I know quite a few people who liked it. To each their own I guess _________________ Perfection is a lifelong pursuit requiring sacrifice. The only way to get it quicker is to sacrifice the most.

Queen Padmè Skywalker Master Joined: 17 Jul 2009 Posts: 4948 Location: Sitting in front of a fireplace on Naboo exchanging pathetic dialogue with Anakin Temple of Doom is my least favorite in the Indy series. I'll take Crystal Skull any day. _________________ All things die, Anakin Skywalker, even stars burn out. So this is how liberty dies....with thunderous applause.

Darth Skuldren Moderator Joined: 04 Feb 2008 Posts: 5774 Location: Missouri What is wrong with you people?! No Temple of Doom? *mumbles chant to rip hearts from chest* I grew up with the Indy trilogy, and all three are deeply embedded into my childhood. It is for that reason that I hold them so dearly. Sure, I liked Crystal Skull, it was pretty good, but...I just can't see it as part of that "original trilogy." The stupid vine scene still haunts me. Now Casino...there's an interesting movie. Violence and Joe Pesci at their best. Goodfellas was okay, but I thought Casino was better. Fifth Element was a fun movie. And Taken was certainly one of Liam's best. But what's Leon? _________________

Monty Python and the Holy Grail Animal House Young Frankenstein Before their time? Indy IV is deliberately distinct from the original trilogy because the original trilogy was modeled upon the 1930s serials and pulp comics whereas Indy IV is modeled on 1950s sci-fi B-movies. _________________ "Trust not the words of a poet, as he is born to seduce.

Darth Skuldren Moderator Joined: 04 Feb 2008 Posts: 5774 Location: Missouri Well my initial list was very small. I shall spotlight "the classics." I concur that Monty Python and the Holy Grail should be on there, definitely one of the best comedies ever made. However, I have to admit, I didn't like Animal House. But I digress, the classics...in comedy! Ghostbusters The Great Race Groundhogs Day Scrouge Dr. Strangelove The Blues Brothers Cheech and Chong's Up In Smoke The Great Outdoors (my favorite John Candy flick) City Slickers These would be my personal favs. _________________
