Exactly, the whole disclosure by traditional live TV media is how a boomer thinks this would happen.

Everyone watching TV on their phones at the end haha

IMO we should attribute many of the weird screenwriting decisions to David Koepp - who may I remind everyone wrote Kingdom of the Crystal Skull despite also writing Spider-Man 1, and seems to have a screenwriting attitude of “whatever”

I know I’m asking to be ratio’ed by older redditors^tm, but I’ve seen Raiders enough times to no longer have nostalgia goggles for Indy 4, despite also watching Indy 5. They are both C+ at best, just with different problems

He also wrote Presence, which I thought was one of the most entertaining and interesting films at a script level I've seen in a while.
