I think ranking the Indy trilogy is like ranking your children. They all are great for their own reasons, I love them all equally. As much as Ford is Indiana Jones I think they should have recast him in the 90s like 007. Keep him forever in his late 30s early 40s in the golden age of pulp heroes the 1930s.

That would be awesome, especially since Sean Connery plays Henry Jones. The first Indiana Jones’ dad is the first James Bond

A great, well thought out and presented video review. Basically my same ranking. I rewatched Dial recently and I may like it better than Temple of Doom now, so I’d swap those two. Temple never sat right with me as it was such a let down from that first perfect film. It has its moments, but is overall just too gross for me. (At least we got PG-13 because of it). I liked the de-aged Indy opening in Dial and (while dark since it’s nighttime) it looks really good to me. I liked overall how they handled his age (since I’m getting up there too) and felt there was still plenty of action even without fist fights. I’m also a huge fan of the Young Indy series (even with its production limitations) Anyways, thanks for sharing.

Fan theory: The song Albuquerque by Weird Al and Breaking Bad take place in the same universe. Weird Al’s character was about to land in Albuquerque until Jane’s father accidentally caused his plane to crash, leaving Al as the only survivor, unbeknownst to the public. He later got a job as a cook at Los Pollos Hermanos. The inconsistencies in the song’s narration are caused by Al having severe faulty memory caused by his sauerkraut-induced insanity.

Dial of Destiny was so bad it made Crystal Skull look good. That's my opinion on it, but I find both to be generally unwatchable. To me, Last Crusade edges out the original. It has a better story and a better ending overall. You can't beat the 3 challenges and the emotional element of them shooting his father to force him to help them get to the grail. 5. Dial of Destiny 4. Kingdom of the Crystal Skull 3. Temple of Doom 2. Raiders of the Lost Ark 1. The Last Crusade.

Ich finde mittlerweile die neuen genauso gut wie die alten. Die alten sind im Grunde eine bessere Kopie der alten James Bond Filme. Aber die neuen Filme sind dafür origineller. Man könnte auch sagen, die alten sind fan Filme von James Bond Filmen und die neuen, sind fan Filme von alten Indiana Jones Filmen.

No clue if this would be controversial or not, but I’d rank the films as follows: 1) Temple of Doom 2) Raiders of the Lost Ark 3) Kingdom of the Crystal Skull 4) The Last Crusade 5) Dial of Destiny #3 is genuinely overrated, #4 I just find a bit underwhelming because it rehashes the first film, and #5 just didn’t feel right and did little to stand out.

I don't often comment on videos but for Indy I'll make an exception. Great video, it's a delight to see a video from someone who obviously loves the subject. In ranking Indy videos there are really 2 questions: is Dial of Destiny above Crystal Skull and Is Raiders No 1 or Last Crusade (and there are many who would argue Last Crusade). I'm with you 100% on the top three. Personally I would put Crystal Skull above Dial of Destiny but not by much. I agree with your good points on Crystal Skull and while the later half gets sillier as it goes along and the great John Hurt is wasted it does at least try to have the fun and joy of the first 3 movies. This is something I think Dial of Destiny sadly lacks. There is no fun in watching a great hero you have loved for years decline. Getting old is s#!t (to use Indys phrase "trust me"). This is not a serious drama its (supposed to be) a fun adventure film that's what people wanted to see. The script is weak, too much CGI and the villains are flimsy compared to those of the past, a trait it shares with Crystal Skull. The peaks and troughs of Mangolds films can be extreme and he isn't up to the task here. One point you made that I totally agree with is that Harrison Ford still looks awesome in the outfit. But I think the whole film was a mistake. The wonderful Mads Mikklesons character is underdeveloped and Boyd Holbrook is criminally wasted. Plus the simple murder of someone who was totally innocent was unnecessary (at the college) it did not further the plot in any way (unlike Temple of Doom). The bad guys are led by an ex Nazi we know they're bad! Temple of Doom has my second favourite score behind Raiders with Last Crusade a close third. I don't really have the issues some have with Willie but maybe that's due to having a crush on Kate Capshaw at the time. 😉 I loved your point about feeling like you were watching something you shouldn't with the darker parts. I would have felt that way if I'd seen it as a child. Last Crusade for me is a joy from start to finish. Heck its Indiana Jones + Sean Connery!! And that cut to Marcus is my favourite in the whole series. I am happy to disagree with Quentin Tarantino on this one (he hates it). And then there's Raiders. A perfect film indeed. I remember seeing early photos before the movie came out. I couldn't wait to see it. And It was everything I'd hoped for. It has probably the greatest opening scene of any movie. Just classic. (The unconnected opening adventure is taken from the Bond movies, a direct inspiration on Indy according to Spielberg & Lucas but you probably know that) Its still my favourite Harrison Ford. While I agree that the end of Last Crusade has a more emotional impact i still prefer Raiders conclusion. I love the foreshadowing of the supernatural by Marcus, Sala and the crate in the cargo ships hold (I love that moment and the rat) The twist where things suddenly turn dark in the ceremony and the consequences of opening the Ark have a biblical Lot's wife tone befitting the Ark. While that final shot in the warehouse is brilliant, again unexpected. And with Raiders no one expected it to go as far as exploding heads, hell this isn't Scanners! It was a genuine shock at the time whereas you knew watching the sequels that they were prepared to go that far in an Indy film. Obviously people may not agree with my points, everyone has their own opinion, and I respect their right to do so. At the end of the day if someone is watching this video then one thing we all share is a love of Indy. Sorry for the long comment. Great video and not shit at all. 👍👍

I get your point about the unecessary violence in Dial, but I actually wanted to use that as a positive compared to Skull, which is that theres some actual murder whereas in Skull its all just so sanitised. Mr Plinkett talks about it in his Skull review and I was trying to avoid just repeating everything he said.
@samuelmackenzie52672 күн бұрын
For me the reason raiders is the best is the fact that the story centres around the significance of the ark itself; how it’s this artefact of such historical and spiritual importance that it adds intrigue and suspense to the plot. I love how each of the main characters ponders the weight and potential consequences of disturbing the ark could lead to. It just adds this special layer of the film the other movies just didn’t capture very well.

5/5 tier: 1. The Last Crusade (One of my favorite movies) 2. Raiders of the Lost Ark (The perfect embodiment of action-adventure serials) 3/5: 3. Temple of Doom (I’ve always enjoyed the action and most of the second half. Couldn’t stand Kate Capshaw or the overly depressing tone.) 2/5: 4. Dial of Destiny (First 20 minutes are fantastic in spite of the de-aging technology. Everything else is just Kingdom of Crystal Skull on repeat.) 1/5: 5. Kingdom of the Crystal Head Vodka (Utterly pointless, doesn’t understand the concept of Indiana Jones, the second half is one of the most horrendous halves I’ve ever seen for a movie, and it just felt like Spielberg on auto-pilot. No passion or creativity. Just pure slop.)

I like Dial just a bit more because I loved that opening sequence, I liked that it wasn't afraid of the fans and just did it's thing for the most part, and it's silliest moments are less silly than both Crystal Skull and Temple. That being said, all of the movies rank highly for me. Even Crystal Skull is a 7/10 in my book
