Are the fourth and fifth movie worth it???

Sean Connery and Harrison Ford is a match made in cinematic heaven. For his whole life, Indy saw his dad choosing the grail research over him, but at the end his dad chose saving him over saving the grail, and I always thought that was a powerful moment for Indy. And a perfect way to end the trilogy.

John Rhys-Davies wasn't just the voice of Gimli. He *was* Gimli, under a lot of make-up and using the same tricks they used to shrink the Hobbits down.

"Elsa" and "Let it go" sounds familiar. 😉🌨❄️

I love that the only ‘true’ cameo of Indiana Jones was at the beginning, when he was lying down on the floor… being a gooood boy! :)

Little fun fact. Sean Connery played the 1st James Bond, whose gun of choice was a Walther PPK. That’s the same gun that Henry gets shot with, so Bond gets shot with his own gun.

to answer Future Ang's question about Indy sleeping, he usually does it in travelling. Those iconic map sequences, Indy is grabbing some shut eye during them. We saw this briefly in the first movie when on the ship, Indy falls asleep while Marion is kissing him (in fairness he had been up something like 2 days straight). We often see Indy napping whenever possible while travelling, because on the scene he might not get much of a chance.

George Lucas named the character Indiana after his Alaskan Malamute. The dog Indiana would sit up in the passenger seat whenever Lucas would take him on car rides, thus also providing the inspiration for co-piolet Chewbacca. Short Round was the name of a bulldog owned by Temple of Doom screen writers Willard Huyck and Gloria Katz. While Willie was the name of Steven Spielberg's dog. Even stranger, Kate Capshaw (who played Willie) ended up marrying Spielberg seven years after they met on Temple of Doom.

The butler originally said, "If you are a Scottish lord, then I am Jesse Owens!" Referring to the Black American sprinter who defied Nazi expectations at the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Test audiences didn't get the reference, though, and it was changed in post.

Fun Fact: The character was named after George Lucas' dog, Indiana. (A Husky)

The disapproval on his dad’s face during the motorcycle chase always makes me laugh

And how was River Phoenix able to mimic the actions and speech patterns of Harrison Ford so well? They played father and son together in the nearly forgotten film, The Mosquito Coast.

14:55 Indy: "How Did You Know She's A Nazi?" Dr. Henry Jone: "She Talks In Her Sleep" A couple of Fun Facts foryou, Angelina: Henry's response in this scene was ad-libbed by Sean Connery When Sean Connery was originally offered the role of Indiana Jones' father, Dr. Henry Jones, he'd initially turned down the role because of the fact that he and Harrison Ford were 12 years apart in age in real-life

That knight was like, “Yeah, thanks for dropping by, trashing my temple… nah, no need to help clean up, it’s cool.”

Though they play father and son in this, Sean Connery and Harrison Ford were close enough in age to be brothers. The younger Indiana Jones is portrayed by the late River Phoenix, who was previously in Stand By Me and was the older brother of Joaquin Phoenix. The actors playing Walter Donovan and Hitler previously portrayed Imperial officers in The Empire Strikes Back

Fun fact, Hitler is played by the same actor as Admiral Ozzel. The guy Darth Vader chokes through the screen in Empire Strikes Back.

Sean Connery going "I'm sorry... they got us!" always gets me good!

Fun Fact: Harrison Ford and Sean Connery have only a 12 years difference between, but they’re chemistry is so good and believable, you completely by them as father and son, it’s so fun

That was an excellent ending to the Indiana Jones Trilogy.

This is my favorite Jones, even more so than Raiders. Sean Connery is brilliant init, and the chemistry between him and Ford is fantastic.

She really needs to react to all the james Bond Movies so she can truly appreciate Connerys Performance

So you've never seen or heard of Mr. Connery??

15:16 - "I believe in Brody" Everyone watching - Internal laughter intensifies

An underrated bit in this movie is that Indy's father is played by Sean Connery, an actor known for tough guy leading roles with decades in film, so you think "oh, that's where Indy gets it from! His dad is James Bond!"... then you meet him and he's playing against type as just a total buffoon.

Other than Harrison Ford, there are a couple of Star Wars actors who show up in this movie, both of them play imperial officers in Empire Strikes Back. Donovan is played by Julian Glover, who portrays General Veers in Empire, he’s the AT-AT commander who destroys Echo Base’s shields generator. The other is Michael Sheard who played the ill fated Admiral Ozzel, the first guy Vader strangles to death in Empire. Here, he plays a slightly more sinister role, filling the boots of one A. Hitler. Also, there a slight goof in the scene where he gives Indy his autograph, Michael Sheard signs his name with his right hand, while Hitler was left handed.

6:00 Ang, don't you remember, the last time Indy slept, the pilots jumped out of the plane he was on.

So many hits were coming in the summer of 1989. No way in the world that we the fans, were missing this one. No.1 film of 1989, Oscar winner for sound editing and for the planned trilogy, it was a great ending. Ford & Connery, although they were playing Sr. and Jr., they were actually 12 years apart in age. I loved it for being more than just an adventure story. At it's core, a story of father and son rebuilding their relationship and working together for a greater cause. Even greater is the inclusion of the other supporting characters (Sallah, Brody). Just because they've been there since the beginning like us. The opening scene with Young Indy, he was played by the late River Phoenix. It did inspired a tv series, "The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles", 2 seasons (28 episodes/4 TV movies). 2 more left in the franchise which are the most decisive. See for yourself and make up your own mind about them if their worthy final adventures.

Raiders is my favorite in terms of nostalgia & story, Temple is my favorite in terms of music & setting, and Last Crusade is just my favorite. It literally checks all of the boxes when it comes to a good movie.

Her name was Elsa and He said "Let it go." 😁

“We named the Dog Indiana” been waiting for that line throughout the entire movie

Second best Indy movie after Rotlr

I remember going to the midnight screening of this movie when it came out with the entire family. Everyone absolutely loved it. They were selling posters for the movie in the lobby and my parents bought one for me. I had it in my room for years.

Hey Ange! This is my favorite of the franchise. - Young Indy was played by the late River Phoenix, older brother of Joaquin Phoenix. River played Harrison's son in the film The Mosquito Coast. - Dr. Elsa Schneider was played by actress Alison Doody, who has not made many movies. Her first was a James Bond film (A View to a Kill, 1984). Her most recent was the worldwide Indian hit, RRR, and she plays a villainess in that movie. You should see it if you haven't. - Sean Connery was is only 10 years older than Harrison Ford, and this film created a friendship between the two that lasted until Sir Sean's passing in 2020. The reason he was cast was quite simple. One of the primary influences of Indiana Jones was the British super spy James Bond. Steven Spielberg had a dream of directing a Bond film, and kept getting rejected. So, George told Steven about this character while on vacation during the opening weekend of Star Wars in 1977. George said that Indiana Jones could be Steven's James Bond. So...when it came time to cast Dr. Henry Jones, Sr. Spielberg had a list one one name...the original James Bond 007, Sean Connery. Connery played 007 in a total of 6 official Bond films, and one unofficial film, playing the role from 1962-1967, returning in 1971, and ending ever playing the role in 1983...unless you count The Rock, which there is a whole fan theory that Connery's character is actually James Bond with a different name. I actually subscribe to the theory...but that's me. - Walter Donovan was played by Julian Glover, who did another little film for George Lucas called The Empire Strikes Back. He played General Veers, the commander of the AT-AT attack on Hoth. He also played Grand Maester Pycelle in Game of Thrones, if you watched that show. - Yes, Indiana was named after a dog. George Lucas's dog...and that dog, an Alaskan Malamute, was also the inspiration for Chewbacca in Star Wars. When the young Indiana gets home, the dog he passes to talk to his dad was an Alaskan Malamute.

On a related note, if you are interested in more John Rhys-Davies (Sallah, Gimli), I highly recommend the 1980 TV miniseries SHOGUN, where he turned in an awesome performance as Portuguese ship pilot Vasco Rodrigues.

Anytime somebody tries to mock you about which came first, all you have to do is go "Allan Quatermain, ha! Checkmate!" There was also a real-life archaeologist who is widely regarded as the real-life Indy.

Rest In Peace, Sean Connery. 🙏🏼🥀🕊

The used for the location of the grail is actually in the remains of Petra, in Jordan. The canyon is seen again in Stephen Sommers’ 2001 The Mummy Returns, and another part of the Petra complex houses the ‘Tomb of the Primes’ in Michael Bay’s Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen.

Out of all the side characters in the franchise, Short Round is the most memorable character in the series and one of the most memorable characters in cinematic history imo, and that's why Temple of Doom is good. As a movie though, I think this one is the best one.

In case no one else mentions it, a handful of actors in this film also just happen to be in James Bond films. The most obvious being Sean Connery, Henry Jones Sr., also being James Bond himself. Then Elsa's actress (Alison Doody) playing Jenny Flex in A View to a Kill in 1985, Walter Donovan's actor (Julian Glover) playing Kristatos in For Your Eyes Only in 1981, and one I tend to forget is Sallah (John Rhys-Davies) is General Pushkin in The Living Daylights in 1987. The Last Crusade started off as my favorite Indiana Jones film, but the more time has passed, the more Raiders of the Lost Ark kind of took over for me but it's a close battle, and Temple of Doom is still great even if I don't reach for that as much as the other two.

This one is my favorite and I'm so glad you got to see it finally!!

The film opens with the young Indy as a Boy Scouts near the turn of the century. A cool fact about Stephen Spielberg: he was an Eagle Scout and in 1989, I attended the national scout jamboree (basically, a big get-together of scouts from across the country) and saw him unveil the new Cinematography merit badge. I think it is so cool that he gave back to the scouting organization despite his busy schedule.

This year for Christmas I got my brother a replica of the grail diary and a movie accurate Grail. This is also my favorite one, this was the perfect ending to a perfect trilogy watching them ride off the sunset was as good as it gets. Also We named the dog Indiana makes me want to name one of my dogs Indiana

John Rhys-Davies didn’t just play Gimli in LotR he also was the voice of Treebeard.

Love your comments and they are so honest ❤❤❤ thank you

The fedora guy in the beginning was supposed to be Abner Ravenwood, Marion's father

"Book burning, tragic and a representation of the genocide to come." Ange giving us a little history to go with our vintage movie. I believe what comes before book burning, is book banning... Also Ange, people are going say not to watch any of the Indiana Jones ones after this, but they're not BAD movies per-se, they aren't as good as Raiders or Crusade, but they are absolutely worth watching and reacting to.

A fun fact, it´s when young Indy uses the whip and gets a scar himself in the chin. Harrison Ford, in real life, has a scar in the same place, but in his case was due to a car crash when he was young. Another fun fact it´s that Sean Connery and Harrison Ford (who played the roles as father and son), have only twelve years of difference between them. Sean had 59 here and Harrison 47 (but Sean looks more older than him).

4:46 That's George Lucas' dog Indiana, who was an inspiration for Chewbacca and the source of Indy's name. It's also named Indiana in-universe.

* Indy's schooling is interesting. In "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull", he mentions that he's a "tenured" professor. However, if you watch *The* *Adventures* *of* *Young* *Indiana* *Jones* and the 2nd half of the episode: *Young* *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Curse* *of* *the* *Jackal* 1916, *Young* *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Mystery* *of* *the* *Blues* 1920, and read the novels *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Peril* *at* *Delphi* 1920-1922, and the novel *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Dance* *of* *the* *Giants* 1925, you discover that Indy dropped out of high school in March of 1916(during Spring Break). * Then in February to April of 1917 is the episode *Young* *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Attack* *of* *the* *Hawkmen,* and in September of 1918 is the episode *Young* *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Masks* *of* *Evil.* Indy was then transferred from "Belgian Army Intelligence", to the "American Expeditionary Force"(A.E.F.) of the "U.S. Army Air Service"(U.S.A.A.S.), and flew a "Martin MB-1 Bomber" with "Jock Lindsey" in the "Meuse-Argonne Offensive" of WWI. Immediately after that, is the episode *Young* *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Treasure* *of* *the* *Peacock's* *Eye* which is the same diamond that Lao Che was gonna give to Indy(in "Temple of Doom"), but then it was lost(however, Short Round tracked it to Hawaii in 1957, and informed Indy of this). * Indy then moves back to Princeton, NJ and begins working on his G.E.D. After this, in May of 1919, the episode called *Young* *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Winds* *of* *Change* takes place. He finishes the work on his G.E.D., a little late, and then applied at the "University of Chicago". Despite the fact that it was past the deadline, his father manages to pull some strings for him so that he could begin taking a major in "Linguistics", but he had some catching up to do for starting late. Also as a result, he was gonna have to wait until May of the following year to receive his GED along with the college graduates. Shortly after this, he moved to Chicago. For one of his elective classes, he takes "Archaeology 101". * This is where he meets Abner "Fedora Garth" Ravenwood, the professor of the class. He recognized him as the man who gave him his first fedora in the desert of Utah in 1912. They become fast friends, and he meets Abner's 15 year old daughter "Marion"(Indy is 20 years old at this time). In January of 1920, he applied at the "Sorbonne University" in Paris, France(and he spent a lot of time in France during WWI). This is where the episode "Young Indiana Jones and the Mystery of the Blues" takes place. Then, the prologue of the novel "Indiana Jones and the Peril at Delphi" takes place. * He is then accepted by Sorbonne University, and moves to Paris in June of 1920, but while en route, the episodes: *Young* *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Scandal* *of* *1920* and *Young* *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Hollywood* *Follies* takes place. His credits from the University of Chicago transfer over to the Sorbonne University. This is where he meets fellow student "Rene Belloq". They compete with each other, often in the form of classroom debates and love interests. He finishes his basic studies in May of 1921. Then the rest of the novel "Indiana Jones and the Peril at Delphi" takes place. * Then, the prologue of the novel *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Unicorn's* *Legacy* takes place(I think). He then receives his Bachelor's Degree in "Archaeology" in May of 1923, and he receives his Master's Degree in "Archaeology" in May of 1924. In 1925 Indy completes his thesis. Only to have it stolen from him by, none other than, Belloq. Indy knew that Belloq stole his thesis, but unfortunately there was no way to prove it. So he quickly began to work on another thesis, and it turned out to be even better than his first one, putting Belloq to shame. He receives his Ph.D. in "Archaeology" in May of 1925. * Then, in August of 1925, fellow archaeologist, and friend of the family, "Marcus Brody", helps Indy land his first teaching job in London, where he falls in love with a Scottish grad-student of his named "Deirdre Campbell", and eventually ends up marrying her. It is heavily implied that one of Indy's very first students, was "Wu Han"(as seen at the beginning of "Temple of Doom"). He mentions in the film that he had followed Indy on many adventures. Yet he is never mentioned, and never appears in any of Indy's adventures. Strange. * Also, this is around the time when archaeologists "Ernest Forrestal" and "Rene Belloq" prove to be his 2 top competitors. However, Indy was more of an "Antiquarian" than an archaeologist. Also, *Indiana* *Jones* *and* *the* *Raiders* *of* *the* *Lost* *Ark* wasn't the first, or last, time Indy was hired by U.S. Army Intelligence. Those two reasons are why Indy had so many adventures. While other "archaeologist" had "0" adventures. Aaahhh, now it makes sense. O.k., now I get it. I love how someone did a montage video of Indy cracking his whip, to the song called *Whip* *It* by "Devo". That's cool.

This one is probably my favorite, in no small part because it was the first Indiana Jones movie I saw. I also saw it a lot when it would pop up airing on TV, and my dad and I would end up watching the rest of it from whatever point it was at. My dad also quotes "We named the dog Indiana!" randomly sometimes, which just adds to my fondness for this film.

29:00 When Elsa couldn't let it go

Indy's Father: "What do you want to talk about?": Indy: "Two years ago, I held the Ark of the Covenant on my hands. How's that?" Just saying...Indy DID have something interesting to talk about.

10:40 Exact opposite for me. I could handle the snakes. I would have had a very hard time making past the rats. And yes, that is Arches National Park in Utah! Balanced Rock and Double Arch in particular are highlighted. Loved your reactions to the glorious Indy movies! It is so fun to watch you geek out over the cinematography, and you show me things that I've never noticed before when you do ^_^

River Phoenix, brother of Joaquin Phoenix as young Indy. RIP

This is the best and greatest Indian Jones movie, and I’m confident that it will always be that way. Such a great film, peak Harrison ford

That final show of all of our heroes riding off into the sunset is absolutely perfect!

Not only is John Rhys-Davies Gimli, but he's also Treebeard.

The location for the ancient church/temple facade carved into the rock was Petra in Jordan.

27:45 Donovan, like Elsa, claimed to only be working with the nazis put of convenience but when he dies, his nazi party badge is all that's left of him

You know, I just realized I'm truly surprised that Disney hasn't made an animated series about Indiana Dog's adventures yet.

It is scientifically accurate that if you have a liquid which is burning at the surface where it meets with the air, separated at that surface level from a section of the liquid which is not burning, the fire will not spread across the boundary. However, there is fire inside the casket in the shot of the interior, so they should be burning to death in that bad boy, at least until all the oxygen gets used up. And then they have a different problem. One of the things you might not pick up on with Elsa is that she doesn't tell anyone that Indy and his dad have escaped until official word reaches Berlin from the castle. She keeps her meeting with Indy in Berlin to herself. She is ambitious, self-serving and greedy. She is also in service to the Nazis, but I really think that one's a bridge too far for her.

Julian Glover (Donovan) also played the lead Bond villain "Kristatos" in "For Your Eyes Only" (1981).

This movie is a timeless classic. I love all indy movies and this one is up there only beaten by raiders. Its nice to know that new people are reacting to legendary movies

John Rhys-Davies was actually on my flight coming back from Atlanta a couple months ago and I got to meet him briefly. Such a nice guy

The super cool outside of the temple at the end is a real place, Petra in Jordan! (Sadly it is the front for only a small interior chamber, not a huge secret maze.)

The Indiana Jones trilogy holds a special place in my heart, the whole series actually stops my father from drinking. So when there's a marathon on TV he doesn't pick up a beer bottle, even after his death I still watch knowing this sobered up my father even for a while.

The big burly Henchmen who indy had a fistfight with in each of these 3 movies, were all played by the same person, an English wrestler by the name of Pat Roach. He passed away in 2004.

Second best one after Raiders of the Lost Ark IMO. Sean Connery and the actor that plays Marcus Brody brings a great sense of comic relief to the movie. So good.

Saw them all in the theaters when they first came out and loved them all, but Temple of Doom is my favorite, it was so much fun and such a wild ride, and yes, Short-Round rules!

5:21 "So do you!" says a guy who's propably in his 80s

8:29 that is the general who commanded the giant walkers in Empire Strikes Back, and he was the Grand Maester in Game of Thrones.

This is my fave indie movie, i remember watching it as a kid and being amazed

You might be the first "Indiana Jones" newbie I've ever witnessed, who isn't absolutely astounded by learning that Sean Connery plays Indy's father. 😮😮😮

Your joy at seeing Sallah, chef's kiss!

this movie is a absolute classic and i love it

It's even more interesting when you dive deep into who's books they were burning.

"Utah! Called it!" Yup, Arches National Park, in fact. Very cool place to visit. Which I guess means Indy was raised in Moab?

Yup, Indy's father is James Bond, Agent 007 (captain of _The Red October)._ Sallah wasn't Gimli's voice - he was the entire Gimli (and the Professor on _Sliders)._ This is my favorite!

11:08 - Yup. Whether he could really leave to look around and come back is another story.

Hitler had in his hands what he had been searching for. The diary of the grail, and he gave it right back. Ironic.

ANGIE, YES PLEASE DO 2 REACTIONS TO KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL(PART 4) AND THE DIAL OF DESTINY (PART 5)🕵🏾‍♂✌🏾

River Phoenix as young Indy is perfect and he did such a fantastic job RIP River Phoenix

This is my favorite Indiana Jones movie. I think I met John Rhys-Davies in a tv show called sliders, but it may have been these.

Speilberg has always wanted to a Bond movie. When he couldn't get one, George Lucas came to him with the script for Raiders and said, "I've got something better." So when they did this movie, they had to get the "first" Bond to play Papa Jones.

There was also a "young indiana jones" TV series at one point. It was pretty decent from what I remember.

Last time I saw this movie was with my grandparents, and there's a slight detail I can no longer unsee. My grandad pointed out that if you pay attention to Henry Jones sr after the tank goes over the cliff, you can see his beard shortens after Indy climbs back up. Did Sean Connery shave in between shots?

Indy sleeps whenever he can. He slept a bit on the boat in crusaders, and cooked out on the plane in the second movie

I appreciate your sarcastic commentary ❤❤❤

Angelina: Bring back Marion! Steven Spielberg: Will do.

Her name was Elsa, but she wouldn't 'Let it go.' 'Last Crusade' is my favourite, I saw 'Temple of Doom' in the cinema when it first came out. I didn't see 'Raiders' until it was on TV not long before 'Last Crusade' was in cinemas.

When I was a kid I'd spend summers at my Grandma's house. And one summer Last Crusade would play on HBO every day. And I'd watch it every day! 😎

Sean Connery has a great movie catalog you can explore. Goldfinger, The Rock, Entrapment.

Sallah didn’t only play as Ghimli, he was also Treebeard in the movies

Sean Connery played as Indiana Jone's father, who played as James Bond in the film franchise.

Great reaction to the perfect finale of the Indiana Jones trilogy! And the backstory to Indy's hate of snakes, the scar on his chin, his whip, and his hat just were even better! Also the third appearance of Pat Roach, who died as a Sherpa and the boxer in the first movie, as the Thugee pulled into the grinder by his sash in the second movie, and as a Nazi seen briefly with the officer hurrying to get onto the zeppelin before it leaves. He died in this one too, but the scene ended on the cutting room floor. 😕 But, still, his double death duty in the first movie still means he averages one on screen death per movie. 😀 As much as I love the first and the second (my least favorite because of Willie, but Short Round makes up for it), this one is my overall favorite. After it came out a lot of my friends called me Kazim for a while thanks to my curly hair and extreme summer tan (plus my faith) which I kinda liked. If I had ever gotten a tattoo it would likely have been the cruciform sword. 😛

Filmed in Moab Utah in Arch’s national park and my home town

Gold has a natural antibiotic property (Silver even more so)... So the water held in the gold basin would have been fine. A better question might be where the knight has been going poopies for 700 years.

Excellent timing I was just gonna go scare some birds tooktooktooktooktook

I really like The action And The father son Got along with each other I was really surprised when I first saw the movie

The "Micky Mouse" from the Buttler at 12:26 was a voiceover.. can't tell what he originally said. Who knew Sean Connery could do comedy? Fun Fact - the "No Ticket" speech from Indy was used again in the 1999 film Dogma by Silent Bob.
