Nuke the fridge is a phrase used to refer to the moment in a film series that is so incredible that it lessens the excitement of subsequent scenes that rely on more understated action or suspense, and it becomes apparent that a certain installment is not as good as a previous installments, due to ridiculous or low quality storylines, events or characters. Simply, "to nuke the fridge" means to essentially disappoint fans of a series by making a poor quality installment.
This phrase is derived by a scene in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull when the hero miraculously survives a nuclear blast by getting inside a lead-lined fridge and being blasted miles away.
The original Batman franchise really "nuked the fridge" when they casted Arnald Swartzenager as Mr. Freeze and gave him a billion ice-related puns.

Yo, step up yo bitch ass Jersey Shore Jagerbombs and take on the real brotastic drink of the century: The Tactical Nuke.
A tactical nuke is a drink that will fuck you up and make you ripped up like rambo. Take 3 shots of Jager and wash that shit down with a 5-hour energy, because every true bro wants to be energetic AND wasted.
"YO did you see Brett Broski do that tactical nuke? He punched that stupid orange bitch in the face right after it!"

Nuking the fridge refers to the moment in a film series when it becomes apparent that a certain installment is not as good as a previous installments, due to ridiculous or low quality storylines, events or characters.
Originating from the film "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" where Harrison Ford's character survives a nuclear detonation by getting into a fridge, and is then blown hundreds of feet, only to hit the ground, and then emerges safely.
The absurdity of this event in the film to be the best example of the lower quality of this installment in the series, and thus the phrase was coined.
The phrase is also a reference to the phrase "jump the shark", which has the same meaning, only applied to a television series instead of a film series.
"Star Wars really nuked the fridge when Jar Jar Binks was introduced."
"Indiana Jones 4 nuked the fridge when they nuked the fridge."
