I also doubt the joke from Pitch Meeting had so much underlayers tho.
That's total bs. The Last Supper was a ritual Seder. While there are also plates used, the cup is emphasized particularly within the narratives (See 1 Corinthians 11:24-25 and the synoptic Gospels)
I think the second blade was there so you HAD to kneel, instead of crawling in. You'd think that would be the first thing that would occur to people, to go in crawling, or doubled over to evade whatever is cutting off the heads of the previous guys, but then that second blade comes up and "slice", that doesn't work either. The only way to evade both blades is to be vertical, but lowered. Kneeling. Or, if you flop forward on dropping to your knees, do a Ninja roll.

Henry's reaction to Indy "falling" off the cliff, followed by Indy's incorrect interpretation of why everyone is staring, is both heart-wrenching and comedy gold
And at the same time, a continuation of his on-going failure to get validation from his father. From the very beginning of the movie, when his father blows off his efforts to -show how he, Henry Jr is following in his footsteps- alert an adult to the crime afoot, Indy is constantly trying to show everyone how much COOLER he is than Henry, and at the same time, trying to get Henry to acknowledge him, to say that he appreciates him or loves him. When Henry expresses regret over hitting him on breaking into his cell, only for it to be regret for the antique he thinks he has destroyed, when Henry is unimpressed during the motorcycle chase, when he fails to take the memory bait in the dining room of the zeppelin, and then argues back when Indiana finally comes right out and SAYS what has been bothering him about their relationship. And now, even though he embraces Indiana at discovering he is alive, he barely pauses a moment before running off to continue the quest. Because the world is at stake, as he has pointed out several times already. It all leads up to the climax of their relationship arc, when Henry delivers the magnificent line "Indiana, let it go." When push comes to shove, he makes it absolutely and abundantly clear that his son is more important to him than the sacred relic, the ultimate prize, the very ideal or epitome of the object of a quest. That he will even humble himself to use the nickname he resists all other times, if that's what it takes to get his son back. That's the prize that Indy has been pursuing all his life, and what makes the ending happy.
@@cowboycurtis2229 In the moment it's "Ready, fire, aim!", but after a few seconds it would have been obvious that the boat was unmanned for several reasons.
And it could've been fixed with just one line, like "Dad, what are you doing?!" and then Sean Connery says "Oops!" You still get to have the chase scene, and you still get to have a little clever boat decoy, but just changing it to a slightly comedic mistake of an old man being too trigger-happy with the gas pedal makes it make sense.

The irony is that even though Elsa's "it would not be made of gold" line is supposed to be meaningful, it's like... ummm, guys... ONE OF THESE CUPS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHERS. 😂🤣😂 I mean, there should have been all sorts of plain ones as well. Glass... iron... hardened leather... wax... whatever. But when ONE cup is fruggin' plain as F and everything else looks like something only Skeletor would accept to drink from, yah, the answer is obvious. 😁
What a lovely way to finish off a series - Indy and his Dad riding off into the sunset, never to appear in another film again, ever. I like it when Hollywood leaves a long loved movie series alone and doesn't resurrect a series 20, 30 years down the line.
"How did they get there undetected?" "Offscreen." Yes, the best things take place Offscreen. Also, rest in Peace, River Phoenix, he should have had a more long lasting career.
Sure, but PP/K was a hot new and _extremely_ popular carry pistol in Germany of that period. Hitler shot himself with one :kappa: Still is a great carry pistol if you ask me.

I was 10 when this movie came out and when my grandparents took me to see it, I thought (in my little kid head) that because Indy and his dad drank from the grail, they were immortal. So I thought he was immortal from now on. It wasn't until later on, around high school, where I watched it again and realized the whole "you gotta keep it here" rule.
That dude's white suit was iconic (and equally ridiculous) on a boat upon the high seas. 😂 Also, I love how they simply cut away from how Jones escapes. Yes, we all saw the convenient orange life donut, but... ummm... so where were they? A few miles from shore? Twenty? Six-hundred? And Jones is gonna PADDLE into the night or somethin'? 🤣

I'd say that there are big differences. The Nazi castle and that room, in particular, are filled with flammable objects (the rug, the chairs, the table, the tapestries) that are clearly shown to be what spreads the fire and there's never any insinuation that the castle, itself, is in any danger. In The Acolyte, the witches' fortress had hardly anything flammable around, the fire was shown spreading across a bare stone floor and up a bare stone wall and it led to the collapse of the entire structure. 'Last Crusade' maybe stretched believability a little (for the sake of comedy, it should also be noted), but The Acolyte threw it completely out of the window (and while trying to be serious and dramatic).
This is one of the examples where the “mistakes” are so endearing that you can look past them. It’s one of my favorite examples of “why? Because” when I talk about movies
I'm so glad they never continued that series. It was perfect as it is. Not that I wouldn't have wanted to see _Fate_ on the big screen though. But those three movies were enough and _Crusade_ was a perfect closure for the character of Indiana Jones.
Considering it was medieval Christian knights of the Crusades era who used medieval Latin, yes they would definitely have no qualms writing down the name of god.
I think the more important question is why there was a "J" there if it's supposed to pre-date the existence of that letter? ("J" is likely only invented in 16th century) I suppose it could be some later attempt to troll people for using too modern of an alphabet...
@@scienceface8884 "In my day we had 23 letters, and that was all we needed; young people these days are totally spoiled with their J's, and U's, and W's."
@@timothypollard6008 Yup. J was never part of the latin alphabet officially, though if you'd shown someone a "J" in that time period, they would have treated it as a variant of I.
A couple of fun facts regarding the film. 1. Originally they were going to have Gregory Peck play Henry Jones Sr. I don't remember the reason they decided to not go with him, but just did. 2. The opening sequence was going to be Indy fighting a ghost in Scotland, but Spielberg didn't want to do Ghosts again after Poltergeist.
They actually wrote it with Sean Connery in mind. But Connery stated he was taking a break from acting after his last bond film and wasn't clear how long that would be. Spielberg started looking for other actors during preproduction and Gregory peck was on the short list for consideration. Turns out Connery only took a couple years off and agreed to do the Indiana Jones film. You'll notice there's a five year gap between Jones films, if they had started much sooner than Connery might not have been available.
@@Vincent_Beers William Shatner also wanted Connery to play Sybok in Star Trek V, which was released at the same time as Last Crusade. I think Connery chose wisely. Sha Ka Ree was in Star Trek V was named after SEAn COnneRY.
March 1989 I was a kid visiting Hollywood for the first time and at the famous Chinese theater there was a poster “the man in the hat is back, and this time he’s bringing his dad.” This and bttf2 made 1989 one of the greatest years ever!! Not to mention quantum leap premiering. Rip river phoenix.
Oh no you just systematically picked apart one of my favourite movies, rolling before god, holding onto letters that should also fall, plates being in the grail room. Laughed so hard😅
@@Gnarfledarf Yes because you see, they would never admit to it, that’s why it’s quiet. Obviously. You better believe that was intentional and not a typo, that would never happen to me.
If you've ever been to a Catholic mass, having to do a little roll on top of all the standing and kneeling, standing and kneeling would not seem entirely out of place.
In the screenplay, the writer introduces Dr. Henry Jones Sr as "(60s, a Sean Connery-type. Let's get Sean Connery to play him. I'm going to write all his dialogue in Scottish dialect)".

Hey Ryan, love the videos! I really think you should do a pitch for the movie Timer(2009), it has a ridiculous premise and the plot is goofy, could make a great video!
@@thomgizziz Next time I find a chalice in a cave, I'm going to clove-hitch a piece of string to the base and tie the other end to my hand, just in case.
No, because neither the cup nor the person who has drank from it should go past the seal ("that's the boundary and the price of immortality"). So had he stayed in the cave, he would have been immortal (just like the knight), but he didn't.
@@AnOnymous-go7kn So if you got a very long string, tie one end to the cup, leave the temple, tie the other end to the saddle on your horse, then ride really fast, can you then get the cup without being blamed, or does your horse die? Also, if you wait an extra hundred years, can you just send an android into the cave to get it? Asking for a friend.
I believe the original writing was "YHWH", and people guessed at additional vowels from there, hence "Yahweh" or "Jehovah" (actually "Yehowah", in that case). Makes one wonder, though. Maybe that's just how they wrote back then, with implied vowels... or it was meant to be some kind of divine mystery, a name never fully known. Or they literally just had a god called "YHWH" and were like "Yeah, so what?" And this is the root of the same religious tradition that now encompasses all jewish, christian and muslim people, by the way! And also mormons and whatnot, I guess? So that's fun!
I like how Donovan doesn't even question Elsa when she just randomly picks a random golden cup. He was so sure it was the grail that he didn't force her or Indy to take a sip first.
It's not petrol. It's petroleum. Oil. And they don't swim through it exactly. I mean, technically they do, but almost all of that is water. There's some petroleum on the surface because there's seep or a spring down there.
@@jasontodd9I was under the impression it was like a river of it, not just on the surface? Like I know oil floats on the surface I just thought there was no water at all, and just a typical movie goof
@@OrangeDog20 No they're not, they are two different things. For Petrol see here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline For Petroleum see here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroleum
@@LlamaBobby When Indy breaks through the wall and lands in the water he gets up and rubs his fingers together and says "Petroleum. I should sink a well down here and retire." He notices that the water is slick on top. There's also a spot that's bubbling where he sticks the cloth wrapped bone to light and use as a torch. That's a petroleum/oil spring or seep (probably a spring, because a seep would be unlikely to bubble like that). Kazim also lights the surface on fire, but only the surface, and Indy and Elsa are able to cover themselves with a casket to block the fire and swim down to safety. If it was all oil, they'd be incinerated, because it would all ignite. Also petroleum is dark brown/black and opaque. Their clothes, hair, and faces would be covered in a thick layer of the stuff, and we wouldn't be able to see any of their bodies under the surface when they're hiding in the casket. We also wouldn't be able to see Indy at all when he swims down.
Damn, I’ve just realized how fast Ryan speaks during his videos because of the way he says “this is me from the thing you’ve just watched…” so slow/normal 😅
Donovan early in the movie: "I have a PASSION for antiquities!" Donovan when choosing the grail: "I'm not a historian, I have no idea what it looks like!"
That disturbed look the ProducerGuy has when PitchGuy talks about both Henry and Indiana hooking up with the same woman is exactly how most people felt when they had that realization.

When push comes to shove, he makes it absolutely and abundantly clear that his son is more important to him than the sacred relic, the ultimate prize, the very ideal or epitome of the object of a quest. That he will even humble himself to use the nickname he resists all other times, if that's what it takes to get his son back. That's the prize that Indy has been pursuing all his life, and what makes the ending happy.
Not waiting until the Nazis actually left the dock in the boat has driven me nuts since I was a kid.
The fact that the boat was only like 20 yards away and the Nazis couldn't tell that it was obviously empty is what drove me nuts.

It's actually genius, because it stops you from wondering how they closed the crate while being inside of it.
@@beckobert Screenwriter Guy would be proud.
And it could've been fixed with just one line, like "Dad, what are you doing?!" and then Sean Connery says "Oops!" You still get to have the chase scene, and you still get to have a little clever boat decoy, but just changing it to a slightly comedic mistake of an old man being too trigger-happy with the gas pedal makes it make sense.

Great that no one made any unnecessary sequels that would have ruined the trilogy…

A castle more flammable than a Star Wars castle.
At least there were tapestries in Indiana Jones 😅
Was thinking the same 😂
Or the stone castle in the Acolyte.
@@daveeyes That's..... Kinda the one I was referring to...
I'd say that there are big differences. The Nazi castle and that room, in particular, are filled with flammable objects (the rug, the chairs, the table, the tapestries) that are clearly shown to be what spreads the fire and there's never any insinuation that the castle, itself, is in any danger. In The Acolyte, the witches' fortress had hardly anything flammable around, the fire was shown spreading across a bare stone floor and up a bare stone wall and it led to the collapse of the entire structure. 'Last Crusade' maybe stretched believability a little (for the sake of comedy, it should also be noted), but The Acolyte threw it completely out of the window (and while trying to be serious and dramatic).
“So the penitent man kneels before god and also does a cool little ninja roll?”

I'm so glad they never continued that series. It was perfect as it is.
Not that I wouldn't have wanted to see _Fate_ on the big screen though.

"Oh! So people used to write Jehovah in Latin?"
"They probably did."
"Should we check?"
"Nah, it's probably fine."
Considering it was medieval Christian knights of the Crusades era who used medieval Latin, yes they would definitely have no qualms writing down the name of god.
I think the more important question is why there was a "J" there if it's supposed to pre-date the existence of that letter? ("J" is likely only invented in 16th century)

A couple of fun facts regarding the film.
1. Originally they were going to have Gregory Peck play Henry Jones Sr. I don't remember the reason they decided to not go with him, but just did.
2. The opening sequence was going to be Indy fighting a ghost in Scotland, but Spielberg didn't want to do Ghosts again after Poltergeist.
They actually wrote it with Sean Connery in mind. But Connery stated he was taking a break from acting after his last bond film and wasn't clear how long that would be.
Spielberg started looking for other actors during preproduction and Gregory peck was on the short list for consideration.
Turns out Connery only took a couple years off and agreed to do the Indiana Jones film. You'll notice there's a five year gap between Jones films, if they had started much sooner than Connery might not have been available.
Didn't you hear? Mr. screewriter guy asked for Sean Connery!!! You'd think people would learn something from RUclips....

One thing I've always wondered...is Indy's dad immortal now?
I mean, Sean Connery playing an immortal, that's just silly, right?
If so he is the only one... the cup is lost down that chasm... too bad it wasnt in a higher piece of land.
@@thomgizziz Next time I find a chalice in a cave, I'm going to clove-hitch a piece of string to the base and tie the other end to my hand, just in case.
No, because neither the cup nor the person who has drank from it should go past the seal ("that's the boundary and the price of immortality"). So had he stayed in the cave, he would have been immortal (just like the knight), but he didn't.
@@AnOnymous-go7kn So if you got a very long string, tie one end to the cup, leave the temple, tie the other end to the saddle on your horse, then ride really fast, can you then get the cup without being blamed, or does your horse die?
Also, if you wait an extra hundred years, can you just send an android into the cave to get it?
Asking for a friend.
@@AnOnymous-go7kn Exactly. He got healed alright, but (probably) lost his immortality once he went past the seal.
“He grabs the L and the Y to hoist himself back up.” “Those letters are also not in Jehovah.” HEYSHUTUPAGAIN!
That part made me laugh the hardest.
I feel really dumb that I never noticed that before.
I believe the original writing was "YHWH", and people guessed at additional vowels from there, hence "Yahweh" or "Jehovah" (actually "Yehowah", in that case). Makes one wonder, though. Maybe that's just how they wrote back then, with implied vowels... or it was meant to be some kind of divine mystery, a name never fully known. Or they literally just had a god called "YHWH" and were like "Yeah, so what?"
And this is the root of the same religious tradition that now encompasses all jewish, christian and muslim people, by the way! And also mormons and whatnot, I guess? So that's fun!
He had to do some quick time events.
Yeah, the shot underneath makes it even worse. How are all those stones not falling? How did the knights even build that?
@@garysmith3037 Hey, shut up! ;)
I was hoping he'd comment on the "No ticket" scene.
I like how Donovan doesn't even question Elsa when she just randomly picks a random golden cup. He was so sure it was the grail that he didn't force her or Indy to take a sip first.
yeah, it's the holy Grail. not a dishwasher five minutes before closing at Sears :)
“So then they escape”
“How?”
“They swim through the petrol”
“Wouldn’t that be terrible on their eyes?”
“Hey so shut up again…”
It's not petrol. It's petroleum. Oil. And they don't swim through it exactly. I mean, technically they do, but almost all of that is water. There's some petroleum on the surface because there's seep or a spring down there.
@@jasontodd9 petrol is short for petroleum. They are the same thing.
@@jasontodd9I was under the impression it was like a river of it, not just on the surface? Like I know oil floats on the surface I just thought there was no water at all, and just a typical movie goof
@@OrangeDog20 No they're not, they are two different things. For Petrol see here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline For Petroleum see here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petroleum
@@LlamaBobby When Indy breaks through the wall and lands in the water he gets up and rubs his fingers together and says "Petroleum. I should sink a well down here and retire." He notices that the water is slick on top. There's also a spot that's bubbling where he sticks the cloth wrapped bone to light and use as a torch. That's a petroleum/oil spring or seep (probably a spring, because a seep would be unlikely to bubble like that).
Kazim also lights the surface on fire, but only the surface, and Indy and Elsa are able to cover themselves with a casket to block the fire and swim down to safety. If it was all oil, they'd be incinerated, because it would all ignite.
Also petroleum is dark brown/black and opaque. Their clothes, hair, and faces would be covered in a thick layer of the stuff, and we wouldn't be able to see any of their bodies under the surface when they're hiding in the casket. We also wouldn't be able to see Indy at all when he swims down.
Damn, I’ve just realized how fast Ryan speaks during his videos because of the way he says “this is me from the thing you’ve just watched…” so slow/normal 😅
Donovan early in the movie: "I have a PASSION for antiquities!"

“Probably isn’t one of the plates...”
And just like that, I can never rewatch that scene with the Knight without laughing.
I feel like the plates were just there to help reflect light, in the story, and for the movie production.
Maybe the Knight got bored and hammered some of the grails into plates. You can only read the same book so many times.
4:30 Weirdly, a plate might be the Grail, because in the dark Arthurian myth about seeking the Grail, it was a dish, not a cup.
lets not forget Sean Conenry PLAYED King Arthur in 'First Knight' :)
Definitely one of my top 10 favorite movies of all time.
And thus, one of my favorite pitch meetings too
Last Crusade is a classic movie. Sean Connery and Harrison Ford had amazing chemistry
That disturbed look the ProducerGuy has when PitchGuy talks about both Henry and Indiana hooking up with the same woman is exactly how most people felt when they had that realization.
