It's not a matter of letting go and having fun.
There are certain absolutely ridiculous things that take people out of their suspense of disbelief.
The funny response when I say that from the people who kiss Lucas' @$$ is that "it's an Indy movie... ridiculous stuff happens all the time like with the arc" My response to that is "yes and no" with the religious magical artifacts that's come to be expected because it's a fantasy movie. But when you don't expect it to happen like Indy getting nuked in a fridge, it tends to take people out of the movie with how asinine it is.
Also, haters aren't the minority,
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0367882/ You don't get a 6.7 rating by having people all over the movie love it.
Considering that on IMDB a 6.7 is about an average rating, that's pretty pathetic considering the amount of money that it made.
Not only that, most folks go to the movies to be entertained, but when what they're seeing could have easily been made by Uwe Boll that entertainment factor just isn't there. Give Uwe Boll the amount of a budget that Indy 4 had and you'll end up with a FAR better result.
