Topic: Most/Least Favorite Indy Movie

First = Raiders
Second (if not tied for first) = Last Crusade
Third = Temple of Doom

Crystal Skull was so incredibly terrible that I wish I'd never even heard of it, let alone seen it. If you haven't molested your own eyballs and memories of Indy with it already, count your blessings and don't look back.

Finally, I agree with Vendetta!

First - Raiders.
Second - Last Crusade
Third - Crystal Skull
Fourth - Temple Of Doom.

1. Last Crusade
2. Raiders
3. Temple
4. Skull

What the heck does everybody have against Kingdom of the Crystal Skull? I thought it was a darned good movie!

My fave to least list goes thus:

• Last Crusade
• Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
• Raiders of the Lost Ark
• Temple of Doom

I liked it as well. Whole lot better than the dreaded temple of doooooom

My sentiments exactly.

I'd only call it confirmation if it came from Spielberg or Lucas. I haven't heard anything concrete from Shia LaBeouf - I've only heard Harrison Ford stating he'd like to do another one, which pretty much contradicts your confirmation.

Besides I think I know which interview you're referring to and it sounds like it's just him speculating to me. Also you can't have an Indiana Jones film without Indiana Jones because if it doesn't have Indiana Jones in it it's not an Indiana Jones movie - it's as simple as that.

@madgear With Indy's hat almost being picked up by Shia LaBeouf at the end of Crystal Skull, do you think that Spielberg/Lucas may set Shia up to be the next young Indiana Jones, to keep these adventure movies going for the next 25 odd years?

Yes, I believe an "Indiana Jones Jr." series is probably in the works. Not because Shia LaBeouf says it (that guy mouths off in interviews a lot, I've noticed), but because of what JamieO said and my familiarity with how Lucas works in general.

I didn't see that as a set up at all - I got the complete opposite impression. To me it was more like he was saying "sorry, kid - no one gets to wear this hat but me".

Exactly.

I'm sure most people here are gonna say Crystal Skull, but I really didn't think it was THAT bad, besides the whole alien thing...

Right about here is where most people lost all hope of Crystal Skull being a good movie.

^So THAT'S the infamous nuked fridge scene I've heard so much about! I must've missed that part, since I don't remember that scene very well.

@fox GOD! seriously wtf. i used to try to defend this movie and be like "whatever yeah it stupid but its Indiana Jones, its not like those flicks were ever high posting." but than my argument was crushed when people brought up the fridge scene. just wtf...wtf...for all its flaws though i think it is a good movie. i like the commies, i like how the chick from raiders is in it, i like the alien conspiracy, and although his acting is bad Harry For manages to display the dont give a fu*k attitude that im so down with it, i would rather watch Crystal Skull than what ever michale bay action movie is big now. woah...that last sentence has more commas in it than a post from waltz_elf in the "sooo obama got the nobel peace prize" thread (lol just jk jk jk) but you guys gotta give me a break, i have a terrible taste in movies (i think mortal kombat annihilation is the better than the bicycle thieves.)

Interestingly, my brother LOVES the nuked fridge! I don't have a problem with it at all...kinda cool, IMO. No idea why people think it's awful.

to me, i just hated how unrealistic it is. i know saying that about an Indy movie is like complaining that fawlty towers is too silly, but i just found it to be too ridiculous. it's just kinda stupid but like i said its a indy movie so its not really high posting. its still a rad movie and thats only one of a few parts that i think are stupid. .

I thought Crystal Skull was great. Set aside the fact that it's an Indiana Jones movie, and I think people would have liked it a lot better. I like the "alien" thing. I like the ridiculousness of "nuking the fridge" I like Harrison Ford's acting. It's perfect for the character. Harrison Ford is Indiana Jones. That's the character. His "bad" acting is Indy's demeanor. It's a ridiculous movie, but it's supposed to be. No one is trying to say that that particular scene is even remotely realistic. It's a freaking movie, and it's fun to watch.

I thought it was okay. But the alien thing was just too far away from what I expect in an Indy movie to make it a really good movie.

It was just okay, nothing more or less, just okay.

The Indy movies are good movies. I really do not have a favorite one though. After I saw the original three a couple times, I really have no interest in watching them again. I really have no interest in seeing the newer one either.
