It's interesting how Lucas seems to understand the ... "spectacle" of pulp adventure better - with his ideas about the Holy Grail and haunted castles and such - while Spielberg seems to understand character arcs better, and together they are able to tie one to the other, making the Grail search analogous to reconnecting with his father in the same story.

River Phoenix as young Indy was the most perfect casting ever.

I showed this movie to my nephew last week. His 9 years old & can never stop looking at his IPad all the time. But when I put this movie on. He was stuck to the TV the whole movie without blinking. He really loved it & it made me very happy. Cause I remembered the excitement of being a kid watching one of the greatest adventure movie series of all time.

The scene with the umbrella and the birds will always be great.

"The Holy Grail isn't strong enough." Excuse me? It's the apotheosis of all quests. It's been a primary object of desire for almost two hundred years of Romantic literature.

They got everything right with this movie, perfectly paced story that gives you just enough time to relax before the next big set piece action segment hits you again. A master class in casting, script writing and direction.
