Machine Games has released Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, the famous adventurer’s latest video game. However, for this week’s Shack Chat, We’re talking about the Indiana Jones movies that have stuck with us most.
question: What is your favorite Indiana Jones movie?
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom – Ozzie Mejia, Senior Archaeologist
I know this is the stepson of the series. At least until the final two movies come out. Still, Temple of Doom remains in my heart. Mostly because of the dynamic between Indy and Short Round as children. This resonated with me and adults. It warmed my heart to see Harrison Ford and Ke Huy Quan reuniting a few years ago.
This is probably the coolest indie film of the early aughts. I admit it. I still tell people, “You betrayed Shiva!” is still what interests me when it comes to Indiana Jones movies.
The Last Crusade – TJ Denzer Choose Wisely
When I think about the things I love about Indiana Jones, The Last Crusade covers most of those things. There are good stories. A lot about this movie From Nazi battles to Sean Connery giving a great performance as Indy’s father. to the Temple of the Holy Grail and its mysteries Most people remember the cup scene where the man drinks from the wrong cup. But I also really liked the puzzles and action leading up to that moment. It was really a good adventure. And the more I looked at it The more I realized that most of my childhood memories of Indiana Jones came from that movie.
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom – Asif Khan, CEO/EIC/EIEIO – was still alive when the film was released.
Although I enjoyed every film in the original Indiana Jones trilogy, I have to say that Temple of Doom remains my personal favorite. The even more graphic action and heart that was ripped from my friend’s chest did irreparable damage to my psyche that is felt to this day.
Temple of Doom – Bill Lavoy, Master Carpenter
Temple of Doom holds a special place in my heart. Not because of this movie But it’s because I remember visiting my grandmother and watching it on VHS that I would watch it over and over again. I’ve probably seen that movie 100 times, and it stands out for reasons other than the quality of the movie.
Indiana Jones and Raiders of the Lost Ark – Sam Chandler, Museum Curator
You really can’t ignore the original Indiana Jones movies. It does a great job of creating an entire universe. The idea of a professor going on a dangerous adventure. and plots that twist and meander around the world. I think it still exists to this day. And I might have to watch it again before playing the new Indy game.
Kingdom of the Crystal Skull – Donovan Erskine
I’ve actually never seen an Indiana Jones movie before, but I’ve heard nothing but praise for it. So I chose! I love Spielberg And I remember this show being the talk of the town when I was a kid. Every frame I’ve seen of this movie looks like something out of art.
Raiders of the Lost Ark – Steve Tyminski, Movie Guy!
What is my favorite Indiana Jones movie? I have not seen the newer, more modern Indiana Jones films, however, I have seen the classics that made the series cool. I think for this question I would choose Raiders of the Lost Ark. Must be because of the rock scene where Indy runs for his life out of the cave. I think we all imitate that scene where we trade idols for things of equal weight. That scene is one of the best in the movie and makes Raiders of the Lost Ark my favorite Indiana Jones movie.
