It's the 100th episode of Bad Movies & Beer, and Cooper and Nolan are dusting off their fedoras for one more adventure with INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL!

It's the 100th episode of Bad Movies & Beer, and Cooper and Nolan are dusting off their fedoras for one more adventure with INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL!

As any 80s kid will tell you, the Indiana Jones trilogy is practically sacred. At least it WAS, until one of Steven Spielberg's friends (a certain director from a galaxy far, far away) convinced him to squeeze even more money out of a beloved franchise.

Did Spielberg and you-know-who manage to stick the landing by infusing an appropriate amount of nostalgia and fan service into a brand new story, all while remaining true to the spirit and characters of the original movies? OR... did they create something so terrible that the guys end up using the term "egregious" approximately 30 times in the course of describing it?

You can find the answer by clicking play, but what you WON'T find is Cooper's enjoyable rating, thanks to an argument so heated it caused him to forget all about it.

Still, there's plenty of treasures here for the taking; this episode (featuring a beer from the Sleeping Giant Brewing Company) is one you'll definitely want to explore!
