Indiana Jones: The Dial of Destiny

My lord this looks absolutely terrible, and from what I've heard from the leaks it's going to be even worse than it looks.

Why couldn't they have just stopped at The Last Crusade? The clue that they should was even in the title!

the last crusade was probably the best one
Sean Connery made it

@SW-User My introduction to the Indiana Jones movies began when I was about 4, maybe 5 years old, seeing "Temple of Doom" aired on television. The part of that film that stood out most vividly to me, was the plane escape scene. Some years later, I saw "The Last Crusade" on television and the part that stood out to me was the tank scene. About a year or two after that, I rented a copy of the NES game, "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" and after having played it more times than I could count, I really wanted to watch the movie to see how close the video game was to it. Some time after, I saw "Raiders of the Lost Ark" on television and the part that stood out to me, was the "Give me the whip! Throw me the idol!" scene. About a year after that, came my re-introduction to the entire trilogy on VHS, a complete box set containing all three films. (at the time, circa 1997) It was then, I watched all three films back-to-back in their entirety and feeling like I just watched them for the first time. I even dressed up as Indiana Jones for halloween, that same year.

@Sidewinder My favourite scene is the huge guy with the sword that Indy casually shoots, lol

@Whodunnit yeah that was improv Harrison Ford wasn't feeling well
it should have been a full fight scene. He couldn't be bothered so pulled out the gun
and the rest is history Haha

@SW-User Some of the best scenes in film have been spur of the moment, and this might top that list, lol

@SW-User i was reading only yesterday about die hard. when Alan rickmans character fell at the end. you see his eyes, they are genuinely scared
the stunt man was counting him down from 5 so he was ready for the fall but let him go on 2 so the shock is real haha

@Whodunnit Fun Fact: Harrison Ford was ill when he did that scene, so instead of an all-out fight scene, it was decided that he just pop a cap in that scimitar weilding keester of his. However, I like the sword scene in Temple of Doom, the most, with the two Thuggee swords men simultaneously swinging their swords as the intercept Indy, having him reach for his empty gun holster before fighting them hand-to hand.
