Want to know what I think of the fourth film in the series (The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull)? 🤔 My reaction is now available over on Patreon, both the one week early access to the RUclips edit, plus the FULL REACTION: www.patreon.com/DawnMarieAnderson
The young Indiana Jones chronicles tv show is v good tv too. If you looking for more Indiana Jones. And the girls loved him too. I wouldn't know about that though.
I love how "Only the penitent man will pass" means you have to kneel. But the a-holes who made that trap also have a giant saw blade come up from the floor to cut that penitent man in half. So the quote should be "Only the penitent ninja with Jedi reflexes who can dodge-roll from his knees will pass."
I read somewhere that the first blade would be for those who don’t believe in God and wouldn’t kneel while the second is for those who believe in the Islamic faith because in that tradition they lay their heads to the floor when praying. The two blades ensure that only one who truly kneels (or Indy who ducks and rolls 😂) is able to pass.
@@flywithdavy That's an interesting theory. I like it. If that were true, then Indy could have merely knelt and all the blades would miss him. So maybe he dove forward to avoid that floor blade when he didn't need to. Or maybe he ducked in the wrong place. But it is an interesting idea.
@@flywithdavySimilarly, I had heard that the second blade is avoided as you throw yourself at the foot of God (as some would do to show their complete humility). Just saw this recently, and for the life of me I can't recall where. Oh wait, yes! It was a video doing a breakdown of _The Last Crusade_ from the channel *The Deep Dive,* just 6 days ago. They explained it a little better than I did, but that's the gist.
Dawn, Airship travel was quite popular. The Hindenburg disaster in 1937 put a big dent in trust in airships. My father (who would have been 100 this year) was 13 at the time of the Hindenburg fire. He lived in Philly, about 60 miles from the crash site. He and his father heard the news over the radio of the Hindenburg fire. They got in his fathers car and drove to Lakehurst to see the aftermath. I don't remember if they went that evening or the next day. They were able to see all the debris of the burnt airship. I was always fascinated that he was able to see one of the most well known disasters of the time period.
The Hindenburg was due to America's stranglehold on helium. Germany had to use hydrogen for their zeppelins since sufficient quantities of helium were unavailable.
I think a dirigible has a solid frame and a blimp is just a large balloon. In the early 1900’s dirigibles were the first passenger airships out there and they were a very grand way to get around. They were starting to lose out to fixed wing aircraft because the planes were faster and could go anywhere without being dependent on the wind. The dirigible could carry more passengers and freight but after the Hindenburg crash people lost confidence in dirigible traffic. The military used them for a while and I think the navy still has a couple that they use occasionally. The most famous lighter than air ships now are the Goodyear blimps that are used for aerial shots of events now. I’ve seen one close while flying and they are really neat to watch.
I really enjoy Henry bumbling his way through the plot (and Marcus being completely useless 🤣). Sean Connery is very funny with his disapproving looks and bewilderment at his son's violent tendencies.
I remember when it first came out, he was still very much James Bond to me. So it was bizarre watching him in this almost comedic role. Absolutely loved it and it was just a real treat to see 007 be completely, adorably inept.
Raiders is still my favorite in the Indiana Jones franchise but this one is the most entertaining. R.I.P. River Phoenix, Sean Connery and Denholm Elliot
"Bloody Hell! I just realized I'm dancin along with the Nazis!" All the times I have watched reactions to this movie thats the first time I've had something to laugh at in that scene! Great reaction Dawn!
For the curious, I just googled "the music during the hitler scene in last crusade". The answer apparently is "Königgrätzer Marsch" by Johann Gottfried Piefke, written 1866, performed in an arrangement by Alexander "original Star Trek theme" Courage. This march is still popular, often performed by military bands in Germany, and also used by the armed forces of Chile and Jamaica.
A thought occurred to me about that train. How would those giraffes cope with a bridge? Or a tunnel? Or even a water tower filling hose thing (such as the one young Indy swung around on)?
@@Deegee_1969 Good question, but there must've been a lot fewer bridges and tunnels in 1912 in Utah, so maybe there were routes without either that trains like that could use (if there were even trains like that; the giraffes could've also just been a gag for the movie).
Young Indy accidentally lashing his chin with the whip is meant to account for a real scar on Harrison Ford's chin, which was left from a car accident.
George Lucas was good at those sorts of cover-ups. He used the Wampa attack in Empire Strikes Back to account for Mark Hamill's new facial scarring (also from a car crash)
Important to note: Indy and his dad aren’t immortal now. The immortality effects of the grail stop when you pass the seal in the temple. “That is the boundary and the price of immortality.” Maybe continued drinking is required. It’s not entirely clear. In the novelization the knight explains he aged a year for every day he didn’t drink, so that’s why he’s older, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he stopped being immortal when not drinking, he just lost youth
Well, the grail can’t pass the Great Seal but they can and they would be immortal IF they returned every day to keep drinking from the grail. Aside from Henry’s wounds being healed, they each got one free ageless day.
@@nrrork yeah basically the movie is saying that the legend of the grail and everlasting life was misunderstood and idealized by greedy men. The actual mundane purpose was to become the new guardian of the grail, immortal and ever watchful until the next worthy guardian came and relieved you.
One thing I didn't catch back in 1989 when I saw this back then, was as soon as Indy drank from the grail, his "rug burn" or "tank tread burn" on his left cheek disappeared as well as his bloody cut lip. So it "healed" his current wounds as well.
So to explain the dog thing, George Lucas wrote the original script for Raiders of the Lost Ark at the same time he was writing a little independent film called Star Wars. During that time, he owned an Alaskan Malamute as a pet. They’re truly massive dogs, they look like domesticated wolves, and his would sit in the passenger seat of his pickup truck, serving as his honorary co-pilot. The dog was named Indiana, which lent his name to Indiana Smith (later changed to Jones at Steven Spielberg’s suggestion) and was the basis for the character Chewbacca in Star Wars. If you watch the movie again, you can see the Jones’ own a similar dog when Indy comes home to show his father the Cross of Coronado.
cru·sade noun 1. each of a series of medieval military expeditions made by Europeans to the Holy Land in the 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries. "the fanaticism engendered by the Crusades" 2. a vigorous campaign for political, social, or religious change. "a crusade against crime"
Airship travel across the Atlantic began in 1930 on board the "Graf Zeppelin" from Germany to Brazil. The trip from Germany to Rio de Janeiro took about four and a half days. The larger "Hindenburg" started making crossings in 1936 from Frankfurt to New Jersey. It was very expensive but significantly more comfortable (though slower) than being packed into a tube like today's jet aircraft. Passengers had cabins and there were restaurants and lounges. It took about a day less than traveling by sea and no seasickness. This pretty much ended in May, 1937 when the Hindenburg exploded over New Jersey during bad weather. Of the 97 passengers and crew on board, 62 survived.
Interesting facts - Young Indy is Joaquin Phoenix's brother River. He died just a few years after making this movie. -- Sean Connery was only 12 years older than Harrison Ford. - Yes that's Gimli
Also in regards to the age differences Sean Connery and Harrison Ford The 12 year age difference was a big part of why Sean Connery initially turned down the role of Indy's father
@@Osprey850 The scenario you just proposed is EXACTLY what I hope and pray for. As an American with Russian heritage, I'd take Dawn over Trump and Putin any day - hands down. How cool would it be to hear that laugh in a debate or State of the Union address? She would definitely have my vote!
These reactions are great for these, because it's fun to remember just how GOOD a great movie can be. This trilogy... it just stands in it's own class.
German marching tunes are very fun and the very same tunes are used to this day, because they predate the Nazis. The Nazis barrowed a lot of stuff. The CRUSADES were commissioned by both King's and Popes and they were military campaigns to seize control of those places related to the New Testament, especially Jerusalem. Their secondary mission was to recover Christian artifacts, like the holy grail, which is the cup used during the last supper, when everyone drank from it in the first ever communion or rites of remembrance. Jones chose the only wooden cup, because Christ was a son of a carpenter and would be taught carpentry prior to Him preaching and teaching.
@@oaktree1628 The last line is a Frozen joke. Elsa was the name of the lead character of the film and sang the song "Let it Go" that invaded the airwaves for months after. This girl's name was Elsa, and she couldn't let the grail go.
USA uses a wider age range for Scouts 10-18 I don't think the USA has Beavers as Cubs starts at the same age. Yes it is Gimli, he also voiced Treebeard and he was in the first Indy movie. "Asps... very dangerous. You go first."
In Greek, Jehovah started with an I, because there was no symbol of J back then. Like the letters INRI inscribed on Jesus' cross stood for Jesus Nazaremus Rex Judaeorum. (I'm not sure about the spelling), which meant Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews.
the guy who played the younger version of indy was river phoenix the brother of joaquin phoenix who played commudus in gladiator and the joker in joker
I saw this in the theatre when i was 13 with my then girlfriend, Laura. This was our first official and only date (shy and in Junior high)! I'm certain we'll always remember each other from our hundreds of phone conversations, our interactions in school, and this piece of classic cinema! Laura, you were always cool!
33:41 You've got to love Indy's whole attitude in this shot. It's like he's thinking, "What's everyone lookin' at? Are we just admiring the view? I mean it _is_ a very nice view. Is that it?"
Before WWII the Germans had regular Zeppellin flights on two major airships. This pretty much came to an end when the Hindenburg exploded over New Jersey due to an explosion of the hydrogen gas they used for lift. Ironically, there was a representative from the airship company on board specifically travelling to the US to try to get access to non explosive Helium gas to replace the hydrogen. At the time the US had a near monopoly on production of helium and had used it in the airships the US Navy was experimenting with at the same time. As for the airplane slung beneath the German airship in the movie, the Germans never did that. However, the US Navy did...and actually had plans to build airships that could hold small fighter planes...sort of a flying aircraft carrier. It might seem bizarre, but it was being done.
Great reaction, Dawn. This one is definitely my favourite. They really hit the mark with this one. And Jesus was a carpenter so a wooden and only slightly elaborate cup (compared to the extravagant one that Donovan drank from or rather that Elsa tricked Donovan into drinking from) was the right answer. 9:31 Oh, I'm sure boys who like girls would also struggle :) Also, "she talks in her sleep" gets me every single time. :D 21:58 yes, that is Michael Byrne who was indeed in Braveheart. 30:00 Yes, that is John Rhys-Davies, aka Gimli, son of Glóin.
Where did Indy learn to fight? Well, partly in the Belgian army during WWI. Surprise! There's also an Indiana Jones TV series (and I LOVED it!) from the 90's, following Indy as a child and a teen/young man. Harrison Ford even shows up in one episode as a middle-aged Indy! So, there's LOTS more Indy for you to enjoy!!
I love the first one, but the onscreen chemistry between Sean Connery and Harrison Ford really elevates 3 to the top of the list. I know I saw 4, but I just cannot even remember it. PS: Yes, that's Gimli.
31:53 probably the reason why it wouldn't just shoot the rock out, is the projectile detonates; if the cannon fired a simple slug, like old sailing ships firing cannonballs, it would just clear the barrel. But since the late 1800's or so, when they switched to having explosive ordnance, instead of pushing only it would set off the projectile and backfire.
Wonderful reaction. This is a fun movie and an end to the trilogy for most fans. Young Indy is played by a talented actor, the late River Phoenix. Watch the little mannerisms he puts into the young Indy that perfectly mirror Harrison Ford's style. You can learn more about Indy as a young man with a series than ran shortly and gives us some background on the character during the First World War.
Ok, I get the magic box at the beginning, why did the train car have a false floor? I'm pretty sure they wouldn't perform that trick in a cluttered train caboose.
Great reaction as usual DM! At 19:40 The Marx Brothers joke was probably just a jab...but...In 1933, following U.S. diplomatic recognition of the Soviet Union, Harpo spent six weeks in Moscow as a performer and goodwill ambassador. During this time he served as a secret courier, delivering communiques to and from the US embassy in Moscow. At the request of Ambassador William Christian Bullitt Jr, Harpo smuggled the messages in and out of the Soviet Union by taping a sealed envelope to his leg beneath his trousers. I'm so glad you were brave and fell in love with the Marx Brothers. That's how I found your channel and why I subscribed. You Rock!! And again, great review of Last Crusade.
Indy knew it was that one because of what he said: "That's the cup of a carpenter." Jesus, despite being the "king of kings", lived a humble existence. He didn't have wealth or opulence. This one is also my favorite in the franchise, with the original coming a close second.
Fun fact: One of the original plot elements was that the guy who gives Indy his signature hat, was originally gonna be Abner Ravenwood, Marion's father
If that were true, which is could be, it's worth reminding yourself that at this point, Marion Ravenwood is three years old. Yes, it DOES get squicky when you run the numbers.
@@spinblack0 the time frame and the reason for the hostility of Marion in the first movie makes sense, alas it still wasn't confirmed for it to be true, I would be amazed if it was part of the lore
@@spinblack0 I'm guessing Indy was a college student working for Abner, who had a 16ish... daughter named Marion. That would make Indy 4 to 8 years older than Marion.
Dawn, the title is a reference to The Crusades, the series of wars fought from the 11th to 13th centuries between Christians and Muslims for control of the Holy Land (Jerusalem and surrounding areas). The knight at the end of the movie is from one of those Crusades, having being kept alive by the grail for 700 years. I'm just not sure if the movie title is a reference to the last of the historical Crusades or if it means that the plot of the movie is a new Crusade of sorts, since it's about two sides fighting over a holy relic.
Yeah Dawn, John Rhys-Davies played Gimli in LOTR, and also Sallah here!! It´s funny because he played Gimli as a dwarf, and it´s tallest than Aragorn or Legolas in real life.
"I should have mailed it to the Marx Bros" And you can fully appreciate that joke, having seen their movies! Honestly the diary probably would've been safest with them.
I feel better when Dawn Marie laughs. I think I'll grab all her laughs and make some app, where it randomly goes off, so I always have a great day. I think she'd let me.
Dawn’s laugh at the Marx Brothers joke was fabulous, and she still hasn’t seen Animal Crackers. I now wonder how many people saw the movie when it was released and had never seen a Marx Brothers movie.
Yes, me, but I was 9 or 10 when Last Crusade was released, but didn't see it until 1991 on VHS. We got all the tapes from Burger King. I noticed the Marx Bros reference back then. Then one day at Applebee's I saw a vintage movie poster for a Marx Bros film and had to ask if that's who Sean Connery was talking about. I saw my first Marx Bros film I think in 1995. Taped it off AMC, "A Night In Casablanca". Watched that so many times, maybe as much or more than "Last Crusade". And that, friends, is how we fly across the ocean.
There was a TV show of Young Indiana Jones that was aired a few years after this movie came out(1992) and it included a slightly older Jones with a beard, also played by Harrison Ford. It's a super common misconception that this film was supposed to be the last movie in the series and while , yes it was for director Steven Spielberg, planning for Indiana 4 started 3 years after the release of this film. Around the same time the Show was on TV and the earliest Indie 4 scripts all included a ton of the set pieces in the final movie. Which is pretty cool.
Indy learned how to fight because between 1912, when the first scenes take place and 1938 when he ends up on the ship, he fought with the Belgian Army during WWI, spent time in a German POW camp, escaped, met Lawrence of Arabia later in WW1, worked as a part time spy in Russia during the Revolution and served as an officer in the Belgian Army in the Congo. Between the Boy Scouts and the Indy we all know and love, he served in several theatres of WWI, in the trenches and the desert and Africa and in the Russian Revolution. That's pretty much a Ph.D course in "How to Fight." And he met a lot of girls...which is a related but slightly different course of study.
Yes, thats Gimli. But why didnt you recognize him in the first film? Yes, zeppelins were a mode of travel...until the Hindenberg. Hopefully thats still taught in your schools. If not, theres also a movie about that.
3:30 "That thing looks like it's away to fall off and crush everyone..." yeah, it's quite a sight. That segment was filmed in Arches National Park,Utah. It is mind-blowingly spectacular scenery. not just Balanced Rock. Going there plus other parks, Bryce, Canyonlands, Zion, Grand Canyon etc is the best holiday I ever had. It beat Skegness hands down 😀
What you said at the beginning about "just because something's written down doesn't make it true" is really quite astute especially when dealing with medieval manuscripts. Medieval writers tended to prioritise telling a good story with a cohesive narrative over historical accuracy, in fact the whole concept of "historical accuracy" might be a relatively modern concept. A good example of this would be Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia regum Britanniae or History of the kings of Britain which is where we get a lot of legends of King Arthur. Geoffrey pulled together a lot of old myths and legends, added to them by generally making crap up, to create cohesive narrative and presented it as "history"
It's funny you say that, I was just reading something about that yesterday. King Arthur was completely left out of some writings, which threw doubts into whether he really existed at all for some time.
I remember studying the history of sacred relics in medieval monasteries, and being appalled at the widespread dishonesty. Monasteries were always conveniently "discovering" some weird thing in their archives (Mary's breast milk probably being the weirdest one), when they wanted to make some money (from the hordes of pilgrims who would travel to see relics). They would also discover "ancient" documents declaring that land near the monastery actually belonged to them, and snatch territory that way.
@@stupidsmart-phone6911 You see that a lot with Pseudo historical figures like say Arthur yeah, and like Robin Hood to where the truth is that they're most likely a patchwork character stitched together from many different folk tales that weren't necessarily about single individuals but many different heroic figures.
26:29 Actually the zeppelin was a very common means of transoceanic transportation. The zeppelin dock in NYC was at the top of the Empire State Building.
Yes, that's Gimli. Also known as John Rhys-Davies. He also did the voice of Treebeard in the Lord of the Rings. He also plays Sallah in this movie and in Raiders of the Lost Ark. He's also in the cast list for the next Indiana Jones movie coming soon: Dial of Destiny.
The largest blimp was the Hindenburg, you may have heard of it. It had a crew of 40-61, and up to 70 passengers, although there was a flight with 72 passengers? That cup was made out of wood, although it's tricky with the lighting that makes it look golden colored like all the rest.
people regularly travelled in blimps during that time period. but the hindenburg disaster (when one of them caught fire and killed everyone on it) caused companies to no longer use blimps, so they switched to passenger airplanes instead.
Best of the IJ series! I always like to think of this as Sean Connery's last role & the one I like to remember him by. Clearly having fun not being the macho, 007, dominant, alpha lady's man, but a lovable, nerdy, kindly old grandpa slightly bewildered at the events around him and being taken care of by his son. What a way for the actor & the legend to poke a little fun & play against type toward the end of an amazing career! 💙💯✌️👍💥
20:32 Fun Fact for you, Dawn: In bit of a throwback to his tenure as James Bond, Sean Connery ad-libbed the line "She Talks In Her Sleep" in response to Indy's question about how he knew that Elsa was a Nazi
The TV series, "The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles", offers a brief glimpse of Indiana, the dog. Personally, I enjoyed the TV series more than I enjoyed "The Crystal Skull" (by far). Even enjoyed it more than most of "Temple of Doom". It's a mixed bag - many styles, many genres, two actors (one playing a younger Indy, one playing a teen-Indy not long after the Young Indy segment here), but the writing and directing is excellent, and the episodes were shot on location around the world.
The series was fun (and also educational), but I didn't like them contradicting this movie. The younger Indy in the series already has a fear of snakes, this one doesn't.
The reason why the Grail wasn't super glitzy is because Christ was not that type of person. He and his father were carpenters and so it wouldn't be a huge gilded super-ornate goblet sort of thing. He was more humble yet perfectly confident about his message and mission for the world.
And it would’ve simply been a cup that he used at one point, and no formal, royal thing. Indy looked at it logically, while Donovan was too wrapped up in his greed and pride. It just had to be a special, shiny, magical artifact in his mind.
just want to say great call on the antagonist German and seeing that he was also in Braveheart. I've watched a few reaction vids to this movie and no one else pointed it out.
There you see the perfect ending for the Indian Jones trilogy with Indy, his dad and friends riding off into the sunset. That's where it should have stayed. Don't expect the others to come up to this level of entertaining.
Actually it isn't a trilogy. A trilogy is three chapters that tell an overall story like the Star Wars trilogies. These are separate stories that are unconnected. Besides, there is a fourth and now a fifth. You may not like them but they exist.
I like that they showed how Indy got the scar on his chin. In real life, Harrison Ford got the scar when his chin hit the steering wheel of a car he was driving when it crashed. I recall Harrison saying that in an interview. The sunset shot was shot on a really big ranch in Texas. It was one of the few places in the world that the land was completely unobstructed by anything.
12:56 Despite the attempt at a German/Austrian accent, Alison Doody is Irish. She had a small part in “A View to a Kill,” and she was in a movie with Pierce Brosnan shot in Ireland called “Taffin.” 24:21 The father grins here because Indy sets himself up like a knight jousting. So the technical term is, “He’s going to lance you.” 35:39 “Jehovah” is the Christian interpretation of the Hebrew YHWH (the “Tetragrammaton”).
The vehicle they ride in to get out of Germany is almost certainly a rigid airship known as a Zeppelin. It's _not_ a blimp. Blimps lack internal structure to keep their envelope rigid and as a consequence are limited in size (but even they can have people on-board). Airships (also called "dirigible [i.e. steerable] balloons") are quite viable and need much less power to stay in the air. Indeed, they were used for a couple of decades for passenger transport. However, a large amount of lighter-than-air gas is required, hence the huge balloon needed for a relatively small gondola and small number of passengers (usually fewer than 100, often in the low 10s), which was a contributing factor to their eventually falling out of use for passenger transport. The final blow was the Hindenburg disaster, where an airship caught fire and was destroyed, largely due to the use of hydrogen gas combined with the flammable skin. 16:58 The word is "cruciform". It means, "in the shape of a cross". Which is interesting if you think about it: pretty much any straight sword with a crossguard is already more or less in the shape of a cross. Maybe it's more about proportions, though. Also, "penitent" just means "feeling regret or remorse", usually in the context of sin.

A thought occurred to me about that train. How would those giraffes cope with a bridge? Or a tunnel? Or even a water tower filling hose thing (such as the one young Indy swung around on)?
@@Deegee_1969 Good question, but there must've been a lot fewer bridges and tunnels in 1912 in Utah, so maybe there were routes without either that trains like that could use (if there were even trains like that; the giraffes could've also just been a gag for the movie).
@@Deegee_1969 i like to think they know to duck, like I used to in the car going under a bridge lol
As it seemed to be a special circus train, they would probably be aware of the risks and take care at the low underpasses.
And people think nuking the fridge was impossible to suspend disbelief for. Developing a whole persona in minutes is apparently totally ok.
Dawn Marie's joy and laughter reacting to The Last Crusade, was awesome to see and hear.
Young Indy accidentally lashing his chin with the whip is meant to account for a real scar on Harrison Ford's chin, which was left from a car accident.
How observant
George Lucas was good at those sorts of cover-ups.
He used the Wampa attack in Empire Strikes Back to account for Mark Hamill's new facial scarring (also from a car crash)
Important to note: Indy and his dad aren’t immortal now. The immortality effects of the grail stop when you pass the seal in the temple. “That is the boundary and the price of immortality.”
Maybe continued drinking is required. It’s not entirely clear. In the novelization the knight explains he aged a year for every day he didn’t drink, so that’s why he’s older, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he stopped being immortal when not drinking, he just lost youth
Well, the grail can’t pass the Great Seal but they can and they would be immortal IF they returned every day to keep drinking from the grail. Aside from Henry’s wounds being healed, they each got one free ageless day.
@@surlycanadian So you'd have to live nearby and spend every day going to and from the place.
Sounds like a pretty shitty way to spend eternity.
@@nrrork yeah basically the movie is saying that the legend of the grail and everlasting life was misunderstood and idealized by greedy men. The actual mundane purpose was to become the new guardian of the grail, immortal and ever watchful until the next worthy guardian came and relieved you.
One thing I didn't catch back in 1989 when I saw this back then, was as soon as Indy drank from the grail, his "rug burn" or "tank tread burn" on his left cheek disappeared as well as his bloody cut lip. So it "healed" his current wounds as well.
Yeah, but in my mind, the lingering effects are still how he survived the fridge scene.
The really fun part about the names is that George Lucas's dog was named Indiana. It's where George got the name for the character in the first place.
Yep! Indiana the dog was the inspiration for both Indiana Jone and Chewbacca. Quite an important dog in the history of movies! lol.
@@dawbaccaCertainly glad he didn't name *Chewbacca* _"Indiana."_
So to explain the dog thing, George Lucas wrote the original script for Raiders of the Lost Ark at the same time he was writing a little independent film called Star Wars. During that time, he owned an Alaskan Malamute as a pet. They’re truly massive dogs, they look like domesticated wolves, and his would sit in the passenger seat of his pickup truck, serving as his honorary co-pilot. The dog was named Indiana, which lent his name to Indiana Smith (later changed to Jones at Steven Spielberg’s suggestion) and was the basis for the character Chewbacca in Star Wars. If you watch the movie again, you can see the Jones’ own a similar dog when Indy comes home to show his father the Cross of Coronado.
24:01 “You should have waited until they went, dumbass!” I’ve been yelling that at the TV since 1989 whenever I watch this movie.
"Oh bloody hell. I just realized I'm dancin' along to the Nazis." 🤣

Airship travel across the Atlantic began in 1930 on board the "Graf Zeppelin" from Germany to Brazil. The trip from Germany to Rio de Janeiro took about four and a half days. The larger "Hindenburg" started making crossings in 1936 from Frankfurt to New Jersey. It was very expensive but significantly more comfortable (though slower) than being packed into a tube like today's jet aircraft. Passengers had cabins and there were restaurants and lounges. It took about a day less than traveling by sea and no seasickness. This pretty much ended in May, 1937 when the Hindenburg exploded over New Jersey during bad weather. Of the 97 passengers and crew on board, 62 survived.
Interesting facts - Young Indy is Joaquin Phoenix's brother River. He died just a few years after making this movie. -- Sean Connery was only 12 years older than Harrison Ford. - Yes that's Gimli
Also in regards to the age differences Sean Connery and Harrison Ford
The 12 year age difference was a big part of why Sean Connery initially turned down the role of Indy's father
Harrison Ford joked that Sean was only 12 years older so he couldn't be his Dad. Then thought about it and said. Well with Sean...maybe it's possible.
The "No Ticket" at 26:44 was recreated later in the film DOGMA where Silent Bob speaks for the only time on the train.
Dawn, your slightly sinister laugh is pure joy to hear, and it brings joy - I can only assume - to a great many of us.
That sinister laugh won't bring joy when she becomes... President of the world!😆
@@Osprey850 The scenario you just proposed is EXACTLY what I hope and pray for. As an American with Russian heritage, I'd take Dawn over Trump and Putin any day - hands down. How cool would it be to hear that laugh in a debate or State of the Union address? She would definitely have my vote!
This movie was a huge step up from Temple of Doom. Just loads of fun. But the first film will always be my favorite.
These reactions are great for these, because it's fun to remember just how GOOD a great movie can be. This trilogy... it just stands in it's own class.
German marching tunes are very fun and the very same tunes are used to this day, because they predate the Nazis. The Nazis barrowed a lot of stuff.
The CRUSADES were commissioned by both King's and Popes and they were military campaigns to seize control of those places related to the New Testament, especially Jerusalem. Their secondary mission was to recover Christian artifacts, like the holy grail, which is the cup used during the last supper, when everyone drank from it in the first ever communion or rites of remembrance.
Jones chose the only wooden cup, because Christ was a son of a carpenter and would be taught carpentry prior to Him preaching and teaching.
I've seen this so many times, i can watch on mute and still hear all the lines and musical ques.
Also, Elsa couldn't... Let It Go.

Bravo - you win the internet for today
I don’t get the groaning….
@@oaktree1628 The last line is a Frozen joke. Elsa was the name of the lead character of the film and sang the song "Let it Go" that invaded the airwaves for months after. This girl's name was Elsa, and she couldn't let the grail go.
That was a good call identifying John Rhys Davies as the actor that plays Gimli. Not many actually pick up on that.
Also……beaver scouts😂
I know, beaver scouts just killed me 😂
USA uses a wider age range for Scouts 10-18 I don't think the USA has Beavers as Cubs starts at the same age. Yes it is Gimli, he also voiced Treebeard and he was in the first Indy movie. "Asps... very dangerous. You go first."
The first thing I remember seeing him in was the TV miniseries "Shogun". He was great as a secondary character in that one.
Your laugh is so infectious, glad you liked it
In Greek, Jehovah started with an I, because there was no symbol of J back then. Like the letters INRI inscribed on Jesus' cross stood for Jesus Nazaremus Rex Judaeorum. (I'm not sure about the spelling), which meant Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews.
the guy who played the younger version of indy was river phoenix the brother of joaquin phoenix who played commudus in gladiator and the joker in joker
I saw this in the theatre when i was 13 with my then girlfriend, Laura. This was our first official and only date (shy and in Junior high)! I'm certain we'll always remember each other from our hundreds of phone conversations, our interactions in school, and this piece of classic cinema! Laura, you were always cool!
33:41 You've got to love Indy's whole attitude in this shot. It's like he's thinking, "What's everyone lookin' at? Are we just admiring the view? I mean it _is_ a very nice view. Is that it?"
Jesus was a carpenter before he started his ministry
Dawn Marie your laughter on every movie is infectious I love it

Before WWII the Germans had regular Zeppellin flights on two major airships. This pretty much came to an end when the Hindenburg exploded over New Jersey due to an explosion of the hydrogen gas they used for lift. Ironically, there was a representative from the airship company on board specifically travelling to the US to try to get access to non explosive Helium gas to replace the hydrogen. At the time the US had a near monopoly on production of helium and had used it in the airships the US Navy was experimenting with at the same time. As for the airplane slung beneath the German airship in the movie, the Germans never did that. However, the US Navy did...and actually had plans to build airships that could hold small fighter planes...sort of a flying aircraft carrier. It might seem bizarre, but it was being done.
Great reaction, Dawn. This one is definitely my favourite. They really hit the mark with this one. And Jesus was a carpenter so a wooden and only slightly elaborate cup (compared to the extravagant one that Donovan drank from or rather that Elsa tricked Donovan into drinking from) was the right answer.
9:31 Oh, I'm sure boys who like girls would also struggle :)
Also, "she talks in her sleep" gets me every single time. :D
21:58 yes, that is Michael Byrne who was indeed in Braveheart.
30:00 Yes, that is John Rhys-Davies, aka Gimli, son of Glóin.
It's hard to tell, but I think the cup was actually ceramic.
@@ThreadBombAgreed. It's not wood, but a form of clay, as many were in that time. ⚱️
Where did Indy learn to fight? Well, partly in the Belgian army during WWI.
Surprise! There's also an Indiana Jones TV series (and I LOVED it!) from the 90's, following Indy as a child and a teen/young man. Harrison Ford even shows up in one episode as a middle-aged Indy!
So, there's LOTS more Indy for you to enjoy!!
I love the first one, but the onscreen chemistry between Sean Connery and Harrison Ford really elevates 3 to the top of the list. I know I saw 4, but I just cannot even remember it. PS: Yes, that's Gimli.
31:53 probably the reason why it wouldn't just shoot the rock out, is the projectile detonates; if the cannon fired a simple slug, like old sailing ships firing cannonballs, it would just clear the barrel. But since the late 1800's or so, when they switched to having explosive ordnance, instead of pushing only it would set off the projectile and backfire.
Wonderful reaction. This is a fun movie and an end to the trilogy for most fans. Young Indy is played by a talented actor, the late River Phoenix. Watch the little mannerisms he puts into the young Indy that perfectly mirror Harrison Ford's style. You can learn more about Indy as a young man with a series than ran shortly and gives us some background on the character during the First World War.
The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (later re-edited into a series of TV movies called The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones).
Also, the whip accident that cut his chin matches the scar that Harrison Ford has as a result of a car accident in his youth i believe.
Ok, I get the magic box at the beginning, why did the train car have a false floor? I'm pretty sure they wouldn't perform that trick in a cluttered train caboose.
Great reaction as usual DM! At 19:40 The Marx Brothers joke was probably just a jab...but...In 1933, following U.S. diplomatic recognition of the Soviet Union, Harpo spent six weeks in Moscow as a performer and goodwill ambassador. During this time he served as a secret courier, delivering communiques to and from the US embassy in Moscow. At the request of Ambassador William Christian Bullitt Jr, Harpo smuggled the messages in and out of the Soviet Union by taping a sealed envelope to his leg beneath his trousers.
I'm so glad you were brave and fell in love with the Marx Brothers. That's how I found your channel and why I subscribed. You Rock!! And again, great review of Last Crusade.
Indy knew it was that one because of what he said: "That's the cup of a carpenter." Jesus, despite being the "king of kings", lived a humble existence. He didn't have wealth or opulence.
This one is also my favorite in the franchise, with the original coming a close second.
From carpenter to fisherman to messianic figure. Quite the career changes.
Fun fact: One of the original plot elements was that the guy who gives Indy his signature hat, was originally gonna be Abner Ravenwood, Marion's father
If that were true, which is could be, it's worth reminding yourself that at this point, Marion Ravenwood is three years old.
Yes, it DOES get squicky when you run the numbers.
She full-on says in raiders of the Lost ark that she was a child
@@spinblack0 the time frame and the reason for the hostility of Marion in the first movie makes sense, alas it still wasn't confirmed for it to be true, I would be amazed if it was part of the lore
@@spinblack0 I'm guessing Indy was a college student working for Abner, who had a 16ish... daughter named Marion. That would make Indy 4 to 8 years older than Marion.
Yeah I'm not saying it like he was like some pervert I'm just saying the age gap. Pretty common in the last 100,000 years
So glad you recognized Gimli.
Dawn, the title is a reference to The Crusades, the series of wars fought from the 11th to 13th centuries between Christians and Muslims for control of the Holy Land (Jerusalem and surrounding areas). The knight at the end of the movie is from one of those Crusades, having being kept alive by the grail for 700 years. I'm just not sure if the movie title is a reference to the last of the historical Crusades or if it means that the plot of the movie is a new Crusade of sorts, since it's about two sides fighting over a holy relic.
Yeah Dawn, John Rhys-Davies played Gimli in LOTR, and also Sallah here!! It´s funny because he played Gimli as a dwarf, and it´s tallest than Aragorn or Legolas in real life.
"I should have mailed it to the Marx Bros"
And you can fully appreciate that joke, having seen their movies! Honestly the diary probably would've been safest with them.
If you define "safe" to include being chewed and eaten by Harpo.
One of most famous blimps still flying today for trips is The Good Year Blimp .
Sean Connery vs Harrison Ford have such hillarious chemistry together.
I feel better when Dawn Marie laughs. I think I'll grab all her laughs and make some app, where it randomly goes off, so I always have a great day. I think she'd let me.
Dawn’s laugh at the Marx Brothers joke was fabulous, and she still hasn’t seen Animal Crackers. I now wonder how many people saw the movie when it was released and had never seen a Marx Brothers movie.
Yes, me, but I was 9 or 10 when Last Crusade was released, but didn't see it until 1991 on VHS. We got all the tapes from Burger King. I noticed the Marx Bros reference back then. Then one day at Applebee's I saw a vintage movie poster for a Marx Bros film and had to ask if that's who Sean Connery was talking about. I saw my first Marx Bros film I think in 1995. Taped it off AMC, "A Night In Casablanca". Watched that so many times, maybe as much or more than "Last Crusade". And that, friends, is how we fly across the ocean.
At the time Last Crusade came out, a lot more people were aware of the Marx brothers, even if they hadn't watched a movie.
Well, she does have the Marx Brothers figurines on the shelf behind her. So, I would assume that she is familiar with them.
I know she’s familiar. I was delighted by her knowing laughter.
43:07 Look up ‘Hindenburg disaster’ to find out how safe airships were.
There was a TV show of Young Indiana Jones that was aired a few years after this movie came out(1992) and it included a slightly older Jones with a beard, also played by Harrison Ford.
It's a super common misconception that this film was supposed to be the last movie in the series and while , yes it was for director Steven Spielberg, planning for Indiana 4 started 3 years after the release of this film. Around the same time the Show was on TV and the earliest Indie 4 scripts all included a ton of the set pieces in the final movie. Which is pretty cool.
Indy learned how to fight because between 1912, when the first scenes take place and 1938 when he ends up on the ship, he fought with the Belgian Army during WWI, spent time in a German POW camp, escaped, met Lawrence of Arabia later in WW1, worked as a part time spy in Russia during the Revolution and served as an officer in the Belgian Army in the Congo. Between the Boy Scouts and the Indy we all know and love, he served in several theatres of WWI, in the trenches and the desert and Africa and in the Russian Revolution. That's pretty much a Ph.D course in "How to Fight." And he met a lot of girls...which is a related but slightly different course of study.
Imagine if Indiana arrives in the crypt, the knight turns around and it's John Cleese in French medieval garb and he shouts "Allo..!!"
i wave my private parts at your auntie you english kniggets...............................
The Brotherhood of the Pussyform Sword sounds like a fun group.
Maybe.
But he actually said Cruciform Sword, which means sword shaped like a cross.
Only Sean Connery can steal the show from Harrison Ford
P.S. Rest in Peace River Phoenix
True and rest in peace Sean Connery 🙏
That is Gimli. And he is actually the tallest out of the fellowship.
Hitting himself with the whip explains the scar on Harrison Ford's chin (which is the result of an accident he had early in life).
It such a delight watching you watch movies we love. This was my favorite of the franchise. Sean Connery was perfection.
Yes, thats Gimli. But why didnt you recognize him in the first film?
Yes, zeppelins were a mode of travel...until the Hindenberg. Hopefully thats still taught in your schools. If not, theres also a movie about that.
How's she going to remember that? She watched that film over a week ago.
A blimp and a zeppelin are two very very different things. Just saying.
@@Madagon367 True
3:30 "That thing looks like it's away to fall off and crush everyone..." yeah, it's quite a sight. That segment was filmed in Arches National Park,Utah. It is mind-blowingly spectacular scenery. not just Balanced Rock. Going there plus other parks, Bryce, Canyonlands, Zion, Grand Canyon etc is the best holiday I ever had. It beat Skegness hands down 😀
What you said at the beginning about "just because something's written down doesn't make it true" is really quite astute especially when dealing with medieval manuscripts. Medieval writers tended to prioritise telling a good story with a cohesive narrative over historical accuracy, in fact the whole concept of "historical accuracy" might be a relatively modern concept. A good example of this would be Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia regum Britanniae or History of the kings of Britain which is where we get a lot of legends of King Arthur. Geoffrey pulled together a lot of old myths and legends, added to them by generally making crap up, to create cohesive narrative and presented it as "history"
It's funny you say that, I was just reading something about that yesterday. King Arthur was completely left out of some writings, which threw doubts into whether he really existed at all for some time.
I remember studying the history of sacred relics in medieval monasteries, and being appalled at the widespread dishonesty. Monasteries were always conveniently "discovering" some weird thing in their archives (Mary's breast milk probably being the weirdest one), when they wanted to make some money (from the hordes of pilgrims who would travel to see relics). They would also discover "ancient" documents declaring that land near the monastery actually belonged to them, and snatch territory that way.
@@ThreadBomb Omg yeah, and if you put all the splinters from the holy cross together you'd probably have enough for several crucifixions lol.
@@stupidsmart-phone6911 You see that a lot with Pseudo historical figures like say Arthur yeah, and like Robin Hood to where the truth is that they're most likely a patchwork character stitched together from many different folk tales that weren't necessarily about single individuals but many different heroic figures.
26:29 Actually the zeppelin was a very common means of transoceanic transportation. The zeppelin dock in NYC was at the top of the Empire State Building.
I could never understand how they would get on and off of those things while moored to the top of the Empire State Building.
@@thrummer1953 Google "zeppelin empire state" and click Images. It's pretty interesting.

Also known as John Rhys-Davies.
He also did the voice of Treebeard in the Lord of the Rings.
He also plays Sallah in this movie and in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
He's also in the cast list for the next Indiana Jones movie coming soon: Dial of Destiny.
Also Professor Arturo in the show Sliders.
Hiding under the desk? That would have made it a very different film. 🤣
I've always enjoyed this one; probably my favourite of the Indy films.
Your preview mash-ups are so close to being their own little story... like a Dr. Seuss audiobook for adults (not in THAT way).
The largest blimp was the Hindenburg, you may have heard of it. It had a crew of 40-61, and up to 70 passengers, although there was a flight with 72 passengers?
That cup was made out of wood, although it's tricky with the lighting that makes it look golden colored like all the rest.
people regularly travelled in blimps during that time period. but the hindenburg disaster (when one of them caught fire and killed everyone on it) caused companies to no longer use blimps, so they switched to passenger airplanes instead.
The airship shown in the movie is a *dirigible,* rather than a blimp, because it has a rigid framework. A blimp is just a shaped balloon.
"I'd be hiding under his desk!"
Ehm, to do what exactly?...
Best of the IJ series! I always like to think of this as Sean Connery's last role & the one I like to remember him by. Clearly having fun not being the macho, 007, dominant, alpha lady's man, but a lovable, nerdy, kindly old grandpa slightly bewildered at the events around him and being taken care of by his son. What a way for the actor & the legend to poke a little fun & play against type toward the end of an amazing career! 💙💯✌️👍💥
20:32
Fun Fact for you, Dawn:
In bit of a throwback to his tenure as James Bond,
Sean Connery ad-libbed the line "She Talks In Her Sleep" in response to Indy's question about how he knew that Elsa was a Nazi
The TV series, "The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles", offers a brief glimpse of Indiana, the dog. Personally, I enjoyed the TV series more than I enjoyed "The Crystal Skull" (by far). Even enjoyed it more than most of "Temple of Doom". It's a mixed bag - many styles, many genres, two actors (one playing a younger Indy, one playing a teen-Indy not long after the Young Indy segment here), but the writing and directing is excellent, and the episodes were shot on location around the world.
I loved watching the Young Indy
Chronicles as a kid.
The series was fun (and also educational), but I didn't like them contradicting this movie. The younger Indy in the series already has a fear of snakes, this one doesn't.
38:11 Exactly, it's the cup of a carpenter. It's simple, unadorned, made of clay, made to drink from not to be awed at.
Yes carpenter.
Jesus was a carpenter like Joseph.
The simplest of the grails was the real one, made by Jesus himself.

It’s not hydrogen. It’s heliuuuuuum!
The reason why the Grail wasn't super glitzy is because Christ was not that type of person. He and his father were carpenters and so it wouldn't be a huge gilded super-ornate goblet sort of thing. He was more humble yet perfectly confident about his message and mission for the world.
And it would’ve simply been a cup that he used at one point, and no formal, royal thing. Indy looked at it logically, while Donovan was too wrapped up in his greed and pride. It just had to be a special, shiny, magical artifact in his mind.
Dawn, your enjoyment of this movie was absolutely delightful!

There you see the perfect ending for the Indian Jones trilogy with Indy, his dad and friends riding off into the sunset. That's where it should have stayed. Don't expect the others to come up to this level of entertaining.

I like that they showed how Indy got the scar on his chin. In real life, Harrison Ford got the scar when his chin hit the steering wheel of a car he was driving when it crashed. I recall Harrison saying that in an interview.
The sunset shot was shot on a really big ranch in Texas. It was one of the few places in the world that the land was completely unobstructed by anything.
12:56 Despite the attempt at a German/Austrian accent, Alison Doody is Irish. She had a small part in “A View to a Kill,” and she was in a movie with Pierce Brosnan shot in Ireland called “Taffin.”
24:21 The father grins here because Indy sets himself up like a knight jousting. So the technical term is, “He’s going to lance you.”
35:39 “Jehovah” is the Christian interpretation of the Hebrew YHWH (the “Tetragrammaton”).
"At least you can play games with the cups." 🤣 🤣 🤣
The vehicle they ride in to get out of Germany is almost certainly a rigid airship known as a Zeppelin. It's _not_ a blimp. Blimps lack internal structure to keep their envelope rigid and as a consequence are limited in size (but even they can have people on-board). Airships (also called "dirigible [i.e. steerable] balloons") are quite viable and need much less power to stay in the air. Indeed, they were used for a couple of decades for passenger transport. However, a large amount of lighter-than-air gas is required, hence the huge balloon needed for a relatively small gondola and small number of passengers (usually fewer than 100, often in the low 10s), which was a contributing factor to their eventually falling out of use for passenger transport. The final blow was the Hindenburg disaster, where an airship caught fire and was destroyed, largely due to the use of hydrogen gas combined with the flammable skin.
16:58 The word is "cruciform". It means, "in the shape of a cross". Which is interesting if you think about it: pretty much any straight sword with a crossguard is already more or less in the shape of a cross. Maybe it's more about proportions, though.
Also, "penitent" just means "feeling regret or remorse", usually in the context of sin.
