I guess you've never heard of a Pan Am Clipper. "The Pan Am Clipper was a type of transoceanic airplane flown by Pan American Airways. Designed as a flying boat, the planes used the water to take off and land, bypassing the need to build concrete runways. Named after the clipper ships of the 1800's, known for their speed, they were first commercial passenger transoceanic flights, linking the world in the 1930s and 1940s in luxurious comfort. During World War II, they were used for military transport. After the war, they were phased out, as newer planes could make longer range flights, and more destinations had permanent land runways. Overall, there were three models of plane used, and only 28 aircraft. Commonly, the Pan Am Clipper fleet were known as China Clippers due to its most well-known plane. "

In the early days of airplanes, there were few runways large enough to accommodate large planes, so they designed them to land on water. World War II caused many long runways to be built around the World, to accommodate bombers & other large aircraft, so there was no longer a great need for flying boats, since there were plenty of long runways for land based airplane to take off & land on.

@Philistine47 Жыл бұрын

Also there were two broad categories, both of which appeared in this film. The first type of "plane-boat" Indy climbed aboard at the end of the intro was a _floatplane,_ basically a normal plane with floats instead of wheels, and these still hang around in civil use in relatively remote locations such as Alaska and Hawaii; the second kind of "plane-boat" Indy flew on was a _flying boat,_ basically a boat with wings, and these are almost entirely gone (there are a very few still hanging on, in various navies and Coast Guards around the world).

@russellcollins52 Жыл бұрын

I would have liked it better if they had used a PBY flying boat which would have been more accurate but that is just nitpicking.

@sparky6086 Жыл бұрын

@Philistine47 True. I see both types, albeit smaller general aviation types landing & taking off in front of my dock, in central Alabama. Most are recreational flyers, but sometimes there's a float plane from the state department of natural resources or power company plane inspecting their hydroelectric dams & associated series of lakes along the Coosa River. There are a few big, former military flying boats still flying & used to help fight forest fires out West, I think, but the once common large passenger flying boats, like the ones used as "Pan Am Clippers" in the 1930's & '40's are probably in museums, if they still exist? A definition I read, said that a flying boat is an airplane designed primarily to take off & land on water, while a float plane is one designed primarily to take off & land on land, but is modified to land on water.

@dionysiacosmos Жыл бұрын

Yeah, same here in Central Florida. They were around in Lake Ivanhoe in Orlando, I haven't been there in awhile so I don't know if it's still true. In the 60s and 70s before things were built up, they were more common, as were air boats. BTW air boats are cool looking, and keep you out of the weeds and water hyacinth but they are just too loud!! Rode in one when I was 11 and never wanted to again, since I was the adventurous type think how loud it must have been to put me off it permanently.😳

You do know Marcus from another movie: he was the butler in Trading Places. Also, seaplanes (or boat planes) were very common, and still exist. They are especially handy from places without airports (think places in remote Australia, Alaska, small islands in the Pacific, and so on, but they're also in Europe and the US) . But one of their most common uses today is also for putting out fires (those have large tanks, that they can fill with water while floating on sea, and then take off and drop the water load to a forest fire).

Spielberg and Lucas were on a beach relaxing after "Empire Strikes Back" came out or around this time and George asked Spielberg what he wanted to direct and Spielberg said a "James Bond film" as they had both been big fans growing up of those films. This is when George said that cool but I have a better idea in mind and then proceeded to lay out the concept (which was not new to then as such of course) of Indy and his adventures.

A couple of connections to actual movies of the swashbuckler era.... The stunt with Indy getting launched out the front, having to make his way back *under* the truck during the chase, dragged along the ground, then finally re-entering the truck from the rear, was a near duplicate of a famous chase scene in "Stagecoach" (a classic 1939 western that starred John Wayne and John Carradine). Also, a star of a dozen or so low-budget westerns of the forties, Lash LaRue, was given a bullwhip so he had a "non-lethal" weapon in contrast to all the other cowboy heroes who used either guns or their fists. When the producers made a similar decision for Indiana Jones, they called up LaRue to teach Harrison Ford how to use the bullwhip.

Raiders is iconic, and single-handedly responsible for reviving pulpy action (based on radio-plays and cheap paperback stories of the 20s-30s) in the 80's and 90s. From Raiders (80) to The Mummy (99) is a golden time for retro action cinema. Other pulp highlights you would enjoy - The Rocketeer, The Shadow, and The Phantom (with Treat Williams, who recently passed).

I can’t believe there are still people who haven’t seen this! As a long time Spielberg and Harrison Ford fan, this is one of my favorite movies. To me, it will always be called just Raiders of the Lost Ark. The “Indiana Jones and the” was added after the sequels were released. The call letters on the sea plane at the beginning of the film are OB-CPO. Images of R2-D2 and C-3PO appear in the hieroglyphics on a wall in the Well of Souls. The scene wheee Indy shoots the swordsman was originally written as a choreographed fight scene, but Harrison, as well as most of the rest of the cast and crew, had contracted dysentery, and was unable to stand for more than 15 minutes at a time. The tried a few times to shoot the scene as planned, but couldn’t make it work, so they changed plans, and an iconic scene was born. Spielberg originally included the coathanger gag in his movie 1941, but cut it after it got no laughs during pre-screenings. He vowed to use it in every film until it worked. This time it worked. Dawn, please watch all the movies. In my opinion, the next one, Temple of Doom, is the worst of the series, though many fans like it. I think The Last Crusade is just as good as this one, plus it costars Sean Connery. The latest one, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, gets a lot of hate from fans, but I don’t think it’s that bad, even though it does costar Shia LaBeouf.

@AMortalDefiant Жыл бұрын

I'm shocked more people don't appreciate Temple of Doom more. I guess it depends when you watched them. Seeing them as kids in the 80s, Temple of Doom was *by far* the most entertaining/mystical/otherworldly, whereas Raiders felt too "talky" and more grounded in "boring"/"everyday" Bible stuff. John William's score for that movie is also extremely underrated - the only one in the franchise that gives me chills down my spine whenever I hear it. It was a darker film, but that doesn't mean the quality was any lower. It was arguably the closest of the movies to capturing the feel of the old adventure serials that Indiana Jones was inspired by, too. Temple of Doom could have been sponsored by Spinal Tap, because everything about that film was dialed-up to 11. I get that people tend to have biases towards the original in a series, but Temple of Doom was also as phenomenal to me as any of those first three films; they each have their own appeals and charm.

This is one of those almost perfect films where everything came together exactly as it should from the script, the casting, the look and design the music and the pacing and direction. In a cinema packed with an audience who had never seen this before but with a lot of expectation it delivered in spades and en masse the reactions similar to yours electrified the cinema. They truly do not make them like this anymore. I like to point out how seamless the cutting between locations and studio works on this mostly down to cinematographer Douglas Slocombe who was prolific on British films in the 40s to the 60s and who Spielberg first worked with on Close Encounters. All the creepy interiors for Peru and Egypt were all filmed at Elstree Studios, England. The famous music score by John Williams was of course played for the very first time by the London Symphony Orchestra and recorded at the famous Abbey Road Studio 1.

Raiders and the Indiana Jones character and stories were inspired by a number of mini movie adventure serials from the 1940's that Lucas and Spielberg loved and classics like "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" and "Gunga Din." Both worth watching, Dawn. The horror aspects of these films were inspired by EC horror comics from the late 50's and early 60's that were full of gruesome imagery. Hitler and the Nazis were actually obsessed with the occult and obtaining so-called mystical relics from around the world, thinking that they would give them great power and invincibility.
