One of my favorite moments in this film is at 32:08 when Jones Sr. calls Indy "Indiana". That might have been the first time his Dad has ever called him that and it instantly connected with his son. And he just tells him "Let it go" in a fatherly and nurturing way. Touching moment.

[@Luke101]

Absolutely agree. All Indy wanted was to feel validated by his father and he finally gets it.

To me the sentiment conveys that losing and disliking it is an experience common amongst us all. A young person may feel alone in that and should understand that well.. we all understand the feeling you know? A youth might not quite see that yet. Knowing that it’s a common thing can help them feel more connected with others and resolve to be that much more determined to get up, dust off, and keep on trucking because that’s just what we all have to learn to handle.

Except when she calls the jokes "dad jokes" like, what the fuck does that even mean? If she means, jokes involving Indy's dad, then fine. But there's this humorless generation who thinks anything witty is a "dad joke". What is comedy in this day and age? I can't think of one memorable comedy in the past 15 years.

[@DamonNomad82]

This was the first "Indiana Jones" movie I ever saw, and it's still my favorite of them. I later found out that three of the actors from this film were also in "The Empire Strikes Back". The obvious one is Harrison Ford as Han Solo, but the actor who played Donovan also played General Veers (who led the Imperial Walker force against the Rebel base on Hoth), and the actor who played Hitler also played Admiral Ozzel (who got Force choked by Darth Vader). I guess one could say Darth Vader was so evil that even Hitler was no match for him...

[@BillTheScribe]

There's another layer of humor here with Indy's dad being sort of a bumbling innocent when it comes to violence and the escape, because Connery was James Bond and has done all those same things.

[@Rocket1377]

I recommend watching Sean Connery's James Bond movies, so you can see him in his prime. The Indiana Jones series was influenced by the Bond films, and that is also why Spielberg and Lucas wanted to cast Connery as Indy's father.

[@jayeisenhardt1337]

Also watch The Rock(1996) as that movie kinda ties into Connery's and his Bond days. The only one to escape that prison, but his back story feels like he would be a captured Bond agent being held as his government disavowing his existence.

[@rcslyman8929]

@@jayeisenhardt1337 It's a little bit of a stretch as Mason was a Captain in the SAS (British Royal Army), while James Bond was a Commander in the Royal Navy Reserves. Of course, that's if you believe that James Bond is the name of an actual person, and not a moniker taken by different agents as they become 007 (popular fan theory that does not hold water with Casino Royale). However, Mason does say "Retired", which would have been his transit to MI6 as a covert operative, and he would have been disavowed after his capture and incarceration, something that very rarely happened to Bond. Long story short (too late), yes, they were drawing a reference to James Bond without infringing on the IP.

[@johnluujl]

4:57 Fun fact: their dog that could be seen lying in the house when he came running in was George Lucas' dog Indiana - not only the inspiration for the name "Indiana Jones" (actually how the character got that name IRL and in the story), but also the inspiration for Chewbacca, because in the car he'd always sit next to Lucas in the passenger seat

These movies were so popular there was actually a television series that Spielberg got on the air that tells the whole backstory of Indy from his youth to how he became an archeologist. It was called "The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles," and ran for two seasons from 1992 to 1993. Mostly the episodes start with Indy as an old man remembering his past exploits. It takes Indy from his time as a small boy in 1905 all the way up until he's in his mid 20's. He fought in WWI as a volunteer with the Belgian Army, was captured by the Germans and escaped, was posted afterwards to in the Belgian Congo, did espionage missions into Russia before the Revolution...it was a real thrill ride. Sean Patrick Flannery played Indy as a young man. If the series had been renewed for a third season, he would have crossed paths with characters he would meet in the movies, including Bellocq, the French guy from the first movie, Abner Ravenwood, Marion's father, although that takes place in 1909 before Marion was even born. He meets historical people, including Lawrence of Arabia, Charles de Gaulle (who is in the POW camp with him), and Pablo Picasso to name a few. Spielberg had a timeline for Indy's entire life up to the beginning of the first film with 70 episodes planned, but only 28 of the stories were filmed. Harrison Ford was offered a role to play where he, in middle age, relates the beginning of some episodes, but he turned it down. He did have a 'flash forward' cameo during the second season. Clint Eastwood was offered 10 million bucks to play Indy's older brother, but turned it down.

I don't think Last Crusade is better written than Raiders. Last Crusade has one annoying plot hole after another, which Raiders doesn't have. Plot holes that you don't notice until you're an adult. Not a plot hole, but one thing that really bugs me about Last Crusade is that Sallah is totally useless in the movie-- he has nothing to do in the whole movie as a character, other than what? Driving Indy around in a car? Sallah was vital to the plot in Raiders, but in Last Crusade, he's just brought back for fan service and is given nothing to do. That's NOT better writing than Raiders.

The guy in the beginning who gives young Indy his hat was called “Ravenwood” in the script- i.e., he’s meant to be Abner Ravenwood, Indy’s future mentor and Marion’s father who died before the events of Raiders.

[@gibbs615]

Was THAT who that guy was?! Abner? Marion's father and Indy's mentor?

[@Keff170882]

Very interresting, didn't know that.

[@scottb3034]

@@gibbs615 he was meant to be that but it was scrapped during shooting.

[@gibbs615]

@@scottb3034 Oh so I guess he was just a treasure hunter for hire then.

[@scottb3034]

@@gibbs615 pretty much. It's better that way anyway. Ravenwood was obsessed with the Ark not minor artifacts like a gold cross and he certainly wouldn't have been a grave robber for hire to some private party like "Panama Hat". If they were going to have Abner it would have been better as a dedicated prologue devoted to him not a minor secondary character with little screentime who inspired Indy's garb.

People always think I’m weird for loving movie and show reactions but I really enjoy sharing something with someone and it’s awful when you try irl and the person isn’t paying attention so movie reactions are great bc this doesn’t happen. Love your videos and channel!

[@Supervillegirl]

My parents will watch a movie with me they've never seen before, but won't pay attention the whole time, and then ask questions that I then have to pause the movie to explain. If you would pay attention, you wouldn't be confused.

[@chipsdad5861]

I am always nervous recommending movies because if the other person does not like the movie then they are stuck there because they don't want to say anything. I wish they would but they don't.

[@MrZackavelli]

They think you're weird? They sound like really dull people.

[@northshore1000]

I can relate!!!! For me, in my youth (I’m 59 now), great movies were sacred to me. There would be people I knew where I thought, “He HAS to see this!” Or, “She’ll be crazy over this!” And I remember plenty of watchings with these folks, and they’d talk during the video or get up to get something from the kitchen or seem uninterested. Always disappointed me. I get what you’re saying.

[@danharris5999]

When Lucas and Spielberg combined for the first movie, they had the fun serials from movies in theaters in mind from the 40's and 50's. The second one lost that , but they recaptured it in spades with The Last Crusade.

[@62SG]

Temple of Doom didn't necessarily lose that, they just drew from different influences: Classic horror movies, with some gangster and musical stuff in the beginning. It's just all redressed in the adventure serial style.

[@joeschmoe233]

Absolutely

[@catchannel1484]

The second one didn't lose it. If anything, Temple of Doom embraced it more than the other two. Raiders and Last Crusade were clearly inspired by them, but still aspired to be just a bit more. Temple of Doom not only embraced the feel of those serials (with some horror elements), but it even parodied them. Willie is a very clear parody of those old love interests, hence why she is written to be so annoying. And she is clearly meant to be annoying. The film admits it itself: "The trouble with her is the noise." Temple of Doom doesn't get enough credit. Its biggest flaw isn't its influence of those old serials, because the influence is still there. Its biggest problem is how [unintentionally] racially problematic it is. It's definitely the worst of the trilogy on an objective standpoint, but it's still my personal favorite.

[@BigBrianBruce]

I disagree I liked the second one even it’s the darkest of the OG trilogy, in my opinion it still captures the past but it’s more darker then the rest while 1 and 3 do have their dark moments but it’s in moments while the second the tone is just feels dark in general. The funny thing is Spielberg even admitted the film is dark as his excuse was he was gong through a divorce when he was making the second one

[@AMortalDefiant]

​@@catchannel1484 I don't even know that it's fair to say Temple of Doom is *objectively* the worst. In many regards, it's the best. The score from that movie sends chills down my spine. The others are "merely" excellent. The darkness, mystery, and magic of the Temple of Doom are what make it the most nostalgic of the three by a mile for me (as an 80s kid). As a kid, Mola Ram was a villain that evoked a visceral reaction from me; whereas the protagonists of the other two films just felt like bad people (the are still good villains, of course, but the scale isn't remotely the same). 9 times out of 10, I'll opt for that one when re-watching an Indy movie. It's a bit over-the-top, but so were the serials that inspired Lucas to write these movies (as well as Star Wars, to a lesser degree). It's also overlooking how insanely impressive a lot of Temple of Doom was from a technical/filmmaking standpoint. That minecart scene in pre-CGI days?! Holy crap, that was so impressive for the time, and still looks amazing.

[@michaelmiller44820]

22:34 Yes, it is! AND... Indy's guide at the very beginning of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" was Dr. Octopus!

[@darthphayde508]

Raiders is my favorite of the 3, but this one is an extremely close second. It has a different feel to it, almost like it has more heart to it, because of the father & son adventure.

[@SirPaladin]

despite how they look, Connery & Ford are only 12 years apart in age.

[@jonathanryan9946]

So Henry Jones Sr got an early start on becoming a father. Not too uncommon back the. ;-P

12 years is nothing when compared to : The Vikings (1958) Ernest Borgnine (born january 1917) plays the father of Kirk Douglas (born december 1916)

Out of all the Raiders films this is my favorite! The late Sean Connery was just an outstanding actor!

[@ComeOnIsSuchAJoy]

@@bessarion1771 Agreed. I feel as though it was the cognitive dissonance for many people of the series suddenly taking on '50s culture and phenomena after previously only ever being set in the '30s that put people off of it... along with the continued evolution of filmmaking, where things that were cheesy/goofy back then are considered normal by today's standards -- just as the things that seemed cheesy/goofy to people in "Crystal Skull" will likely seem normal in another 20 years or so.

[@wolfkniteX]

For you having a difficult time explaining what you do and why people find movie reactions appealing, I like to think of it akin to not only watching the film with a friend, but also being able to introduce a film you love to said friend, seeing their reaction and being able to share in this awesome experience of a film. And yes, in many ways it is like being able to relive watching a film for the first time, I know there are plenty of films that I'd have loved to experience for the first time without spoilers or any knowledge of the film.

[@jayeisenhardt1337]

I like her reactions and this way is much quicker than watching it all. Normally I'd remember everything and play it in my head before grabbing my copy if that wasn't enough. This is a lot less work and something new added on. People just love sharing the things that they love. So to see someone else enjoy it is just plain fun. Also reminds me of that bit Lily Tomlin did in "The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe" where she talking about a movie but the aliens were watching the audience and so impressed with that and their reaction because she forgot to tell them to watch the screen.

[@genghisgalahad8465]

I watch because I enjoy learning/teaching culture (albeit pop), but there truly is fact in fiction, so one cannot discount THIS aspect

You pointed out that this film is set AFTER the first film. That's why it's so funny when they're in the catacombs and he tells her he's "Pretty sure" that wall carving was the Ark of the Covenant...cause he had actually seen the real Ark back in the first film.

You sould watch the Hidden Gem that is "The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones"! It´s also made by Lucasfilm. Every episode is basicly a movie and it takes you through every major event in the westworld world from 1905 to 1927! It is truly a masterpiece!

I like sharing trivia with my friends when I watch movies, so here’s my favorite one for this movie.

Neat little reference.
