RobinHood26 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 The first 12 minutes of Raiders is the best 12 minutes in the whole series. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 The truck sequence in Raiders is great, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 The first 12 minutes of Raiders is the best 12 minutes in the whole series. There are plenty of other great scenes, but I feel like nothing comes close to those 12 minutes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Panda Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 1.Raiders2.Last Crusade3.Temple of DoomAnd that's all of the Indiana Jones films, it'd suck if a terrible fourth one came along ruining the prestige of the great adventure trilogy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 There is a fourth one, came out back in 2008 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 Another action scene I love is the bar shoot-out in Raiders. Still quite shocking it got a PG rating with all the bloody bullet hits in it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TServo2049 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) PG-13 didn't exist in 1981. That film would definitely get PG-13 now.You know, for all the shit Temple of Doom got, Raiders was almost as violent. The Nazi strongman getting chopped up in the propeller may have been mostly offscreen, but DAMN.

Dark Jedi Master 007 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 There is a fourth one, came out back in 2008 Must have been one of those lame independent pictures that didn't return any of the original cast and crew and only used the Indy name to get cash.

Shadow Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 I wonder if I'm alone here in enjoying The Last Crusade the least of the series. It's still entertaining but it just feels so bland and repetitive of Raiders and it lacks the intensity of the first two for me. Not to mention the constant silliness and gags got pretty jarring after a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 Watched them all recently again, so much fun to marathon them in one sitting (if quite time-consuming). I know TOD is a prequel and set before Raiders, but I always prefer watching them in release order, IMO they work better that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
