It wasn't really the Alien aspect of it that threw me. It was just the whole god damn thing.

It's not so much that it HAD aliens but rather in the way they utilized them. Stuff like The Ark of The Covenant and the Holy Grail have a kind of sacred aura about them that would teach some kind of lesson, and was replicated in films in such a spectacular way. That's what makes archaeological findings work so much better than inter-dimensional beings.

I didn't think Crystal Skull was awful but it really lost steam with me after the first act and poor, overabundant CGI kept hogging the screen.

What it says it means, the film was just a mess which didn't feel like a good Indie Film like the classics

It was the "Phantom Menace" of the Indiana Jones franchise

Oh and Shia aswell. Good grief.
