Re: OT: Indiana Jones Trailer!
 

Ok, thanks, though I think comparing two horrid movies for worstness is going to be low on my multi-page to-do-eventually list.

I do remember now that I don't remember much about Temple of Doom except it started with a fist fight with really loud punch sound effects, the whip/sword/gun fight scene reprise you mentioned, the unconvincing female lead, and then a totally silly/unbelievable/sense&physics-defying scene apparently shot on an amusement park "mine ride". I don't remember the glowing potatoes or what the point was, so maybe I am suffering amnesia from bad movie shock.

Of Last Crusade, I remember not enjoying Connery's character, a (sub?)plot about going (back in time?) to try to assassinate Hitler, and a badly-choreographed action scene which made little or no sense with a tank in the desert, another horrible unbelievable/pointless religious magic theme worse than in Raiders, and the absence of anything I remember actually enjoying.

I did actually enjoy Raiders a lot, though... really. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

I hated temple of Doom, but enjoyed Last Crusade. As long as they kept with the Christian mythology, they were ok. The Hindu or whatever religion it was in TOD just didn't do anything for me.

In order of Preference:

Last Crusade

Wait, what? That doesn't happen. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

Are you thinking of the game Command & Conquer: Red Alert?

Re: OT: Indiana Jones Trailer!
 

There is an "encounter" with Hitler in the Last Crusade, but he's fairly removed from the plot otherwise.

As for my list of preference the Last Crusade is honestly my favorite, with Temple of Doom being the least. All of them have a good sense of entertainment about them though.

Re: OT: Indiana Jones Trailer!
 

Well cool, I learned that I have several incomplete and broken memories about those two films, and that someone actually likes Last Crusade better than Raiders.

I wasn't sure it was time travel, but that's how I remembered it, like the motif had been taken from the other "if you could assassinate Hitler, would you??????" stories which are mostly time-travel stories. Isn't it that Indy's dad contemplates killing Hitler but has doubts and then misses the chance due to delaying and a (poorly choreographed) adventure/fight? Maybe I'm misremembering that too.
