The Indiana Jones Thread

For the record they weren't "Aliens" but "extra-dimensional beings" - seriously that title is how he dodged them being Aliens.

Yes GL is splitting hairs once more Laughing

Cause I couldn't tell you the difference between Aliens from space and Aliens from another dimension.....

Star Trek vs. Star Wars. There's your difference. Wink

I don't recall any dimension travel in Star Wars. My point was simply that Trek dabbles in inter/extra dimensional travel, while Star Wars does not. But if I'm forgetting some dimensional dabbling on Star Wars' part, then my point is moot, and I take it back. Wink

Well the difference between an Alien and an Extra-Dimensional Being is that one is from another planet, and the other is from another dimension. An extra-dimensional being could be a human from Earth but from another dimension.

And I had no idea that anyone tried to dodge there being aliens in Indy IV by calling them something different. Seems silly. I have no problem with aliens being in it, but I do hope they don't pop up in the next one. That would be over doing it.

I need a little help with Young Indiana Jones. I'm planning to start buying the season sets soon, and I'm trying to get my hands on the few novelizations as well.

From what I can tell, the novelizations look like this:

Random House:

1. The Mummy's Curse adapts

2. Safari Sleuth adapts British East Africa, September 1909.

3. Race to Danger adapts Princeton, February 1916.

4. Prisoner of War adapts The Somme, August 1916 and Germany, August 1916.

5. Field of Death adapts Verdun, September 1916.

6. The Mata Hari Affair partially adapts Verdun as well as Paris, October 1916.

7. Trek of Doom adapts German East Africa, December 1916.

8. The Secret Peace adapts Vienna (or Austria), March 1917.

9. Revolution! adapts Petrograd, December 1917.

Fantail:

1. The River of Death adapts German East Africa, Decemebr 1916 and Congo, January 1917.

2. The Day of Destiny adapts Verdun, September 1916.

3. The Secret Treaty adapts Austria (or Vienna), March 1917.

4. The Rule of Russia adapts Petrograd, Decemeber 1917.

For the most part, I intended to buy the Random House adaptations. However, should I:

1. Skip Field of Death since The Mata Hari Affair also includes Verdun?

2. Skip Trek of Doom since Fantail's The River of Death also includes Congo?

Thanks for your input.
