Ilya Somin over at at Volokh links to this WaPo op-ed on the Indiana Jones phenomenon:
I know that the Indiana Jones series is just a campy tribute to the Saturday afternoon serials of the 1930s and the B-movies of the 1950s, but believe me, it totally misrepresents who archaeologists are and what goals we pursue.


Well, duh. Like anyone would make a movie about a guy sitting in a lab measuring debitage.
