Lara Croft vs Indiana Jones. Epic Rap Battles Of History.

Almost none of Indiana's lines make sense. He fires shots that only make him look even worse. Trashing her game, while having the sad Indiana Jones game garbage that she mentioned. Saying that her game is overshadowed by Uncharted, again meaning that his is overshadowed by both. Trashing her looks while being old. Hiding behind John Williams's score which would only work if she was up against John Williams. The list goes on.

[@phillipstroll7385]

I didn't get it. Who is chase and what is x

[@nastybaconenergy]

​​​​@@phillipstroll7385 Chase was Lara Croft’s former lover. He was killed during one of their treasure-hunting expeditions. “Tap that X in time” is referring to quick-time events in video games, where the player has to quickly perform an action to succeed - usually, tapping a button, sometimes repeatedly, before time runs out. So, Indiana Jones is saying that Chase died because Lara failed a QTE. And he also makes a pun on “X (button)” and “ex(-boyfriend).” That pun, then, fits with the slang meaning of “tapping someone,” which is to have sex with them. So, Indy is also saying that she’ll never again be with Chase, and she’ll never start a family with him.

I loved The Crash Bandicoot reference AND The Nude Code reference.

[@ICTheAlchemist]

I feel like Lara objectively had the harder bars but “honey just the first four notes of my theme exceed everything you’ve done” is insurmountable (plus the way they wove a minor interpolation of the Indy theme into the beat) like… that’s facts 😭

These battles are the definition of quality over quantity. Sure we don't get as many as we used to, but you can see them putting so much effort into the ones we do get.

Man, I grew up watching ERB, and the fact that they’re still making videos is awesome. They’ve been a constant part of my life in a way, I wouldn’t know how to feel if they stopped. It’s such a nostalgic feeling seeing an ERB upload pop up in my notifications. I remember my friends and I talking about them and quoting them all the time back in school at lunch and between classes. We graduated a few years ago, and even though we’ve all moved on to different things in our lives, work, college, etc, we all still keep in touch. And every time ERB posts a new video, one of us asks in the group chat, “Did ya’ll see the new ERB?” And we’ll talk about them just like we used to lol. Some things never change. Thank you ERB, keep it up. 🙏

Dr. Jones takes this one. Lara succumbing to wokeness isn't something she can ever recover from. Although, knowing ERB's history with these themes, they probably wanted her to win for this very reason.

[@vladFirke]

Thanks!

[@NOWABO]

"You're not John Williams, so you ain't scoring" is the PERFECT line from Lara Croft because it fits with the idea that Indiana isn't good enough to get with her AND it's a rebuttal for Jones' brag about his theme song being more accomplished than her. "You're not John Williams, you don't get to take credit for your theme."

[@cobaltsnake1661]

and add to that the play on words with music score, truly an amazing line

[@lisamarieligreci-newton7804]

It's also the second time John Williams has been used to dis somebody for being the secret to their success, which delights me to no end.

[@DemBigOlEyes]

I preferred Indy's line about Chase, and her not being able to save him simply for not tapping the 'x' button fast enough, which is a diss to her lore and to the format of her games being a bunch of quick-time events and basically a semi-walking simulator that Uncharted did much better.

[@thomhind6647]

Well actually without Indiana then there wouldn't even be a theme. So he's right to brag on it.
