W+G and Indiana Jones


It is mentioned in the Movie Connections list there are references to all three Indiana Jones movies here. Can someone list what exactly was used? I only remember a scene on the train (from the Wrong Trousers) when a switch is moved in advance so the second car turns in other direction, similar to the coaster chase in the Temple of Doom.

When Gromit goes over the edge of the cliff in his little motorised buggy-cum-airplane, it always reminded me of the scene in Last Crusade when the German bad-guy in chief goes headlong into the canyon in a tank. But I'm guessing.

The run on the conveyor belt when Preston throws the switch? The motorcycle ride through the tunnel maybe? Thre are things that REMIND me of Indiana Jones, but don't seem to be direct references.

They don't teach anything at University. I had to recognize ducksh*t for brains by myself.
