In reality it was unscripted. The bug landed on the actor while shooting and he decided that eating it fit the character the best; plus they would have had to restart the shot if he swatted it away.
dude, you seriously deserve a mark twain award and several emmys for your consistent high-quality content over the last few years! it's just as brilliant and funny as anything or anyone nominated for those awards.
I love the moment where Screenwriter Guy tells Producer Guy to shut up, looks at his script realizing he had a good point, and then just tells Producer Guy to shut up again. Sometimes you just need another person’s perspective to think, “Wow, how did I overlook that?” I appreciate the mixing up of the gags.
Actually of all the ridiculous things in the movie, that was the one that actually was explained by the script. Indy scours the floor and has his own notebook as reference because clearly what day of the year will determine where you put the staff so it will properly show the location of the well of souls. Everything else was totally absurd but that one was actually addressed.
That's one of my favorite gags too, like when producers guy asks a question and screenwriter guy just says, "I don't know." Literally the only person who would know would be screenwriter guy lolol
The biggest thing is that this whole adventure was completely unnecessary. The Ark was just going to melt Nazis. If anything they were saving Hitler. Also Indiana Jones didn't actually accomplishhis mission. The Nazis got the Ark. It just all worked out because failing his mission was the best thing to do. But he could have literally just done nothing. (Edit) OH cool he did address this a little at the end. I thought I was the only one. 'Thank goodness Indiana Jones was there to fail to stop the Nazis'.
all of which goes to show that if you have a movie with great characters told in the way that only movies can, gaping plot holes don't matter. We're on a ride, and we're fine with suspension of disbelief. Now we get terrible stories, shown poorly in dark convoluted CGI scenes full of characters you couldn't care less about. Blech.
I love that Temple of Doom takes place before Raiders. Indy sees a chanting shaman pull the still-beating heart out of a man's chest, then uses a chant to set some magical stones on fire. Then a few years later, Marcus tells him to beware of the possible power of the Ark, and Indy is just like, "Magic isn't real, dumbass."
To be fair, Marion would have died in that cabin if Indy never got involved since they wanted her medallion. So his involvement saved her life. And even if she did survive, without his help, she would have looked at the ark and died . So it’s not entirely for not thing
There was a great 80s cop show called Hill Street Blues, and one of the episodes featured a standup comic named Vic Hitler. He refused to change his name, and as I recall, couldn't figure out why the crowds he performed for were so nasty to him.

2:51 Regarding the angle of the sun changing each day, in the film you can see a grid of holes for where to place the staff. You have to choose the correct hole based on which day of the year it is. Indiana uses a different hole from the one the bad guys used a couple days before.

Yes, and when Indy’s doing that looking & dusting, you can see the hole where the bad guys put their pole on a different day (it’s hollowed out, with no dust). The six foot (72 inches) pole minus one foot (aka a “Kaddam”) remains as a scriptwriting goof however.
@@rex-racer I guess it might have been a cubit in the original script (Egyptians preferred to use that unit instead of a foot) which is about 52 cm (a little over 20" for the yanks). That _kind_ _of_ matches up with what's shown on-screen, though the staff is a bit short for 5 cubits. They also had a "small cubit" which was only 45 cm, five of those is almost an exact match to the pole. They have likely replaced it with foot to make it less confusing for the audience but didn't change the number of units.

However, the old man then flips the medallion over and says "take back one kadam...". So, really, the staff should have been 5 feet tall, and Indiana Jones like 4 feet tall.
@@alexdarth7614 Maybe because Hitler is a surname so there's more than one? So Producer Guy is a lot more familiar with right wing fascists than you'd like.
Not to be that guy to ruin a good joke, but as a WW1&2 buff, I do feel it's worth mentioning for the uninitiated, U-Boats (German submarines) actually mostly traveled on the surface because of limited air, as well as above water travel being faster and more efficient. They really only submerged before launching an attack Edit: so @nexus_of_a_crisis brought up a point my monolingual ass didn't catch, and that a German officer very specifically gave an order to dive. I tried to find the scene in question just to confirm, but there were only 30 second clips i could find that weren't long enough to tell for certain. BUT apparently there is a deleted scene that shows a U-Boat submerged JUST under the surface of the water and Indy is holding onto the persicope, so I suppose that's what happened!
They also kept a constant watch when on the surface (to keep an eye out for enemy boats and planes and things), so they would have easily noticed someone clinging on.
For those who understand the Deutsch, the command is given: "Tauchen das Boot", or whatever [1:33:55] in the movie. What I'm saying is the submarine SPECIFICALLY dives and he somehow gets inside or hitches a ride ... for hundreds of miles, then swims ahead three hundred yards to knock out a guard who's alone until his superior officer appears. 'Scary Movie' level writing right there.
Disney: "Oooh, I see a new joined cinematic universe script in the making!" Coming in 2027: Indiana Jones and the Quest for the Infinity Stones. Both universes used time travel to exploit plot holes, so it will happen and you know it.
Yeah well Christopher Lee was in his late 70s-early 80s in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy and Star Wars Episodes II and III. He was also in his 90s in the first and third Hobbit movie, bucko.
@@EpicJoshua314 that's why he played a wizard instead of an adventurer that has to endlessly keep running, jumping and fighting. (Not a stab at Christopher Lee. The guy's a legend and his performance was remarkable, especially at his age)
@@macvos Doesn’t matter. He still played Count Dooku at the ages of 79 and 82 respectively (and 85 in The Clone Wars movie), so if those movies came out today people would be whining about how an 80 year old was casted in a major role. Just be grateful that these actors can still pull off impressive performances at the ages of 80 onwards. And dude, we aren’t getting an Indy 6 or a TV series to continue Indy’s story after this; rest assured we won’t see an old Indy ever again except in comics and the Young Indy Chronicles so I don’t see why a big deal has to be made about this.
@@EpicJoshua314 if you read my comment, you'd see I only have high regards for his performance in LotR (and also Star Wars). I'm definitely not against casting old actors. I just think they're a bad choice for movies where they are the main protagonist and expected to be running, jumping and fighting all the time, because you'd have to use body doubles or CGI, or limit the action. It would be better to make it a different kind of movie, where story and acting play a bigger role. But then it wouldn't be Indiana Jones. With LoTR and Star Wars, this is tackled by using magic/the Force instead of making him do backflips and karate.
@@macvos Well, despite Harrison Ford’s age he was still able to run, jump, fight, punch… do many stunts… even in the WW2 scenes. As I stated in my comment that’s pretty impressive because how many actors in their early 70s even can do the stunts that Ford and Lee could do in DoD and Star Wars respectively? Plus this was Indy’s last adventure, let alone on screen, meaning that we won’t see an old Indy again except for in comics and the Young Indy Chronicles.

@@osheridan A guy grieving over the loss of his son and going through a separation in the 5th movie is enough to have a terrible after taste when watching even Raiders. That's pretty pathetic to me.
The various holes in floor slab allow the staff to be placed at the correct location, no matter the day of the year. It's a complicated math problem that Indy figured out.
2:50 - Excellent question about the sunbeam moving every day of the year! This is answered onscreen, albeit subtly. When Indiana enters the room, he first inspects the grid of peg-holes on the floor. These are a calendar of dates, telling him where to position the staff for the current day. #Astronomy #Horology - PS: The staff is said by the astronomer to be 5 kadam high, which is 11⅔ feet (not 5 feet, as Sallah erroneously says).
Ryan's ability to talk to Ryan gets better every time. There was a spot where he double checks his notes and paused before a second "hey shut up"... and the response... how does Ryan have such amazing conversational chemistry with Ryan?
In case you were wondering the spike trap wasn't triggered by the light, Indy knew it was a plate on the floor, which is why you see him adjust his foot and step forward as his waves his hand, and doing it meant that the other guy was misled and that's what got him killed by the trap later, he didn't notice the plate, tried the light, and when it didn't work he careless stood on the plate thinking it was safe.
So he suspected the other guy was gonna steal the artefact from him and was ready to trick him so that he would get killed if he were to do that? Pretty harsh.
The day of the year thing is actually addressed in the original script. The writers did a great job showing that Indy had to find the correct placement for the staff to ensure it would show the correct location. They even included the disturbed area where the Nazis had placed their copy of the staff just days before.
There's actually a deleted scene with Indy hanging on to the sub with its conning tower above the surface; German WW2 subs sailed at surface level to preserve fuel and sail with increased speed. They would only dive when stealth was needed or combat action was expected.
There is also a shot in the actual movie, when the submarine arrives at the island, Indy can be seen hanging onto the periscope. He is only a few pixels tall and there is a map overlay happening at the same time, so very easy to miss. Also explains why he looks rather wet and roughed up when he arrives.
Didn't all diesel subs do that? And how would you use more fuel submerged, when you can only run off of batteries? I'm pretty sure the main advantage was speed and conserving the batteries for when you needed them. Not to mention air.
@@Shinkajo - At surface level about a quarter of the sub would not be causing water resistance when moving. Thus saving fuel and allowing greater speed.
Tell him about the part where a sealed underground tomb has a “moving floor” that’s actually a huge pile of snakes that can go years w/o food and water. They just slither around waiting for someone to rappel down toward them from above, then make hissing sounds at any cameras doing a closeup. 🐍
Hey Ryan, First off, I love your Pitch Meeting channel and your just Ryan George channel. They are both hilarious and so fun to watch. Question Time - How do you come up with so many ideas? Do you just do things around the house and see something that makes you say, "Ah ha! I got an idea." For example, your video, "The First Guy to Ever Eat An Egg." Were you simply eating eggs one morning and had the realization that eggs are weird? Thanks, Ryan.😁
Aww, I was kinda hoping there’d be a line like: So Indy finds the Ark of the Covenant, but as it turns out it’s in a chamber where a pane of glass separates him from a bunch of deadly snakes.
I love Indiana Jones! I love Pitch Meetings! I also realized as an adult that if Indiana Jones wasn’t part of this adventure at all, nothing would have changed. Nazis would have eventually discovered the ark. They would have opened it & died with no record of what happened. Indy would still be a professor & archeologist. I still love it, though.
The Nazis probably would have stopped trying to open the Ark, and instead just taken it. Indy retrieved it for the US government to hide away. But really, he wouldn't have witnessed the power of God, which is what the whole trilogy is about: Indy discovering his faith in a higher power.
@@tomspiegel5322 But we know the US government reached the test spot before the Germans. Because Indy had no way to communicate or even untie himself. So the Americans would have always reached it first.

You had me pulling out a lot of old child-originated questions that I had pestered my dad with when I first saw this movie as a kid. A lot of old questions. Damn you. Now I can't ever indulge in my favorite movies anymore because you have me making fun of them now. At least back then, they could make a movie where the questions are forgotten by the end of the film. Now, these days, the film just gets worse and sometimes we don't even finish it before we've had enough garbage and walk out.
@@redskullz1249you start working on the 183rd slot and midway through it you just give up because you realize that you wasted a whole week making tiny holes in the floor in the hope that someone in hundreds of years will come with that specific staff to solve a puzzle or whatever
I absolutely love the implication that the fly-eating scene was specifically described in the script. Imagine how difficult it must have been for them to get the fly to do that on queue.
I've been waiting for this Pitch Meeting literally my whole life. My parents met in the theatre on this movie's opening weekend, so my brother and I literally owe my entire existence to this movie.

I thought this was one of your videos where you revisit old pitch meetings at first. I am genuinely surprised that it took until now for this movie to get a pitch meeting
Those cliffs in Raiders were super weird, especially because ten seconds later they are driving by the Nile and crop irrigation. I think Egypt is very flat too.
@PotrzebieConolly Maybe, but the real Tanis was discovered in the north-east of the Nile delta. Spielberg seems to like putting cliffs in odd places, like in Jurassic Park T-Rex pen!
Yeah, I wasn't commenting on the film's lack of accuracy. Just referring to the statement "Egypt is very flat". Egypt is indeed very flat in the area supposedly shown in the film, but Egypt isn't flat everywhere.
WW2-era submarines stayed on the surface unless attacking other vessels or hiding, so it would not have submerged to transit the Med. However, Indie would have been seen by officers in the con tower. Watch Das Boot to see how these subs operated. The Raiders sub mock-up is literally the same one used to film Das Boot.

The actual story behind Indy’s name is that Indiana was the name of George Lucas’ dog when he was younger and Marion was named after the screenwriter’s mother and Ravenwood is a street name in LA
Pitch meeting I would love to see is Gremlins. I would love to see his reaction to the rules I think that'll be one of if not my favorite part of the pitch meeting.
No mention of the iconic scene where Indiana Jones shoots the dude he was supposed to have a big sword fight with because the actor got sick? "Oh, a big ol' sword fight with lots of stunts and cool choreography!" "Oh boy, sounds like a lot of fun, I just hope the actor doesn't get sick and we have to change that scene to be one of the most memorable moments in film history."
@4:00 damn this is the first time in my life I noticed that Indy is armed with an RPG-7 which wasn't in service until ~20 years after the movie takes place.
4:35 I’ll never forget watching the episode of “The Big Bang Theory” where Amy points out that Indiana Jones had zero impact on the plot and if he’d stayed home then everything would played out the exact same way. My reaction to that may have possibly been similar to Sheldon’s….maybe, I also may spent a good part of the evening searching the internet for something that proved the show wrong.
Well then,you're just the sort of person that this channel is made for, because in addition to this Raiders pitch meeting and the Dial of Destiny pitch meeting and the Crystal Skull pitch meeting and the Crystal Skull pitch meeting revisited, there's a big, beautiful... Ummm... Errrr... Whoopsy!
Yeah, I thought it was going to be a "Revisited" episode, and even had to check partway through to see that it wasn't! I think maybe we've been spoilt by Sir Ryan of George over the years!
“So the ark is hidden in some hard to find, unassuming corner of the map that necessitates this complicated ray of light arrangement?” “No, it’s right in the gigantic central temple.”
"So he calls his bluff and eats a little bug" The best part of the whole movie.

I think it demonstrates how ignorant film producers are.
@@alexdarth7614 Maybe because Hitler is a surname so there's more than one? So Producer Guy is a lot more familiar with right wing fascists than you'd like.
Not to be that guy to ruin a good joke, but as a WW1&2 buff, I do feel it's worth mentioning for the uninitiated, U-Boats (German submarines) actually mostly traveled on the surface because of limited air, as well as above water travel being faster and more efficient. They really only submerged before launching an attack
Edit: so @nexus_of_a_crisis brought up a point my monolingual ass didn't catch, and that a German officer very specifically gave an order to dive. I tried to find the scene in question just to confirm, but there were only 30 second clips i could find that weren't long enough to tell for certain. BUT apparently there is a deleted scene that shows a U-Boat submerged JUST under the surface of the water and Indy is holding onto the persicope, so I suppose that's what happened!
Ooh, going under is tight!
They also kept a constant watch when on the surface (to keep an eye out for enemy boats and planes and things), so they would have easily noticed someone clinging on.
Thanks, I was wondering if I should be that guy, you've saved me.
For those who understand the Deutsch, the command is given: "Tauchen das Boot", or whatever [1:33:55] in the movie. What I'm saying is the submarine SPECIFICALLY dives and he somehow gets inside or hitches a ride ... for hundreds of miles, then swims ahead three hundred yards to knock out a guard who's alone until his superior officer appears. 'Scary Movie' level writing right there.
Doesn’t he also go into the U-Boat??
“Guess not loser!”
“What?”
I love the pure shock in his voice. Favorite part of the video.
Isn't the Peruvian jungle the same place where that lady's mother was researching spiders right before she died?
I get the feeling that if Raiders' lead character was female then a lot of people (men) would be complaining about the "bad writing".
Yeah, Paddington Bear comes from there too. It's pretty busy.
Maybe the spiders that drop down on Indie and his friend's backs were the spiders she was researching!
Disney: "Oooh, I see a new joined cinematic universe script in the making!"
Coming in 2027: Indiana Jones and the Quest for the Infinity Stones.

''Nobody wants to see an 80-year old in a movie like this'' is the best line of the episode.
Yeah well Christopher Lee was in his late 70s-early 80s in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy and Star Wars Episodes II and III. He was also in his 90s in the first and third Hobbit movie, bucko.
@@EpicJoshua314 that's why he played a wizard instead of an adventurer that has to endlessly keep running, jumping and fighting.
(Not a stab at Christopher Lee. The guy's a legend and his performance was remarkable, especially at his age)
@@macvos Doesn’t matter. He still played Count Dooku at the ages of 79 and 82 respectively (and 85 in The Clone Wars movie), so if those movies came out today people would be whining about how an 80 year old was casted in a major role. Just be grateful that these actors can still pull off impressive performances at the ages of 80 onwards.
And dude, we aren’t getting an Indy 6 or a TV series to continue Indy’s story after this; rest assured we won’t see an old Indy ever again except in comics and the Young Indy Chronicles so I don’t see why a big deal has to be made about this.
@@EpicJoshua314 if you read my comment, you'd see I only have high regards for his performance in LotR (and also Star Wars). I'm definitely not against casting old actors. I just think they're a bad choice for movies where they are the main protagonist and expected to be running, jumping and fighting all the time, because you'd have to use body doubles or CGI, or limit the action. It would be better to make it a different kind of movie, where story and acting play a bigger role. But then it wouldn't be Indiana Jones. With LoTR and Star Wars, this is tackled by using magic/the Force instead of making him do backflips and karate.
@@macvos Well, despite Harrison Ford’s age he was still able to run, jump, fight, punch… do many stunts… even in the WW2 scenes. As I stated in my comment that’s pretty impressive because how many actors in their early 70s even can do the stunts that Ford and Lee could do in DoD and Star Wars respectively? Plus this was Indy’s last adventure, let alone on screen, meaning that we won’t see an old Indy again except for in comics and the Young Indy Chronicles.

@@osheridan A guy grieving over the loss of his son and going through a separation in the 5th movie is enough to have a terrible after taste when watching even Raiders. That's pretty pathetic to me.
The various holes in floor slab allow the staff to be placed at the correct location, no matter the day of the year. It's a complicated math problem that Indy figured out.
So what you are saying is that the staff went in a hole so he's even shorter?
wait i think this is part of the lego level
You could see him consult a book, probably an almanac or something, so Indy might not have had to do much calculating himself.
2:50 - Excellent question about the sunbeam moving every day of the year! This is answered onscreen, albeit subtly. When Indiana enters the room, he first inspects the grid of peg-holes on the floor. These are a calendar of dates, telling him where to position the staff for the current day. #Astronomy #Horology - PS: The staff is said by the astronomer to be 5 kadam high, which is 11⅔ feet (not 5 feet, as Sallah erroneously says).
Does that mean Indiana Jones is around 8 feet tall?
Ryan's ability to talk to Ryan gets better every time.
There was a spot where he double checks his notes and paused before a second "hey shut up"... and the response... how does Ryan have such amazing conversational chemistry with Ryan?
They get along real well.

@@RocksterOO1 When he was the first person to ride a horse.
In case you were wondering the spike trap wasn't triggered by the light, Indy knew it was a plate on the floor, which is why you see him adjust his foot and step forward as his waves his hand, and doing it meant that the other guy was misled and that's what got him killed by the trap later, he didn't notice the plate, tried the light, and when it didn't work he careless stood on the plate thinking it was safe.
Thanks, Sheldon.
Oh, thank you, that actually helped me a lot.
Hey shutup...
Spielberg should have had Indy say that to Marion later in the movie verbatim. He's really not a very tight filmmaker.
So he suspected the other guy was gonna steal the artefact from him and was ready to trick him so that he would get killed if he were to do that? Pretty harsh.

Actually watching pitch meetings as soon as they come out is super easy, barely an inconvenience. You literally just have to click the Bell
@@crimson5pider Are you calling this clickbait?!? That's something one of the Hitlers would say!
*Don't read my name... 👀*
The day of the year thing is actually addressed in the original script. The writers did a great job showing that Indy had to find the correct placement for the staff to ensure it would show the correct location. They even included the disturbed area where the Nazis had placed their copy of the staff just days before.
Pitch meetings for old classics are tight!
There's actually a deleted scene with Indy hanging on to the sub with its conning tower above the surface; German WW2 subs sailed at surface level to preserve fuel and sail with increased speed. They would only dive when stealth was needed or combat action was expected.
So he never was thirsty or hungry, or had to poop???
There is also a shot in the actual movie, when the submarine arrives at the island, Indy can be seen hanging onto the periscope. He is only a few pixels tall and there is a map overlay happening at the same time, so very easy to miss. Also explains why he looks rather wet and roughed up when he arrives.
@@TeddyRumble Nobody said he didn't poop!!!
Didn't all diesel subs do that? And how would you use more fuel submerged, when you can only run off of batteries? I'm pretty sure the main advantage was speed and conserving the batteries for when you needed them. Not to mention air.
@@Shinkajo - At surface level about a quarter of the sub would not be causing water resistance when moving. Thus saving fuel and allowing greater speed.
Man, I had no idea how badly I needed to cry until this video made it all come pouring out. Thank you, kind sir.

Hey Ryan,
First off, I love your Pitch Meeting channel and your just Ryan George channel. They are both hilarious and so fun to watch.
Question Time - How do you come up with so many ideas? Do you just do things around the house and see something that makes you say, "Ah ha! I got an idea."
For example, your video, "The First Guy to Ever Eat An Egg." Were you simply eating eggs one morning and had the realization that eggs are weird?
Thanks, Ryan.😁
Aww, I was kinda hoping there’d be a line like:
So Indy finds the Ark of the Covenant, but as it turns out it’s in a chamber where a pane of glass separates him from a bunch of deadly snakes.
Steven Spielberg: "more snakes more snakes!!"
@eclipsehorse8693 “Faster, more intense snakes.” - George Lucas
I love Indiana Jones! I love Pitch Meetings!
I also realized as an adult that if Indiana Jones wasn’t part of this adventure at all, nothing would have changed.
Nazis would have eventually discovered the ark. They would have opened it & died with no record of what happened. Indy would still be a professor & archeologist.
I still love it, though.
But then more Nazis would have discovered it afterwards, taken it to Berlin and won the war. Indy saved us all!
The Nazis probably would have stopped trying to open the Ark, and instead just taken it. Indy retrieved it for the US government to hide away.
But really, he wouldn't have witnessed the power of God, which is what the whole trilogy is about: Indy discovering his faith in a higher power.
@@tomspiegel5322 But we know the US government reached the test spot before the Germans. Because Indy had no way to communicate or even untie himself. So the Americans would have always reached it first.
So you watched the big bang theory where Amy stated that.

Alright then!
You had me pulling out a lot of old child-originated questions that I had pestered my dad with when I first saw this movie as a kid. A lot of old questions. Damn you. Now I can't ever indulge in my favorite movies anymore because you have me making fun of them now.
At least back then, they could make a movie where the questions are forgotten by the end of the film. Now, these days, the film just gets worse and sometimes we don't even finish it before we've had enough garbage and walk out.

Those cliffs in Raiders were super weird, especially because ten seconds later they are driving by the Nile and crop irrigation. I think Egypt is very flat too.
There's mountainous terrain between the Nile and the Red Sea, and the Sinai peninsula has Egypt's highest mountains.
@PotrzebieConolly Maybe, but the real Tanis was discovered in the north-east of the Nile delta. Spielberg seems to like putting cliffs in odd places, like in Jurassic Park T-Rex pen!
I wanna know how we went from Egypt to the Sudan in ten minutes?! lol

WW2-era submarines stayed on the surface unless attacking other vessels or hiding, so it would not have submerged to transit the Med. However, Indie would have been seen by officers in the con tower. Watch Das Boot to see how these subs operated. The Raiders sub mock-up is literally the same one used to film Das Boot.

Except the captain says: "Tauchen". There's no ambiguity, just the biggest plot hole in cinematic history.
