Summary: Yuck....Raiders came with it! (lol)
Comment: Well, my reviews of the last two Indy movies still stand, but I STILL don't like "Raiders of the Lost Ark", now retitled "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark". Whoopee. Besides James Bond, Indy has to be the most imitated movie hero since Tarzan, but I can assure you, "Raiders" is NOT the movie that spurred the land office business in fedoras, short leather jackets and that spate of Indy-type TV shows in the mid-eighties...it was probably "Temple of Doom" that set it off. "Raiders" is still, to me, empty, stupid, cliched and tailor made for a non-discriminating mass audience, like Spielberg's other movies of that era. I don't know....I always liked the movies he's PRODUCED, directed by others, than his own movies....they're like that old joke about Chinese food...you're always a hungry ten minutes later, like the flicks are missing something....big time! "E.T.", "Close Encounters", "Raiders" and "Jurassic Park" have always struck me that way, and "Bruce" in "Jaws" always looked SOOOOOO fake, (and the movie wasn't the LEAST bit scary, either!) I've always felt burned after seeing a Spielberg movie! This is why I say it's obvious that Lucas and possibly Kauffman have both had their extensive hands in the latter two movies, which were much more enjoyable than the first.
It's not easy being a completist, lemme tell ya! ;-)

Comment: Indiana Jones is an all time classic for all ages.
Who hasn't dream of being and archaeologist and travel around the world looking for adventures!
I am really looking forward the new movie! And probably will buy the new combo box with all the DVDs!

As with Star Wars, the George Lucas-produced Indiana Jones trilogy was not just a plaything for kids but an act of nostalgic affection toward a lost phenomenon: the cliffhanging movie serials of the past. Episodic in structure and with fate hanging in the balance about every 10 minutes, the Jones features tapped into Lucas's extremely profitable Star Wars formula of modernizing the look and feel of an old, but popular, story model. Steven Spielberg directed all three films, which are set in the late 1930s and early '40s: the comic book-like Raiders of the Lost Ark, the spooky, Gunga Din-inspired Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, and the cautious but entertaining Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Fans and critics disagree over the order of preference, some even finding the middle movie nearly repugnant in its violence. (Pro-Temple of Doom people, on the other hand, believe that film to be the most disarmingly creative and emotionally effective of the trio.) One thing's for sure: Harrison Ford's swaggering, two-fisted, self-effacing performance worked like a charm, and the art of cracking bullwhips was probably never quite the iconic activity it soon became after Raiders. Supporting players and costars were very much a part of the series, too--Karen Allen, Sean Connery (as Indy's dad), Kate Capshaw, Ke Huy Quan, Amrish Puri, Denholm Elliot, River Phoenix, and John Rhys-Davies among them. Years have passed since the last film (another is supposedly in the works), but emerging film buffs can have the same fun their predecessors did picking out numerous references to Hollywood classics and B-movies of the past. --Tom Keogh
