Behind the scenes
Several elements in Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye are anachronistic to Indiana Jones, rendering the events distinctly non-canon. According to the Indycron keeper Leland Chee, the main indication that the show isn't canonical is that Indy and Marion are reunited in this adventure one year before their meeting in 1936 during the events of Raiders of the Lost Ark.[1]
The 12-minute program included 790 dancers,[2] sky-divers, acrobats, fire-breathers[3] and pyrotechnics.[4] The song "Can You Feel The Love Tonight" is from the 1994 Disney animated film The Lion King.
Reception
IGN and USA Today rated Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye as the worst Super Bowl Halftime Show ever.[5][6] Following a review of Super Bowl LIV in 2020, IGN reconsidered this and promoted Temple of the Forbidden Eye to the rank of second-worst Super Bowl halftime show, stating that a wooden performance and poor choreography by the Black Eyed Peas (which soon to led to the band's breakup) in 2011 has gained the group the new title as putting on the worst Super Bowl halftime show.[source?]
