The opening of this film was inspired by Sean Connery’s James Bond in “Goldfinger”. The music number, the tux, etc. were direct references. Spielberg loved that role so much that he cast Connery as Indy’s dad for the 3rd film!

Temple of Doom is the movie that brought on the PG13 rating. There was a lot of concern about the violence especially the heart pulling scene. There was concern that it was violent for Young children. So the rating industry came up with a PG-13 rating shortly after Temple of Doom was released

Temple of Doom has gradually become my favorite of the Indy movies. The main reason is because Indy has the best character arc in this film. He starts off as being a selfish guy looking for fortune, then turns into a hero. When he first robs the Sankara stones is when he begins to care about the children. He hears their cries and turns to help. The stones have a positive effect on his character. Great film, great trilogy.

They dumped the fuel to crash the plane in the movie. However, when a plane knows it's going to crash they try and fine unpopulated areas to do so then dump as much fuel as they can so the plain doesn't become a bomb. You would also dump fuel from an engine to try and put out a fire as well. Oh, also landing weight is lighter than take off weight. If you had to emergency land and needed to be lighter for that emergency landing strip, you'd dump fuel in that situation as well so you wouldn't run out of runway.

And pilots dump their fuel minutes before they attemp the landing, so it ends up on top of the residential area, as previous case shows. if the airplane is high enough, the fuel will evaporate way before it hits the ground, so usually fuel dumping is not really a problem, even if it was done on residential area.

Short round is also Data in the goonies not sure if you guys seen that movie yet and he is also in everything everywhere all at once highly recommend when it comes out to watch.

Fun fact, in the beginning of the movie when he goes to the airport the British officer speaking to him before he gets on the plane is Dan Aykroyd

So a few fun facts. The old shaman who sends Indy on the quest initially didn't speak any English at all, so Spielberg is actually reading the lines to him off screen and he's repeating what he hears to say them. The buff cultist who Indy fights on the conveyor belt and who winds up getting crushed is the same stunt actor who played the German mechanic fixing the plane in Raiders. He also appears in Last Crusade in a cameo role outside of the zeppelin when it is launching. As far as Universal needing to have a minecart style ride...they're actually making one. As part of the new theme park currently under construction in Orlando, "Epic Universe", a Donkey Kong themed roller coaster is in the works and is designed in such a way as to mimic the game's feature of leaping from track to track in the minecart. It should be open in a few years. Finally the closeup shots of the gators at the end were filmed at Gatorland in Orlando, not far from where Universal is located.

Fun Fact: The English man that got them on the plane with live poultry was played by Dan Akroyd.

This is in fact my favorite movie of all time. In a sense, defending Willie, she is just a performer who happened to live this adventure. You can't really blame her. However, towards the end she really warmed up to the adventure as you can see that helped uncuffing the children, shadow boxing along with Indiana, and during the cart part even acting herself. With a character as first-world as her this was very believable. I 100% understand the complains on her but upon rewatching I really like her character a lot. Edit: Funny that you mentioned Zorro 2 at the end, and I totally agree. The child really was my only complain on that movie. Edit2: Since the first movie showed the Arc of the Covenant one can assume that this one featuring Kali and the supernatural elements in this feel very demonic. Which would make sense in a world where the Arc is also a supernatural thing.

The last 40 minutes of this film is the best action in the whole series.

Couple fun facts: -The opening scene takes places in "Club Obi-Wan" (there is a sign over the door as they leave). -Kate Capshaw (Willie) is now married to Steven Speilberg (they have been married since 1991)..

I always feel really sorry for Willy in this film. I know the majority of us would be acting the same as her, coping just as badly in circumstances which she didn’t ask for and has no experience or knowledge of.

I remember seeing this in the theater when I was a kid. That scene where the mine cart jumps the break in the tracks....it was completely silent in the room and after it landed the entire place erupted in cheering. That kind of thing happened a lot in the 80's (and 90's). Not to sound like the old guy, but you just don't have movie experiences like this anymore because everyone is so jaded and seen it all. The last time recently I can remember having that kind of experience in the theater was seeing Guardians of the Galaxy.

So nothing Jen said about Willie is wrong, but in defense of the character: This is a prequel and we already know that Indy will be single in a year because he's single in Raiders. So the love interest in this movie has to be of a nature that you don't ever ask "What happened to Willie Scott?" They broke up because, ultimately, they weren't compatible and that's obvious from the movie. In order to get around this problem, they made Willie into what's called "The Load." This is a character whose mere presence is a problem for the hero, but whom the hero can't simply abandon (or shoot). She doesn't contribute anything but difficulties and that's supposed to be funny. Once you embrace the idea that you're *supposed* to hate Willie she's a lot more tolerable. I find Willie a funny character in the buttmonkey sense. And I can believe Indy found something he liked about her...body. Also, and this comes out more in the novelization where you get more of Willie's background, she's actually a really smart cookie and tough gal, it's just that she's a character who belongs in a noir detective story who gets caught up in a jungle adventures with cults and is totally out of her element. But in the novel you learn she grew up in a farm in Oklahoma in dire poverty, and clawed her way up into this life of glamour where she's headlining shows is swanky Hong Kong nightclubs, living her dream life, when this complete asshole named Indiana Jones enters her life and completely ruins everything. Like really try to see things from her POV and you realize this movie is like the absolute fucking worst week she'll ever have and it's all Indy's fault. You'd whine too. Also, Short Round is literally the best Kid Sidekick in cinematic history. Kid Sidekicks are almost always horrible and tedious, but Short Round has exactly the right amount of sass and spunk, balanced by some good dramatic scenes that really make it clear he worships Indy. I actually think Willie suffers as a character because they give Short Round so many great scenes.

The big guy that Indy fights in the mine cart also played the mechanic he fought near the plane in Raiders of the Lost Ark, the one that got turned to chop suey

The one has some of the best music of the 4 films. The opening, the freeing the slaves scene, the ending…it’s just so good.

My favorite part about this film always be Dan Aykryd’s random cameo for one minute of screen time saying “You will be flying on a cargo plane!” And then suddenly “wait a minute.. are you Willy Scott the famous singer?!!!” 😂

The big guy Indy fights is Pat Roach, he actually plays the German mechanic he fights in the first film, as well as the guy who nearly choked him to death in the bar in raiders. There’s also a deleted scene in last crusade where they fought again as Spielberg loved the gag and idea of Indy always fighting a massive tall dude and liked having it be the same actor, as a reference to the old serials.

Kate Kapshaw had to take tranquilizers during the filming of the palace dinner scene. This film is acutally banned in India, the filming had to happen in Sri Lanka. I was suprised to see Jen take the dinner scene so well, I still remember everyone in my movie theatre flipping out in the 80's (at a time when people watched politely a film, unlike today when people participate in a movie showing). Jen hating on Willie's character was hilarious.

The reasons that planes are able to dump fuel is for emergency landings. 1) So, if they crash there will be less fuel for possible fires or an explosion. 2) If a plane has to do an emergency landing at an airport closer than their intended destination due to weather or some other issue, they dump the fuel to get rid of the access weight to make the landing easier.

Temple of Doom was very dark for a Spielberg film. And you could see the drastic comedic shift when they did the Last Crusade--the best Indy movie of the whole series.

They were making a big deal about them in the village because they were guests, that's what people do in a lot of cultures. Also, they felt they were a gift from the universe, someone who could go find their kids since they didnt have the power or position to do anything about it.

The actor who played Short Round is also in The Goonies along with another future Lord of the Rings actor. I'd love to see a reaction to The Goonies sometime.

I love Willie Scott, they don’t like each other, they are complete opposites but they are stuck together, so the only attraction between them is physical, and it’s enough. that’s very funny and unique.

These are just even better with Holden's adult jokes that Jen goes mom mode on and calls him by his full name.

After seeing this you need to watch Everything Everywhere All at Once. It just came out and has the actor that plays short round. Also if you ever go to Disneyland in CA they have an awesome Indiana Jones ride.

They were going for a James Bond feel with Indiana Jones at this time. To the point they wanted a different love interest per film. Also, as a note, Temple of Doom is actually a prequel since it's set a year before Raiders. I don't know if it's a consensus, but some did dislike Short Round as much as Willie. So I'm always happy to see positive reception. Temple of Doom tends to be the black sheep of the first three films. Kate Capshaw (Willie) married Steven Spielberg, so at least they can say they got to meet their future spouse during this film. I personally don't hate Willie, but I don't prefer her as his love interest either

Did you miss Dan Aykroyd's scene? He was the guy sending them on the plane in opening sequence.

Not really. Marion did say she and Indy knew each other when she was still "a child" at her bar in Raiders. Something that definitely happened well before the events of Temple of Doom. In any case, he still "cheated" as it were on Marion with Elsa Schneider in Last Crusade.

The perfect trilogy. This was my favourite as a kid. Shorty is fantastic. One of those rare occasions when a child actor doesnt grate on you.

An interesting fact: The guy that Indy fights with the red beard and the turban is the same actor that Indy fought next to the airplane that Marion was stuck in that got his head cut off in the propeller blades. He is also in Last Crusade as one of the SS guys when they are about to take off in the zeppelin. Also, this is a prequel to Raiders. It takes place in 1935, a few years before Raiders.

Holden, the London Symphony Orchestra was only used for *Raiders of the Lost Ark.* The other Indy film scores were recorded with the Hollywood Studio Symphony.

Short Round (Ke Huy Quan) also played a great character in "The Goonies". You should watch it if you haven't already.

Great catch Jen. That was club Obi-Wan. Also the man in glasses who sent Indy and crew off..... was Dan Ackroyd. Great video!

The contact that tells Indy that he will be riding on a cargo plane full of live poultry in the beginning of the film is none other than Dan Aykroyd himself! Took me years to notice!

Great catch Jenn with Club Obi Wan!! There are a load of little easter eggs like that throughout the Indy franchise :)

If I can recommend some movies check out: The Guest(2014), It Follows(also 2014 if I remember right), Ravenous(1999). They are all movies that are something special and unexpected.

I caught the Ghost reference holden! That's my favorite band, I never thought I'd see that crossover lol. I would love your take on them!

7:17: Air Force One. Classic from my childhood. My dad is a huge Harrison Ford fan so we watched so many of his films when I was a kid.

As a kid who grew up during the days of VHS, most people my age seem to have owned one of the three, and worn them out (including me). Our family had the Temple of Doom, so I have seen that probably over 30 times, though it is my least favorite of the three. Time for the Last Crusade!

Great reaction you two! I love the Indiana Jones intro. 😊 Been looking forward to this one. This is the darkest of all of the Indiana Jones movies. This movie and the movie "Gremlins"(I highly recommend), which came out in the same year, prompted the first two PG-13 rated movies. 15:47 - 16:01 Many years later, and I still have a hard time watching this scene. LOL! This scene is what prompted the PG-13 rating. Fun Fact: Director Steven Spielberg met his future wife Kate Capshaw(who plays Willie) while making this movie. Fun Fact #2: 7:04 There's a cameo by actor Dan Aykroyd as the guy that's walking Indy, Short Round, and Willie to the the plane. Next up: "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade". Looking forward to the next reaction. 😊

Idk if you watch any of corridor’s videos, but one of the recent vfx ones showed how in the wider shots of the mine cart chase where you see the whole cart on the tracks, it’s actually stop motion and the characters are just dolls in the carts. I never noticed that until they pointed it out, but it works really well.

And Short Round just won an Oscar for his first performance since the '90's! Looking at videos regarding him, it's such a beautiful story, same with Brendan Fraser

I think you missed the the call back to Raiders when Indy faced off with the two sword wielders and reached for his pistol....to find nothing. BTW, Kate Capshaw, who played Willie, met Spielberg on this film and they later married. I wouldn't be too hard on her character. She provided an important role of comedic relief.

6:29 Jen GREAT eye. None of ANY of the reaction channels I've watched has ever been able find that. You are a Nerd Goddess.

The white suit is a reference to James Bind as Speilberg was lobbying to direct a Bond film at the time but was rejected.

Ke Huy Quan (Short Round), who also Played Data in The Goonies, left acting for a long time (due to a lack of opportunity) but returned recently for a co-starring role in Everything Everywhere All at Once.

The kid in this movie, short stack, is Ernie Reyes Jr. he also played Keno the pizza delivery guy in TMNT 2: The Secret of the Ooze. He was also the small guy who fought the Rock in the Rundown.

The name of the character is short round, and is played by Ke Huy Quan. Ernie Reyes Jr is not involved in this movie. He does some stunt work in Indiana Jones and the crystal skull but was an adult at that point.

I've always loved this one and it's refreshing to see people who don't have a bias against it.

The Indian guy that Indiana had a flight with, was the same stuntman in the raiders of the lost ark who got killed by the plane.

@@TheYoungDoctor Yep, spot on. He was great in Auf Wiedersehen pet, re-watched all the series recently.

If I would be a movie director, I would have made a Shortround spinoff

the kid in this is Data from the goonies! he’s also in everything everywhere all at once which came out this year and is the best film of the year for me!!

I'm so glad I wasn't the only one to pick up on the ritual chanting sounding like Duel of the Fates!

Couple of notes. 1.) the nightclub they are in in the beginning is indeed called Club Obi-Wan. 2.) Kate Capshaw (who plays Willie) is Stephen Spielberg’s wife in real life. Also in the airport scene you can see George Lucas, Kathleen Kennedy, Stephen Spielberg in the background.

This movie was one of the reasons the PG-13 rating was started. This came out as a PG movie and many parents were upset about the more serious darker tone. At the time George Lucas was going through a divorce and wanted to do a more dark adventure movie.

Funny you mention the Millennium Falcon sound for the second time in the Indiana Jones videos. The sound of the Falcon is taken straight from the ignition sounds of some old timey airplane.

The Indiana Jones movies were said to be the dreams and nightmares of Han Solo while he was frozen in carbonite there are lots of Star Wars references in the background if you look carefully like club Obi-Wan and a number on the door of a plane that is Star Wars related

I loved Short Round in this. He's a great actor and recently starred in another amazing film "Everything Everywhere All At Once" and you guys should totally check that out too. it's definitely one of my favorite movies now.

Bridge battle was incredible

Temple of Doom was my introduction to Indy. I had no idea until recently that it was a prequel.

I dont remember if youve seen Goonies. But the kid who played ShortRound also played Data in Goonies. And i remember in a interview with the Goonies Cast reunion someone asked him, what did he like best going down the waterslides in Goonies or Jumping out of the plane with Indiana Jones. And i thought he gave one of the best answers. He said “ if i did not jump out of the plane with Indiana Jones i would never have gone down the waterslides in Goonies.

You guys need to watch The Goonies now! It also stars the actor who played short round

Absolutely love shortround

The kid in this movie is one of my favorite child actors watching him in goonies was good as well

Watched the first upload, rewatching this one for the views and liking! Sorry you guys have been having issues lately :(

The scene where Indy makes the point about the villager's food, and Willie offending them, is a standout scene of this movie, I always remember this scene. The double swordsman scene is a callback to the sword guy Indy shoot in Raiders. Indy chasing after the red guards and then being chased by more red guards is a callback to the scene in Star Wars where Han runs after a stormtrooper, only to end up being chased by more stormtroopers.

Usually a plane willl dump fuel when it expects to crash, or is making a general emergency landing; so if it does crash the fireball it creates will be minimized. I also think they do it sometimes to reduce weight, but I'm not sure the circumstances for that.

I saw this in the cinema at the time, and yes, Short Round was very well liked as a character. On the other hand, Willie was universally loathed by everyone that I knew who saw the film. Even after all these years those opinions still hold true.

not everyone hates Willie Scott. We liked her. it is only a tall story.

Love Indy. The best movie by far is The Last Crusade. Also I hope you continue with Crystal Skull. Some people don't watch it cause of bad reviews, but its really not a bad film. It gets too much hate for a movie that wasn't that bad. It's my least favorite of the 4, but its still a solid Indy movie.
