      I don't think it's all that uncommon, really. It's a much more centered film than the two others which are all over the place. I love the whole trilogy but this one is clearly the best film of the series.

      ​​​​@@sarablack2547 Agreed, a carbon copy of the first heroine wouldn't have been as interesting or have contrasted enough to be its own movie.
      What I do notice is, even for how "delicate" Willie was, she went through all that, and still had very high spirits. She could get scared and scream...but she rarely cowered, stayed mostly alert, and often argued. One needs a strong stomach for that.
      And she was still a problem solver! It's easy to complain and then do nothing, but she would complain and then _try_ something...as with the elephant. 😂😂 I mean... perfume probably wasn't the solution I'd try myself...but it was at least _something_ ! 😛

    Fun fact. The name of the child actor in this movie is Ke Huy Quan. Ke Huy Quan took a 20 year hiatus from acting and did stunt choreography and an assistant director. He returned to acting to star in the film "Everything Everywhere, All at Once (which is a must see- if y'all haven't already)." Just recently (this year), he won awards for Best Supporting Actor in the film "Everything Everywhere, All at Once," including an Academy Award. Harrison Ford and Quan reunited, and Ford congratulated him on his win after Quan did his acceptance speech at the Oscars. So, Quan had a major successful comeback into acting as an adult. Thought that was interested and wanted to share it with y'all.😊

    Ke Huy Quan, who played Short Round, also played Data in The Goonies, and appeared in the series Head of the Class, but quit acting in the 90s due to lack of opportunities. He then became a stunt coordinator. Recently he was 'rediscovered' and played Waymond Wang in Everything Everywhere All at Once to critical acclaim. He still speaks the same way.

    While climbing up the fallen bridge, Indy pointed out that the evil priest had betrayed the God Shiva and Indy was basically invoking Her punishment upon the priest by speaking in their language. The magic stones responded to Indy.
    Short Round (the little kid) was played by Ke Huy Quan. He also played in "The Goonies" and more recently the movie "Everything, Everywhere, All At Once."
    Fun Fact: This movie was rated PG, but because of all the gruesome scenes, outraged parents demanded a better rating system. So PG-13 was created.
    By all means watch the next one.

      @@nikosgreek352 Shiva is an Energy and He is Formless , here formless means , we can't restrict Shiva to any particular form / gender , since All forms are Shiva's forms. Shiva gave his half body to his best half Parvathi and thus became Ardhanareshwar. So, in this way Shiva is both the male and female energy. Shiva and Shakthi are inseparable.

      Now, to answer your question...Kali is the female counterpart to Shiva. Kali is Shiva's shakti (power), and he could not act without her assistance. Where Parvati soothes Shiva, (Parvati is the goddess of the Himalayas, the archetypal mother goddess and fertility image. She is the consort of Shiva and the mother to Ganesha and Skanda.) Kali ignites Shiva, provoking him to do wild deeds.

    Harrison Ford is one of those actors who, even when he's in a bad movie, he still gives a great performance. A couple of his other movies you might enjoy are Working Girl,The Fugitive and Sabrina.

    Speaking of the violence and disturbing images in this movie, it came out in 1984 and it was only rated PG. There was a big furor about this. Gremlins also came out at the same time and there was a big furor about it as well because it was so violent. These two movies pretty much single-handedly resulted in the new PG-13 rating that came out just after these films were released.

    "How did he make the rocks catch fire?"
    My theory - Indy arrives in India through miraculous circumstances, falling from a plane, etc, before washing up near the village. The elder says that Shiva has sent them, hinting at some divine providence.
    In the finale, when Indy and Mola Ram struggle over his satchel, Indy invokes the name of Shiva and the stones burst into flame, burning Mola but not Indy, as Indy has Shiva's blessing (or is a temporary avatar of Shiva, a common thread in Hindu mythology).
    TL;DR Shiva sent Indy to save the village

    Jonathan Ke-Quan (who plays Short Round) was also in The Goonies, the next year. That's another great film, which I'm sure you'll enjoy. It's basically where they got the inspiration for Stranger Things on Netflix (along with a bunch of other Spielberg films).
    Temple of Doom was my favourite Indy film as a child. I now love Raiders the most because it's just perfectly paced and started this entire genre ( as far as summer blockbuster movies) but this is a great sequel (prequel really because it's set in 1933). Anyway the third one, The Last Crusade is probably the favourite among Indy fans.
    Another great film from 1984 with a similar atmosphere to this film is Romancing The Stone. People at the time called it an Indy rip-off but the script was actually written before Raiders came out. To me, it's as good as this film and has a wonderful soundtrack. It's directed by Robert Zemeckis who also directed Back to the Future, Forrest Gump and other great movies. Check it out and as always, loved your reaction!

And the scene where she’s screaming and running from all the creatures at night too.

      Totally agree. While Temple is my 3rd favorite, it's NOT because it's flawed in any way - it's just that Raiders is the best adventure and Crusade is the most fun, this one, Temple, is the most realistic (even considering the dark cult aspect) - it's a human drama. I don't agree with most of the panning it gets, it's a great ride, gets the blood pumping (heart or not!)

Like falling out of an airplane in an inflatable raft and surviving the landing, and then the fall off the cliff, not to mention the mining cart flying off one set of rails and landing perfectly on the other isn't also completely unrealistic. All the people whining about KotCS were simply seeing Indiana Jones from an adult perspective after remembering the original three from a child's perspective.

    The victim's chant was developed on set following director Steven Spielberg and the production team telling Karanj how his character was to die. They asked what he would say and Karanj responded with "Om Namah Shivaya". "Om Namah Shivaya", is a Hindu mantra which means "adoration to Lord Shiva".

    The man being lowered into the lave was praying for Shiva, one of the main Hindu gods, to save him.
    The Thuggee were an actual cult. They were basically professional robbers and murderers. Also the origin of the word thug.
    One of the big things the movie gets wrong, besides the food, is that Kali is far from evil. While she is considered ferocious and terrifying, she was more of a protector whose ultimate purpose was to destroy evil.

    George Lucas created 1 of the greatest characters ever in Indiana Jones and him with Spielberg working together on these Indiana Jones movies was the perfect dream partnership. Audiences when this was first released were not ready for this one cause it was definitely darker, especially after the first one Raiders of the Lost Ark. But getting past that initial reaction and some of the criticism it faced cause of it, (in turn even creating an extra film classification cinema certificate from the criticism), this has still become 1 of the most loved in the series especially just for the set piece action sequences which were just astounding back then what visually they created, and what even now all the decades later still looks just as awesome and a part of the magic of that period of 80's big scale movies.

    The man in the cage that had his heart taken out is chanting "Om Namah Shivaya" which is a mantra in Hindu Shiva worship. He is basically praising Shiva and the repetition of the chant is intended to help bring calm and peace to your body and soul. Many Christians tend to do the same in times of great danger or fear by reciting Psalm 23 or the lords prayer (depending on the situation).

I just think of how the action barely seems to stop, the addition of Short Round, and how he just seems to fall (literally) into this adventure always appealed to me. I wish there's been more Shorty later. You two should definitely check out the Last Crusade, it's the last great entry in the series.

    The 2 biggest movies in my mind, and won a Youth Film Award in Indiana Jones, for his role as the sidekick Short Round.
    In the 90`s, he co-starred in a sitcom Head of the Class, over two seasons.

There was a movie called "Faces Of Death" that came out in the 80s It's kind of hard to find now I imagine but there's a scene of some people at a table n a restaurant actually eating it. But it's a pretty cruel ritual to watch. They have a small live monkey in a cage of some sort and they all take turns bashing the monkey's head with a little hammer. When it finally dies, they then saw open the top of the skull and start spooning out the brains and eating it like you see in this movie.

It's not perfect by a long shot...and it's not as exciting and action packed as the first three but I got on the wavelength of what it was going for much more.
