[@stefantsarev4442]

I have watched this scene hundreds of times and it still gives me chills.

@@AndrewTalavera-q6c Growing up in the 90's and 2000's, this is the kind of movie I wish they would bring back! I miss movies like this! This scene is still incredibly awesome and Johns music adds so much. Going from beautiful and mysterious to nightmare fuel in a second!

@@sguinn91 I totally agree with you John Music is Incredibly awesome it does have Nightmare fuel to it in a second

I went to see Raiders loads of times when it first came out. If it was showing at a cinema in a different place I would go and see it. I loaned my Dad the paper back of the movie and he enjoyed it. He was a very quick reader. After he finished the book he said you should read it, it's great. Actually Dad, I said, I'm going to see the film at the pictures tonight. Went to see Raiders and I loved it. And like I say I went time and time again to see it. I've even seen Raiders in IMAX just 10 years ago and it looked amazing. Can you imagine what it would be like in 4Dx with seats shaking etc during the movie? Today I have Raiders of the lost ark on 4k and it looks and sounds fantastic.

Fun fact this is how silent films used to work

[@lautarogomez9711]

Just music and text images, right?

[@martinmanifold2241]

They had someone playing a piano in the theatre

My favorite scene in the whole movie. I love the face melting.

[@johnkennethwiseman5460]

The audience clapped but quickly stopped when the orchestra played the next tune. But during the rest, they never made a sound. Maximum respect.

[@vincentbracq3006]

With the HD one can really see that the nazis corpses at the end were actually GI joe action figures.

[@chrispopsjunior8978]

One of cinema 's greatest moments

[@DrasticFox2004]

And scariest, for a PG movie. There’s also Jaws, but then again almost that whole movie is scary.

I like how they changed belloq and dietriches scream but not tohts

[@erniemeyer1342]

I think thats a alternativ version. In the German dub it is also this scream

[@joeytaylor1021]

Before they die or as they die?

@@scripsscraps the german dub

[@mohamedtoure4388]

@@scripsscraps All non-American dubs had this version of the screams as well as slightly different music. The non-American versions used different parts of "Miracle of the Ark" track in from score (you can find the full version which contains both the American and non-American versions of the score in the released soundtrack). From the "Miracle of the Ark" track I believe the whole ark ceremony was longer but trimmed in the final cut. If you want the alternate screams (and score) just watch any non-American version of this scene.

I'd love to see this film with a live orchestra so bad! It's one of my all-time favorites and as a musician that would be such an awesome experience

[@rorysnow7937]

I really want to see a live orchestra show with the film too. Hopefully you get your wish

[@menslady125eif2590]

This is my favorite part of the movie!

[@johntaylor6345]

I would love to see Raiders on screen playing to a live orchestra. This video is amazing. Raiders is my favourite Indy movie. I just love it.

Old AND New, the desecrators are destroyed but the heroes who showed the proper respect were not only spared but rewarded, as their bonds were cut

[@jakewayne4245]

so cool the they get real made music live . AAAAAA+++++++.

[@sethsantiago5059]

How entertaining this is.

[@ckeledjian]

2:24 Come on Spielberg, come back and edit this bit again to give more time for the theme in the horns to finish its musical repeat, as it appears in the released soundtrack. All you need is a couple of seconds of footage, so Williams music is not cut.

[@Hank40567]

I hate watching this in the movie theatre when I was a kid I cry but I stay quiet

[@tonybarde2572]

This sounds similar to Palpatine's theme

[@Liewhohon]

wow cool effect of the opening the ark italian

[@godzillaboyusa]

So different!

[@MikeSparrow]

I swear the screams for Paul Freeman and Wolf Kahler sound completely different to the version I've grown up with.

[@thunderbolt2145]

They are. This was probably a different mix for foreign release or something.

[@relaxation-connection]

How did they get home from the island?

[@DS8379]

Lucky crowd! This is awesome. Interestingly, the only reason Marion and Indy lived is because they closed their eyes and didn't see what was in the Ark, which was meant only for the eyes of the Temple priests.

[@ShawndaPrawn]

It probably didn’t help Belloq’s case that he was essentially cosplaying as one. I’m pretty sure that might count as sacrilege or something.

[@beatricesanfilippo6925]

1:55 Han Solo told you audience to not Watch his Four years Old son Ben that he killed brutally Thrawn When are you watching the Mandalorian, I'm not joking because Is set before the force awakens

[@stephenvanderberg9084]

Belloq dressed like the high priest with the breastplate and the urim and thummim (stones on his shoulders) @ the staff didn't save him, gestapo toht and the other nazis from wrath poured out.

[@billd3356]

I'm glad you recognized Toht as Gestapo, many think he was SS
