    “Nuke the fridge” is up there with “Jump the shark”

      Not at all. Jump the shark is a high point that the show is not expected to reach again.

      Nuking the fridge is more of a final humiliation.

        you think that the fonz jumping over a shark on his motorcycle was the High Point of Happy Days and that’s why they call it that? 😂

        Jumping the shark is when the plot is lost and a ridiculous next move makes it apparent that the value is gone and the entity has become a joke of itself. That’s my interpretation. I did not google.

    They could have just not had the monkeys. They added nothing to the story and were the most egregiously bad CGI.

  Everyone keeps blaming the aliens but I didn’t that they were that bad a fit. But the movie was terrible and at that but where LeBouf started swinging through the trees I was ready to walk out.

  The newer one’s not too bad though.

    Personally i can’t get onboard with aliens when the rest of the series is cemented in the religious supernatural. The two genres are mutually exclusive in my head.

    That said I do get that aliens are the pop culture thing in the timeframe where that film was set so the decision makes sense. Execution was just piss poor.
