Elsa is actually my favorite Indy girl because she keeps you guessing. You think she's good, then you find out she's bad, but then there's enough evidence to keep you wondering if she's going to be redeemed. In the end she paid the price for her sins though. Elsa just couldn't let it go.
The actress who played Elsa, Alison Doody was great playing another villain in the movie RRR. She seems to have aged gracefully as she looks great in that movie
The beginning of the movie, featuring the late River Phoenix as Indy, cleverly explains certain things about his character. His aversion to snakes, his need for using a whip, and the scar on his chin (that Harrison Ford actually has) just to name a few...
"Is this Indiana getting his hat?" ...and his whip ...and his fear of snakes ...and the scar on his chin. Essentially the entire mythos of Indiana Jones was created in one fortuitous afternoon.
Even with their issues, and Henry only ever calling his son Jr, he knew the one way to reach him when it really mattered was to call him Indiana. He knew that would bring him back to attention and let him know how serious it was that he listen and do what he said. Gets me in the feels.
"Not his face! That’s the moneymaker!" 😂Love your impromptu lines, Jen! When Last Crusade came out, Connery was still renowned as Bond, a man's man. So this academic/geeky role was really a turn, and the dad-son chemistry amazing. I felt that the Indy movies carried on the mantle of globetrotting adventure that were the Bond movies.
There is a good reason for that. The Bond movies were actually a huge inspiration for the Indiana Jones movies, along with the cinema serials that Lucas enjoyed as a kid. And when it came down to casting the role of Indy's father, their opinion was: "The only man that could ever be the father of Indiana Jones... is James Bond."
I was truly surprised by the chemistry between Sean Connery and Harrison Ford. I didn’t expect this movie to be so damn good. So few “part 3” movies are ever better than the previous movies. Not sure I would call it better than the first, but on par with it. Great movie. Great reaction. 🔥
this is on par with the first one. Doom is a love hate thing. We don't talk about Crystal Skull thou but the new one coming out is supposedly gonna go back to it's roots. We shall see thou
@@dernwine seriously it just felt too different. that one actress felt forced as the villain and her russian accent was horrible. It just annoyed me anytime she spoke. Shia did not feel like a good pick for his son and then who can forget the refrigerator... lol
@@Cheepchipsable it was GhB not a typical overdose. It was poor advice for doing this stuff after drinking all night long - which is a recipe for disaster. Poison. Like taking a whole bottle of Nyquil after drinking a liter of vodka
The 'can you fly?' 'Fly, yes, land, no' is an amusing callback to Temple, where Willie asks Indy if he knows how to fly and he says 'no, do you?'. So he flies briefly, then they jump out with the life raft. So yeh, he is technically correct 😂
River did such a good job playing Indy, as he had his mannerism down to a science, really made you believe he was young Indy. Sadly, we never got to see him reach the heights of his talents, but we did get a small touch of them in movies like this. RIP
"You don't sleep with Indiana Jones and then betray him. Im sorry, No!" - Jen Murray Something to make you go hmm. As a kid George Lucas spent many a days in the backseat of his car, with a dog as his co-pilot. That dog was named Indiana and was the inspiration for Chewbacca. Very nice review as always Jen, thanks. 👍🙋♂️
From the mellow music, to the tidy, homey background, to your soothing voice, this is one of the most pleasant, even comforting, reaction channels on RUclips.
@@jenmurrayxo Hi Jen, are you planning on watching Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull? I may get roasted by saying this but it is not as bad that some make out. I can't say much as I don't want to be a spoiler but you will be pleasantly surprised and you will be ready for Indy 5.
Dr. Schneider was played by an Irish actress, Alison Doody (yes Doody, hey it's Irish) and ironically she earlier played a 'Bond girl' by the name of Jenny Flex in the 1985 James Bond film 'A View to a Kill' when Roger Moore was James Bond. Ironic because here she was acting next to Sean Connery, another ex-James Bond.
Henry Jones Sr and Marcus Brody are the most under-rated team on the planet. "Henry! Henry! The pen! Don't you see? The Pen is Mightier than the Sword!"
Sean Connery was a great Bond and started off the longest lasting franchise in cinema. Dr No was ok but I feel that Gold Finger is one of the true classics and I loved From Russia with love, with Robert Shaw (Quinn from jaws) playing an amazingly lethal protagonist
Psst - there is a 4th movie. The A story is wacky but the B story is one you will love "Crystal Skull". Also I googled if there will be an Indy 5 movie: The fifth and final Indiana Jones movie has an official release date: June 30, 2023. Harrison Ford himself announced the news onstage during Thursday's Star Wars Celebration, where Lucasfilm also revealed the first official look at Indiana Jones back in action. (Final since Harrison Ford is 80)
Last Crusade easily takes the crown for me as best in the trilogy, you just can't beat Harrison Ford and Sean Connery playing off each other so perfectly as father and son. But if anyone prefers Raiders I totally get it, not as much though if they choose Temple of Doom
@@teentitans0789 Great Scott! He must've used the Delorean! Do you have any idea what this means?! If he traveled back in time and left this comment, there's no telling what other comment sections he might've interacted with! If he left any comments divulging pertinent information about the future it could create a time paradox, the results of which could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space time continuum, and destroy the entire universe! We've got to go back and stop him from leaving those RUclips comments!
Crusade is a fair/bad movie compared to the Temple of Doom, visually it is far bellow and if you compare the intro there is not comparaison, you people are deluded about the last Crusade.
I used to wonder about the backstory of that guy, and this explanation makes alot of sense given he had so much influence on him, and couldn't have been just from that one encounter when he was a kid..
Considering how good Raider of the Lost Ark is, this is a great third movie. The addition of Indy's dad added a perfect dynamic and the story gives some nice character backstory. I saw it in the cinema and it delivered, one of my top 5 movies ever.
Fun fact the lion scrne in the circus train serves to: establish Indys interest in whips, and source the scar on Harrison Ford's chin (which he actually received in a minor car accident)
"I would've thought Indiana Jones' dad would be adventurous just like him, but [he] seems like an indoor boy." Indy's dad clearly brought the "professor" side to the genetic table, so it sure makes you wonder what Indy's mother was like, doesn't it? I bet she was quite a troublemaker -- maybe not too dissimilar from Marion! 😝
31:36 You've got to love how Indy's whole demeanor is basically, "What's everyone looking at? Are we just taking in the view? I mean, it _is_ a very nice view."
While Sean Connery was excellent in many roles, to the world at this time he WAS James Bond. Bond was the ultimate suave action hero, especially in the 60's and 70's. So seeing the ultimate action hero play against type as a bookworm, who can't believe that his son gets into these Bond-like adventures, just added to the humor and the joy. In the tank scene, when Connery subdues one of the Germans with a fountain pen, I have to believe that was an homage to Bond's gadgets, especially the fountain pen gadget in Connery's final Bond film. (You'll understand when you see Q issue Bond his gadgets, at the beginning of each movie.)
So cool you didn't hear Indy's friend call him by his name at the begining, I think you were distracted by the phony Indy/Inspirational Indy. Your excitement when you realized that Indy was the kid was so awesome. You really are the best. You should go back and watch the intro again knowing that River Phoenix was his younger version. BTW way River Phoenix is older brother to the "Joker" Joquaim Phoenix.
As great as this movie already is with Ford and Connery and the rest of the cast, River Phoenix as a young Indiana Jones makes it even that much more amazing! A fantastic actor, in fact one of the best and brightest of his generation, River was tragically taken from this world too soon.
If you want to react to more Indiana Jones, I suggest the TV series "The Young Indiana Jones Adventures", it began 3 years later 1992-1993, and ran for two years. It has Indy meeting various famous people through the early 1900's Harrison Ford also makes appearances as older Indy in some of the episodes as he reminisces about his younger adventures. Then if you want to, watch the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, that would be the chronological order as they were released.
Sean Connery and Roger Moore were and are the most recognizable James Bond actors. Indiana jones and the last crusade is often the favorite among viewers of the Indiana jones trilogy with Raiders of the Lost Ark often a very close second. There is a fourth Indiana Jones Movie released in 2008 called, ‘Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull’ with a musical score once again provide by and composed by John Williams. According to google it received generally good views from critics and more polarized and likely varied reviews from general audiences. For some viewers the best part of the fourth Indiana Jones movie is seeing Indians jones reconnect with original love interest Marion Ravenwood. I leave it up to you Jen if you want to check it out and decide for yourself if the fourth Indiana Jones movie is a good or at last decent follow up to the original Indiana Jones Trilogy. Love your reaction channel and your movie reactions. I also enjoy your beautiful and sweet personality.
The four of them riding off into the sunset was quite a shot. The challenge was to find a sunset with nothing else in the picture - no trees, no poles, no fences, etc. One of the very few places on earth that met all the criteria was this guy's huge ranch in Texas. Anyway, that's what I read many years ago. I hope I remembered it right.
Enjoyed your reaction and love this movie! Most people like "Raiders" the most but this is my personal favorite. It's interesting how "Elsa" falls off the edge towards the end and soon after we hear, "Let it go!" :) Keep up the good work.
Hi Jen, would love to see you react to The Mask of Zorro. It's a swashbuckling adventure starring Anthony Hopkins, Antonio Banderas, and Catherine Zeta-Jones. It's a really fun watch!
Now you know where Indy got his fear of snakes and the scar on his chin. Also, Indiana was the name of George Lucas' dog. The dog was also his inspiration for the character of Chewbacca.
I love how when Indy punches someone, it sounds like somebody broke a 2x4 over a side of beef, and whenever he fires a pistol, it sounds like a deck gun on the Bismarck.
Well done Jen, you are a joy to watch. There is only one more movie that I know of, "Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull." It wasn't as good as any of these first 3, but it was enjoyable. I think you should watch it.
After watching your excitement over this installment of Indiana Jones, I’m even more convinced you’ll love National Treasure- there’s a similar father/son repartee, not giving anything away- thats similar to The Last Crusade
Love when he finds the X in the library... he looks at it on the floor like he isn't sure but it's revealed when he goes up the stairs.... Like, Indy, you couldn't see that it was an X while on the floor? Seriously?
Ya I thought the same thing. A better way would have had him racing around looking for it then while on the stairs have him spotting it from above and "X marks the spot".
@@ronweber1402 The idea was always fine, but the 'X' had to be much larger and maybe in a kind of artistic design to mask the obviousness of it. Otherwise it's always struck me as a silly part of the movie. Still my favorite of the series though.
Hi Jen,finally got to the best Indy movie (hooray! ) I'm going to try again with this suggestion, Tom Selleck in Quigley down under. A new leading man to add to your collection. Great film, and probably his best role. Please give it a chance.
Wonderful chemistry between the two of them in this. For me, this stands shoulder to shoulder with the first film. As always, Jen, your humour and cuteness make this a very enjoyable video. Xxx
I'm new to the channel, but I love that Jen just picked every twist and phrase before it happened. I think that speaks more to Spielberg tapping into the universality of the story than it being a bunch of tired stuff.
You must have had a blast editing this reaction. Especially going back and watching the first 15 minutes again knowing that was young Indiana. Great reaction as always.
@Jen Murray Indianna Indy was the name of George Lucas's dog he had a Malamute cross Husky that he would bounce ideas off when writing ✍️ hence the reference at the end "we named the dog Indianna." "You were named after the dog." "I have a lot of fond memories of that dog."' I thought you might find this amusing 😄.
Jen, at the end when the 700 year old Knight is waving bye to them, after they lose the grail in a crevice and destroy the temple, he's like, Fucking Kids
"Imagine having a snake in your pants..." 2:57 Phrasing! (I'm sure others have made the joke, but I can't resist) This really was the perfect end to the franchise & like many others I wish they hadn't tried to continue it. Oh well, that's for you to judge for yourself.
This is the ultimate Father and Son Story. It made $474 million dollars against a $60 million dollar budget, making it the highest grossing movie of 1989. It won the Oscar for Best Sound Editing. The opening scene was going to involve Indy battling ghosts in a haunted Scottish castle but this was too similar to Speilberg's movie Poltergeist. The original script had Indy battling the Monkey King over The Tree Of Knowledge, which would later today the into The Holy Grail.
The snake bit with young Indy gave all new meaning to that phrase ‘ is that a snake in your pants or are you happy to see me?’ 🤣 Also that betrayal was very ‘cold’ by Elsa..🙃 And lol at ‘shut it frauline’ 😂
Another GREAT reaction! Thank you! And a newbie to Sean Connery, eh? Then you must go back to the beginning, and see the first ever James Bond movie, Dr. No (1962) !
This is the one movie that has it all. Action, romance, betrayal, Nazis, history, Grail lore, humor... Definitely the best one of them all. The casting was perfect for everyone, especially Sean Connery. For a great movie with him in it is "Highlander".
Jen "ewww can you imagine having a snake in your pants." Every Male Fan: "Heeeeey?" But if you want a god Sean Connery movie you need to check out The Rock. It will appeal to tactical Jens action movie side, and you get crazy ass Nick Cage to boot. The one thing in never got was why they made Marcus and Salla a comedy act in this movie? They were so much more professional and helpful to Indy in Raiders. DAAAAAAAMN Jen got savage on Elsa after the Betrayal. I love how so many people miss the fact that the only time his dad calls him Indiana is when he talks to him like he's correcting a dog. And it worked 😂
So much is quietly explained in the opening scene in the desert, even down to us getting to actually see Indiana's namesake as young Indy went running into the house and the dog watched him dash past. 🙂 Hate of snakes, scar on chin, affection for whips, and the dog. Perfect. It was nice having the love interest also be a semi-villain, dedicated, much like the group in the beginning, more to recovering treasures for pay than for understanding or appreciating the actual worth of them. And having a semi-villain, in Kazim of the Brotherhood of the Cruciform Sword, actually be a hero, though one with a different final goal than the Jones group. And the actor playing Kazim had an appropriate background for playing such a character, as the actor attended Holy Cross Seminary in Istanbul when he was younger. 🙂 Such an excellent movie and the perfect final chapter to the Indiana Jones series, by which I mean don't watch any of the later cash grabs profaning the name. Looking forward to classic Sean Connery in Dr. No soon!!!!!
I found it fascinating….when Indy runs into h. Here’s a guy who wants power, in any fashion, even searching out relics….gets a 40+ years of research diary, maps and all to the greatest relic of all time. Has no idea, then his ego signs it…….Jones for the biggest trolling ever!!
The funny part with casting, was Sean Connery, the original James Bond, an action star, who was now playing Indiana Jones's dad. The 4th was filmed decades later & was not well received (now he's fighting Russians rather than Nazi's), the 5th was filmed a decade or 2 after than with Jones in his 70's, treasure hunting with Marcus's daughter.
Connery's casting was very impactful for James Bond fans. Also, "Indiana" isn't Ford's character's name. That was the dogs name. His name is also Henry Jones. That's why his dad calls him junior. The 4th one isn't as good, but they have filmed some of the 5th one in my hometown, and it sounds like that's meant to be pretty good. There are some parts of the 4th one that I think you will like.
What to do when one wakes up too early continue my jenventure ofc 🎉 this was a lot of fun and a lovely way to start the day and seeing ya fingers twiddling with the cord always makes me happy ( its the little things ) 🙂 cheers jen this was awesome
Recommendations (very much so!): -- _"Highlander"_ [another excellent Connery movie!] -- _"Quigley Down Under"_ [introduces you to Tom Selleck(!)] -- _"The Mask Of Zorro"_ [another great Connery flick!] -- _"Oscar"_ [an amazing Mafia-Comedy w/ Sylvester Stallone as the lead, and never-ending 'straight man'] -- _"Without A Clue"_ [a truly hilarious Sherlock Holmes spoof, that you can really enjoy even if you're not a Holmes fan!] *Enjoy!*
I would put this and Die Hard with a Vengeance as the two greatest three-quels of all time. Amazing movie and oh so fitting send off to Indiana Jones. (there is no 4th film, after all).
BTW, the "she talks in her sleep line" was improvised by Connery. Ford's reaction is real, and it make the whole crew crack up, so they kept it in the film.
Seems like River really studied Harrison's mannerisms and the way he speaks. It just now dawned on me that River played Harrison's son in The Mosquito Coast a few years earlier. I'd totally forgotten about that one.
31:49 "Why are you sitting there, _resting,_ when we're so near the _end?"_ "I can't go anywhere, now. I don't have my _hat._ Oh, here it is. Okay. I'm on my way."
Aweee Jen. Your facial expressions are so priceless. When you found out the good Dr. Schnider was double-dipping in bed with both Papa and INdy JOnes. What an EPIC lady. To lay with two of the most handsome actors of all time. Well played Dr. Schnider. Well played.
Re-watch. 💜 The Hitler signature scene. 😂 The actor who played Hitler in this film was English actor Michael Sheard. He played a small role in Star Wars: The Empire Strike Back as Admiral Ozzel, however Vader Force-chokes him to death for messing up a surprise invasion. He also had a role in a much loved, long-running UK school drama / comedy for teens called Grange Hill. In that he played a fearsome teacher everyone was afraid of called 'Mr. Bronson'. (😂)
This brings back great memories. I went to see this film with my best friend Jason. We ate a tasty pizza at my folks house beforehand. We then drove to the theater at my favorite mall. I remember they showed the movie in either THX or Dolby surround sound (Multi- speaker sound ) The movie was amazing ! I was 19. Cheers and thanks.....
Jen, after the trilogy, George Lucas released the Young Indiana Jones Adventures. In it, he wanted to show history of the early 20th century through Indy’s eyes though age 20, as well as his relationship with his father, and the loss of his mother: ruclips.net/p/PLcDyf8W4gXOGXdUWDJW8gxIO-H7ErOFGt

I remember having such a huge crush on her as a kid XD
Good job with that last line. :D
Like Frozen... let it go.
!oh yes, at the end Jen actually said; 'Schneider, I did 'nazi' that coming'.
The actress who played Elsa, Alison Doody was great playing another villain in the movie RRR. She seems to have aged gracefully as she looks great in that movie
“I thought I’d lost you, boy!”
“I thought you had too, sir.”
Gets me every time. 😢
23:59 "No ticket."
An _exquisitely_ German attitude. Note how _no_ one doubts Indy's authenticity.

That was one heck of a day.
iirc they were planning on river taking over the movie role.
His appropriation of that lead henchman's hat and style... 😅😜
I like how she described the guy with the hat as pretend Indy when he in fact was the one that influenced Indy.
@@tremorsfan It's something I don't like about prequels; they seem to believe that they HAVE to explain every little detail in one short period.

I'm not when you have two fabulous actors who like each other a great deal on and off screen it's makes for fab chemistry.
Most of the big franchises that are sequential (barring star wars and star trek) have this issue.
I think River Phoenix was cast perfectly as a young Indiana Jones. His mannerisms were bang on. Lost this great actor way too soon
Perhaps he shouldn't have done all those drugs.
Ghb and alcohol do not mix people. River Phoenix killed himself the moment he took that cap of G while already being so drunk he couldn't walk.

Yes yes yes yes!!!!!!!
I saw this one when it came out, tho my sister & I might do a rewatch cuz neither of us remember it at all

" i should have watched this with my dad"
she had no idea how true that was.
Indiana Jones last crusade movie, my favorite Indiana Jones movies. 🤠👍👌
Sean Connery and Roger Moore were and are the most recognizable James Bond actors. Indiana jones and the last crusade is often the favorite among viewers of the Indiana jones trilogy with Raiders of the Lost Ark often a very close second. There is a fourth Indiana Jones Movie released in 2008 called, ‘Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull’ with a musical score once again provide by and composed by John Williams.
According to google it received generally good views from critics and more polarized and likely varied reviews from general audiences. For some viewers the best part of the fourth Indiana Jones movie is seeing Indians jones reconnect with original love interest Marion Ravenwood. I leave it up to you Jen if you want to check it out and decide for yourself if the fourth Indiana Jones movie is a good or at last decent follow up to the original Indiana Jones Trilogy. Love your reaction channel and your movie reactions. I also enjoy your beautiful and sweet personality.
3:30: Jen, the whip hitting his face was an in-joke, explaining how he got a scar on his chin. In reality, Harrison got the scar in an auto accident.
The four of them riding off into the sunset was quite a shot. The challenge was to find a sunset with nothing else in the picture - no trees, no poles, no fences, etc. One of the very few places on earth that met all the criteria was this guy's huge ranch in Texas. Anyway, that's what I read many years ago. I hope I remembered it right.
Yes! This is my all-time favorite Indiana Jones movie! Rest in Peace River Phoenix.
RIP Sean Connery too.
Enjoyed your reaction and love this movie! Most people like "Raiders" the most but this is my personal favorite. It's interesting how "Elsa" falls off the edge towards the end and soon after we hear, "Let it go!" :) Keep up the good work.
Hi Jen, would love to see you react to The Mask of Zorro. It's a swashbuckling adventure starring Anthony Hopkins, Antonio Banderas, and Catherine Zeta-Jones. It's a really fun watch!
Now you know where Indy got his fear of snakes and the scar on his chin.
Also, Indiana was the name of George Lucas' dog. The dog was also his inspiration for the character of Chewbacca.
Damn, that must be one messed-up looking dog!
The Treasury at Petra looked incredible in this film, really thought it was amazing as a little kid. Still do.
I love how when Indy punches someone, it sounds like somebody broke a 2x4 over a side of beef, and whenever he fires a pistol, it sounds like a deck gun on the Bismarck.
Well done Jen, you are a joy to watch. There is only one more movie that I know of, "Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull." It wasn't as good as any of these first 3, but it was enjoyable. I think you should watch it.
After watching your excitement over this installment of Indiana Jones, I’m even more convinced you’ll love
National Treasure- there’s a similar father/son repartee, not giving anything away- thats similar to The Last Crusade
Sean Connery gently calling his son "Indiana" always gets me
Loved this. Don't second guess yourself. You nailed it right away with Schneider.
Love when he finds the X in the library... he looks at it on the floor like he isn't sure but it's revealed when he goes up the stairs.... Like, Indy, you couldn't see that it was an X while on the floor? Seriously?
Ya I thought the same thing. A better way would have had him racing around looking for it then while on the stairs have him spotting it from above and "X marks the spot".
@@ronweber1402 The idea was always fine, but the 'X' had to be much larger and maybe in a kind of artistic design to mask the obviousness of it. Otherwise it's always struck me as a silly part of the movie. Still my favorite of the series though.
Fun fact...the guy who played Hitler also played Admiral Kendel Ozzel in Empire Strikes Back. :)
A really fun movie that is very re-watchable. Great job Jen, very cool reactions.
George Lucas had a dog named Indiana, which was both the inspiration for Chewbacca in Star Wars, and name-wise for Indiana Jones.
Hi Jen,finally got to the best Indy movie (hooray! ) I'm going to try again with this suggestion, Tom Selleck in Quigley down under. A new leading man to add to your collection. Great film, and probably his best role. Please give it a chance.
Good suggestion.
Wonderful chemistry between the two of them in this. For me, this stands shoulder to shoulder with the first film. As always, Jen, your humour and cuteness make this a very enjoyable video. Xxx
I'm new to the channel, but I love that Jen just picked every twist and phrase before it happened. I think that speaks more to Spielberg tapping into the universality of the story than it being a bunch of tired stuff.
this one is my favorite! HF & SC played so perfectly off each other. and SC held his own as a dashing, ass-kicking archaeologist.
Jen is almost as excited for a map as she is for explosions.
You must have had a blast editing this reaction. Especially going back and watching the first 15 minutes again knowing that was young Indiana. Great reaction as always.
I have an amazing editor Steph G who does most videos now! Lol yes I did figure that out eventually, so cool 😆
@@jenmurrayxo I love your reactions the most beloved expressions xxx
@Jen Murray Indianna Indy was the name of George Lucas's dog he had a Malamute cross Husky that he would bounce ideas off when writing ✍️ hence the reference at the end "we named the dog Indianna." "You were named after the dog." "I have a lot of fond memories of that dog."' I thought you might find this amusing 😄.
The Hunt For Red October is a good Sean Connery movie Jen!
Hunt for Red October is on my channel!
Jen: "This one is really funny!"
Me: "This one played the dwarf warrior Gimli son of Gloin in the " Lord of the Rings" trilogy.
Every time I watch this movie I get depressed when I see River Phoenix as young Indiana Jones. It still seems like yesterday. R.I.P. River.
"I didn't know you could fly a plane."
"Fly? Yes. Land? No."
It's Harrison Ford in real life.
Jen, at the end when the 700 year old Knight is waving bye to them, after they lose the grail in a crevice and destroy the temple, he's like, Fucking Kids
The movie begins in 1912 where it has been a year since Anna Jones death. You have to keep drinking from the cup to stay young.
"Imagine having a snake in your pants..." 2:57
Phrasing! (I'm sure others have made the joke, but I can't resist) This really was the perfect end to the franchise & like many others I wish they hadn't tried to continue it. Oh well, that's for you to judge for yourself.
Maybe the best part 3 in any movie franchise, along with _Back to the Future Part 3._
This is the ultimate Father and Son Story.
It made $474 million dollars against a $60 million dollar budget, making it the highest grossing movie of 1989.
It won the Oscar for Best Sound Editing.
The opening scene was going to involve Indy battling ghosts in a haunted Scottish castle but this was too similar to Speilberg's movie Poltergeist.
The original script had Indy battling the Monkey King over The Tree Of Knowledge, which would later today the into The Holy Grail.
The whip, the scar- good exposition.
The snake bit with young Indy gave all new meaning to that phrase ‘ is that a snake in your pants or are you happy to see me?’ 🤣
Also that betrayal was very ‘cold’ by Elsa..🙃 And lol at ‘shut it frauline’ 😂
Another GREAT reaction! Thank you! And a newbie to Sean Connery, eh? Then you must go back to the beginning, and see the first ever James Bond movie, Dr. No (1962) !
Dr No is in editing now! Coming Sept 6! 👍
Please check out several Harrison Ford movies:
1985 Witness
1986 The Mosquito Coast
1988 Frantic
No one has reacted to these 3 classics.
Jen is extremly smart. She would manage those 3 traps easily. Myself would just die at the first trap 😂
This is the one movie that has it all. Action, romance, betrayal, Nazis, history, Grail lore, humor... Definitely the best one of them all. The casting was perfect for everyone, especially Sean Connery. For a great movie with him in it is "Highlander".
Highlander doesn’t hold up as well as I’d like, but still worth it for sure!
@Dayspring I think so. To each their own.
Jen "ewww can you imagine having a snake in your pants."
Every Male Fan: "Heeeeey?"
But if you want a god Sean Connery movie you need to check out The Rock. It will appeal to tactical Jens action movie side, and you get crazy ass Nick Cage to boot.
The one thing in never got was why they made Marcus and Salla a comedy act in this movie? They were so much more professional and helpful to Indy in Raiders.
DAAAAAAAMN Jen got savage on Elsa after the Betrayal.
I love how so many people miss the fact that the only time his dad calls him Indiana is when he talks to him like he's correcting a dog. And it worked 😂
I gave a physical applause when Dr. No was mentioned. x
So much is quietly explained in the opening scene in the desert, even down to us getting to actually see Indiana's namesake as young Indy went running into the house and the dog watched him dash past. 🙂 Hate of snakes, scar on chin, affection for whips, and the dog. Perfect.
It was nice having the love interest also be a semi-villain, dedicated, much like the group in the beginning, more to recovering treasures for pay than for understanding or appreciating the actual worth of them. And having a semi-villain, in Kazim of the Brotherhood of the Cruciform Sword, actually be a hero, though one with a different final goal than the Jones group. And the actor playing Kazim had an appropriate background for playing such a character, as the actor attended Holy Cross Seminary in Istanbul when he was younger. 🙂
Such an excellent movie and the perfect final chapter to the Indiana Jones series, by which I mean don't watch any of the later cash grabs profaning the name.
Looking forward to classic Sean Connery in Dr. No soon!!!!!
I found it fascinating….when Indy runs into h. Here’s a guy who wants power, in any fashion, even searching out relics….gets a 40+ years of research diary, maps and all to the greatest relic of all time. Has no idea, then his ego signs it…….Jones for the biggest trolling ever!!
The funny part with casting, was Sean Connery, the original James Bond, an action star, who was now playing Indiana Jones's dad. The 4th was filmed decades later & was not well received (now he's fighting Russians rather than Nazi's), the 5th was filmed a decade or 2 after than with Jones in his 70's, treasure hunting with Marcus's daughter.
Connery's casting was very impactful for James Bond fans. Also, "Indiana" isn't Ford's character's name. That was the dogs name. His name is also Henry Jones. That's why his dad calls him junior. The 4th one isn't as good, but they have filmed some of the 5th one in my hometown, and it sounds like that's meant to be pretty good. There are some parts of the 4th one that I think you will like.
Funny story about the tank scene. While riding the horse, Harrison couldn't keep his hat on. After several takes, he stapled it to his head.
What to do when one wakes up too early continue my jenventure ofc 🎉 this was a lot of fun and a lovely way to start the day and seeing ya fingers twiddling with the cord always makes me happy ( its the little things ) 🙂 cheers jen this was awesome
Recommendations (very much so!):
-- _"Highlander"_
[another excellent Connery movie!]
-- _"Quigley Down Under"_
[introduces you to Tom Selleck(!)]
-- _"The Mask Of Zorro"_
[another great Connery flick!]
-- _"Oscar"_
[an amazing Mafia-Comedy w/
Sylvester Stallone as the lead,
and never-ending 'straight man']
-- _"Without A Clue"_
[a truly hilarious Sherlock Holmes
spoof, that you can really enjoy
even if you're not a Holmes fan!]
*Enjoy!*
Ha. Interesting, that Jen asks “good guy or bad guy?” the moment Donovan is introduced.
I would put this and Die Hard with a Vengeance as the two greatest three-quels of all time. Amazing movie and oh so fitting send off to Indiana Jones. (there is no 4th film, after all).
BTW, the "she talks in her sleep line" was improvised by Connery. Ford's reaction is real, and it make the whole crew crack up, so they kept it in the film.
Sean Connery and Harrison Ford have a beautiful chemistry.
Seems like River really studied Harrison's mannerisms and the way he speaks. It just now dawned on me that River played Harrison's son in The Mosquito Coast a few years earlier. I'd totally forgotten about that one.
31:49 "Why are you sitting there, _resting,_ when we're so near the _end?"_
"I can't go anywhere, now. I don't have my _hat._ Oh, here it is. Okay. I'm on my way."
Aweee Jen. Your facial expressions are so priceless. When you found out the good Dr. Schnider was double-dipping in bed with both Papa and INdy JOnes. What an EPIC lady. To lay with two of the most handsome actors of all time. Well played Dr. Schnider. Well played.
Young Indy whips his chin to match Harrison Ford's real chin scar.
Re-watch. 💜 The Hitler signature scene. 😂 The actor who played Hitler in this film was English actor Michael Sheard. He played a small role in Star Wars: The Empire Strike Back as Admiral Ozzel, however Vader Force-chokes him to death for messing up a surprise invasion.
He also had a role in a much loved, long-running UK school drama / comedy for teens called Grange Hill. In that he played a fearsome teacher everyone was afraid of called 'Mr. Bronson'. (😂)
5:53: “Dr.Tyree” was actually the name of one of Harrison’s college professors.
There is still a wonderful surprise in the next one. Don't be influenced by the naysayers. It's a good movie.
Even with the drag factor of Shia ...
This brings back great memories. I went to see this film with my best friend Jason. We ate a tasty pizza at my folks house beforehand. We then drove to the theater at my favorite mall. I remember they showed the movie in either THX or Dolby surround sound (Multi- speaker sound ) The movie was amazing ! I was 19. Cheers and thanks.....
I love that pause when the old night says he chose.. poorly. Makes me laugh every time
Jen, after the trilogy, George Lucas released the Young Indiana Jones Adventures. In it, he wanted to show history of the early 20th century through Indy’s eyes though age 20, as well as his relationship with his father, and the loss of his mother:
ruclips.net/p/PLcDyf8W4gXOGXdUWDJW8gxIO-H7ErOFGt
It's a shame he George Lucas'd it and chopped it up and deleted all the Old Indy scenes and has suppressed the original cuts.
