Raiders: Epic tale in which an intrepid archaeologist tries to beat a band of Nazis to a unique religious relic which is central to their plans for world domination. Battling against a snake phobia and a vengeful ex-girlfriend, Indiana Jones is in constant peril, making hair's-breadth escapes at every turn in this celebration of the innocent adventure movies of an earlier era.
Temple of Doom: Adventure sequel. Intrepid archaeologist Indiana Jones, on the trail of fortune and glory in Old Shanghai, is ricocheted into a dangerous adventure in India. With his faithful companion Short Round and nightclub singer Willie Scott, Indie goes in search of the magical Sankara stone, and uncovers an ancient evil which threatens all who come into contact with it.
Last Crusade: The intrepid explorer Indiana Jones sets out to rescue his father, a medievalist who has vanished while searching for the Holy Grail. Following clues in the old man's notebook, Indy arrives in Venice, where he enlists the help of a beautiful academic, but they are not the only ones who are on the trail, and some sinister old enemies soon come out of the woodwork.

DARK CORNERS OF THIS SICK WORLD: The Films That Made Indiana Jones
#IndianaJones #MakingOf 
Развлечения
When Raiders of the Lost Ark first came out, I was just beginning my Graduate studies in Archaeology. When things were getting me down, I watch again to pick me up. As such, I made Archaeology my profession.
Me too. Medieval archaeology. Through thick and thin.
Not being disrespectful when I ask this….how?
Isn’t is super competitive? Are the wages liveable? Or are you living off of ramen noodles.
I grew up wanting to be a archeologist but the cruel reality of trying to get into an academic field set in for me :(
@@thereallostwalker8337 When I started doing archaeology, my first dig was in 1972, I was a volunteer. When I starting getting paid to do it it was in 1976 and I was paid an hourly wage which was just below the minimum wage of the time. In 1980, when the first movie came out. we got paid just above the minimum wage, with a per diem money that allowed us to either camp, or stay in a crummy (and I do mean crummy motel). There was of course no health benefits, or sometimes you were not paid at all if you were sick. Many of us lived in our cars for a while, when we went after our graduate degrees. Back then if you only had a AA or BA, you were not going to make much money. So to make a decent wage you had to get either an MA or Phd.
All in all though, if you are young ( Iam 69 now) and adventurous, it can be a fun lifestyle for a while until at least you are in your mid 30s.
@@thereallostwalker8337 You do not have to be strictly in the academic field to be a professional archaeologists. There are career fields with the Private Cultural Resource Management Firms, The Bureau of Land Management, the BIA, Archaeologist on a Military base, the Forest Service, and State run agencies such as Cal Trans, DOTS etc.
@@thereallostwalker8337 Those other career fields do pay competitive wages.
I think it should be noted that Harrison Ford was taught how to use a whip on the first film by a former star of classic Westerns named Lash LaRue who's signature weapon in his films was the whip
I was this many days old when I learned that, thanks! :)
thanks..I wouldn’t have known that if i didn’t nose around the comments, I start reading and miss half of what is being said.. nice 👍
I did not know that!
You have made another world class video that is better than most television productions would be on the subject.
Thank you. We make the videos that we want to make, so that probably helps.
@@DarkCornersReviews The film that made Indiana Jones is the 1954 film 'Secret of the Incas' starring Charlton Heston as character Harry Steele.
4:15 - No words have ever been truer to _Kingdom of the Crystal Skull_ than those.
In all seriousness, this was a great video. Looking at such a massive franchise in this thoughtful manner demonstrates your passion for films and just how well you can analyze them. I've said it before, and I'll say it again - Dark Corners Reviews is one of the most underrated RUclips channels I know.
Thank you for the kind words, one day we hope to be the most overrated RUclips channel.
Actually, it's Last Crusade the one that felt parodic, to the extent that certain dynamics between Connery and Ford felt more in the fashion of Billy Wilder's SOME LIKE IT HOT than Raiders (the movie Last Crusade ripped off more from). Time will provide perspective. 50 years from now, Kingdom of Crystal Skull will not be perceived as more whimsical, silly and frivolous than Temple of Doom or Last Crusade.
@@deloreanized I completely agree. The fridge scene didn't make sense but lots of things in the Last Crusade make no sense, especially at crucial parts like the climax (how did he know to roll to avoid the saw blade? why didn't the wrong letters he grabbed onto fall as well? how could the bridge blend in with the background from every perspective?) The ONE other thing people complain about is Mutt swinging along the vines, but is that really enough reason to hate the whole movie? People just hate it because it's popular to hate it. When Indy as a series eventually wains in popularity, those sheep will leave and future viewers won't be affected by their biased views.
Unofficial parody movie actually made me spit out my drink😂
Goddamn Spielberg...purposefully tries to make a b-movies....still makes a masterpiece.

thanks, man!
18:29
The rope bridge scene in Gunga Din (1939) also influenced the shot heavily.
Really great video but Gunga Din is a glaring omission. Temple of Doom is practically a remake. I'm amazed it wasn't included. You could do a whole video just on the similarities between those two movies. But great channel. Looking forward to more videos!
Your retrospectives are always outstanding....informative and entertaining. Thank you
"the unofficial parody movie" bit is spot on
Butcher Seven Actual I know. Implied Kingdom, but it does kinda feel like fan fiction.
Its damage control bull-crap.
No mention of Gunga Din? Temple of Doom is somewhat a remake of that classic. Adventures fighting off the Thuggee cult in India, replete with rickety bridges, ancient ruined temples, and stubborn elephants.
I know it was kicking around in an early draft and got lost as sequels were only mentioned tangentially. But is a good call.
What about Gary Cooper, & "The General dies at dawn"????
Or the French movie THAT MAN FROM RIO.
If they had actually made RAIDERS in 1936 Cooper would have been my choice to play Indiana Jones along with Barbara Stanwyck as Marion.
powers Jean Arthur. More of a physical actress, & "Raiders," final scene on the Courthouse steps, looks suspiciously like the final scene of, George Stevens, "Talk of the town," with, Arthur, Cary Grant, & Ronald Coleman.
There's a Shaw Brothers movie, "Lady Hermit", which features a bullwhip fight in a market, and a bridge scene nearly identical to the one in "Temple of Doom". Pretty good film, and I'd be shocked if Spielberg hadn't seen it.
I always find it amazing that Harrison Ford was the the most Icon films between 77 and 85. Its truly astonishing.
Whats more astonishing is they overlap.
"Unofficial parody movie" 😂
I thought that was the best joke until I heard "I guess it's not all good news."
That's the most lethal insult I've ever heard launched at that film. It made me laugh for ages.
I actually really liked it ffs.
@@waltz9230 Not a classic like the original trilogy but not as bad as they claim!
1941 (1979) may be a critical and commercial failure, but I like it. Full of laughs, thrills, high production values and an all-star cast, it's one of the best "worst" films ever made.
I'm always astounded by the real craftsmanship that Dark Corners puts into their videos. If it was just the schlock, that would still be great, but the variety of not only the films covered but the variety of analysis depth means DC has something for literally any kind of film fan. Salutes!
I’ve been waiting for your Indiana Jones video. It was well worth the wait. Great job. Loved it.
This is a fantastic mini doc!.Ive seen just about every doc on Jones.From the history channel to all the dvd blu-Ray extras.I leaned a lot!.Thanks!
Excellent presentation. Your videos are so well done and informative, that I enjoy watching them even if they're about a genre that I don't usually watch!
Beautiful job! Raiders is my all time favorite movie and as a result I had extensive knowledge concerning most of what you covered. Wish I could like this more!
In my opinion two very important influential movies were missed: the indian tomb and the tiger of eschnapur
Entertaining and informative - a labour of love! thanks so much!
I've been waiting for this since you guys at Dark Corners announced it. I was not disappointed. Well done.
Most excellent documentary piece! Well done and thank you.
The last film was set in the 1950's during the "Red Menace" scare and since UFO movies were metaphors for the Commies I'm surprised you didn't at least mention that. McCarthyism was in full swing with many from the entertainment industry being dragged before Congress to testify before the House Un-American Activities Committee. Many ended up being Black Listed and lost their careers. As a cinema critic you should well know it was a dark time for the industry and as hit or miss as the final film was it did at least touch on its effects when Jones lost his teaching job due to McCarthyism. My mother was very moved by the nuclear bomb test scene. As highly criticized at that part is growing up in Arizona she remembered seeing the ominous glow to the east when the tests were being done in White Sands, New Mexico just next door.
Inactually liked that movie. I think alot of hate for it was.spillover from the lucas prequel hate
B. Lloyd Reese the same hate that the sequels get too
@@starwarsprequelsandsequels7582
Albeit in the sequels case, it's more than justified...
Excellent! Definitely did your homework on this one for sure.
That was well researched and assembled. Nice job.
These videos are really top class. Thanks a lot!
Superbly done. Witty and informative.
Thanks for a great video, showing the history behind the making of Indiana Jones, very enjoyable. Please keep them coming.
Hey --they ripped off the music from Turkish Star Wars.
And they ripped off the music from Hydlide!
those hacks!
As ever, well-written, wry, concise and beautifully made. Thank you.
Another one of your great reviews!!! Thanks Robin you rock!!!!!
This was well made and informative.Thank you.
I also think "Invisible Agent" was a huge influence to "Raiders of the lost Ark"
a couple of points; first a quote (or as close as I can remember it) "the guy who thought wearing a leather jacket in the jungle was a good idea should be taken out and shot at sunrise"- Harrison Ford.
Second, there's a tv movie that is basically Raiders with a couple of twists. Curse of King Tut, just make sure it's the one from 2006.
Funny, You missed exactly the film, Spielberg mentioned himself as his main source Michael Anderson's "Doc Savage" from 1975.
Beautifully done..... Excellent
Awesome review I always thought you guys would have a few hundred thousand subscribers by now i been watching your reviews for years and they always make me laugh and learn facts
Excellent research. Great doc.
10:05 "... but a really good B Movie" - I'm glad someone said it.
Great video and I love the white tuxedo with red carnation very good at spotting that.
Great video, you've got a new subscriber. How dare Michael Bey blame Raiders for making him become a director? What did the film ever do to him?
No mention of Perils of Pauline, Alan Quartermaine and King Solomon's Mines.
This is fantastic. Thank you.
What a great video. Excellent job. Raiders is still one of my favorites. I know it's a stretch but I always thought that The 1973 Golden Voyage of Sinbad influenced Raiders as well.
You forgot "Stagecoach" from John Ford when Indy goes under the truck.
Interesting informations you deliver here that I didn't know before. Also, Indiana Jones is forever going to be my favourite movie franchise ever!
Great analysis.
Lol love the last minute roast on Michael Bay
I'd love to see a "The Films that Made Pirates of the Caribbean."
Very good video. Thanks good job 👍
Phenomenal documentary!
Great wee documentary. I’ll always love these movies,
Such a shame Hollywood wants to destroy its own legacy’s.
1:01 - Albert cubby Brocoli is on the left, you zoomed in on Harry Saltzman the other producer
Excellent overview, clearly and succinctly presented. I knew the film was "inspired" by the serials and several noteworthy films and directors, but not to the extent that it was. In fact, I begin to wonder just what is original about the film at all? Probably the fact that it had more time and money invested in it (and more advanced technology applied to it) so that all the pieces that were motivated by or lifted from prior films could be boosted to a higher production level, and therefore were to become more "applaud-able". The most ironic--if that's the word---thing pointed out here is Michael Bey's (Bay's?) admission that he was inspired by a movie that was inspired by a whole bunch of more original movies, which reveals what should have been obvious to anyone seeing Bey's movies. I think the only thing missing in this presentation was some of the usual, more cynical swipes Robin usually levels at lower budgeted films, for the sheer quantity of prior-film derivations the INDIANA JONES franchise displays. But a small complaint--if that is what this is---for an otherwise superb presentation.
Can anyone list the background music used in this excellent documentary? I recognize some of it.
Hearing G.Lucas thoughts on the Mgufin really goes to show how rise of skywalker could have been so much more
"Unofficial parody movie." Yes, exactly. I say the same about the Prequels and Sequels, too.
LUV YOUR SHOW!!!
Enough already with ignoring Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Seriously, that film is packed with great ideas. The third act is very weak but the first two are mind-blowing.
This is freakn awesome 👏👏
A+ excellent synopsis. Others should take note.
Love this series of The films that made " ..... " !
Good One...TY
12:53 See? She already had great chemistry with men in leather jackets and fedoras, one-to-one casting
It was the old time movie serials ( cliffhangers) that inspired the Indiana Jones films.
the perfect example for "copying one source is called a ripoff, but copying many sources is called inspiration "
love love love all of this
I loved researching it.
Well done.
Harry Steele’s hat isn’t technically a fedora because the brim is bigger
Not that it matters
11:38 a single shot. Good one.
this is a masterpiece of a video
No mention of Allan Quatermain & King Solomon's Mines (1937 & 1950)? 🙄
Yup that surprised me to.
What left me cold was when he mentioned the movies similar to ROTLA that Selleck and DeVito appeared on later and then he referenced 'Quigley Down Under' (which I absolutely love, in any case) for Selleck instead of 'High Road to China', and leaving out, too, any mention of the Magnum P.I. episode where Selleck actually plays Indy - all copyright stuff be damned - and John Hillerman does a nice Marcus knockoff. I'm still having a hard time accepting those omissions, specially as the overall quality of the rest of the video is topnotch as usual.
Don't think we don't hear that Skyrim music in the background lmao
I love this channel
I have to laugh watching Paul Henried and Humphrey Bogart being several inches taller than Ingrid Bergman as they walk together. Ingrid was nearly 6 feet tall, Bogart was 5'7: Movie magic.
Unofficial parody movie lmao, that one caught me offguard, well done sir
John Williams is a global treasure!
I see his new score for the latest Indiana Jones film will be his last film score.
A lot of stuff I didn't know. Cool.
thank you
13:40, the real problem with that scene isn't "how did he survive", it's actually how was he not seen. U-boats of that type only had a range of 50 miles maximum under the water, that journey would have been mostly made on the surface with a few sailors on watch on the bridge. He would have been spotted.
I loved 1941!
Indiana Jones' look was also similar to the gary cooper movie "for whom the bell tolls"
GAWD, I LOVE MOVIES !!!!!!
4:15 to real
That Zorro stunt was unreal!
I don’t think we’ ll ever take that bike ride together alon
0:49 rip Sean Connery
The Last Crusade was a fitting end to the Indiana Jones legacy, after which there were no more Indy movies ever again, period.
Oof
'Unofficial parody movie' got me
Indy really is most based on Charlton Heston in Secret of the Incas watch this video and you will see where they got most of it from - ruclips.net/video/dzl4_ytmxDs/видео.html
I’m lonely anyone out there we both need to act out in Scottsdale Arizona?
That small dig at Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull was hilarious 😂
What about all of those adventure films with Errol Flynn?
Yes, they should have been there.
And Tyrone Power, Jr. was in the first film. He was one of the suited Nazi agents that tailed Jones throughout the film and near the end was one of the two that were escorting Marion in the march through that canyon. Spielberg had to have been giving his dad a nod to feature his son so prominently throughout the movie.
“I prefer the Austrian way”. Oh I bet you do!!
I love to draw on a good pencil
The rock had its moments I love.
