Nuke the fridge

Why haven’t I heard about this phrase before? It wants desperately to be the “jump the shark” for the late 00’s. Oh, well, you can’t have it all I guess.

But it does seem to sum up the problem with the movies nowadays. What to do when you’ve place your characters in an unbelievable, tenuous situation? You nuke the fridge! What absurdity! I like that, but it is the worst way to get out of a jam.

Plus, the fridge thing flying over the heads of the doomed nazis was absolutely brilliant. One step further down the bizarre that was Indy 4.
