post a controversial entertainment opinion
steve martin is and was never funny. see the pink panther remake for evidence.
shareThe Indiana Jones movies are extremely mediocre.
shareTrue. Even the first one doesn't fair well on a second viewing.
The Temple of Doom was the best one, yet its hated on a wide scale
shareLast Crusade is best.
shareThats not controversial, its usually accepted to say that. Even though The Last Crusade is an excellent movie, I prefer Temple of Doom because it feels like a true adventure film. Theres no Nazis, the setting and ambiance is perfect, short round is there, "Kali ma, Kali ma, Kali MAAAA, Shuck di day"! You have minecart madness, and bridges over a chasm of crocodiles. Its high adventure! Its own story and setting where the world could have been in peril yet no one knew about it!
shareMost Indy fans would say anything but Raiders being best is sacrilege, but I only mention Crusade being best because, while I love Temple, Crusade has a much better artefact at its centre - the Holy Fucking Grail - which beats some meh Hindu rocks, and the interplay between Ford and Connery is absolute gold. Also Alison Doody might be the hottest woman ever.
I concur. Grew up around Indy movies and for some reason Last Crusade peaked my interest the most with Temple of Doom the least. I also played the old DOS game of Indiana Jones Last Crusade as well including Fate of Atlantis. Ah, good times.
shareDeeply wrong, the Indy Trilogy is a masterclass in filmmaking as well as being amongst the most entertaining and rewatchable films ever made.
shareI find the films boring and the premise of a college professor who also leaves for extended periods of time to be a death defying archaeologist to be ridiculous.
shareON THIS...WE AGREE.
shareIf you find The Indiana Jones Trilogy boring then your brain is damaged and you hate film, they are the very definition of expertly crafted filmic entertainment.

š²š² The Indiana Jones movies, especially I and III, are just great.
shareNow we must fight.
Raiders of the Lost Ark shits all over The Master, a movie what's story & directing lack a chromosome.
You don't want to fight me. I have an amazing right hook.

OK! OK! No more demonstrations! I yield! The Master is a perfect genius movie that shames the seed-scratching Raiders of the Lost Ark.
shareLol, yes. I actually enjoy the Mummy "rip-off" much more.
shareyes. indiana jones is so overrate!!
