It's pretty damn cool that Short Round grew up to become an Oscar-winning actor. Congrats to him.
Seeing Harrison Ford congratulate him when he won his Oscar was such a heartwarming moment.
Forget Mutt Short Round should be the “new” Indy.
Ke Huy Quan said that he would happily accept to reprise his role in a new Indy movie in a heartbeat if he was called back again.
Ke Huy Quan was also in "Goonies!" Which these guys should TOTALLY react to!
Oh, and "Loki!" He's a joy to watch, and his Loki character is very "Data." (Not the Star Trek TNG one, obviously.) 💙
One of my favorite things about Indiana Jones is that he never has a plan. He always just does stuff & sees what happens.
Yes! He knows the RIGHT thing to do, but not HOW to do it.
Get The Ark off the German truck. How? Not sure. Get a horse.
Get the antidote. How? Not sure. Throw this flaming skewer at laughing boy with the gun.
Sonny has a Tommy gun. How to not get machine gunned? Not sure. Run behind the metal gong. Oh: Axe! Cut it loose. Run behind it.
Get the kids out of slavery. How? Not sure. Throw this rock at the guy with the whip
While the scene where he tried to shoot the two villains and finds his gun missing was indeed a callback to the first movie, the scene right after that where he has to stop mid-chase, then run away followed by a large number of thugs was also a callback -- to his role as Han Solo in the first Star Wars movie.
Didn't think of that, thanks!
“There’s no way…you have hair and you choose that…” 😂😂😂😂
The 80s was a decade of incredible films. All done practically with miniatures, stunts and real explosions. This kind of stuff is not produced today. What’s more to realize is that there was no internet, no 600 channels on tv, no Netflix etc, so the experience of seeing films like this on the big screen was sheer magic. Also the anticipation was through the roof…you could not wait to go to the movies and be taken on the roller coaster ride. Fantastic times that won’t return.
I'm so happy to see Ke Huy Quan in Everything Everywhere All At Once after a 2-decade break from acting.
he's in Loki s2 as well
@@CoolEnginesChristytrekkiehe's vg in loki
Agree, but the movie sucked tho.
He's in Loki also, season 2.
Brian and Stewie Road To Berlin.
Temple of Doom was always my favourite Indy film. Glad you guys enjoyed it so much. A lot of people didn't seem to like it mainly because of Willie and found her too annoying, but I loved the contrast between her and Indy's character. Her being scared of absolutely everything and Indy's macho approach made for some real funny moments. Short Round was brilliant too. Loved him as Data in The Goonies, and he was equally awesome in this.
The whole movie is just a complete rollercoaster ride from beginning to end!
Can't wait for The Last Crusade reaction. The chemistry between Harrison and Sean Connery as his dad is brilliant.
The thing I love the most about this trilogy is how every one is different. The original is a action film, this one is a horror movie, the third one is a comedy, and the fourth one is an abomination. I haven’t brought myself to watch the newest one yet.
I agree with you 💯
The new one is definitely better then Crystal Skull hands down, it definitely has its issues but for his age I appreciate he fave us one last thrill and I liked it. Hated the female lead shes definitely the major issue, Disney has to go woke with things now
The third one is a comedy? 🤨
@@royroland3884 yes, to me it is always been a buddy road comedy
Yeah, its like that Adam Sandler song The Goat Song, that changes genres every couple of measures while telling one story, very cool🤘
There was a fourth and fifth movie? As far as I know there are only three. I was good with Indy riding off in the sunset in The Last Crusade
TEMPLE OF DOOM IS STILL MY FAVORITE INDIANA JONES MOVIE and I Stand by that!!
You are NOT wrong ! 😎💪🏾
I’m with you. For me it has a lot to do with the relationship between Indy and short round. Really elevates everything for me
Yeah cause this one was always the most WILD of the trilogy! lol
same
I'm glad Curtis caught that easter egg in the beginning. The name of the club was indeed Club Obi Wan.
I never noticed that, and I have watched a million reactions to the film.
Kinda like the plane that Indy flies away in from Beloq in Raiders having C3P0 as it's identification number
The Myth Busters once tested the inflatable raft as a parachute from this movie and deemed it plausible that you could survive it.
Glad you liked this one. It sometimes gets a lot of criticism. It’s a movie, it’s fun, it’s so different from the first one. I like how you guys like it for what it is! Good for you guys. The next one is the best though😉 hope you enjoy it!
_The Last Crusade_ is the weakest from the trilogy though. 😂
@no, it’s not 😂
@@Viewmaster147What the fuck is going on??? I watched these 3 films for the first time recently, and Crusade was by FAR the weakest one lmao
@it’s all subjective. This one is my personal fav.
You asked if jumping out of a plane with an inflatable raft was possible. Mythbusters did it!
You can do it, but whether you'd survive is a different question.
The answer is no.
@@lich109Wrong: Mythbusters proved that if you do it just right and are very lucky you *_can_* survive!
@@pistonburner6448To be fair, even without the raft, people have survived falling from airplanes. You just have to hit a hill on a perfect angle and prepare to break bones.
"You call him Dr. Jones, doll!" 😂😂
Favorite indiana jones film. It's so chaotically fun, even with willie making you reach for the aspirin. I love they gave us an actual final battle with the villain in this one. That bridge scene..iconic
This is my favorite of the three, it's a prequel to Raiders of the Lost Ark. It's my favorite because it shows you how Indy became Indy, even in the beginning he's not doing work for anything other than a fortune (The Diamond) and even when he goes to the Palace it's for fortune and glory. However along the way he stops thinking about his own benefit and helps the children and grows as a character. Even to the end where he's willing to lose all of the other stones save one and he brings that back to the village. My favorite scene is after he says that they're all going to leave (including the children) you have the mine cart slowly illuminate him, and then you hear the two punches and see the guard go flying back. This is the episode of Indy's life where he becomes the actual Hero.
This was my first Indy film that i watched and then watched the raiders and then the last one. This is my favorite movie.
Fun facts:
• For the bug chamber sequence, Kate Capshaw was really covered with over two thousand insects. She took sedatives prior to the scene to get over her initial fear, and claimed "they definitely worked".
• D.R. Nanayakkara, cast as the Indian village Shaman, did not speak a word of English. He delivered his lines phonetically by mimicking Steven Spielberg who was prompting him off-camera. The pauses in his dialogue were therefore not for dramatic effect, but rather waiting for his next line.
• Ke Huy Quan's film debut. An open casting call was put out to all the elementary schools to find a young Asian actor to play Short Round. Quan arrived with his brother, not to audition, but merely to provide moral support. He caught the casting director's attention because he spent the entire time of his brother's audition telling him what to do and what not to do. Steven Spielberg liked his personality, so he and Harrison Ford improvised the scene where Short Round accuses Indy of cheating during a card game. Quan won the role over about 6,000 other auditions.
• The nightclub in the opening scene is called Club Obi-Wan, a homage to the Star Wars character.
• This film is banned in India and never shown on TV channels in India.
• Harrison Ford suffered a herniated disc in his back in the scene where he is attacked in his bedroom by a Thuggee assassin, causing production to be shut down while Ford was flown to Los Angeles for spinal surgery. A large portion of Ford's work in the fights and chases in the "Temple of Doom" is actually performed by stuntman Vic Armstrong. Normally, special care needs to be taken to hide a stuntman's face from the camera, but this proved to be largely unnecessary since Armstrong bore an uncanny resemblance to Ford at the time, both in face and body dimensions.
• The sounds of the mine car running along the tracks during the chase scene were recorded on the rollercoasters at Disneyland, with the music and sound effects turned off.
• While filming the whipping scene, the crew played a practical joke on Harrison Ford. While he was chained to a large stone, Barbra Streisand appeared, dressed in a leather dominatrix outfit. She proceeded to whip him, saying "That's for Hanover Street (1979), the worst movie I ever saw." She continued whipping him for Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977), and making all of that money. Carrie Fisher then threw herself in front of Ford to protect him, and Irvin Kershner chided director Steven Spielberg. "Is this how you run your movies?" This entire sequence was filmed.
I found the greatest Christmas meme. A picture of the bad guy with the flaming heart and it says "last Christmas i gave you my heart, you screamed kali-mah and it burst into flames"😂
Oh that's great!
The British officer in uniform attending the banquet in the palace also appeared in 'The Shining' in 1980 as Mr. Grady who 'corrected' his wife and two daughters in the Overlook hotel.
The third installment will always be my favorite because of all the brutal nazi deaths!
Glad I kept all the movies on VHS!
Saaaame, watched all three in vhs as a kid and have the box set. Watched the third one with my dad and he loves the last crusade
It's my favorite because it pairs Sean Connery and Harrison Ford. Cinematic gold.
I would consider it extremely close to being the perfect movie. For me, a lot of films (no matter how good) have certain scenes or moments that are not good. Last crusade I feel doesn't have a single moment that would be considered bad
I as well have the VHS set, with the awesome diet coke indy commercial in the third one :)
Still got the VHS that's cool this was my favorite one cuz this was my first one I saw as a kid.
This is, by far, my favorite Indiana Jones movie. It has such a tremendous sense of adventure and danger!
I was 7 years old when my mom took me to the theater to see this. A treasured memory.
I also saw it in the theater when I was 7, my mom took me and my sister. In the midst of the heart-ripping scene I looked over and my mom was asleep😁
@@hollyodell4012 My mom told my 11 year sister that she was taking me to the grocery store so she needed to watch my younger brother. My sister was so mad when she found out that my mom lied to her.
@@hollyodell4012 I remember at that time, mine took me to see "Ghost Buster"... At the beginning, as they were in the library, she put her hand in front of my face/mouth, and when the skeleton lady looks back (impressive effect !), I did bite her... hahaha...
But this year, I saw E.T. and it traumatized me... Can't watch it without crying, even now.
@@hollyodell4012 lol
I was 8 def a treasured memory.
I used to not like this movie that much, but it's really grown on me over time. Of course, Short Round helps. Also, love how Indy is always amused at Willie's suffering.
Its an acquired taste.
It is Darker and ther's Willy constant screaming and nagging, BUT it is still a good Indiana jones movie.
Indy's and Short-round relation and interactions is everything in this imo
Makes me regret that we never had more of these two in another movie.
Would take the 4th or 5th movie to include an adult SHort-round, where he ends up being adopted by Indy, even tho they grew apart due to their differences, but having Short-round that would go after Indy to help him and then carry on the Torch of the Proffesor Jones.
"I followed you on many adventures, but into the great unknown mystery, I go first, Indy"
Always thought that was great way to stare down your own death. Into the great unknown mystery.
The events of this movie actually take place before Raiders. Meaning, when he did not have the gun for the swordsmen, it was actually the first time he did it.
The giant boss who ends up under the steamroller is played by Pat Roach. He already appeared in the first movie : he's the bald guy who was fighting with Indy in front of the plane. ;)
oh cool I never knew that.
Wait, really? That’s awesome, I never knew that.
So basically he’s been killed by Indiana jones twice by failing to be aware of what’s behind him.
He also had a part on Last Crusade but most was cut but you can see him walking to the zepplin.
@@SouthPaw7896 yes absolutely :D
Keep in mind, the events in Temple of Doom take place in 1935, prior to Raiders of the Lost Ark in 1936 (Last crusade (1938), Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls (1957) and Dial of Destiny (1969), respectively)
See that’s actually weird to me. This one just has such a follow-up energy to it. Like Indy in Raiders would be so unfazed if this had happened to him a year earlier. A serious misstep on the screenwriter’s part imho.
5:18
"Wait, Was The Club Called 'Club Obi-Wan'?"
Yup, it certainly was.
Nice catch
it probably been said before but - Ke Huy Quan (Short Round) recently returned to acting in the role of Waymond Wang in Everything, Everywhere, All At Once
My uncle was supposed to take me to see Wrath of Khan when I was 5, but took me to the wrong theatre by mistake, so we watched this instead. It was already started and was at the car chase scene when we got our seats. While it might not be the most appropriate for a five year old to watch, it made me an Indiana Jones fan instantly.
I love “Temple of Doom “! It was criticized when it was originally released, but I don’t care. For me, it was great.
"theres no way you have hair and choose that." comedy gold!!
Man, your guys's energy is infectious. You guys are the literal verbal manifestation of all the things I felt (still feel) when I first saw these movies with my brother.
No matter how many times I see these movies, there is so much action that I the end I take a deep breath like I've held it through the entire movie😂😂
Willie is played by Kate Capshaw who is the directors wife, Stephen Spielberg. The third Indy film is my favorite, you guys will be laughing a lot. Thanks for these videos. 😅
Ke Huy Quan did not leave acting purely by choice. He just wasn't getting parts, so he decided to go into the production side of things, that is, until he famously returned with a bang and won an Oscar for his part in "Everything, Everywhere, All at Once".
He is outstanding in season 2 of Loki
@@joshuareed390i am not a fan of current Marvel, but Loki is an absolute winner. He was great in s2
This is my Indiana Jones. It’s not everyone’s favorite of the franchise, in fact it is Spielberg’s LEAST favorite of the franchise, but it is my Indiana Jones and I love everything about it, the locations, the story, Short Round, Willie, Mola Ram, the secrets of that damn palace, everything. It’s a roller coaster ride from start to finish. This is my childhood. I still have the vhs my dad recorded the from the movie from hbo back in 1989 🥲
First time I heard the narrative of _Temple Of Doom_ being not good was around the year 2021. 😂
In the 80s and 90s the opinion was 50-50 on which film was the better one, if the first or the second.
The third one beign a massive favorite is also a very recent narrative from five years ago. 😂
Two of my most informative memories of childhood was seeing the crocodiles rip apart the bad guy when I was like 6, and a short "making of" feature where they showed the miniatures of the mine cart chase. It was the first time I ever saw a movie miniature and it blew my tiny brain. This movie encapsulates a lot of what I remember about the vibe and style of the early 90s (despite coming out in '84. I guess movies were just copying it for a long time)
Can't wait for last Crusade! It's my favourite!
hey yo i just wanna say thanks to you two dorks, my mother had a stroke this last week and you 2 knuckleheads have made me smile while dealing with some serious shit... thank you guys much love
Best wishes dude...hope all goes well with her recovery
This was my absolute favorite movie when it came out. I watched it so many times for years.
Dan Ackroyd played the guy who took them to the plane.
A lot of people were not happy with the character of Willy especially since she ended up being Mrs Spielberg, they felt she was super annoying.
The white tux he wore at the beginning was a nod to James Bond.
Short Round-Ke Huay Kuan(?)-is the only reason I watched this movie as a kid. My grandparents had two VHS box sets at their house-Star Wars and Indiana Jones. My older sister thought the dinner scene with all the crazy animal dishes was the best thing ever. At 6 years old I found it terrifying. Lol so I focused on Short Round and occasionally closed my eyes.
You guys laughed in all the rights parts for this movie! I’ve seen a lot of reaction videos to this movie and they just don’t get the comedy additions Spielberg put in. This is my absolute favorite of the Indiana Jones films. And this is an unpopular opinion, but Willie is my favorite lady from the movies. I liked the fact that she is a total girly girl and is completely unprepared for this adventure but she makes it through. And of course Short Round is a legend. Thank you for an awesome reaction video!!!
She's my favorite too.
Your face melting intro should be a short shared around the world. 😂😅 I'm loving how much u guys are enjoying these films.
This is my favorite of the 3 TRUE Indiana Jones films.
This is my favorite Indy film too.
I love that. My favorite is Raiders but having experienced all three films in the theaters I love them all. Making this one of the greatest trilogies ever. Don't listen to anyone Temple of Doom rocks.
Same. It's just so bonkers i love it. It's an 80s comic book come to life
😎💪🏾
Same. It's just so campy and pretty over the top that I've always enjoyed it the most out of all of them
16:21 While filming that shot where he flips the assassin stuntman over his back, Harrison Ford ended up rupturing a spinal disc. He had to use a gurney to rest on while shooting takes, but his injury deteriorated and he had to be flown back to L.A. for surgery and physical therapy. Luckily, he recovered and made it back to the set just before shooting schedule ended.
Willie is played by Steven Spielberg's second (and current) wife, Kate Capshaw. What's funnier is Spielberg's first wife, Amy Irving, whom he was only dating at the time, was offered the role of Marion Ravenwood from Raiders of the Lost Ark, but they recast due to a breakup.
Indy making mistakes and take some beatings makes him relatable to most of us I think. That's why he work so well.
These movies are just so much damn fun! The next one - The Last Crusade - is USUALLY pointed to as so many people's favorite one. Even the "bad ones" are still worth enjoying for what they are.
You're right - while Crystal Skull is relatively bad compared to the other Jones movies it's still a solid action adventure movie worth watching. And honestly the new one I found a worthy entry for the series again. :)
Oh - and did you watch Spielberg's "Tintin" movie? I of course did (I have all the comic books since I was a kid) and it's actually better than I expected, but I had to laugh out lout during that one long chase scene down the mountain through a village - the whole setup and execution was SO Indiana Jones! A chase scene with people fighting on the vehicles with a bunch of awesome (CGI) stuntwork. I tell ya, the soundtrack SO wanted to go: ""Daaat Dadat Daaaaa!" during that scene several times. :D
@@commanderkrugeIndiana Jones was also inspired by Tintin...
@@garryiglesias4074 Yes, I can see that... :D
@@commanderkruge I love the fact that the first 3 movies are all just really homages to earlier films and the whole adventure genre. Crystal Skull is an homage to the movies that came about 20 years later, and I haven't seen Dial of Destiny yet.
The point is, these movies took an entire genre of films and updated them and they're exactly what they're supposed to be: FUN.
Furthermore, anyone who watches Temple of Doom and believes the whole raft falling bit shouldn't complain about the fridge bit in Crystal Skull. These movies aren't meant to be taken THAT seriously.
@@howardbalaban7051 Right? Indy lives in a World with magic stones, Aliens and whatnot. :D
I was 1 when this came out. I want to say I was 4or5 when my father showed them to me on VHS, because I was 6 when Crusade hit theaters, and I must have gone to see it at least 3 or 4 times w/my dad. I loved the hell out of all 3 growing up, but Doom was always my favorite as kid due to the fact that it's so DARK💀
BEST childhood EVER!
You know the kid is Ke Huy Quan, he just won the Oscar for Everything Everywhere All at Once. He was also in The Goonies.
Duh!
*the little boy played in THE GOONIES too*
Watching this reminds me that the kid who played Short Round (and Data in the Goonies) grew up to win an Oscar for Everything Everywhere All at once. And in the coincidences department he won it on the same day as Brendan Frazier (who he was in Encino Man with) won his. And Michelle Yeogh also won an Oscar on the same day and SHE had been in The Mummy 3 with Brendan Frazier. I can imagine them sharing one heck of a party.
Temple of Doom is so much fun, Love the Minecart and Bridge Scenes! So Bad Ass!
my sentiments exactly
You guys are SO right. They don’t make movies like this anymore. Watch you watch more classics
Definitely my fav of all the Indiana Jones films…I love how dark it is & it just added to the drama & Indy’s heroics…by the way, one theory people have come up with over the years is that the whole Indiana Jones series is just Han Solo dreaming while frozen in Carbonite from Empire Strikes Back to Return of the Jedi 🤯
These movies were an homage to the old adventure action serials kids had at Saturday matinees before the 1960s when TV took over.
One thing is sure, you guys have the best intros out there!
I think probably this one's funnier than Raider's ,more adventurous especially at the end. Love Shortround. Can't wait for you to meet Indy's dad in the next one, Dad is pretty funny.
I won't lie, watching this movie as a kid, with hearts being ripped out and guys crushed by rock crushers, probably wasn't the best idea 😅
I dunno. I watched way worse. There is a reason there were Robocop and Rambo cartoons. My childhood (and my friends childhoods) wouldn't have been as awesome without watching the Fly and Hellraiser when we were 10. We had so much fun back in those days... Nightmare on Elm Street is something you NEED to watch when you are ten. And some of those movies KNEW that we were watching. Oh, hell, did they know... Talking about how awesome that hearth scene was between classes at school is a cherished memory.
That's why Spielberg insisted on the PG-13 rating afterward.
This, if I recall, was the first movie to get the PG13 rating. They basically invented it for this film.
This is the first movie that I remember seeing in the movie theater when I was 7 years old and I absolutely loved the heart being taken out of the chest and them serving monkey brains for dinner.
haha same. 10 year old me watching with my parents was terrified.
Basically Indy stumbles from one cliffhanger scene to the next, that's his thing. Oh - and fighting on moving vehicles. :) Indy, at first will get his ass kicked to then come swinging back harder. :)
Back to the cliffhangers: The old cinema adventure serials were one of the main inspiration for Indiana Jones. And at the end of each episode the heroes would get into a deadly situation with (seemingly) no escape just before the end credits rolled. So the audience would come back next week to see, how they get out of danger. That's what a "cliffhanger" is. And the Indy movies adapted the formula into feature length films - Indy gets dipped into deep poo again and again - but in the end, of course, saves the day.
MAN these movies are HUGE fun. I saw the first one over fifteen times in cinemas alone - each time I'd get a chance I'd re-watch it. "Oh, it's in the matinee programme of the town we're on vacation in? I know what I'll do today!" :D. I was 13 when Temple of Doom came out - and it again was AWESOME! Probably not really for my age, but I LOVED it like part one.
SHORTROUND!!! Did y'all see where Harrison presented him with the award (Oscar?) for 'Everything, Everywhere, All At Once'?? Backstage, Harrison looked at him as he was walking past and said "Are you ShortRound?" and he replied "Yes, Indy!" or "Yes, Doctor Jones!" and then they had that beautiful moment on stage! He's also in the new Loki season!
Just finished your Raiders reaction. What a treat i didn't have to wait for Temple. Looking forward to Last Crusade co-staring James Bond himself, Sean Connery.
I always loved the fact that the club from the opening scene was "Club Obi Wan"
Some of the mine cart scenes were done with miniatures and it blends so well with live action that you don't really spot it - very well done.
Kate Capshaw, who played Willie, met future husband Steven Spielberg on set. They are still married to this day.
Yay! One of my all time favourites, I’ve watched this movie more times to count, time for another watch 😊hello from Australia.
You know that the small boy was Ke Huy Quan who played the husband in the movie Everything Everywhere All at Once? :D
11:57 - Spielberg and Ford recognized Ke Wei Quan's talent right away, so they got together and improvised this poker interaction on the spot.
22:35 - In another case of important info lost to the cutting room floor, there is a deleted scene where Short Round sees one of the guards get burned by a jet of lava, at which point the guard comes out of his brainwashed state just before the other guards drag him off. That's how he learned that being burned breaks the curse.
After you finish with Indiana Jones, you need to check out his spiritual successor from the 90s, Brendan Frasier in The Mummy and The Mummy Returns.
Thank God you liked it! For some reason this movie gets a hate in America that it barely gets anywhere else. I love that they went the polar opposite from Marion to Willie, and the screwball comedy is so on point it is just golden. The way this movie balances darkness with lightness should be teached in film schools.
I love this movie. But it has some really bad flaws.
It only gets hate from the loud vocal minority. 😂
It’s way more darkness bruh. That’s the problem. It’s overkill in that department tbh. Caused an uproar in ‘84 and tbh small children even today should not be watching such gore & grisliness. It’s too much.
I love Willie...😂
Fun Fact: Short Round is Ke Huy Quan. He just won the SAG, Golden Globe, & Oscar for Everything, Everywhere All At Once.
Wow you guys edited so much out in the second half. Disappointed that you didn't show the kids running back to their village. That was so touching.
I’m literally shocked you 2 didn’t even mention how strong the horror element is in this one. That was audiences’ biggest takeaway from it in 1984, that shocked audiences and parents everywhere were up in arms about it. You see a grisly gory human sacrifice, you have Indy getting force fed blood & becoming demonically possessed, children getting whipped, then zero mention of any of that. Yes the action sequences are fantastic as well as you described, and the opening is indeed James Bond energy all around. I’m just floored by zero mention of the horror.
Not meaning to be rude it’s just it surprised me.
I know Willie gets a lot of flack, but honestly...I feel that given the horrific circumstances her reactions are not only understandable, but utterly reasonable
@@MaggioWhetstone Totally. to be honest I would have been worse. Cause poor Indy and Short Round propably would have died cause I would NOT have stuck my hand in that hole full of bugs lol.
@@MaggioWhetstoneEven in real life, most people underestimate those kind of girls... They take them for stupid, superficial, without culture, whereas they have some hidden powers, often courageous, smart in tense situations, can read humans hearts, and many more.
You are wrong!
Nah. I hated this movie as a kid because she was so obnoxious. I've grown to like it by ignoring her.
Right. She's the classic damsel in distress, just played up more for laughs (Though more people eyerolled than laughed, I'd imagine). They can't all be marion lol
The second installment is actually a prequel. Timeline is set one year before the events in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
The nightclub at the beginning, IS called Club Obi-Wan, a direct reference to the Star Wars character. And in "Raiders", R2-D2 and C-3PO appear in hieroglyphs.
I'm an old Guy and the more often I watch this .... The Darker it gets! I saw this on a Huge Screen in Leicester Square London, the week it premiered.
This film is actually a prequel to the first and is set one year before, I believe.
I think Shortround only did this and Goonies, but recently he's done Everything, Everywhere All At Once and plays a fairly major role in season 2 of Loki on Disney+.
Cool video, guys.
Glad you're enjoying this great trilogy from my youth. 👍🏻
One of my favourite films growing up and still is!!!
Same
Same for me
I spent many hours at the arcade as a kid in the 80s playing an Indy pinball machine, and I think there was also a video game.
Did you notice that the guy at the airport talking to Indy just before he boards the plane is none other than the legendary Dan Aykroyd. He had a non credited cameo.
I've watched this movie hundreds of times over the past 30 odd years and I never noticed the Obi-Wan Club, well spotted.
Fantastic reaction guys.
I absolutely loved this movie as a kid. The bugs, the music, the fact that it had "Data from Goonies" and a ton of kids being freed, I thought it was just so incredibly cool. Now as an adult, I think it's the sexiest of the films. I blame it on Harrison Ford being in his element and slightly sweaty while his clothes are slowly torn away.
Also as a kid, that fall from the plane was fucking epic.
16:23 is where Harrison's back went. During the following period he was off work, they had a stunt double to do various scenes, then when Harrison came back they just inserted his close-ups.
The guard who went through the rock crusher, is played by the same actor who played the German guard who went through the airplane propeller in "Raiders".
Short round should have been brought back for at least one more movie such an awesome character
23:18 who would’ve thought 40 years later, that shot of Indy and Shortround would take on a whole new meaning? (Oscars)
Speaking of modern heroes. I heard Vin Diesel and the Rock have contract clauses that state they cannot lose badly in a fight. They can get hit but not beat.
Watched this movie like 100 times. Short round is a legend

Absolutely loved your reaction.
Seeing your reaction reminds me of exactly how I felt watching to this and discovering Indiana Jones 40 years ago.
The kid playing Indiana's sidekick was in the movie The Goonies😊❤❤
11:20 “Elephants are cute” and they do smell very strong to make you puke 😂.
19:35 Both SubZero fatalities in Mortal Kombat are from movies, the heart pull-out is from Indiana Jones _Temple Of Doom_ and the spinal-column pull-out is from the first _Predator_ film.
🤠 « Anything Goes » really is the motto of the movie 🍻
+ As the events of Temple happen before Raiders, the call-back scene is purely meta/for the audience and not for Indy - which could mean the Raiders scene is even more satisfying for Indy, because THIS TIME he has a gun 😎
As a mother of grown men 37-40, I watch you young men and brings back memories for sure..lol. Lovelovelove ❤️✌🏻🍁
The actor who escorted Indiana Jones to the airplane was Dan Aykroyd
the guy who showed them aboard Lao Che’s plane was played by Dan Aykroyd
This and Ghostbusters.
Good year for him.
This is my favourite Indiana Jones film. It's the one that I watched on repeat growing up and I absolutely adore it. Biggest crime of the franchise was not bringing back Short Round - my favourite character!!! I definitely had some beef with Willie when I was younger though, as I didn't know then that this was technically a prequel and Indiana hadn't left Marion for Willie. Because who on earth would ever make that decision? Though some of her reactions are definitely valid and she's good fun to watch!
I'll get slightly political and say that I don't really understand why this film was banned in India. Indiana Jones says himself that what the Thuggee cult have done is a twisted take on Hinduism and they have shamed Kali. They are a cult and obviously what they are doing is wrong. That's explicitly said. It's not putting any shame or backlash on Indians or Hinduism as a whole, at least in my opinion. It's doing the same thing that plenty of Hollywood films do with Christianity or other beliefs, such as the movies Apostle, The Ritual, Midsommar, and even a classic like Carrie. I don't know, please correct me if I'm wrong, that's just how I see it. Though if it's because of the banquet scene, I can definitely understand.
18:26 his scream when he saw the hole 😂
The actor that plays Short Round was in the movie The Goonies with Sean Astin. Years later they were in the movie Encino Man together but Short Round had a small role in that movie. I’ve met Sean Astin and he is a very nice person. Encino Man is a very funny movie you both should check out. From what I hear about this film it is a prequel to Raiders of the lost Ark
The favourite trilogy of my youth.. I'm glad you are enjoying it 🤗
im so glad tow watch your reaction guys, just to inform you I saw this in the movie theatre when I was fourteen and I loved this movie, I remember the entire theatre laughing at the scene where the cigarette girl gets punched , when the lao che air fright was revealed and after short round say "he's not nuts he's crazy" just before indy cuts the bridge I was such a great movie, my dad didn't buy popcorn for us but im sure the sales of popcorn went down for this movie. imagine trying to hold down your popcorn in the movie theatre during the dinner scene.
and Yes theClub WAS called club obi wan (in reference to Star Wars) if you guys watch raiders again you eventually will see (if you watch it enough times) three-in and R2 d2 in the hieroglyphics as Indy and sallah are taking the lid off the ark. you guys have fallen into the blockbuster trap (as I call it) these are movie where you have to think fast and really watch what is going on ive been loving this film series for more than twenty years now and im still not sick of it. I hope you guys will love this film series as much as I did.
