grey ghost Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 My gaps between the first three are pretty small. They all have unique strengths that make them classic parts of movie history. But the gap between the first three and Crystal Skull is Pacific Ocean sized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Hunt Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Same for me @Jawa. Anyone else have a different "gap analysis"? Raider “fairly big gap but not huge by any stretch of imagination Crusade “Pretty big gap" Crystal.Skull “Minimal gap" Temple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 Going by how awesome Harrison did in The Force Awakens, I got no doubt he can do Indy a final time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoryBrain1 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I actually watched a bit of Temple of Doom for the first time in a long time in the last few weeks and I was shocked at how cartoonish it was. I don't know what Spielberg was thinking with the way he had some of the actors performing. Including cartoon sound effects. There was a bit of "Superman II" to it, and I don't mean the Donner version. So it's basically Raiders, then Crusade, then everything else way below.

Shadow Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Last Crusade is arguably more cartoony and campy in a lot of ways. There's the revolving fireplace and hidden staircase gags, the "Scottish Lord" disguise, the pen ink in the eye, Brody's sudden buffoonery, etc. and for all of the complaining people have for the raft stunt in TOD or the fridge in KOTCS, they give a free pass to equally unbelievable things like the plane in the tunnel, the centuries-old Grail Knight and the fact the prologue with Young Indy shows him getting the fedora, whip (and knowledge how to use it), chin scar, fear of snakes and love of adventure all in the same afternoon. And let's not forget how he escapes from a moving train using a magic box he presumably had no clue how to use before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) Slightly off-topic but R.I.P. to Douglas Slocombe, the director of photography on the first three movies. At 103 years old he had a long and fulfilled life, and captured some of the most striking imagery ever seen on film with his work on the original three Indy films.

RichWS Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Raiders is tops, but I do love Last Crusade. Other than the opening, I've never been a big Temple of Doom guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 Excited for the official announcement of 5 a few months back. I wonder how it'll turn out under Disney? If The Force Awakens is any indicator it's in good hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
