

Character Aged with the Actor: Lampshaded and part of the new Establishing Character Moments needed after the Sequel Gap. e.g Indiana fails one of his whip-antics. |

Artistic License – Physics: Believe it or not, it's actually not that improbable for Indy to survive a nuclear explosion by sheltering in a refrigerator. Explosions are funny things, and even a little bit of cover can greatly improve your survival odds, particularly with nuclear explosions where the biggest danger is from flash burns. And the refrigerator itself may well have survived intact — those older ones are amazingly tough. Nor is radiation an automatic death sentence, and the damage can be mitigated if you get decontaminated fairly soon (hence Indy being stripped naked and scrubbed down). No, the most implausible thing is that Indy survives uninjured after being hurled into the air several hundred yards and crashing down to Earth at full speed. Fridge or no fridge, the impact from a fall at that speed would almost certainly have killed him. |

Canon Immigrant: Partial example. The Russians first interfered with Indy in one of the games before they were used for Crystal Skull. |

Brick Joke: Indy's words to Spalko early on in the film was "I like Ike", later on after Indy escapes the Russians from the military base, those exact words reappear again.....on a bomb in a nuclear test site. |
