[@colonelb]

WOOHOO! I love #1 and #2, but #3 is my absolute favorite. The father-son chemistry between Harrison Ford and Sean Connery was fantastic and introducing Indiana's father goes a long way to explain why Indiana ended up the way he did. Side-note regarding the line, "we named the dog Indiana" - George Lucas really did have a dog named Indiana as a young man writing Star Wars, and not only did it serve as the inspiration for the name, Indiana Jones, but he also would drive around with Indiana in the front seat, and being that Indiana was a BIG dog (Alaskan Malamute), it also gave him the idea of a "dog copilot" that eventually became the idea for Chewbacca in Star Wars as well. Cheers

[@jopat1424]

The opening explains his whip, the scar on his chin, the hat & his fear of snakes. Non-stop action and parts that are really funny!

[@michaelf8702]

This movie also explained why Indiana is so afraid of snakes. At the beginning, when they were about to steal that cross from those other archaeologists, his friend is scared by a snake in Indiana says "it's just a snake". But then we see during the chase the Indiana falls into a car full of snakes. He's been scared of them ever since

[@TAPKAC]

Regarding Indiana Jones taking his name after the dog: During the early years, you may have noticed an Alaskan Malamute dog in the house when Young Indy arrives with Coronado's Cross (which BELONGS IN A MUSEUM!!!). George Lucas, who was one of the co-creators of this series, DID have an Alaskan Malamute dog named Indiana that would always ride shotgun in the car among other places. Not only was this Indiana the inspiration behind our hero's name in this series, but also the inspiration behind Chewbacca from Star Wars. Hope you're doing well. 😀

[@Fremen1971]

It's my understanding that the effects of the Holy Grail upon Indy and Henry ended after they stepped past the seal, so that they would not get to stay immortal.

[@ivaneames4354]

I seem to remember reading somewhere that you had to drink from the Grail everyday to gain immortality. Doing so would basically stop you from aging, like the Knight. If you stopped drinking from the Grail then the aging process would start up again.

[@thomasbrown9402]

You're wrong, Indiana Jones will live forever.

[@imbwildrd3693]

BJ: The airship you were remembering was the Hindenburg, a German airship. In 1937 It flew from Germany over the Atlantic to land in Lakehurst, New Jersey. As it was landing it exploded in flames. Because the ship was filled with hydrogen instead of helium and was much more flammable (along with other factors that became known years and decades later), the ship burnt to just a steel frame. Many people died. The tragedy is most remembered by the words of a radio broadcaster who was supposed to be covering the landing, but ended up describing the tragic scene with great detail during which he said "Oh the humanity!" while he was sobbing.

[@eliasshaikh2065]

When I was a kid in the 70s the PBS tv channel used to broadcast the film of the Hindenburg disaster very often. That disaster was a big factor in the decision later on to make all blimps filled with helium instead of hydrogen.

[@karlsmith2570]

Something that a lot of people don't realize is that the Hindenberg had the Swastika on it's tailfin, which was much to the dismay of the owner of the airship

[@Amonabus]

@@eliasshaikh2065 Well, most nations knew about the issues with hydrogen before hand. The issue was that the USA had the monopoly on helium, as it was just discovered, and had placed sanctions on nazi germany. Germany had no other suitable option but hydrogen for their blimps.

[@TheHappySpaceman]

@@Amonabus Yup. There are also many other speculated reasons for what caused the _Hindenburg_ to initially explode, since hydrogen does not simply explode on its own. There was actually a very interesting recent PBS documentary about a potential scientific cause of the explosion.

[@Amonabus]

@@TheHappySpaceman I always figured that they mistakenly caused a thermite flare up due to how it was constructed.

[@CinemaScrollKeeper]

When BJ dipped from laughing at the 11 o clock joke, got me rolling

[@wittsullivan8130]

The exterior of the Temple of the Son toward the end of the movie was actually filmed outside a legit ancient structure, the Treasury of Petra in the country of Jordan. The city of Petra is listed as one of the 7 Ancient Wonders of the World because the whole city was carved out of stone in 400 BC (2400 years ago or so). It's a tourist attraction, but it's also protected by the World Heritage Fund. They're still making cool archaeological discoveries about the city.

[@highstimulation2497]

[@wittsullivan8130]

@@highstimulation2497 In the movie, it was the Temple of the Son, as in "of God", since it was about the Grail, and a fictitious structure made up for the script.

Cool 😎!

[@centimarsiosolas6971]

I've always known that the exterior was a real place, but do you know if the interior was real (I don't mean all the grail tests of course, but the place were all the soldiers were, the great seal, etc.) was that a set, or was that a real place? Not sure what the interior of Petra looks like.

[@wittsullivan8130]

@@centimarsiosolas6971 It's been an International Heritage Site (or some similar title) since the 90's. Petra is a city with buildings carved in the stone, not one building. Some people live there, some people have businesses, a lot of them are protected or active archaeological sites. They were functional buildings, not caverns and stuff. The interiors used for Last Crusades were sets. They only filmed them entering and leaving that one structure.

[@jamesmoyner7499]

Sean Connery actually improvised the line "She talks in her sleep." and the role almost went to Gregory Peck.

The part where Donovan starts aging rapidly scared the absolute crap out of me and my little sister when we were 8 and 7. Our older brother and sis had bought the video and showed it to us. I went into a state of shock and my little sister burst out screaming and ran over to our mom, buried her head in our mom’s chest and began crying big time. Our older bro and sis were laughing big time l. Me and my lil sis were like “we’re never watching this again!” Very next day we asked to watch it again.

[@athos1974]

Love the transition, when the scene goes from young Indy having the fedora put on his head, to older Indy raising his head to see Harrison Ford's face.

[@davewildermuth7519]

You're right. The reason we don't travel in giant blimps is that one caught fire and was destroyed. In 1937, a German blimp called the Hindenburg caught fire and crashed while mooring in New Jersey, killing 35 people. That pretty much spelled the end of traveling that way.

[@davidhowell7279]

The reason why we don't travel by blimps is because around the same time, travel across the Atlantic by airplane took about two days less time. Sure, it was much more comfortable and luxurious but, way cheaper and faster by plane. Blimps were just faster than ships. The hindonburg accident was just the nail in the coffin. If planes hadn't come along, I think that they would have figured out how to make it safer. I would have loved to have tried it. It sounds like it was very bougey. Champagne and caviar anyone?

[@FloridaMugwump]

@@davidhowell7279 well said.

[@Cheepchipsable]

The Hindenburg burned because it was filled with hydrogen, which is extremely flammable. Helium is much safer, but was in short supply at the time. As noted by someone else, winged aircraft dominated, I assume because it was much faster. Planes were also developing rapidly due to the impending war. Taking an airship would be like taking a cruise ship v a ferry.

[@FloridaMugwump]

@@Cheepchipsable The Hindenburg burned because it caught fire. The hydrogen did it spontaneously combust.

[@WaywardVet]

Germany had to use explosive hydrogen. America was a huge exporter of the much safer helium. We wouldn't export it to that particular German government.

Steven Spielberg's movies, including this one, definitely played on my sense of nostalgia as a kid which developed into a love of history. Btw I was lucky enough to visit the "crescent moon" city which is located in Petra, Jordan. It was amazing and the city continues on past the "temple". After watching this movie I told myself I was going there one day and I did. Funnily enough when I was taking a break outside the temple a group of guys decided to reenact the scene where Indy went through the 3 trials. It was great and hilarious.

[@americanmutt9089]

Harrison trained for and performed his own stunts for the Indiana Jones series. They did 10 takes of him running from the rolling boulder in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

When his dad said Indiana instead of Junior that made me cry, thank you Sean Connery

[@phillyphan1225]

Loved Ford and Connery but also introducing a young Indy with River Phoenix was gold.

[@mariacavanaugh1010]

The concept of Indiana Jones is inspired by the serial movie features from the first half of the 20th century. Popular serials included westerns, jungle adventure, and even science fiction. The story played out over several weeks with each episode ending on a cliff-hanger that ensured return patronage. Indiana Jones came out just after Empire Strikes Back which ensured a lot of Han Solo fans would be in the audience, me included! 🥳

[@Cheepchipsable]

There are a few up on YT.

[@shallowgal462]

The opening scene showed us where he got his chin scar, his whip, and his look. Harrison Ford only did stunts where you can see his face. Neither Indy nor his dad gained eternal life from the grail, because they crossed the seal, but his dad's healing was already accomplished, so it was permanent. This one is my favorite! I saw it dozens of times at the movies.

[@mikeanderson1722]

I loved how the train scene explained Indy's fear of snakes, as well as where he first tried to use a whip and where Indy/Harrison Ford's chin scar came from. Also, What's that? The Ark of the Covenant. Are you sure? Pretty sure.

[@Billinois78]

Feel better soon, Asia. 😷✌ BJ, you mentioned The Hindenburg disaster. It happened at a Naval station in New Jersey, 1937. On KZbin, you can find the radio broadcast from when it was being reported live. Ever heard someone say "Oh, the humanity"? It came from that. The first Led Zeppelin album cover used a picture of it. Zeppelin is the name of a German company that made airships like what you see in the movie. When the band started out, they got a comment from The Who drummer, Keith Moon who thought their sound would "go over like a lead balloon". Or a lead zeppelin.

[@VforVictory00]

I love how the leap of faith was actually just a camouflaged bridge 😆

[@Jaytee.]

This is the worst booby trap out of the whole franchise, in my opinion. The illusion of the hidden bridge only works from one view point. You would need to be standing in a certain spot, and be a particular height, for the bridge to become 'invisible'. But in the movie, the bridge is camouflaged from multiple angles.

The cliff carved ruins at the end are in the ancient city of Petra, Jordan, which is one of the world's oldest cities (that we know of), in the region where cities and civilization as we know them were first invented. There has been constant settlement in that area for over 9,000 years, back when the area was thick jungle and lush grassland, later farms. Some evidence suggests it's much older.

[@eliasshaikh2065]

Yes the culture that was known to build those temples right into the canyon walls was the lost Nabatean culture, said to be also known as the Thamudeian civilization which is a lost culture of the Middle East that existed probably around 2 thousand years ago and may have had some interaction with the Romans toward the end.

[@mofosoto]

"That chalice belongs in a museum." Hahaha classic! I loved this movie as a kid! I was doing Indiana Jones stunts every day. Every time I went grocery shopping with my mom and we were taking the cart to the car, I was singing the song and pretending that the cart was a train and I would sing the song and jump on the side of it. If I was lucky she would push it fast so I would have to run and catch up to jump on.

The zeppelin you are talking about at 23:46 was the Hindenburg, and it did catch fire and crash in Lakehurst, New Jersey on May 6, 1937. The Hindenburg was German. The CGI of the zeppelin in this movie is actually what the Hindenburg looked like, with the exception of the color. It would be more gray than white.

Henry Sr. was never after the Grail itself. He never wished to possess its power or the eternal life it brought. He never wanted to claim it and bring it to others. He had nothing to gain or prove. He was searching just for himself, for his faith. He just wanted to know it was real, for himself. So when the time came... he chose his son instead, and let the Grail go. Indy was reaching for the Grail because he felt that only if he could give it to his father could he truly get his father's love. He didn't want the Grail or its power either. When his father got his attention by calling him Indiana for the first time in his life, and told him to just let it go... Indy finally understood he HAD his father's love, and had no need of the Grail, and so too did he let it go. Elsa wanted it and its power. She couldn't let it go, and when the time came that brought her to her death. So too would that have snared Donovan, had he lived. Niether could the Knight, and that kept him entombed alive for 700 years. In the end Indiana and his father were the only ones who made the correct choice regarding the Grail. They used it, they had their miracle, but then they let it go, because such miraculous powers are not meant to be kept by any human forever... only to God does the Grail belong.

As someone mentioned the original three were inspired by the era of the Thirties and Forties.

31:10 these external shots of the temple are a real place in Jordan. It's part of the ancient city of Petra and its carved into the canyon walls.

[@08wolfeyes]

Hey Guys! Wishing you both a very happy new year! Bj, you're correct, there was a blimp that caught fire, it was called the Hindenburg, the largest one of it's class. Another great Jones movie, lol! As with all Joneses, we never have much luck with the ladies, lol! Still, what adventures we have, lol! A great reaction as always. Have a fantastic day, take care!

[@jenniferrichardson8474]

My favorite film series. I've loved all of the movies since I was a little girl. I can't wait to see the 5th (and final) installment, which comes out next year. I'm happy to curl up and watch this one along with my fave movie reaction couple. It's a cold, rainy day in North Georgia. The perfect day to watch a great movie. And, btw, you've made it to PAST 60k! Congrats!

[@laurenmichel9686]

Been waiting so long for this reaction!! So glad you loved it - this one gets me super nostalgic. Credit to my mom: we had Last Crusade on VHS, I wonder if anyone else remembers the Pepsi commercial on the tape that had "Indy" saving a woman from the perils of her kitchen that played before the feature film. As a kid it felt so real. I even had an old wooden stick horse that I'd "ride" singing the Indiana Jones theme at the top of my lungs. 😂😊 Further credit to my mom is that she always told me and my sister that young Indiana was played by River Phoenix, she always made sure to teach us about the greats and especially the ones that left us too soon. River is such a great actor - please check him out in Stand By Me. I've recommended it before and will always recommend it. He's even younger and is such a talented kid actor, in a film full of great child & young adult actors. Can't wait to see what's in store for this year's reactions!!! P.S. for tv reactions, I've seen others request this and I'll jump in: please check out The X-Files and Twin Peaks in the future, 90s classics! ✌🏻💖

[@byrontowles2018]

Asia & BJ: if you guys want to see another great treasure hunting movie like this one, you should react to "The Mummy" from 1999, with Brendan Fraser & Karen Allen. Lots of shots that Asia can watch through her fingers!

[@jamesmoyner7499]

The whole eternal life thing only applied to those that would stay inside of the seal. The grail heals, but the eternal life doesn't go with you if you leave.

[@DavidJarvis]

This is a great ending to the series and there are definitely no further installments so you needn't worry.

[@raybirdman]

The temple they go in at the end of the movie is a real temple in Jordan at the ancient Nabataean city of Petra. I’d love to go there one day.

[@vikimseruh4500]

This was really good. Now one more and you will be up to speed with the Indiana Jones movies. Happy New Year guys!

[@ocrap10]

This movie is where the story should have ended

[@TheIronDuke9]

What? You mean you're not looking forward to the time-travelling CGI ridiculous mess that is coming soon? Doesn't the world need a CGI Indy????

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Thanks, Asia! Thanks, BJ! 🏆 There are two more movies in this series... the last one will be released on June 30th! #ReelinWithAsiaAndBj #AsiaAndBjReact #AsiaAndBj #StevenSpielberg #IndianaJonesAndTheLastCrusade #Happy2023

[@concord327]

The Young Indy part in the beginning shows how he got his fear of snakes, uses the whip for the first time, and hat.

[@SergioArellano-yd7ik]

And the scar

[@virginiacox-westwood551]

A German blimp did explode. The Hindenberg came from Germany to Manchester Twp, New Jersey in 1939 (I think). It exploded when it was tying up to a landing pole.

[@daviddrouant2852]

Ever since Indy drank from the grail,he's been cursed to make unnecessary sequels WAAAYYY passed his prime

[@Nix5275]

Original name was INDIANA SMITH. Steven Spielberg changed the name before filming began on Raiders

[@TheOriginalHeisenberg]

40:00 B.J. killin me right now...."You know what Indiana thinkin right now"🤣🤣🤣

[@TheMtVernonKid]

So this is my favorite addition of Indiana Jones out of the franchise. I love this movie. The chemistry between harrison Ford and sean Connery was great. It was they came off believable as a father and son but more importantly guys. This movie is very special to me because it's 1 of 2 movies last movies I had seen with my late mother. She died in 1995.

[@emperorconstantine1.361]

The cross from the beginning was a cross from one of the Spanish Conquistadors looking for El Dorado.

[@baskervillebee6097]

Indiana's Egyptian friend is Gimli from Lord of the Rings.

[@babygirlgibbs]

The first time I saw River Phoenix ( the guy that played young Indiana Jones) was in the movie Stand by Me. I knew then he was going to be a great actor. It's sad he died so young.😥🌹 Great reaction and hope your New year is of to happy start. Love y'all😘❤

[@jimwillride]

Love the channel ya'll! Thanks for staying with it. I've gotten used to sharing a few tunes and a movie night. ❤

[@ReelinwithAsiaandBJ]

Hey, Thanks so much!!!

[@mrs.sherry]

I liked that he was able to let it go. He is such a great actor.

[@slartibartfast8960]

Wasn't even to me directly, but being a man in America I haven't heard those three words from anyone in 5 years. Thank you, and love to you too.

[@toonami99]

the tank scene was easily my favorite as a kid. the music and editing was the best.

[@geoculus5606]

The craft the Jones' flew in out of Berlin was actually not a blimp, although the blimp is related. They are called airships, and come in non-rigid (blimps), semi-rigid, and rigid forms, rigid being the type that was in the movie. It had a metallic frame forming its shape, and hydrogen (helium nowadays, as its safer) was filled inside it to give it loft. Airships move under their own power, using a series of propellers. The airplane docked underneath was for emergencies, and had nothing to do with the airship's propulsion. BJ mentioned an airship blowing up, and was likely referring to the Hindenburg, a huge German airship which, filled with hydrogen as they all were back then, was easily ignitable. It contributed to the decline of airships in general, and today the only ones in regular use are blimps. Airplanes are more advantageous overall than airships, however airships do have a few advantages over planes, mainly that they carry much more cargo, and can hover in place, allowing them to deliver their cargo directly to areas not near a landing strip. A few people are trying to bring airships back into regular use for cargo and human transport, but not much luck so far.

[@sandralorenz1796]

If I remember correctly, the cross belonged to Cortez. You two kids crack me up. Love your reactions. The Hindenburg is the zeppelin you are thinking about. The Hindenburg disaster was an airship accident that occurred on May 6, 1937, in Manchester Township, New Jersey, United States. The German passenger airship LZ 129 Hindenburg caught fire and was destroyed during its attempt to dock with its mooring mast at Naval Air Station Lakehurst. The accident caused 35 fatalities (13 passengers and 22 crewmen) from the 97 people on board (36 passengers and 61 crewmen), and an additional fatality on the ground. I'm with Miss Asia, I'll stay outside and hold the horses.

[@LordVolkov]

Connery and Ford have great father son banter, and their scenes together in Austria are hilarious. The moment Henry sets the floor on fire, the entire castle escape is like a slapstick comedy as they run around being chased by nazis 🤣🤣🤣 John Williams definitely had his work cut out with the mix of whimsy and dark scenes, as Last Crusade whips back and forth from comedy to darkness (Indy's wacky youth to a boat explosion, library antics to a suicidal boat chase, trouncing nazis in Austria to a book burning 😬). He and Spielberg keep the tone shifts from giving the audience whiplash somehow and it is quite a feat.

[@zalkkareita9017]

A little thing about the ending of this movie: Indiana and his father are not immortal since the people who drank from the grail are only immortal in the place where the grail resided, they were not immortal anymore when they passed the seal that grail couldn't pass.

[@inuyashason81]

The blimp you are talking about is the Hindenburg, that went from Frankfurt, Germany to Lakehurst, New Jersey. That is where the Hindenburg burst into flames. There is a disaster film from 1975 called the Hindenburg with george c scott

[@Oleoay]

Fun little fact, the "He chose poorly" line was used in a commercial for the taste test wars promoting Diet Coke. Also the powers not lasting beyond the great seal explains why the knight's brothers died once he left.

[@johnhudson8950]

That site carved out of the red sandstone is called Petra. Planning on seeing that when we travel to Jordan in a few years.

[@ridl8006]

btw... that pink castle in the last scene is real... it's called "Petra"... they carved it all out of solid rock.... and it's still there.... probably 3000 years old at least....

[@TheOriginalRick]

Been to Petra and it was amazing coming out of the wadi (canyon) and seeing the Treasury building just like the movie. Didn't see any Crusader Knights hanging about though.

[@concord327]

Also in the beginning part when Indy runs into his house, you see a dog. That's George Lucas' dog, Indiana which inspired the crearion of Chewbacca in Star Wara and the name of Indiana Jones. That's why Indy's dad says, 'we named the dog Indiana." George Lucas created Star Wars abd co-created Indiana Jones with Spielburg.

[@SergioArellano-yd7ik]

I don't think that was the Same dog.
