    ^^I thought Crusades was way too corny which is why I rank it lower than Temple. Also the nostalgia factor certainly skews my view somewhat of the saga.

    Last Crusade is the best. Lost Ark is a very close second. Don't like the other two very much...

    i can understand that. I think my overall feeling is that people condemned the movie before it came out because they knew it wouldn't live up to its predecessors. To me, part of what turned me off was the beginning as I think it did to many others as well. The beginning was so absurd that it cast a very poor first impression on everybody and opened the rest of the movie to intense criticism.

    Yeah Casey, the interaction between Connery and Ford really was superb

    And whoever said the score for Crusade is amazing is right! I think I've had one of the pieces stuck in my head ever since I saw the movie in like 1990 (the one that plays several times when they're in cave/find the grail, etc.)

    I think the problem with Skull (in my opinion) was the overused CGI and the fact that we actually witnessed living aliens and a UFO. It might have worked had they kept that stuff out of the movie , it just didn't work.

    My ranking:

    Crusade
    Raiders
    Skull
    Temple

    There was a rumor floating around a few weeks ago that they're making another and that it has to deal with the Bermuda Triangle, but I think that rumor was shot down. Not sure.

    How can any of you guys honestly think that Crusade is better than Raiders?

    .....Raiders is one of the greatest movies of all time. It's right up there with Jaws.

    I prefer the storyline and Connery and Ford were brilliant together.

    To me, it's just a better movie. It's not very far ahead of Raiders, but in my opinion, it's better.

    Fair enough. Raiders is just so epic. It's timeless. Perfect. Classic. Badass. etc.

    Random Fact:

    Raiders Of The Lost Ark was nominated for a Best Director and Best Picture Oscar. How many of you knew that? Or maybe I should ask, are any of you old enough to know that?

    BTW, Raiders is the best of the 4. Followed by Crusade, Doom and Skull.

    Raiders > Temple > Crusade >>> Crystal Skull

    1. I don't know why Temple of Doom gets so much flack, I absolutely love it.
    2. I rank Temple ahead of Crusade because Crusade is just a little too 'cutesy' for me at times, though I do love it.
    3. I think Crystal Skull was not nearly as bad as a lot of people made it out to be, although it is also not even in the same league as the original 3. HATED all the CGI. Seriously, they can use real snakes in raiders, real bugs in Temple, and real rats in Crusade...why do we need shitty fake CGI ants in Skull?

    Rumors are they are going to do a 5th one?

    Close between Raiders and Crusade. Raiders is a freaking CLASSIC, but I personally like Last Crusade better.

    Edit: Skull never should have been made. And I never should have gone to see it.

    Also, I love Temple of Doom, just not quite as much as the other two. I watch that trilogy (and the BTTF trilogy) almost constantly.

    Really tough to choose between Raiders & Crusade. I think Raiders is the better movie but Crusade was my favorite just because it was the only one I ever saw in theaters.

    I still haven't seen Skull. I want to just to experience how bad it is, but I never feel like putting it to the top of my queue.

    I think they should have gone the James Bond route with Indy. Keep making movies but replace who plays Indy.

    This is probably a better idea than Skull.

    But then again, I don't know who could fill Ford's shoes. That role IS him.

    This, I don't think anything is wrong with Temple, but it does have tough shoes to fill compared to the other two in the original series.

    Its Raiders, quite easily. Crusade is a great film, but Raiders is an all-time top 50 in history type deal. Essentially created the action/adventure genre.

    Ford has to play Indy. Anyone else is unacceptable. Skull's problem wasn't Ford, it was Lucas. The script was terrible, the plotlines ludicrous, and the CGI woefully lacking in some phases.

    They should have used Frank Darabont's script that Spielberg and Ford loved but Lucas vetoed.

    Yeah...Lucas has had mild retardation for the last decade or so.

    This is probably a better idea than Skull.

    But then again, I don't know who could fill Ford's shoes. That role IS him.
    Same can be said about Connery and Bond, but there's been good Bond films made after 1973. The character is great, the series is fun and there's certainly many stories that could be told. I love Ford as Indy but I would love to see 10 more Indy films too.
