* [[Arbitrary Skepticism]]: Indy dismisses [[Artifact of Death|the Crystal Skull]] as "just a story". Like the Holy Grail and [[Artifact of Death|the Ark of the Covenant]], right? His skeptical attitude toward the Ark is also bit odd considering that he'd already been exposed to genuine supernatural phenomena in ''Temple of Doom'', but that's more of a continuity issue.

* [[Quicksand Sucks]]: Indy and Marion get caught in it, although Indy explains that it's actually "dry sand". It's also when {{spoiler|Marion tells Indy Mutt is his son}}. [[Truth in Television]] though as very dry fine sand is actually very fluid. It's only when wet or rough that sand will stick.
