Shadow Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Hey all, been here a while but only recently got around to posting after checking my e-mails and seeing I still had a membership here, remembering I signed up. I searched for this topic but couldn't find it, if it exists by all means merge it. This is one of my all-time favorite film series and I love every entry in their own way, even the much-maligned Crystal Skull. How do you rank them all in order of preference? My ranking is untraditional and probably even quite controversial, but it goes: Temple Of DoomRaiders Of The Lost Ark Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull The Last Crusade I'm sure numerous will want to come after me with torches and pitchforks for having Last Crusade last on my list, but don't take it as me disliking the film because I still dig it very much and even tend to rotate on it and Crystal Skull. I find Last Crusade was a little too comical at times for my liking and too much like Raiders, but I still enjoy it a lot. I think Raiders is the best in many ways but I find Temple Of Doom the most entertaining. I love it's much darker, harsher tone and how it differs from Raiders with more exotic locales, different enemies and a different mythlogy, plus I love the set designs and music. It's also got easily my favorite sequence in the series with the mine cart chase. I think all four are excellent and I wouldn't mind a fifth one if they get on it ASAP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peludo Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 (edited) I know that Raiders is the favorite for many, but IMHO, I prefer Last Crusade. Said this, I am a maniac of Indiana. I love the original trilogy. My ranking is in this order: Last Crusade (10/10) Temple of Doom (10/10) (Very underrated) Raiders of the Lost Ark (10/10) Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (6/10) Edited June 28, 2014 by peludo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobinHood26 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Anyways, grading these type of movies are hard. Entertainment value wise they are all 110's because its mother fuckign Indiana Jones. So A+++ for all 3. but if I had too. Raiders A (97.5) Crusade A- (92) Temple B+ (87.5) (Was my favorite as a kid though) Skull C+ (77) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil in the Blank Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 (edited) 100 point grading system is as useless as a million point grading system. Edited July 2, 2014 by Spottswoode 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
