I thought you'd conclude it with crystal skull. I'm looking forward to your post on the fourth movie in a few days. Just bring your laptop, sit in the back, and turn your screen contrast/brightness way down so you don't light things up too much.robmbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07483459468274711568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7061120012623981994.post-66500832919920312092008-05-20T11:56:00.000-06:002008-05-20T11:56:00.000-06:00My Indy 3 thoughts:This is the first of the origin...My Indy 3 thoughts:<BR/><BR/>This is the first of the original trilogy I can remember anticipating, and seeing in the theater (mostly the drive-in). If I recall, there was some question back in 1989 as to whether or not Harrison Ford was to old to be playing Indy again. The answer is no, he was not.<BR/><BR/>I always wondered what the story with the Indy-lookalike from the beginning was (the guy who gave young Indy his hat). Like, what about all his adventures? Was he named after a dog too?<BR/><BR/>Is it me or does the main BOTCS guy look an awful lot like Edward James Olmos? (go ahead and google him again).<BR/><BR/>It may just be the desert heat, but I swear there are moments when Brody is acting flat-out drunk. "You see, Henry! The pen is mightier than the sword!" (Which is also funnier for those of you familiar with celebrity jeopardy—"I'll take the penis mightier for $400, Alex.")<BR/><BR/>I thought the reason why they didn't have eternal life just for drinking from the cup was that they themselves had to remain within the building, not just the grail. That's why he said "that is the price of immortality."<BR/><BR/>Is it me or is the "name of God" not Jehova...that's the "name of Jesus"...plot hole!<BR/><BR/>And...I'm spent.Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12280642152616425150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7061120012623981994.post-69608250167545013622008-05-20T10:35:00.000-06:002008-05-20T10:35:00.000-06:00AND...I think Sallah is in the movie because it wo...AND...<BR/><BR/>I think Sallah is in the movie because it would be awfully mean of Indy to send old bumbling Marcus to wherever he sends him all alone. After all, even though Marcus knows Sallah is meeting him there, he still just wanders through the marketplace going "does anyone speak English? Or ancient Greek?" Luckily Sallah tracks him down just in time to try to save him from Donovan's cronies.<BR/><BR/>Plus, where else would Indy have gotten transportation through the desert if it wasn't for Sallah and his brother-in-law's car? They certainly wouldn't have wanted to ride camels.Krissyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11303624956270684504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7061120012623981994.post-87268576940181042982008-05-20T10:30:00.000-06:002008-05-20T10:30:00.000-06:00Silly man... the grail does not grant immortality...Silly man... the grail does not grant immortality to anybody who drinks from it once! I believe that a person has to drink from it repeatedly in order to sustain the effects. That is why the old (really old) knight is cooped up in that cave with it. And that is why Donovan (and Elsa -- and Indy) wanted to take it with them.<BR/><BR/>I must add: Alison Doody is greatest name ever. And yes, I have changed too many diapers in the past two weeks, but I realize I haven't even made a dent in the total number that will be changed in the coming years.Krissyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11303624956270684504noreply@blogger.com
