INDIANA JONES: THE LAST CRUSADE Movie Reaction! | First Time Watch! | Harrison Ford

[@Jordashian93]

RIP Sean Connery and River Phoenix 😢

[@StephenLuke]

They both died on Halloween.

[@inarar5334]

The best part of "we named the dog Indiana" bit is that he WAS named after a dog. George Lucas had a dog named Indiana and he absolutely named the character after him.

[@Crespwnian]

This is indeed correct it, it is the same type of dog you see in the intro of the movie an Alaskan Malamute as an additional bit of trivia it was also George's inspiration for Chewbacca from Star Wars.

[@pistonburner6448]

Even funnier: the dog was named after a US state! Hahaa! And that state was named after it having been inhabited by indigenous American tribes! And those tribes were called Indians because Columbus thought he had found India! And India the country's name comes, according to the Oxford English Dictionary (third edition 2009), is derived from the Classical Latin India, a reference to South Asia and an uncertain region to its east. In turn the name "India" derived successively from Hellenistic Greek India, ancient Greek Indos, Old Persian Hindush (an eastern province of the Achaemenid Empire), and ultimately its cognate, the Sanskrit Sindhu, or "river", specifically the Indus River and, by implication, its well-settled southern basin. The ancient Greeks referred to the Indians as Indoi, which translates as "The people of the Indus". This river Indus in turn was known to the ancient Indians in Sanskrit as Sindhu and the Persians as Hindu which was regarded by both of them as "the border river". The variation between the two names is explained by the Old Iranian sound change *s > h, which occurred between 850 and 600 BCE according to Asko Parpola. From the Persian Achaemenid Empire, the name passed to the Greeks as Indós. It was adopted by the Romans as Indus.

For me, the fun partnership between Harrison Ford and Sean Connery is what gives Last Crusade the edge over Raiders. Then again, every time I watch it, I notice some other cool parallel or moment. Did you notice how everything Indy said in his college lecture was wrong (following maps, X marks the spot) - apart from starting the search in the library!? Just THIS TIME WATCHING with you I spotted how Indy was undone by not following Donovan's advice not to trust anyone, but Donovan himself is undone by trusting Elsa! Donovan is played by Julian Glover - General Veers in Empire Strikes Back and Grand Maester Pycelle in Game of Thrones. He was also the villain in James Bond movie For Your Eyes Only, which is cool considering Sean Connery was best known as Bond... and it looks like Donovan's gun appears to be James Bond's Walther PPK!

Crystal Skull is the weakest of the films so far, but there is still a lot to like. Indy is still Indy. But it definitely will be necessary watching for the fifth.

WE NAMED THE DOG INDIANA

[@gluuuuue]

The idea of Willie's character probably seemed better than the execution. As Capshaw herself said, she had pretty consistently pursued playing what we would consider today as Strong Female Characters, journalists, PhDs, accomplished, independent female roles (checkout SpaceCamp where she played alongside River Phoenix's brother, a very young Joaquin, then going by Leaf Phoenix). Then Capshaw decided to play this for a change of pace, a shrieky, whiny, near-constant Damsel-in-Distress trope, pretty much for fun and in order to play against her usual type for once. Aaand, it ended up being one of the roles she unfortunately became most well-known for. As Spielberg said though, about the one good thing that came from the movie was he and Capshaw falling in love and getting married. (And they still are today.) But Elsa *is* a better-written character and more interesting. I also think the way the movie portrays her character is a bit ambiguous (which might be a fault of the editing). In general, she seems devoted to archaeology, but in an amoral way, similar to Donovan. When she's crying at the book burning scene, it seems like it's possible they're perhaps tears of joy or devotion to the Nazi cause? Which wouldn't be out-of-character since she's a Nazi. Or that she's genuinely put off by the book burning because of the destruction of knowledge, which she considers valuable as an archaeologist/treasure hunter. Likewise, she's upset at Henry being shot, and the weird satisfied look on her face when she sees Donovan drink from the incorrect grail confused me for a long time, because when she says, "It would not be made of gold," her tone sounds slightly surprised or like she's correcting a mistake she genuinely made in her grail choice. But I think now she was supposed to be an opportunist, like Donovan. She's not that with the Nazi cause, but she's also not disgusted enough by it to be at bothered by their general actions, except maybe the book burning. As Henry said, she thought she found a prize. So she wanted glory. (I consider this ambiguous since, though she's not a good person, it's easy to also dismiss her as Just Another Nazi.)

[@olivierroussin4432]

I really like what you say about Elsa, how nothing is clear about her side, but she is a backstabber for sure and wanted the graal for herself, she is definitivly evil in some way

[@gluuuuue]

@@olivierroussin4432 Yeah, an’ I think that’s ultimately why we the audience are probably supposed to feel some sense of “well that’s a shame” at her death but also that, along some dimension, it wasn’t entirely undeserved either. Both she and Donovan “played with fire” too much so to speak. Think Mac in CS was similar (except nobody probably cared about him anyway to begin with, insofar as they cared for the story).

[@rowenatulley852]

I don't think Elsa was surprised or made a mistake. I think she was making a statement for the audience . . .

[@baeleth]

Me personal ranking from best to least best (they're all great) is 3, 1, 4, 2. Don't listen to the haters. Crystal Skull is fun and, while it's not the best of them, I think it's also not the least of them.

[@codyprice2616]

Definitely watch Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. You’ll get views either way how much you like or maybe how much you don’t. Either way be fun reaction to the viewer watching the video on KZbin. I personally like it. I don’t love it, but it is watchable. It can be a fun watch if you don’t go expecting it to be as good as the other three. Just an enjoyable action flick that you can make fun of some of the over the top action scenes, but not a terrible film. Feels more like a live action Saturday morning sci fi action adventure show more than any of the others, which is what it was intended to be. Just nobody expected that and it is more a disappointment than a bad film.

[@joevictor53]

Agreed. It is flawed but it gets way too much hate from people that watched it once and then never gave it a second chance. Often people that come into the series fresh or rewatch it after a while tend to enjoy it.

[@itzbp9949]

Glad to see some defenders here. I enjoy the 4th one a lot too. I think the new film is gonna be really crap so maybe people will change their minds after it's come out

[@ronweber1402]

I like it better than Temple of Doom. Willie's constant screaming was such a turnoff, it just drove me nuts not to mention the zero chemistry between Kate Capshaw and Harrison Ford.

[@joevictor53]

Maybe try the 4th one yourself instead of skipping because of what others say. The haters are kinda crazy with hate and refuse to give it a second chance. A lot of people hated the prequel trilogy back when they came out but enjoy them now. Indy 4 is no different but the toxic haters are still in that phase of hating it for 2 decades before giving it another try.

I saw this movie in the theater back in 1989 and watched it later on VHS with my dad. It's my favorite Indiana Jones movie as well. Oh, and please watch Kingdom of the Crystall Skull. While it's by far the worst Indiana Jones movie it's still an entertaining adventure and I'm sure it would make for a great reaction video!

[@Brian25091]

The actor who played Donovan should look familiar, he played in Empire Strikes Back and he most recently played Maester Pycell in Game of Thrones.

[@MsOsgood9]

The actor you were wondering about is Julian Glover who played Grandmæster Pycelle in Game of Thrones.

[@shainewhite2781]

YES!!! The ultimate father and son story. RIP, Sean Connery and River Phoenix. Before Connery was cast as Henry Jones, Sir Laurence Olivier was considered to play the role, but fell ill with Pneumonia and had to drop out. Gregory Peck (To Kill A Mockingbird) was also considered. Olivier passed away on July 11, 1989, two months after the film's release. The original script involved Indy battling ghosts in a haunted Scottish castle as the opening scene, but it was rejected after deemed too similar to Steven Spielberg's Poltergeist. Another draft had Indy battling The Monkey King over the mythical Fountain Of Youth. It was settled that Indy and his father would fight off the Nazis for the Holy Grail. The film was a box office and critical success, making $474 million dollars ($930 million dollars today) against a $60 million dollar budget. It won the Oscar for Best Sound Editing.

[@zmani4379]

Olivier would have been amazing - but there's a great symmetry to the idea that Indy's dad is James Bond, which is true in a sense - he's even dressed as Bond in Shanghai in Pt 2 - I wish they'd coughed up the money to bring back Connery in Pt 4

[@ChrisTheAspergerGuy]

Absolutely you two should do a reaction to Indy 4! If you're gonna watch it before the new one comes out anyway, then why the hell not? I honestly don't understand the hate it gets. It has some silly moments, even for this franchise, but it's not terrible by any stretch. You two can judge for yourselves when you see it. I'm very curious to see what you think. As far as Last Crusade, this one still remains my favorite out of all of them so far. I'll see how it ranks after the 5th one comes out, though.

[@dupersuper1938]

[@jimspetdragons3737]

The first 2 films were released BEFORE PG-13 rating was created/applied (7/1/1984). That's why they have the PG rating. From what I've heard, the new (5th) film promises to be a real bomb of a movie (meaning terrible), but let's wait & see. 4th film isn't terrible, but is not that good.

[@gluuuuue]

Lol. So Spielberg actually went through the trouble of having mechanical/robotic rats made for the burning shots. He said he had no love for rats at all. Might've even called them disgusting. "But I'm still not gonna set them on fire.." 🤣 In one of the behind-the-scenes for this movie, when Spielberg was directing the Nazi salute shots from the higher-ups for the Berlin Rally scene, he told the cast, "And remember: behind your backs, you're all gonna be doing this:" and held up his hand with his fingers crossed. But Indiana Jones is ultimately a pulp, action-adventure story as was common for the early 20th century, though an '80s take, so the depiction of the Nazis is a caricature and slightly comical in ways, just like the depictions of the Thuggee cult, or the Shanghai mob boss. In contrast to the starkly different and much more realistic depiction by the same director in Schindler's List. Here, they're evil but also easily punchable by a lone rugged hero. (Also, Admiral Ossel from Empire Strikes Back here playing Hitler. And Julian Glover was also in ESB as another Imperial officer, the one who lead the AT-AT attack on the Rebel Hoth Base!)

[@michaeltrivette1728]

Yes dude we get it. Everyone hates Nazi's. I kinda think that was the point. Indiana Jones is going up against the worst of the bad guys. But having you comment on it every 5 seconds just takes me right out of the movie. Django Unchained might be one of (if not the) the greatest movies ever made. But having some doosh comment "umm slavery bad" every 5 sec. kinda ruins the movie. Slavery bad Nazi bad Kiddie diddlers bad yes we all know thanks Captain Oblivious

I've never seen anyone go on so much about how they don't like nazis and how horrible they are. Why would you feel the need to point that out so much? Do you think your audience is pro-nazi? Do you think people will assume you are pro-nazi if you don't go on and on about being anti-nazi? Do you think people don't know how horrible nazis are? News Flash: Virtually everyone is anti-nazi. You don't need to signal to the world that you are also. Everyone's default perception is anti-nazi unless they do something to signal otherwise. 🤦‍♂️

Indiana Jones and TOD- was PG 13, Not Crusade, That's how it got released. Spielberg talked to rating guy and he gave it to spielberg for the film.

[@McKamikazeHighlander]

What's interesting is that second blade on the "Penitent man will pass" trial, which Indy gets past by doing a forward roll after kneeling. Steven Spielberg addressed this by saying that the Christians who built the Grail Temple in the 12th Century were probably more worried about Muslims getting their hands on the Grail than anyone else. Muslims show penitence not by kneeling (as a Christian would) but by bowing. The second blade would decapitate anyone that bows
