UNCYNICAL: I propose Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny’s primary purpose is to end the franchise on a high note and it did… for the most part.

Skye's Proposal: I propose that the Dial of Destiny is to the Indiana Jones franchise what the Gerald Ford administration was to presidencies. No one wanted it. No one was excited for it. It was acceptable but mostly because it’s predecessor was a disgrace. And no one wants to see it again.
