My So-Called Perfunctory Existence

The Best Indiana Jones Movie

This is from a debate (ok screaming match) I
had with my brother. We get really bored on
Sundays so we watch movies and then get
mad at each other about them. Today we
watched "Indiana Jones and the Last
Crusade"

I think that Last Crusade is the best of the
movies. Ok first of all, Sean Connery's in it
and he's freaking James Bond. Come on,
right there! Then you have meaner Nazis,
including that bitch that you really don't know if
you can trust for a while. Throws a bit of
mystery into it. Sure, she's the second worst
of the Jones chicks (what you think Kate
Capshaw was good?) and Marion kicked ass,
but the first movie, was, well a little weaker
than the last one. And the second one was
just bad. Horribly, horribly bad. The only good
thing about that movie was that Harrison Ford
was in it. That's it. I really can't stand to watch
most of that one.

Matt thinks that the second movie, Temple of
Doom, was the best. Why? All the cool
voodoo stuff he says. WHAT?!?!?!? That
wasn't THAT cool. Hell, the voodoo from
Weekend at Bernie's 2 was a little better at
times. And I certainly didn't enjoy the kid slave
labor. And that annoying little kid. And Kate
Chapshaw whining for 2 hours. I kept
wondering when Indy would just leave her on
a mountain somewhere. But he didn't...she's
just the rebound girl I guess.

Now let's not leave Raiders out of the picture.
Ok great movie of course but...I don't know, I
just don't think that Harrison Ford was as
good in that one as he was in Last Crusade.
Plus the last one had humor, action, danger,
romance, betrayal, intrigue, mystery, shall I go
on?

So at the end of the day, Last Crusade wins
my vote as the best of the three. And my
brother has a black eye. All's well in the world.
