When I was a kid in the mid-90's I was looked at as weird for saying this was my favorite Indiana Jones movie. Well 25 years later it still is my favorite, and no one can tell me differently!
Why would anyone call you weird just because Temple of Doom was your favorite Indy movie??? Temple of Doom is every bit the legendary film that both Raiders & Last Crusade both are. Heck, Temple of Doom was the first Indy movie that my brother & I ever watched back when it aired on HBO for the very first time after its original theatrical run and to this day, Temple of Doom remains our #1 Indiana Jones film ever.
There's a choral aspect to that scene: the audience is invited to join the locals in cheering at the end. It must have been quite something watching this in a cinema way back when. Spielberg and Williams at the top of their game!
@@FalconNest Yeah it does sound big, and echoing and cathartic. So, so good. Must be so fun to compose that, and know you created it, and just feel it with the orchestra. He must love his job.
I love 3:37 when Raiders March layers with Short Round's theme! I've watched this movie countless times but only payed attention to this when I watched the other day. Williams is beyond brilliant!
I was 15 when I saw this at the Loews Astor Plaza in Manhattan - twice! It was a 70mm blowup from the original 35mm. Unforgettable on the big screen! I never had a better time in the cinema.
Thank you for sharing this! It must have been such an experience! Pity that critics were so harsh when they reviewed it. I love that Spielberg inserted the cheer moment at the end, before the credits roll (in Raiders he inserted it when Indy gets on the UBoat). The score is so elating and heroic. What a rollercoaster ride of a film this is.
There's going to be a Documentary on Disney+ all about the brilliant John Williams featuring interviews with Steven Spielberg and George Lucus. Can't wait to watch it. It should be brilliant. He's wrote so many fantastic pieces of music over the years. Superman, Star wars, ET, Jaws, Indiana Jones to name but a few. His music always fills me with emotion. He is my favourite modern composer. He's a genius.
God I love the transition from the main theme to the badass song at 4:18 such a great song and soundtrack for personally my favorite Indiana jones movie something about it lures me more into the indie universe.
It's this wonderful blend of vicarious adventure, horror, and cheesiness blended together with so much energy and editing perfection that it makes this film unique. I should write up an essay on why ToD is so great and greatly entertaining, or perhaps do a video review, though my skills are very poor to come up with something decent.
@@FalconNest yes you should! I would totally read or watch it. The movie has everything you need for movie types like this don’t understand why critics say it’s terrible
@@almighty5839 I also think this movie is great, and I think it has the best sounding soundtrack of the five. And yeah that transition is awesome.. similar in Last Crusade, but into a different tune..
Dude, I've been trying to do my own damn audacity mix for years now. Never seemed to get it right. Could never the music just right, so you could always tell. You are my new hero. Bonus points for the accurate ending too!
Thanks so much! It took a while for the video to get past the copyright claims from those Disney pricks. I've been trying to put together the finale of the Last Crusade as well, which is a bit more complicated to get right (I haven't uploaded it yet). Besides, the Temple of Doom score is just so full of energy, which made my work way more enjoyable.
This is the first IJ movie that I watched in the cinema. I missed RotLA 'coz I was only 11 when it was screened. After I watched this for the first time, I came out of the theatre and got myself another ticket and went in again. I watched in 7 times in the cinema. Everything about this movie captured me, the plot, the music, the action, everything. Then I kept looking for a chance to watch RotLA in cinema and I had to wait till 2 years later when it was screened again briefly in a nearby cinema.
My favorite Indiana Jones movie is Temple of Doom. In Japan, it was given the subtitle "Legend of Evil Palace."🇯🇵 TOD is one of the best entertainment movies that America released in the 1980s, the final period of the Cold War, with a world view that was created freely and openly, as if mocking the Eastern Bloc countries. I live in Japan, and at that time, the movies that boldly competed with these Hollywood movies in the Japanese market were "Hong Kong movies from the British colonial period, before freedom had died out."😢 TOD begins in "Shanghai during the concession period, when freedom and chaos coexisted," before the war, and goes to "India during the British colonial period," where the story is about liberating Indian children who are under the control of an evil cult. There is a love romance with a beautiful heroine, and an Asian boy plays a major role as an assistant. The beauty of the young Indian sultan who is liberated from the control of the evil cult also leaves a strong impression. Just listening to each part of this theme brings to mind the famous scenes of TOD.😍 These elements have been almost lost in the current American movies that are bound by political correctness.😢 That is why I want the younger generation to watch American movies from the 1980s, starting with TOD. They are full of fun and excitement that need no explanation.😌
Edit: What Hollywood and Hong Kong movies of the 1980s had in common was that they were free and large-scale works with a worldview that was shot with a film camera without using CG. There were also great entertainment works in Japanese movies at that time, but they did not reach the scale of Hollywood or the grandeur of Hong Kong. Hollywood and Hong Kong movies at that time were the aspirations and goals of Japanese creators.😍 At the same time, it also meant that Japan chose to stay in the chaotic but free Western countries, rather than the dogmatic Eastern countries.😌 In today's Japan, there are some aspects where media such as manga, anime, and games have caught up with the former Hollywood and Hong Kong territories. However, Hollywood today is dominated by PCs, and freedom has been lost from Hong Kong.😇 Not only are both of them no longer the aspirations of current Japanese creators, but on the contrary, they are even beginning to fear that the domination by PCs and the death of freedom will spread to Japan.😱 When that happens, there is no doubt that sharpness and brilliance will be lost forever from Japanese subculture.😭 I believe that people in Western countries who were there at the time should take this seriously and realize how serious this is.😢
What a fantastic edit! I wouldn't have even known it wasn't part of the original score if I hadn't read the description! Bravo man, I'll be listening to this one often.
The tone comes from how both Spielberg and Lucas were in their personal lives at the time ie they were both going through divorces and were very cynical about things and it translated to the screen in many ways. Spielberg even stated this is his least favorite film of the series now thanks to it's tone but did state the best thing that came out of it was meeting Kate Capshaw and marrying her.
You could have kept it. Ah, what for? They'd just put it in a museum. It'd be another rock collecting dust. But then it would have given you your fortune and glory. Anything could happen. It's a long way to Delhi. [laughs] No thanks. No more adventures with you, Dr. Jones. Sweetheart, after all the fun we've had together. If you think I'm going to Delhi with you, or any place else, after all the trouble you've gotten me into, THINK AGAIN, BUSTER!! I'M GOING HOME TO MISSOURI WHERE THEY NEVER FEED YOU SNAKES BEFORE RIPPING YOUR HEART OUT AND LOWERING YOU INTO HOT PITS!! THIS IS NOT MY IDEA OF A SWELL TIME!!! Excuse me, sir, I need a guide to Delhi! If you could show me what- -[WHIP CRACKS]
I count the 4th and 5th Indy movies because he uses the Raiders march at start of end cast. I was in tears when the Raiders march was used at the end of the Dial of destiny because when Harrison Ford's name came up the tears just ran down my face because it would be his last Indy movie. My favourite Indy movie is Raiders of the lost ark because it gave us Harrison Ford as the iconic Indiana Jones and that fantastic Raiders theme tune.
indiana jones nie zniszczalny prawda!!!!!! oglądałem wszystkie częśći 1 2 3 4 5 indiana jones i poszokiwacze zaginionej arki fajne!! ale z drastycznimimetodami i następne indiana jones i last crusaade like śmieszne i fajne indiana jones i świątynia zagłady straszna !!! sama nazwa mówi

I'm looked at for weird now since barely anyone ik has seen an indiana jones movie, i can only thank my parents for that one
I get ya bro! Love this one as much as the other 3, and 4 is my favorite and the best one!!
So iconic. The ending of Temple of Doom is so perfect. Always makes me tear up a bit. Remember kneeling next to the tv recording this as a kid.

Me,too.

@@scrrificationdefinitely agree with ya sad it’s the most underrated and disliked out of the three feel like I’m the only one who loves it sometimes
This soundtrack is amazing! I love the soundtracks for 1-3, but this is the one I hum or whistle the most.
Always loved that high pitch at 3:17
That is how you make an awesome sequel

I would do ANYTHING to see RotLA in a theater, specifically that one.
@@DrasticFox2004 I've seen it in a theater, here in my town there's a cinema that only shows cult movies. Amazing experience.
Dude you watched this in chronologicall order! Temple the raiders that's awesome!!
8:31 is the best moment for sure.
"We knew you were coming when life return to this village. Now you see the magic of the rock!"
"yes. I understand it's power now"
@@trolololotrololo853 where indy finally learns about magic and raiders is when he believes it and crusade and Crystal skull he knows it is real!

The best Indiana Jones movie and the second best ist Indiana Jones and the last crusade 😍
Nah it’s Raiders it’s Perfect
Raiders is the perfect action/adventure movie. Nothing touches it
Jones Indiana Jones y el templo maldito
everibody has the right to prefer his indiana Jones movie. it's the last crusade for me but i love the others even the 4
Raiders is epic and, as a true lighting in a bottle, cannot be topped. But I love ToD, which is possibly the most re-watchable movie ever.
RIP Amrish Puri (Mola Ram), June 1932 - January 2005 (death at age 72)
i love it, thanks
This is my go-to video for this song. It sounds so clean every time man 👌
Thanks!!
Des larmes....cette musique
Je veux retourner dans le passé
Excellent work my friend! Thank you!
Man Idk why but I love the transition at 7:01-7:08
This and Crystal Skull have the most upbeat endings and raiders and crusade have the most thrilling ones!
New sub!
Não me canso de escutar essa trilha sonora muito bom!!
Nicely done man! Sound really good and close to the movie.
4:25 is where the fun begins! I love this part a lot
Legendary
even this movie is very dark and mean spirited. it does have a happy ending

Music gets real when the beat of a drum gets fast
I love the transition 7:55 8:01
personally raiders is my fav
Is there a name for the motif that starts at 6:06? Thanks
It is called "Short Round's Theme".
Good soundtrack and movie
I agree
You could have kept it.
Ah, what for? They'd just put it in a museum. It'd be another rock collecting dust.
But then it would have given you your fortune and glory.
Anything could happen. It's a long way to Delhi.

It's actually, "विश्वासघात किया", "vishvaasaghaat kiya

I love it
7:59
2:19 2:21 2:33
I cannot believe this film has received such criticism just for being darker
Fortune and glory kid fortune and glory
The temple of doom is my favorite movie and my favorite character is Mola ram played by the indian actor : Amrish Puri
No time for love.
Hold on lady we going for a ride
ToD has always had my favorite soundtrack of the Indy Trilogy. I don't count the garbage 4th film.
Agreed. The fourth film is a steaming pile of dung.
I count the 4th and 5th Indy movies because he uses the Raiders march at start of end cast. I was in tears when the Raiders march was used at the end of the Dial of destiny because when Harrison Ford's name came up the tears just ran down my face because it would be his last Indy movie. My favourite Indy movie is Raiders of the lost ark because it gave us Harrison Ford as the iconic Indiana Jones and that fantastic Raiders theme tune.
