Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008)

Indiana Jones survives a nuclear explosion by hiding in a lead-lined fridge. Yes, Crystal Skull marks the moment the Indiana Jones franchise went off the rails and "nuking the fridge" became the new "jumping the shark" – but it's impressively staged. And the shot of Indy facing the mushroom cloud, a 1930s hero transplanted to the Nuclear Age, is one of the film's few truly iconic moments.
