I've been to both his house, and the library in Venice. That's what makes Indiana Jones such a good movie series. It's authentic work, and they rarely ever used green screen. Such a great series, man.
@@DeepDiveNR nice. It was a really cool trip for me, and to even see the library was even cooler.
I was this summer at Venice and saw the library! Cool fact is, you can actually go just like characters in the film, through the bridge to reach the square where library is placed! This bridge is really a path to the library
@michakozera8279 Yeah, sadly last summer, when I went, we couldn't go in because it was under construction for a temporary Da Vinci museum. So...sadly, I couldn't see if any Roman numerals were in there.
@@UVClipzI will tell you - they are no! Interior was shot in studio in London. Only bridge and library (church actually) are worth paying attention. Da Vinci exhibition also sounds great but we didn't have time
@michakozera8279 yeah, I suspected my expectations for what I would've wanted to see in the museum would not exceed me, and I would've been very disappointed to fund there are zero numerals on the ground, in the "church".
Fun fact: this was the first Indiana Jones movie I ever saw!
Also, the fact that Sean Connery, a former Bond, played Indy's dad is genius casting.
Rest in peace, Sean Connery.

Can I please have the heart back?
Apologies for asking.
I had to change something.
Thanks.

For me, the first time I saw Last Crusade was at Summer Camp. It was quite an experience.
It was also the first time I ever saw a Rocky movie (Rocky 4).
Steven, George, or whoever it was who actually said something like this in the late 70s through to the late 80s:
*before or after Raiders of the Lost Ark was out* Indiana Jones is like James Bond.
*Before Temple of Doom* Then let us put him in a James Bond Outfit!
*By Last Crusade* Then let's cast Sean Connery as his father!!!
This was my first one too.

10:11 Even on a Tiny Phone screen it's obvious to see that Chasm doesn't drop out of frame, she just walks through the doorway and into the shadow of the threshold, and since his suit is dark, he blends into the background.
Yes I came see if anyone else had noticed if not I would have posted it thank you
The Penitent Man scene: The blades are at 2 angles for one cuts off the head of a man that does not kneel, yet the second cuts off the head of a man that prays with their head on the ground... like Muslims. The Templar Knights that hid the grail had crusaded against the Muslims, so the trap would have been designed to stop them even if the prayed and shown penance.
Are you going to cover The Crystal Skull movie? I know that most fans dislike that film but I still find fun with it and am curious to hear a lot of your fun facts about it + any behind the scenes stories :)
I think when Indy looks at the X in the library, I think there's a reason he's looking at it for so long before going up the stairs, the X itself is shiny, where the rest of the floor is matte, so I think you ONLY could see it from at the top of the stairs at that time. I could be wrong, but that's how it looked to me
Spielberg is definitely a director worthy of dedicating an entire summer to, I hope to see more great dives on as many of his films as possible! And i for one do hope Crystal Skull is included, the hate on that movie i think is mostly not deserved.
People are about to find out that Crystal Skull wasn't a bad Indy movie after all. I agree, the amount of hate is unwarranted. The thing I noticed watching Crystal Skull recently was Indy's character is treated with respect, something I think will be sorely lacking in the new film.
You're absolutely right! But Spielberg movies deserves many summers, one is not enough, and Crystal Skull was an OK movie, not better than any of the original trilogy but a worthy ending, treating Indiana Jones with respect unlike disney depressing abomination!
When you started talking about a Spielberg summer, I assumed you'd do a deep dive on Jurassic Park, but I'm super stoked to hear you confirm it. Literally my favorite movie of all time.
The "no ticket" moment on the plane is sold by the woman in the stole. She acts like she doesn't understand what Indy says for a second, but searches her language banks and comes up with what he means. They all should be rich on that zeppelin. They've been around AT LEAST Europe and have probably picked up a word or two.
First time viewer of The Deep Dive - just wanted to say that this is one of the BEST examples of this type of movie analysis/Easter egg videos that I've seen. The editing is excellent, great narration, and it goes very in depth and actually contains info that I didn't know rather than just re-hashing the same stuff we've all heard before. Amazing work!!
When they drop the guy off from the boat, he doesn’t drop off from the picture. He walks into a shadow. He might have taken one step down, but you can still see him there.
yup, merely an illusion caused by the light receding top-down as he walks.
It's the same as someone being smooth at the fake stairs behind a couch trick. He's walking down a couple steps but the light tricks us and keeps our focus
One thing I latched onto with a recent rewatch is that in the beginning of the film when the Coronado blows up, we see Panama Hat's hat floating in the water. His lifelong obsession with obtaining the cross led to his ultimate demise. Learning to "let it go" is an important lesson Indy learns by the end of the film, but Panama Hat never did.
I like that Indy in movie 4 now 5 wears his satchel strap outside of his jacket as opposed to under it after getting stuck on the tank gun
That line where Indy asks Henry what he found, when he answers with “Me? Illumination” gives me chills every time
Alexei Sayle. Actor and comedian who played the car loving ruler of Hatay, also played the Disc Jockey on the funeral planet that the Sixth Doctor visited on classic Doctor Who...
The Marcus Brody joke is the greatest joke in cinema and nothing since has topped it for me 😂
22:35 I like the idea that Indy just gets by on his vast knowledge and wits, and even after all this he still doesn't believe in magic.
I saw this for the first time in a theatre; I was a teenager. The leap from the lion's head was a truly miraculous moment -- not just because of the seemingly non-existent bridge, but because Indy summoned enough faith to step into a chasm in order to save his father.
Hey Eric, what did you think of the theory that after Henry and Indy drank from the grail they got some supernatural or mystical powers that protected them from serious injury or harm, but not death, so that they would still die eventually like a normal person. People theorized that this was how he survived, the nuclear blast in Crystal skull.
i think the novelisation has a different theory for the grail's powers, idk how 'canon' the books are though
I thought it was just a fan theory . However, I didn’t read the books, so I had no idea that it could ever have been mentioned there.
When I was little, Donovan's death scared me so much I had to keep my eyes closed and my brother would tell me when it was safe to look again
As a kid my mum covered my eyes when we all saw this in the cinema! Seeing it the next time, I don't blame you!😂
From one Eagle Scout to another, keep up the great work! Looking forward to the Spielberg summer!
@@DeepDiveNR I'll join as well, go Eagle Scouts!
@@DeepDiveNR Also fun fact, in 1915, when indy was a scout the rank of eagle scout did not yet exist. Life scout was the highest rank and indy had earned it already. Neat
Thank you so much for these deep dives. I randomly decided to watch all of the Indy movies and your releases have been in sync with my watching. Cheers, mate.
I love your deep dives, especially these Indiana Jones films. It really takes me back, but now truly appreciating much more of the scope of the films. Thank you so much! plus ... 😉😉😉
My kids are getting to right age for Indiana Jones and I’m excited to show them these masterpieces in film
Thank you for all the time you took for this breakdown. Love from Belgium 🇧🇪 ❤
Michael Sheard also played Admiral Ozzel in The Empire Strikes Back. That makes him the second Imperial to appear in this movie.
Love all of these Deep Dives you are doing on my favorite movies. I also love the Young Indiana chronicles.
Keep up the great work
Another insightful video. Great work and keep it up!
This has always been my favorite Indiana Jones film. I used to watch it on repeat on VHS back in the day.
when it comes to the grail's power, I believe that it does have a lasting effect on those who drink from it, like not immortality since the knight straight up says you have to remain there and keep drinking from it to gain immortality, but instead gives the drinker lasting increased durability. this makes perfect sense if you look at all the things indy goes through in crystal skull and dial of destiny that would've easy crippled or killed a younger man, let alone someone of his age. so events like the always joked about surviving a nuke in a fridge scene, indy was able to survive due to the lasting effects of the grail.
I love the scene between Indy and Henry at the crossroad. The passion, the music, all of it. So so good!
One of my favorite films of all time
I can’t believe you didn’t mention the Scottish accent was a nod to Sean Connery being a Scotchman and that Henry Jones could also have been Scottish given how he spoke with an accent also making Indy half Scottish.
'Mon the Scots! 💪😂👍 I'm Scottish & only realised as you point it out here that we might presume Indy is half scottish?! Great shout 👏 😆
That raises a good question, do we ever know who his mother is?
@@thechairman74 that’s a mystery. It clear that Henry still loved her by his reaction on the motorcycle when Indy mentioned her.
AWESOME VIDEO ERIK!!
Your videos are so fun, thank you!
Please keep it up Eric! These deep analysis of film principles and director individuality is so fascinating! I absolutely love every word!
I have really enjoyed these Indy breakdowns Eric. You are the BOSS!
Or rather, the Voss 😂
Oh my gosh!! So excited for more of your Spielberg Deep Dives to come! Jaws, Jurassic Park!!!
Thank you thank you for your work. I've followed New Rockstars for a long time & i frickin' LOVE Deep Dives, having wished I'd gone into film industry myself but didn't, love all the extra details about camera work, the folklore, characters etc.
Indiana Jones is my total hero so am delighted you're covering these movies. Also LOVED the Back to the Future Deep Dive. I remember going to cinema to see this as a kid, car so full of family I was relegated to the boot, no seat belt in those days 😂 & my mum covering my eyes when Donovan turns to dust.
Indiana is my son's middle name, and of course, we named our dog Indiana 😆👍❤
Eric, you went up another level in my book. From a fellow Eagle Scout, keep up the good work!
I love Steven Spielberg he is the best director in the world and I love his technique on camera work and his talent on making the shot look like pure gold
I’ve been waiting for this!! My favorite Indy film! ❤
These are so fun. Thank you guys
dude, your movie breakdowns are always so awesome.
Loved this Indy rewatch! The original trilogy is so classic it was super fun rewatching them and then enjoying your breakdowns! I would love even a crystal skull breakdown too 😊
Please! I need someone to give me enjoyment of that movie
well done - thank you!
You (and your crew?) do a really great job with these. Thanks
This video game out 26 minutes ago, I had 26 minutes left in the movie when the video came out, and it was the scene this video begins with. What a sign
I’m really glad you’re doing this Spielberg summer, he’s my favorite director!!
Niiice I was waiting for this
Love this series! Thank u!!!
I've been looking foward to this video all day, love you Erik and the team at New Rockstars
More things I did not know! Oh, for crying out sakes... Am I binging...? No binging...! Amazingly done...! A breath of fresh air...
Liked... Subscribed...
This and the first are my two favorite Indiana Jones movies, and I love how some sequences in both pay direct homage to ones first seen in a couple of Uncle Scrooge adventures by the great Carl Barks: "The Seven Cities of Cibola" and "The Prize of Pizarro."
You probably have seen this already, but IEJOVAH is how your subtitle spelled IEHOVAH... oops! Otherwise, awesome vid. Loved your insights, esp. on Spielberg's "daddy issues"... no doubt, the interactions between Indy and Henry Sr. resonated with MILLIONS of male viewers who had issues of one type or another with absentee (physically, mentally, emotionally, or some combo thereof) fathers. Keep up the great work!
Just rewatched this movie within the last week. Had seen it several times before, but the cut you mention at about 12:15 of this video really did have me busting up. Knowing Edgar Wright is a huge fan of the series, i can see this being an inspiration for him.
Great video.
I think we need a T-Shirt with Erik's face and it just says "Voss is The Boss!" On it as merch.
This is my favorite Indiana Jones movie. We get a lot of his background. And also his father.
I love this channel.
Love love love this! ❤
Nice deep dive and thanks for the tip for Brite Sellers
Thank you for these videos about the Indiana Jones movies, they thrilled me. They bring me sweet memories of my father who took me to the movies to see Temple and Last Crusade when I was a child. I love you dad, in heaven where you are.
I just rewatched all 3 of these original movies on Disney recently. They'll never get old
I thought the seal was at the back of the structure. So he could leave with it, but couldn’t cross it and still leave with it, immortality intact. At least that’s how I interpreted it.
I've got to say I absolutely loved this break down of the thing never noticed the missing jacket and I watched this alot great video
thank you! loved this movie
Another great deep dive! Thanks, Erik!
I love these!!!!!!
This was very good
This Indiana Jones breakdowns are absolutely phenomenal. Thanks so much for them!
10:03 I think the way the shadow falls across him accentuates that appearence.
The episode I've been waiting for. This is my favorite Indy movie, if not my favorite movie in general. That final scene leading into the credits is *chef kiss*
Love the video but I was wondering are you going to do the TV show as well?
This is my favorite of the series. Loved the chemistry with Sean Connery. ❤
I love these old movie breakdowns
I really enjoy your analyses of these beloved films. It makes me like them even more and want to watch them again.
A fantastic way to salute a great series and director! Can't wait for more!
Ok,,,, this was awesome!
Love these deep dives, especially with movies from when I was young. I am sure you have done some X-Men reviews on NR, but consider doing it again DD style in the next few months so we can get more info before Deadpool and Wolverine whenever it actually comes out...Even if you don't, I love you and all the heavy lifting you do to make sure we understand why the directors and actors do what they do--Thank You❤
15:42 - The actor who played Adolf Hitler (Michael Sheard) also played Admiral Ozzel in The Empire Strikes Back (he was the first Imperial officer to be Force-choked by Vader).
18:28 - How exactly did that satchel strap get looped around that gun barrel like that? Indy never fell or ventured out near the end of that barrel, and at no point did he unclip one end of the strap, loop it around the barrel, and reclip it.
This is pure joy
Please don't skip Crystal Skull, and do Dial of Destiny too!!!
I think I have this movie to credit my wanderlust dreams (seeing this as a child it seemed so cool) now I'm an anxiety ridden adult
My favorite breakdown
Henry says "May he who illuminated this..." and at the end he sees the Grail Knight. He looks at the Grail Knight almost as if he recognized him. Henry later says he found illumination. I submit that the Grail Knight illuminated the manuscript and Henry was one of the brothers in a past life, which is why they recognize each other. Or, perhaps, Indy was the brother in a past life, and illuminated the manuscript, and later Henry. Either way, Henry's obsession is explained.
This was a fun watch.
At 16:32 you can also see the piano player just above Indy is wearing the same outfit Indy wore in the beginning of Temple of Doom.
17:14 My favorite scene as a kid was when the plane is going through the tunnel.
4:06 Dr. Fantasy is also mentioned in Poltergeist, where the hotel sign at the end of the film welcomes Dr. Fantasy for some weekend magic shows.
I hope you still do a breakdown video for the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull movie 🤞🏻
Great show, old bean!!!
I was a scout, but got kicked out after two weeks for bringing beer on a scout trip to some cave. Can't remember where. However, one of my sons and two of my nephews are Eagle Scouts.
I interpreted the conversation with Donovan when he says "we're only one step away"....Jones: "that's usually when the ground falls out...." as being when the grail is about to be removed from the temple, and the ground literally starts falling out and cracking as the grail passes The Great Seal.
Just do Kingdom of the Crystal Skull next, and we are set for Dial of Destiny!!!
I'm a third generation Eagle scout and my 9 year old boy is loving scouts. Congratulations on the achievement!
You rock Eric!
So pleased to learn you are a fellow Eagle scout
Good job E
I absolutely adore The Last Crusade. I often go back and forth between this and Raiders for my favorite Indy movie. It’s an incredible film.
funny thing I was rewatching this movie yesterday and saw the exact same easter eggs, I wouldve said in the comments of your temple of doom video haha
This is not only my favorite Indiana Jones movie, but probably my favorite movie of all time.
