The feast is a tip that the rumors of an evil at the palace were true. Those things would be sacrilegious for a Hindu to eat but a cult who did ritual murder would partake in it. There is a filmed scene where Indy remarks that dinner was weird since no Hindu eat those things. A Pakistani reaction channel picked up on the context of the feast
The thuggee were made up by the British colonial regime to disparage all Hindus and this movie reflects both that and textbook white saviorism
I only TODAY figured that out from your comment and their reaction.
Until now, I’d just assumed chilled monkey brains was more hilarious cultural stereotyping from the Howard the Duck writers.
Monkeys are worshipped as avatars of Hanuman so killing and eating one would be sacrilegious unless you were in danger of starving to death.@@ericjanssen394
It's also a homage to orientalism, with a view of the mysical east as a place filled with bizarre and fantastic stories.
Yeah Cinephiles React did that comment. They were also bothered that India (or as they called it, Hindustan) was portrayed that way, and they defended India by saying nobody eats those kinds of things. But they also remarked that it's because those people were part of an evil cult.
I actually wish they would meet each other and make a "crossover" video. Would be very interesting.
It was nice to see how Babu reacted to Amrish Puri. Proud of his fellow countryman
Amrish loved the way his head looked and adopted it for the rest of his film career
I just took a look at the Wiki Page for the movie. The movie itself wasn't even filmed in India, but in Sri Lanka and Puri was the only real native indian actor. The rest was hired extras from Sri Lanka. So no wonder, the two didn't recognise the landscape
Ceylon to use an older name has a lot of Tamil people. Tamil is a state of India. The sacrifice victim is Indian. from an interview he gave " “OK, you’re going to be in that cage. And they’re going to pull you towards it, and you’re going to die and you’re frightened. So: What would you say?” I said, “Well, I think I’d say ‘om namah shivaya.’ It’s a prayer type of thing that you say before you die; you pray to the god Shiva.” And then they checked that with Amrish Puri, and he said “Yeah, yeah, that’s right.”@@Anthyrion
@@Anthyrion Interesting Babu mentioned it looked like it was filmed in Kerala. Kerala is in south India and close to Sri Lanka.
Love how Babu was cheering along with them during the sacrifice. Not sure whose side he was on. 🤣
😂😂
Totally agree with Babu. Amrish Puri's Mola Ram couldn't have been played nearly as well by anyone else. He was iconic in that role.
He loved it. He kept the shaved head look
Best villian of the series! Such a great actor. Harrison Ford said he loved working with Amrish.
This was filmed in Sri Lanka, that explains the scenery. However the costumes were like rajistan because that is what western audiences think of when they imagine India. They think of Rajistan, and this was made for westerners
That must be why they went back and forth between guessing it was set in Rajastan or in Kerala. Rajastan for the costumes, Kerala (near Sri Lanka) for the palm trees and scenery. About as good a guess as you can make for a fictional setup!
It's like Americans trying to figure out what city something is set in when half of the scenes were filmed in Vancouver BC.
7:02 "He is the main character. He won't die so soon." Wise words from Babu here^^
This is a fundamental rule of films and books. Even children know this. There is no special wisdom in this knowledge. 😃
More like Basedbu
@@michaelnewman7468 don't be a sourpuss
Babu discovers Plot Armor
If it hasnt already been mentioned, Temple of Doom is actually a prequel to Raiders of the lost Ark, taking place in 1935, one year before the events of Raiders.
i never noticed that, TIL. thanks
it says the year at the start
Narrative wise it doesn't really matter as they're completely self-contained stories. In the books that Indian villain is a recurring character though, that's when it starts to matter.
@Trazynn The time line is important if lore and chronology are important to the fiction you consume.
Watching Raiders knowing that Indy has already experienced the events of Temple can change how you watch Raiders.
As well, it begs certain questions, that are not answered in the subsequent films.
What happened to Short Round, he would only be one year older and loved Indy like a father and saved Indy's life. Why is he not with him in Raiders or mentioned?
What happened to the Romance between Indy and Willie? Again they escaped death together and yet within a year Indy is with Marion and would have a child with her.
None of those question matter if Temple came AFTER Raiders.
Just my two cents.
they had books etc. Indiana Jones encountered the wreckage of the Millenium Falcon and human skeleton of the pilot and the still alive Chewbacca@@matthewkinsey9044
Babu chanting along with the thugees had me laughing!
Yea not sure whose side Babu was on. 🤣
He's alright kid
Kali for da win!
Babu is just hilarious and always funny to watch.
I LOVE when Babu repeats the words! :3 I was waiting for them to react to this movie just because it has indian language i was very curious about. Babu is awesome
sacrifice! sacrifice! :D
i laugh so much when the food is shown and babu and his friend are just shocked 🤣
"This must be in a place next to China". LOL 🤣
@@aurorapazviruet4289 lol even villagers in rural south asia know china eats bugs
@@girlsdrinkfeckyou can blame a pandemic for that 😏
@@aurorapazviruet4289lmao exactly
it's no lamb bhuna I have eaten they didn't even get a naan bread 🤣
I loved this reaction, I knew it wouldn't come across as totally terrible to them and I enjoyed seeing their faces actually light up in recognition at certain parts and names and of course Amrish Puri! Obviously the dinner scene was troubling to them but I think it can be viewed as showing just how far from the right path these people have swayed and works as foreshadowing of their true nature.
Glad to see them enjoying another childhood favourite of mine!
I know the vast majority of the Indy Die-Hards (especially those who prefer Last Crusade) have mixed feelings on this film due to it being darker than _Raiders of the Lost Ark_ (which resulted in the creation of the PG-13 rating afterwards) Kate Capshaw’s performance as Willie Scott (which I can somewhat agree to a degree, but I hated Elsa more than Willie), among other things, but I love the fact that it was much different than the other installments and let’s be real Ke Huy Quan as Short Round is one of the best sidekicks Indiana Jones had and it was also heartwarming that when they were promoting the fifth Indiana Jones film at D23 Ke reunited and met Harrison Ford backstage with Harrison saying _"Are you Short Round?"_ to which Ke Huy said _"Yes Indy, I’m Short Round"_ and they got a picture. Not to mention when _Everything, Everywhere, All at Once_ (which they should react to at some point) won Best Picture both Ke Huy and Harrison reunited once more.
But overall in my unpopular opinion I enjoyed this one more than Last Crusade. Also it’s awesome that Babu was able to recognize Amrish Puri as Mola Ram cause he was a very well-known famous actor in India.
As long as its one of the first tree im happy enough.
That was the critics reaction which you're mistakenly applying to indy fans
@@MrGenedancingmachine But the Indy Die-Hards also had mixed reception and prefer Last Crusade and the first film over Temple of Doom and the fourth and fifth film
@@MrGenedancingmachine Besides, Critics (film critics) reception for the fourth film was slightly positive than the fans (especially the Indy Die-Hards who loved the first three films) were mixed to negative.
His face when the eyes popped up from the soup... 🤣🤣🤣
Speaking of Star Wars references, you seem to not have noticed the name of the Chinese club at the beginning... Obi-Wan.
About the banquet - you can tell Babu and Raeen that evil people in palace do evil things (like human sacrifice) so their dinner is not an ordinary dinner but it is perverted , strange. I know that in western countries knowledge about indian cousine is low and this scene was supposed to be funny but when watched their reaction i think this explanation would be better for them. Greetings from Poland!
It’s shorthand for evil rich. Roman and French aristocracy would eat ridiculous and elaborate food made from animals no one would ever normally eat. It’s an example of decadence.
It's also, I think, an homage to orientalism and their views of the mysical east as a place filled with strange stories.
@@00Kuja00 Its been mentioned elsewhere in the comments section but originally Indy notes that regular Hindu people dont eat stuff like that and "Something is....very wrong here". The line was cut and only ended up in a kids autio book format. Of course it also might have been cut because Indy said the line wrong and erroneously said "hindus dont eat meat" instead but ti was an earnest attempt by Hollywood half a century ago
@@TrollCapAmerica He does mention in the film "these are not hindus". But hinduism is a very complex religion, I have a masters in history of religions.
@@TrollCapAmerica most hindus at that time wouldn't have eaten meat at that time since it would be a luxury food for rural hindus. Even now fully vegetarian is dominant in a lot of areas or its the majority of their eating.
Many people don't recognize Dan Akroyd appears right before they board the cargo plane.
😎👍
That's why i mentioned it and time stamped it hours ago. Though with the edits, you don't get to see his face here. just hear his dodgey English accent 😅
@@YogiBhoy78 You mentioned it after I did. My likes prove that. Nice try though.
@@MAGGOT_VOMIT Did I? I never read the comments at that time, I was watching and commenting. My bad if so. The likes prove what? Nice try though....what? 😅. I just posted i was looking forward to the reaction, then I posted remebered Akroyd was in it, then edited it 4hrs ago when you posted, to add time stamp. Don't know who was first, not important. But yeah, few ppl do. Apart from you, i only know one other person that knew, out of film buff friends and fam. It was a great reaction, one of the best so far. o7
@@MAGGOT_VOMIT I just posted "Christ IS King" on the Benny Show under an hour ago, 58mins.....the first comment. There are multiple posts stating the exact same thing after my post, Mine has 178 likes, the later ones have 180, 190, 220 likes....how can that be? lol. o7 🙏🏻
@@YogiBhoy78 No harm no foul friend. Glad you're a movie buff like me. Hey, even after seeing this movie in theaters back in the 80's and many times since, I had go back and look again at the British Military guy that appears before the feast at the palace. I realized it was Philip Stone, whom played "Delbert Grady" in theShining.
Babu was painting his ceiling and then the guy said, "I got you another movie to watch". Babu threw down his paint-roller and said, "LET'S GO!!" 😆🙏
Also the English military guy at Pankot Palace was the butler that hacked his family in "TheShining".
@@MAGGOT_VOMIT The caretaker at the Overlook Hotel didn't hacked his family in "The Shining". Mr Delbert Grady "corrected" his wife and two girls for playing with matches trying to burn down the hotel.
@@scipioafricanus5871 What planet are you on?? They were the "Grady Twins" and were definitely hacked aka "corrected" by Delbert Grady their father with a hatchet and his wife by shotgun. That was the reason for the bloody flash-scenes of them.
@@MAGGOT_VOMIT I think he's making an off-color joke, using the term "corrected," as a substitute for "hacking up."
@@MalnourishedGoat One would hope that he was, but with no ; ) emoji and no reply, I believe he really thinks that Delbert Grady only corrected them. There are many people (including my sister in-law), that completely miss meanings in movies like that. 😆
I knew the dinner scene would puzzle and horrify them (genuine disgust from Raeen at the monkey brains I think - and I share that myself), but I'm really pleased they enjoyed this so much! It was wonderful to see how Babu instantly recognised Amrish Puri (as of course he would) and was so thrilled that he was playing the role. Oh, and it was also very instructive to hear some translation of the chants in the temple! I'd never looked into what they were actually saying before. Thank you, Babu, for teaching me something new!
When Indy is being whipped he is being called a pig. When the guard is knocked out of the trance and being sucked into the grinder he yells Save Me White Master!
@@toomanyaccounts Wow, really? That's pretty weird. I mean, he could have stopped at "save me"...
not really weird. British Raj pretty much any white person was higher in social status than any Indian. India culture even today still has vestiges of the caste system in which for all practical intents several castes were chattel slaves @@macronencer
@@toomanyaccounts I see. So perhaps it is authentic then, even if it sounds a bit strange to me. I'm nearly 59, but of course the story of this film is way before my time anyway.
@@macronencerwhatever that guy is saying is straight up bullshit
8:59 Babbu: What kind of India is this???? 😂😂😂😂
Most of the film was shot in Sri Lanka which is an island just south of India. That’s why much of the jungle scenes were so authentic.
Babu remarked it looked like it was shot in Kerala, which is in southern India and close to Sri Lanka.
Amrish Puri ... One of the best Indian actor to play bad guys like in the movie Gandhi!!!
Another great video! Could i suggest The Princess Bride for a watch, its another great film.
Hehe, I think Babu would make a great movie villain, too :D
Well, it was way less "cringe" than I expected. I'm very happy that they enjoyed it, and I'm looking forward for the third part.
I really hope you'll show them Conan the Barbarian soon. The atmosphere of the sacrifice scene in Temple of Doom always reminds me of the snake tower in Conan the Barbarian. I guess this type of atmosphere is somewhat iconic for adventure or fantasy movies of that era.
I want them to watch Jumanji (the old version only!) and after that Zathura ⭐😼👍
Their faces during the feast 😮 🤦♂️ 😐 😕 😑 😣 😱
No wonder. The fantasy dishes were absolutely vile!🤣I had completely forgotten how bad that was.
And that was a perfect example of how oridinary, everyday, normal folk react to a classic "movie". The same way they used to in the "Western" world, pre mid-2000s or so.
Thank you guys, for the reminder to some and setting an example for others, bravo 👌🏻.
I hope you had a happy and blessed Easter 🙏🏻
Lol, most people actually still watch it like that. Yes, we can acknowledge its flaws and how it has aged socially and still enjoy it for what it is.
Hope they check out Apocolypto at some point.....maybe a bit violent....but I think they've seen enough so far that it wouldn't bother them too much.
Well, this will be..... interesting.
This reaction made me so happy. I love their enthusiasm for movies! I agree that Amrish Puri gives a tremendous performance. I am looking forward to watching more reactions. 😊
I love how unintentionally hilarious this movie is.
Its a comedy’s its very intentional 😂
@@winwinmilieudefensie7757 Even when it tries to be serious its funny
@@Seek1878 I would venture to say that the writers/filmmakers are fully aware of how outlandish it all is and recognize that its over-the-top nature can be found funny by some. This series, more than anything else, is supposed to be FUN. Tbh, there's very few moments in this film one could even argue are trying to be serious moments. Perhaps Indy becoming possessed (which I can see someone perhaps finding humorous/too campy) and the emotional exchange between Shorty and Indy (which I think definitely hits the mark, emotionally). Other than those two moments, it's kind of wall-to-wall bonkers action, gross-out moments, and comedy gags.
And aren't the other films scandalous for Russians, Egyptians, Germans, etc.?
Yes, it's as cliché as possible, but Indiana Jones is just an adventure film. But also a satyr of old films at the time where each indy is located: that's why in 1 and 3, we have the ark and the grail with na*is, the story takes place in the 40s. In the 50s were the Russians and the myth of aliens.
Indiana Jones 2 takes place in the 20s, early 30s and at the time, these were exotic myths, with the natives seen by the whites of the time with all the clichés that ensued.
I'm glad they liked the movie.
"Enough with the love-story, now get to work!". The amounts of time I've had this very same thought in dozens of Hollywood-flicks!
my personal favorite indiana jones movie, short round number 1!!
I'm pleased they enjoyed the movie. This was the first Indy movie I saw back in the 80s. And it got me hooked. 🤠
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom was shot in Sri Lanka, China, the United States, and England. Filming locations included Blue Canyon and Coal Mine Canyon in Arizona, University of the Pacific and Hamilton Air Force Base in California, Kandy in Sri Lanka. Filming also took place at Elstree Film Studios in England. ... not a single location was in india lol
Indian authorities wanted alterations to the script so they had to move. Sri Lanka is pretty close though.
Ever since I started following/subscribed I wondered if they’d do this film. I am so glad they got to view it. Babu had me cracking up. Their summary of the film was very good.
Please react to “The Princess Bride”! I think the reactors would love it.
Oh boy this is gonna be.... Interesting 😂
I too was waiting for this ever since they watched Raiders!! 🤣
Raheens first reaction is Always-they will die now. As Babu reminds him, you don't kill the hero in the first few min. of the movie.
The actor who played the kid reunited with Harrison Ford recently
1. Many folks don't care for this one very much but I do. It's all kinds of fun.
2. Just a small suspension of belief regarding the lifeboat drop out of the plane, and the coal car landing perfectly on the tracks.
3. IRL Ford could fly that plane.
4. When I was in the US Navy I got to eat monkey (but not monkey brains) and tasted dog in the Philippines.
5, Shortround is "Billy Badass"
6. Disneyland already has a "Temple of the Lost Ark" so another one of the ride through
the tunnel/mine would be cool too. Assuming you can still afford it.
7. The guy that gets crushed is the same actor that played the guy that gets wacked by the propellor in "Raiders of the lost ark".
8. Kate Capshaw got the Willie gig because she was dating and later became
Spielberg's wife.
3. Well I mean it was the 90's before he took up flying again, it was too expensive for him in the 60's when he took some flight training courses. Also fly yes, land no (unless there's a nearby golf course)
2. I remember when Crystal Skull came out, and some people were saying it wasn't as good because of all the supernatural/unbelievable stuff. I was like, did you watch the first three, faces melted, hearts pulled out, non-survivable falls, live forever.
2. Oddly enough, Mythbusters did a test of the lifeboat fall and surprisingly... with some luck, it can kinda work, sort of. So not completely out of the realm of plausibility.
The coal car though would be a complete dice throw... but still it could happen.
Babu was very observant when he said the scene with the elephants looked like Kerala. The movie was filmed in Sri Lanka, so the terrain and vegetation would probably look a lot like Kerala.
yeah right like there is no elephant in other parts of india....
It is not about the elephant, it is the trees and plants that show it in the south.
Has anyone broke the news to them that Indiana is a US State?
No it isn't, it's a dog. o7

Thought you guys have already seen this Indy franchise long ago, but glad that you guys enjoyed the Indian themes in this Hollywood film! 🌴🇮🇳
This movie is actually a bit controversial in the West now, because it's percieved to misrepresent India. And I can see by their reaction that they thought so too, at least a little bit. Raeen looked a bit bothered at the end of the movie. I wonder if he was a bit disappointed. I can understand if he was.
But, it's just a movie from a time when people didn't know a lot about anything that went on outside western countries. India was seen as exotic and a bit dangerous. But in the defense of the movie, the indian villagers were at least goodhearted. And the people eating all those disgusting things were part of an evil cult that had also taken control of the Raja.
Anyhow, please understand that we don't see India this way because of that movie. It's only a story set in India about an evil cult, nothing more. You people represent India, not this movie. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Raeen you seem like an awesome guy, and you have a lot of insightful comments.
Babu Bhai, don't stop singing! I love hearing what song you choose after each movie.
Everywhere in the world when people see a movie that are set in their country the first thing they're gonna complain about is that it isn't accurate in its portrayal of their country or culture. Because that is what the Indiana Jones films went for: accuracy like it's a documentary.
Yes sir, I'm from India and i respect your perspective 🫡
Oh, I've been waiting for this one for cultural reasons! THANKS!!!
Short Round's escape from the mine is one of my favourite scenes in this entire franchise. He's such a brave little hero! And his musical theme is great too - in fact, the music in this film (John Williams, of course) is exceptionally good. The "travelling theme" (as I call it, not sure of its name) when they are first travelling to Pankot is an absolute masterpiece, beautifully scored, instantly memorable and EPIC.
Thanks for the translations of what they were saying in the movie.
I often wondered.
yes most of it is real Hindi. Its been translated for decades.
So offensive that the government of india refused to let them film it there
When will 3rd movie be watched????
Baby and Raeen to react to gremlins!!!!!!
Gizmo Gaga!
I remember my mom hating this installment because of that lady’s incessant screaming.
Same with my mom! She hated this movie (for the screaming stupid lady) and loved the other two ^^
Cmon man you can’t be showing them this! haha jk
WHEN WILL LAST CRUSADE BE ACKNOWLEDGED
They should watch Ghostbusters
Someone get Babu a Cole Porter CD, NOW
Truman show next movie
The Mask, Liar Liar or Ace Ventura Pet Detective are better!
Glad they confirm the depictions of India are totally culturally appropriate...
you obviously missed that the dinner was a hint that evil was at the palace
Only the food, interestingly enough!
@@toomanyaccountsI don’t think it was meant to be that. They were trying to portray themselves as normal to the outside world after all.. the cult was a secret.
The reason of the scene is just comedy.. and why not.
From the perspective of a westerner and an unknown fiction land. It’s just fiction. We have to see it as such. They are not saying that Indians actually eat this stuff.
The whole movie is a work of fiction for entertainment.
No one western actually thought Indians eat this stuff.
Of course insects are eaten in south east Asia….
Pay attention to what Mola Ram they were confident they no longer needed to hide for long@@patinho5589
React to ip man
Cant wait for them to watch the last crusade
Trying to figure out the geography of this movie is a losing game. They crashed over the the Himalayas, and somehow landed in what is clearly a tropical rain forest (it was filmed in Sri Lanka, which is quite the crash trajectory). The local extras they pulled speak Sinhalese, I think. Then they take elephants and walk back into a Hindi speaking area over a couple of days.
To be fair, the filmmakers were trying to pay homage to the serials of the 1930s, and those were notoriously awful at... well, knowing just about anything about anywhere not in the general environs of Los Angeles or New York City. I'm not sure that's really something they should have copied.
Short-round just won an Oscar
I finally learned that Indians don’t eat pregnant snakes and monkey brains.
I liked that they translated many of the lines in Hindi that I always remembered but never knew what they were saying.
And Babu has good musical rhythm.
Snakes and monkey are believed to be kind of holy animal like ancient Egyptian and cats also 30% of indian are vegetarian india has biggest population of vegetarians in the world
God bless you, gentleman. I love seeing someone who knows how to experience a movie.
When it comes to the Banquet scene I think Amrish Puri (who plays Mola Ram) put it best
"it's based on an ancient cult that existed in India and was recreated like a fantasy. If you recall those imaginary places like Pankot Palace, starting with Shanghai, where the plane breaks down and the passengers use a raft to jump over it, slide down a hill and reach India, can this ever happen? But fantasies are fantasies, like our Panchatantra and folklore. I know we are sensitive about our cultural identity, but we do this to ourselves in our own films. It's only when some foreign directors do it that we start cribbing."
These were supposed to be Shanghai, China and India near the Himalayas in 1935, 12 years before independence and the partitioning.
Roshan Seth, who played the Pankot Prime Minister, said the dinner scene was intended to be simultaneously a joke the Pankot people were playing on what they believed was the ignorance of their guests about the culture of India, but also a hint something is very wrong with the people of the palace. Also, what Temple of Doom portrays is more a caricature of how Westerners imagine India, the same way the Indiana Jones series and similar adventure stories of the early 20th century portray various cultures as how Westerners imagined them. However, because some of the shots and lines that made that more readily obvious were cut, many people interpreted it as disrespectful of Indian culture, and this film was considered the least well regarded of these first 3 movies.
Seth said in a later commentary that this film really established Amrish Puri's fame for playing villains, that after this film, he always kept his head shaved and continued to play every major bad guy in Indian cinema for years. (Mola Ram definitely left a deeply intimidating impression in my childhood memory and this is the only film I've ever seen him in..!)
Ya I know but this is a take on how Americans at one time thought of the world. This is a dip back in to a time when Adventure films had stuff in them about other cultures but it was totally off. They figured the average American wouldn’t really look to deep into any other culture other than ours. They were wrong. We are not that thick headed. 😊 This film is a reflection of action adventure stories from a time when Americans story telling was kind of basic and simple maybe even childish 😂 Eh, so we were dumb. Short Round is a name from an actual war movie about a kid who befriends a solder in war. Oh That will make you cry. This movie is saying to us Americans “hay don’t be dumb like this OK”. Remember. It’s fun but it’s only a fantasy and not real.
KALIMARRRR, BABU! KALIMARRR!!
Jai maa Kali
Jai maa tara (another name for Kali)

Please have them watch "MAN OF STEEL" the BEST Superman movie ever!
"Mmmmm!!! SNAKE SURPRISE!!" 😋
"Chilled monkey brains" my favourite
@@DarknessIsThePath Oh yeah!! With Ritz crackers!! 🤣
Last Crusade please! In fact show them ALL the Indiana Jones films. Crystal Skull and Dial of Destiny too!
Sadly, they will become fans of Indiana Jones and will never experience The Fate of Atlantis (the best Indy movie that never was).
Obviously this film doesn’t handle South Asia in a particularly accurate or careful manner but that’s mostly due to the fact that George Lucas wanted the Indian Jones films to be like action adventure serials from the 30s and 40s. The serials were often set in Africa or Asia and rarely attempted to be accurate in representing other cultures
The Indian scenes in this movie were actually filmed in Sri Lanka.
for the film they did want to shoot the palace scenes at the real pankot palace in Janpur, India, but sadly they weren't allowed to. most of the film was done in sri lanka and sound stages in england. the dinner scene was over exaggerated on purpose. if you get to watch the making of the film steven and george talk about to his alot. there was a certain style they were going for like from the 30's and 40's films . the film gets darker to represent the divorce george lucas was going through and his pain etc. and after star wars epi 4 came out epi 5 empire strikes back was darker at the end of it too and george explained this to spielberg and he went with it. it's the film that got the pg 13 rating made; spielberg asked the rating guy to create it.
Another movie I would like to request is #WakingNedDivine . It’s an Irish comedy.
I can’t pretend that some level of racism wasn’t involved in Temple of Doom, but the movie does do enough to justify the fairly inaccurate representation, given that the people we see are either living in British controlled India, or part of a cult.
Spielberg had asked his casting people to get Puri, he had heard of him and wanted the best villain they could get.
They were eating disgusting things because they were under the spell (black magic). Ive seen another Indian react channel where she was so offended because she thought the movie was portraying that all Indian people eat these nasty things. She didnt understand they were in a devil cult. These guys did great to understand this!
It was just comedy.
Also from a narrative point of view it wouldn’t be because of the cult.. because they were trying to portray the straight version of themselves to the outer world and not showing that they are in an evil cult. So narratively it was protesting this as the food of the locale,. Eaten at a feast… But it as all just for comedy.
@@patinho5589 There was a cut line where Indy points out Hindus dont actually things like this and gets a clue that something was wrong but it was cut from the movie
@@patinho5589they were planning to announce themselves they were already moving openly and thought they would have the two remaining stones soon
1:14 He is always interested in fabrics, tailoring and clothing like in a professional way. He works in that industry?
It’s definitely interesting to see their reactions to this movie. I’m glad they take it so well, and that they clarify things for us. Regardless of the intent, the stereotyping in this movie is pretty bad. Other commenters had mentioned a deleted scene where in Indy remarks that the feast was weird and that no Hindu would eat those things. They really should’ve left that in.
When they land after the plane crash, your comment about how the scene didn't represent where your country. This is how many Americas feel about how they represent America in movies. Of course, this is supposed to by 1935 (or something like that) so it was long ago. Still, I appreciate your comments.
This would have British India which also included Pakistan and some other areas
I must admit I was a little worried Babu and Raeen would be confused and a little offended by certain aspects of the film's plot largely involving Indian culture. We all know there are many inaccuracies. But they understand it's just a fictional adventure movie and I'm very glad they enjoyed it. 1984, what an awesome year for movies. This is one of my all time favorite movies of my generation. I remember seeing this in a movie theater in 1984 with my mum and her friend when I was 10 years old. The feast at Pankot Palace had everyone gasping in horror and laughter, it was hilarious. I even had the LP album read-along.🙏🤍
I saw this whenever I was probably about 7- I was horrified during the feast and asked my mother if people eat the things they were showing. She said “Idk what’s going on. You’d get weird diseases from eating stuff like that, These people have something wrong with them.” 😂 that became much more apparent to me during the sacrifice scene.
@@darla896 hahaha Yeah the feast scene with the snake surprise and monkey brains was horrific and funny. I remember baby sitting my younger cousin and her sister, this movie was on tv and although they insisted on watching it they got pretty freaked out even though they were only a few years younger than me. I put on some WB Cartoon videos for them so they could get to sleep. The sacrifice scene is what tipped them over the edge I think.😂
Please make reaction on movie Ratu Ilmu Hitam 2019
If they haven’t seen it already, you should show them the movie #12YearsASlave . Given their reactions to the slavery portrayed in this movie, I would be interested to see their reaction.
“I have never seen human sacrifices like this”.
So, what have you seen?
I would be interested to see their reaction to the film ‘Everything, Everywhere, All At Once’, and to knowing that this kid, Ke Huy Quan, grew up from being Short Round to being Waymond.
Have they figured out Indiana Jones is also Han Solo yet?
They didnt in the last reaction.😊
Raeen said the actor was in Star Wars.
A movie you may want to consider is The Deceivers; a 1988 adventure film directed by Nicholas Meyer, starring Pierce Brosnan, Shashi Kapoor and Saeed Jaffrey. The film is based on the 1952 John Masters novel of the same name regarding the murderous Thuggee of India.
I live in he UK we have many Indian restaurants we know this is not Indian food I like real Indian food.
it's always weird watching a movie shot in your home country, isn't it?
did Babu lose a fight with Styrofoam box??
"Yes, you are not bad, but you are a victim of circumstances."
how the F any indian could mistake china for japan? this is just out of control
babu had an absolute blast upon seeing the great Mr. Amrish Puri.
Babu & Raeen are golden together! Glad they got to watch another Indiana movie. I would love to see the gang react to movies based in India like Slumdog Millionaire, Lion, Gandhi please.
Indiana Jones is indeed also Han Solo from Star Wars, well spotted!
You guys need to do The Rocketeer...
