Ke was about 12 years old when he teamed up with Harrison Ford for this movie. Willie played by Kate Capshaw. During filming of Temple of Doom, Kate met her future husband, Spielberg during filming while still being married to Amy Irving (now his ex). Spielberg married Kate in 1991.

[@NemeanLion-]

Harrison Ford once said Amrish Puri (the evil priest Mola Ram) is ironically one of the nicest people he’s ever known. Puri was so grateful for the role because it rejuvenated his acting career in India. All he had to do was keep shaving his head.

[@ronfehr7899]

I heard that they only had a limited time in which to do his scenes. Him being famous in India explains why. I suppose all of his other movies were filmed there.

This was one of the films that led to the creation of the PG-13 rating. This released the same year as Gremlins, Ghostbusters, The Terminator, Red Dawn, Conan the Destroyer, Beverly Hills Cop and A Nightmare on Elm Street

[@domingocurbelomorales8635]

Temple of Doom is a "prequel" of Raiders. Mola Ram, the evil priest, it´s played by Amrish Puri, who was a well known indian actor who passed away in 2005. For me, the perfect description of this movie is... "Darth Indiana". A great original trilogy, being "The last crusade" my favourite. The OST, by John Williams of course, reminds me ALWAYS to Star Wars, specially themes like "battle of the heroes" or "duel of the fates", in the dreadful scenes.

[@TodPreece-xo9qj]

You're absolutely right about how changing your look opens the door to different characters. I grew out my beard & let my hair grow to audition for a Western a while back. I got the role, which led to more roles, including another Western! Then I shaved & landed a role as Johnathan Kent in a fan film. Changing appearance makes a world of difference! Great react as always, V. See ya next time 😁

[@ronweber1402]

I have always been amazed by Vincent D'Onorfrio and Gary Oldman. They are chameleons.

[@VerowakReacts]

Men can have so many different looks, it's quite amazing. If I see an actor with a beard often, I sometimes don't recognize him without the beard. Grats on getting roles, that's not an easy task!!

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Thanks, Verowak! 🧭 I love the opening musical number so much. Yes, 'Willie' is a damsel in distress trope (as most female characters in the 1930s were depicted)... and very irritating. But otherwise, I think it's an enjoyable ride. And I don't think it's a spoiler to let you know that it was pure lust between them, not love. You won't have to worry about seeing her again.

[@TedLittle-yp7uj]

There were many, many strong female characters in 1930's films (c.f. Better Davis, Katherine Hepburn, Paulette Goddard, Barbara Stanwyck, etc., etc., etc.) Even in the serials, which the Indiana Jones films were based on, the female characters, though often in peril, were seldom week characters and often rescued the hero.

[@auntvesuvi3872]

@@TedLittle-yp7uj I'm very aware of that. I was speaking of the trope... which is a trope because it was common enough to become a trope. Verowak will surely research more interesting female characters and performers, the more she watches. My mother raised me on Bette Davis. 🥂

[@VerowakReacts]

My pleasure!! If the Gladiator songs were more easily hummable, I would have hummed that one too! This one was much easier to do 😅 I assumed it was lust between them, I'm just so used to it being love that it felt so weird. Once I realized lust was a thing, it made more sense 😂

[@auntvesuvi3872]

@@VerowakReacts I'm quite a fan of Cole Porter songs... of which "Anything Goes" is. Maybe one day you'll watch both of the dramatized biographies about him? They are: NIGHT AND DAY (1946) which is very whitewashed, in keeping with the era... and DE-LOVELY (2004) which is more accurate. Both are filled with his tunes and clever lyrics. 🎶

[@benschultz1784]

This was filmed in Sri Lanka as the Indian government wasn't too happy with the portrayal of Hinduism. An important scene that got cut for time had Indy run into Captain Blumbertt while getting the fruit platter for Willie, where Indy tells him something's off about Pankot because no one should have eaten anything from that feast. It also sets up Blumbertt returning with his Punjab Rifles later.

When the motors of plane stop (out of fuel), this is the same sound in Star Wars when Millenium falcon can't jump in hyperdrive. And Indiana Jones say the same replic : "we have a big problem"

The sound is actually the sound of a radial engine starting up played in reverse, so it's most accurate here.

Same here. First I watched, but prefer the other 2. Raiders is my favorite.

[@glennjpanting2081]

44:09 - A lot of actors have changed their looks for a role, and that look has become their trademark. For instance, Richard Moll played bald, big-hearted bailiff Bull Shannon on the NBC series _Night Court_ (1984-1992; if you haven't seen it, it's hilarious!). Moll had shaved his head for his role in the movie _Metalstorm: The Destruction of Jared-Syn_ (1983). The producers of _Night Court_ liked the look so much that Moll kept his head shaved for the entire run of the series, and became famous for it!

[@Davaldod]

Definitely do 'Last Crusade.' Many people think it's the best 'Indy' film. Plus, there's no Willie.

[@TedLittle-yp7uj]

Most of the tropes you saw in this and the other Indiana Jones films came from the serials of the 30's. 40's and 50's. Spielberg spent more money and made them more elaborate but they are essentially the same. It would be fun to see you react to one of those; they are the source for both Indy and Star Wars. You might try "Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe" or "The Tiger Woman."

[@mattg-q3z]

Thank you, I'm with you! I'm really not super enthusiastic about Temple of Doom. Willie being one reason, but also this being a prequel simply didn't work. In Raiders, Indy outright says he doesn't believe in the supernatural, when one year earlier he was supposed to have experienced all this? That's just throwing a wrench into the machine for no reason at all. Now Last Crusade ... that was the first one I saw in the theater, and it holds a very special place in my heart. It again is very different from Raiders, and even more different from Temple of Doom. But I will never be able to decide if I prefer Raiders or Last Crusade. I think they're both absolutely excellent, and I cannot wait to see what you think.

[@angelfishluva291]

My personal favorite of the series. It is said its 'too dark" but to me its perfect!! I burned through at least 2 VHS copies of this movie.

[@VerowakReacts]

[@MikeBrown7799B]

Hello Miss Verowak!😊 There has been a lot of criticism over the years over Indiana's love interest and their chemistry in this one. Kate Capshaw would go on to become Mrs. Steven Spielberg. This prequel is my 3rd favorite in the original trilogy, even though Short Round is a fun character. The video arcade game for this film was quite popular. They used Voice snippets of characters from the film like Indiana saying "We walk from here!" and the Mola Ram saying "Welcome". The next film "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" is my favorite for many reasons.🏆 Great reactions to the Indiana Jones prequel, Vero!!!!🎬👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I wrote my comments about Willie before your outro. The problem with the stories for the films really started here. I don't recommend the films past the 3rd film for that reason.

I agree with your analysis: This movie is funny and back in the days, a way to sell more roller coasters in attraction parks but it's another Allan Quatermain pulp fiction. The first one is great. I do hope you will enjoy the third one. Sad there's no movie after the 3rd one... 😄The fourth is a video game for me. Oh, on another topic, have you ever seen the Goonies? IMHO, 1985 was the best year for any genre of popcorn american movies...

[@VerowakReacts]

[@positivelynegative9149]

"I hope her character gets better." 😬

[@jrivademarjr]

I know everybody has an issue with Willy’s character, but you have to remember the source material that Indiana Jones is based on. His character is based on the 1940s serialized action adventures that you would get at the movie theaters. She would be a typical damsel and distressed character from that time and actually more accurate to the overall tone of this Indiana Jones series. Marion is a fantastic character in the first movie, but she is definitely more of a modern day woman.

I saw this when it first came out. I was very disappointed. In fact, it took me years to finally appreciate it for what it is. None of the sequels compare to the first film IMO.

[@richiecabral3602]

This one came out when I was probably five years old, which is right about the time I was the age that I still have significant memories of. I might've even seen this in the theater, but I'm not quite certain of that, but this is the one that does stick out as significant to my childhood. Though now, despite the nostalgia, it is my least favorite of the original trilogy, and maybe all of them. The third one, The Last Crusade, has really been my favorite since I first saw it in the theaters. No spoilers as to why, but I'm looking forward to you seeing it!

[@JackyJames1]

Just too add , they made an awesome computer game for episode 3 ( pentium 34 - IBM ) back in the day lol it was awesome lol

[@MarcoMM1]

Great reaction like always. Indy didn’t get the girl. Steven Spielberg did. A few years after 'Temple of Doom' came out, Steven Spielberg met up again with Kate Capshaw (Willie)...they were both single and they fell in love. She converted to Judaism, and they are now one of the major power couples in Hollywood. Kate had a daughter from her previous marriage, who is also an actress. Her name is Jessica Capshaw, she is probably best known for her role on 'Grey's Anatomy' as pediatric surgeon Dr. Arizona Robbins. This is not my favorite of the Indiana Jones movies...the next one is. 'Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade' is by far my favorite. The idea of Mola Ram taking someone's heart out and burning it came from George Lucas, who felt his ex-wife did the exact same thing to him. There are some fun-facts about this movie. The exterior of Pankot Palace was realised through the use of both matte paintings & a set constructed at Elstree Studios here in the UK. The bridge & village sequences were filmed in Sri Lanka. Oh & the bats are fruit bats, not vampire bats. Harrison Ford suffered a severe spinal disc herniation by performing a somersault while filming the scene with the assassin in Jones's bedroom. A hospital bed was brought on set for Ford to rest between takes. Lucas stated, "He could barely stand up, yet he was there every day so shooting would not stop. He was in incomprehensible pain, but he was still trying to make it happen." The guard crushed by the roller was played by Pat Roach; the same actor who played the Nazi guard who is diced by the plane in Raiders!!! He also played General Kael in Willow. Keep up the good work.

[@VerowakReacts]

I've seen so many people say that they love the 3rd one the most!! Thank you for those fun facts, poor Harrison Ford, that is horrible, but I'm impressed he pushed through! A herniated disc is so painful 😨 I'm glad that some good came from Willie, in that Spielberg ended up marrying Kate Capshaw!!

Willie is an unmitigated pest on an epic scale, but in her defence that's how she was written. Not much Kate Capshaw could do about it, not being the most versatile actress in a very constricted role. I did like her in Black Rain (with Michael Douglas and Andy Garcia), though.

I had hoped you wouldn't be so hard on Willie. But it seems to be the concensus among reactors. For me she's just a fun side character way in over her head.

The love story wasn't weird. It was Hollywood. In movies, you get a handsome actor and a pretty actress in the same movie, their characters inevitably fall in love. Often at first sight. Handsome and pretty, that's all Hollywood needs; forget chemistry, common interest, or even getting to know each other.

To me, it's weird :)

@@VerowakReacts LOL, still? After all the movies you've watched. Handsome + pretty = Love. It's just math. Hollywood math. It's been that way since the early black and white movies.

28:20 "They didn't remove her heart or anything." As much as I might have liked to see her bare chest, I'd not like to see her heart removed from it. Also, Spielberg might not have liked to get that R rating for that.

One or two production big shots were going through costly divorces and painted Willie in their current view of women.
