I love the fact that it’s Ke Huy Quan’s debut movie. A full circle moment when he hugged Harrison Ford on stage.
In the Indiana Jones comics, Indy was so horrified about what happened, that when he and Shorty got back to the States, Indy adopted him and sent him to boarding school. Shorty then goes onto college to become an archeologist himself and you see him sometimes on digs with Indy. Spielberg has said he now wishes he'd brought him back again, especially because Mangold had no interest in doing so. But that he likes the idea of the comics and Shorty on his own archeological digs, even if we don't see him. So just think, he's around, but he has his own shit going on. So they're probably calling and letter-writing.
Would love for them to give him a short series, just maybe a fun adventuring, lighthearted kinda thing as a grownup character, maybe from in the comics universe or smth! would make sense after all the success his actor has had lately, he deserved to be brought back for more films! Maybe it could be like a more family appropriate spin on adventure films like this one w none of the nasty orientalism stuff
@@googoogaga7986 We can call it Tall Round. ;)
Sounds like a shorty spin off!!
That makes me feel better about the whole situation!
Also can we just talk about how much star quality ke Huy quan has. This is his film debut and to me, he’s my favorite of the sidekicks because he holds his own. He even has his own heroic musical score. And my favorite clip right now is his mini reunion with Harrison ford on the red carpet for dial of destiny because Harrison was clearly over it in the interview and instantly lit up when ke gave him a hug.
Omg he’s amazing and he killed it in everything everywhere all at once!!
I've always LOVED this movie BECAUSE it's so dark.
I love that Rizzo is so excited about these that's he's practically bursting at the seams to get out as much trivia as he can. These are great
It was so much fun rewatching this with a more open mind!!! It’s problematic and also incredibly unique when compared to the other four films! I definitely put this near the top of the Indy saga!
Amrish Puri (the priest) is like the national villain of Indian movies 😂 he has done so many villainous roles in so many movies it's not a surprise that he got a villain role in a Hollywood movie as well 😂😂😂
Also, Harrison Ford's Indian accent is hilarious 😂
My husband who's Indian loves that Amrish Puri is in this movie. It instantly made this movie his favourite.
I absolutely love when the raft lands on the snow and in the water. It’s literally just a pile of clothes 😂 not even a dummy inside. It’s my favorite part.
😂😂
"Where'd this romance come from"
BENJI I'VE BEEN ASKING THE SAME THING SINCE I WAS A KID😂 Dad always got a kick out of little princess dress+indy hat wearing me annoyed with her the whole time😂 (dramatic sighs, eyerolls, and glares I'm told)
Shortround will forever be the reason my dad and I LOVE this movie though😂💖
Hahaha right!? And yes short round is amazing
When I was a kid this was honestly my favorite Indiana Jones movie. I didn't know at the time that fans hated it (It is problematic though, but I think that wasn't the reason they hated it)
I cannot get over Benji's face just before he says "that's not how that works" 😄😄
😂
These movies are like a where’s Waldo for the Wilhelm Scream
One time in college, a professor asked the class what our favorite action movie was. I said this one, and they looked at me funny and said it was racist. I went back and rewatched and... yeah. Nostalgia is one hell of a drug, and privilege blinds. I'll always have a fondness for this movie but it's important to acknowledge its faults instead of excusing them because "it's a product of it's time"
So true
@@PinkPopcast The lore is that the "Indian" food was supposed to be weird, bc it's not actually Indian food, but rather the food that the Thuggee eat, which is what got Indy on that track to begin with. It's also why the British army guy knew to get his men towards the end, bc he also recognized the Thuggee cuisine. The movie leaves that part out, to its detriment.
@@dmytro732 context is helpful! Thanks
The surprise CallMeKevin (video of a man kicking a toy baby across the garden) took me out
This is such an entertaining series, I've never seen these movies all the way through
Temple of Doom is the film I remember the most from Indiana.
Best commentary to this movie, ever. Y'all had me cracking up the whole time... even the ad was hilarious. This was great 😂😂😂😂
😆😆
I don't think boobies would have stopped Harrison Ford. I love this movie. It's my favorite Indy film. By the way, I suspect the showrunners for "Once Upon a Time" must have seen this movie. The show's heart ripping thing is very similar to what was shown in this film. I think we all know Short Round is the real hero of this tale.
Ooh that’s right! They loved ripping hearts out in that show
@@PinkPopcast You remember.
U guys should watch The Prince of Egypt. I love that movie
Dying at Rizzo's "I think they're really there" comment with the atrociously bad 3D renders in the water scene at the end. First time I've ever noticed that lol.
😂😂
This film was my fave of the original three. I still shout KALI MA, SHAKTI DE.. every now and then. For funsies. Also… I hit the double pause. And then blushed. Love you guys
Btw can I just say how I love seeing Rizzo in his Film Nerd Era with the glasses?
Seriously, every time I hear Willie’s voice I’m literally saying, “Don’t you EVER shut up…” under a coach pillow when watching this. I’m ACTUALLY beginning to agree with George Clooney’s Batman when he stated, “This is why Superman works alone.”. And that’s saying something from a dude who hates Batman and Robin….
I feel like you guys would enjoy reacting to RRR on this channel. Really well-choreographed action scenes plus a red-hot bromance. And this time it's not orientalism but the colonized telling their own story.
It's on my personal list for sure!!!
Ryan George call out! Lmao!😂
"So, she doesn't catch fire that close to the lava? How does that work?"
"Super easy! Barely an inconvenience!"
❤️❤️😆
This was my favourite indy movie as a kid! and I still have such a soft spot for it
🥰🥰
20:03 jfc i wasn’t expecting the CallMeKevin kicking the cooking mama baby clip
fully got the timestamp wrong somehow tf
😂
Benji: The first one was kinda long [looks over at Rizzo's face] BUT I enjoyed watching with you and seeing your reactions!
Rizzo [happy first pump]
😊😂The best friendship on youtube!
🥰🥰🥰😁
It sucks that this is my least favorite movie bc i hated Willie so much and the temple stuff always scared me as a kid, and yet Short Round has always been my favorite companion. Even as a child Ke had sooooo much on screen charisma. Tbh I wouldnt mind him continuing the series/making a spinoff of him and his adventures
That would be so awesome if they did, he was such an awesome character
What a disappointing character Willie was after Marion, too. It's like the writers said, "Well, we had a female character with backstory, smarts, and agency last time. That's enough of that!"
@@MsNanceePants so true 😭
I mean who on Earth would ever love Willie? Seriously, the amount of times she becomes literally useless to the plot as well as nearly getting Indy and Short Round killed. Even when watching this film for the first time, I seriously wished he went evil, just to have Willie sacrifice….
My favorite one out of the entire fancies. I used to try and do the entire 'Anything goes' Chorography. Cuz I'm a theater kid , and nothing screams out indina jones more, then musical theater. lol
I don't know what I love better, Benji feeling out to HSM or Rizzo feeling out to Indiana.
😂
You should watch the making of this flick. (It’s on UA-cam.)
There’s a moment during the filming of the opening dance sequence, where Spielberg actually tells George Lucas that he wanted to open this one with another rolling rock.
I love that when the boat is falling into the water it is clearly two locations haha. One is definitely an open pit quarry that would not have a coursing river at the bottom haha that whole scene was ridiculous and amazing
The Ads are getting more and more iconic. 😂 #SKILLLCHER
I love that they basically stole the scene with the antidote for Doctor Who but the actors in it pull it off so great that you cannot be mad at them...
I guess it's not spoiling anything if I leave out who says it:
Have you brought me a pretty toy?
- [Removes her earring] This is a Calisto Pulse. It can disarm micro-explosives from 20 feet.
- What kind of micro-explosives?
- The kind I just put in your wine.
But well... if you saw it, you know why they stole it.
13:18 nah I don't think it's about depicting other cultures as "weird" or "gross" because this is obviously NOT Indian food. This is Temple of DOOM and it's pretty obvious as soon as they arrive that something is off inside the palace so the food is reflecting that (food of... Doom), it's also a foreshadowing of what is yet to come later in the movie.
I always love your reactions!! It just brings joy to my day!! This has always been my favorite Indy movie, I was surprised to hear that people don't like it. And I realized this was the first one I watched, so it wasn't until later I appreciated Raiders. It also dawned on me that after I saw this movie, I had a huge crush on Indiana...lmao!! Little 8 or 9 year old me, imagining going on adventures with Indiana Jones!!! Excited to see the reaction to the Last Crusade!
It’s definitely one of Rizzo’s favorite now after rewatching!
Thanks for the positive wish! 38:48
Who else is part of the Double Pause Gang?
Im so glad Rizzo docent like this movie, and that his favourite is last crusade(mine as well)
This is my favorite Indiana Jones movie ❤
It wasn’t until a few years back, I saw the cliff face scene with the water, how obvious the cgi was 😅
When I was younger, I was so amazed hahah
😂
LOVE you two! But just so you know, this is my favorite IJ movie. Mostly because this was the first one I saw as a kid. My little girl heart was crushing massively over adult Indiana with his shirt off in the ritual cave scene so that's probably why. Haha. Even though some of the stuff doesn't age well (e.g. the whole dinner sequence), I still love it and chalk that up to being of it's time. The 3rd one is my 2nd favorite but only by a slight margin. As always, you guys gave me so much joy watching this. Keep it up!❤
Yes, that insert WAS hilarious 😄😄
Yayyyyy!!!! More video game character outfit sponsorship!!!! Love you guys! ❤❤ you make my day
These edits were hilarious 😂 I love the Toy Story one
It’s crazy to think that if it weren’t for this and gremlins, pg-13 would probably still exist but it’s crazy that this was pg.
Which sidebar but that reminds me, for next pride you should react to can’t stop the music. It’s a movie based on and starring the village people. It also stars Steve Gutenberg and Caitlyn Jenner too but I bring it up because it’s pg, but there’s a scene in a YMCA (of course) and full frontal men’s shower scene! And it was PG!
Don’t forget Ghostbusters and Splash. Seriously, the amount of adult stuff in those movies makes you wonder how they didn’t get Rated-R. Especially Splash when it was made by a company OWNED BY DISNEY. Talk about trying to remain “family friendly”.
@@osmanyousif7849 it’s crazy how films were rated back then. After reading your comment I wanted to see other movies rated pg but shouldn’t, here are a few more…
Jaws, sixteen candles, poltergeist, invasion of the body snatchers, 2001: space odyssey, Monty python and the holy grail, and the one that shocked me the most, spaceballs, which I love but that came out after pg-13 was introduced. That movie is filled with sexual scenes. The 80s were a crazy time.
Lovin the stache Rizzo 🤌🏽🥰
I still love that he named a club Obi Wan.
I think Poltergeist was a big reason for the current rating system also, because of the whole guy ripping off his own face thinking and what not
GAG!!
Gawd I frickin' hate that feast scene with the snakes & the things inside the snake & the eyeballs & brains.......BLEH
I need a paper bag..
I love the clip of CallMeKevin kicking the baby. ICONIC
They did the next one!
17:12
This is actually the prequel.
Raiders were set in 1936, this one in 1935.
Rizzo, I for one support your dream of becoming like Indiana Jones. I think it could still happen. And Harrison Ford is clearly on his way out, so there's gotta be an opening.
What’s fun to remember is that Spielberg is married to Kate Capshaw…. Imagine the conversations about what he made her do!
I think that the 1964 MGM television series The Man From U.N.C.L.E. was meant to be America's answer to James Bond. I do think Indiana Jones is a better rival though :-) If you guys are watching/reacting to 80's childhood classics I would recommend the film LADYHAWKE.
i had no idea this movie was considered the worst of the og 3! i remember enjoying this one the most tbh. i thought the heart removing thing was so cool even tho it freaked me out (i was definitely much younger than 13 when i was watching these movies 😂)
12:10 And aren’t you Grady… the caretaker?😂 He played Grady in ‘The Shining’
PLZ DO 17 AGAIN!!!
The opening to this movie is one of my favorites ever
Rewatching and editing it was such a joy! I never realized how awesome and unique the opening was!
Fun fact: a lingam (the thing he’s searching for) is basically a stone penis. Enjoy coming up with alternative movie titles with this knowledge
I thought it looked like a Shiva lingam! Tho with the inaccuracies in this film, i'm not surprised its meaning wasn't mentioned
@@juliatakacs3994 the second episode ever of Expedition Unknown actually does a really good job of explaining them. They spend it looking for the famous one from Mahendraparvata
😂
i watched this movie when i was like 8 and it scarred me 😭😭
Seems reasonable lol
You guys should do a scream queens reaction I think it would be amazing
Omg we loved that show! We want to do it for the channel at some point!
I hope they react to Teen Beach Movie some day
😁
benji: i like good guys
*steven from hill house has entered the chat* *peter from bly manor has entered the chat* *christian gray has entered-*
😂😂 that was cause they’re hot, not cause they’re bad lmao
Yeeess the last crusade is also my favorite of all timeee ❤❤❤can't wait
Apparently the shooting star at 9:45 is supposed to be the aliens from the next movie!
Oooh
This movie scared me when I was little, so I stopped watching it and I still, to this day, have not gone back and watched this movie, but I have seen all of the others. I went with my dad and sister to see the new one last week on the 4th of July, and I was thinking about going back to rewatch the movies when Dial of Destiny is out for streaming, so maybe I'll go back and watch this then. I also just learned about there having been a Young Indiana Jones show a few days ago, so I may watch that at some point.
I can see how it would be scary as a kid, but now it’s just ridiculously fun to watch lol
@@PinkPopcast I've never seen this one past the ripping out hearts part, so I never knew how much fun there was in the rest of the movie until I watched this reaction, so I'm definitely going to watch it when I have a chance to watch them all together. I also didn't realize some of the callbacks in Dial of Destiny until I watched your Raiders reaction, and it made the scenes even better for me.
(Also, I would love to recommend you guys watch Red, White & Royal Blue when it comes out next month. I love the book, and I've become obsessed with the trailer since it came out, and I'm clearly not the only one because it's managed to get almost 5.5 million views here on UA-cam in 5 days.)
I can't wait until Sean comes on!!! Last Crusade is my favorite!
When people complain about the new movies being too unrealistic I like to point out the bucket of water issue in this movie lol.
😂😂
Not a fan of this movie ‘coz nobody serves snakes at dinner (unless you’re proving a point) but the redeeming factor is that Amrish Puri and ROSHAN Seth are good Indian actors.
It’s very dated and problematic for that scene especially
Yeah there was a lot of ignorance in this movie as fun as it was. The villagers aren't even Indian, they're Sri Lankan actors and actresses speaking Sinhalese which is not a language used in India.
Yeah, I was never a big Indiana jones person growing up and rewatching it that scene was just awful. I mean, considering the number of people who still believe that Asian cultures eat unspeakable things it’s not for nothing, either.
I just.. I never.. I've never actually seen the second Indiana Jones apparently. I just kept thinking "this is pretty much the worst video ever made" in Napoleon Dynamites voice.
Not your reaction though you guys are always great and I love Dr. Rizzo
Contrary to the opinion of others I still really like this film but I will admit it did scare it shit out of me as kid 🤣
Ah it does look like Scooby doo!
Impossible? Oh Benji. We've seen far more impossible on Broadway 😂
Bromance goals.
ooooh...next up is THE BEST of the entire Indy franchise!!! LAST CRUSADE!!!! Totally agree with you!!
rizzo are you going to see the new indiana jones?
We definitely saw it opening night lol he liked it but not a contender for favorite
This was my favorite Indiana jones movie...i think it was because it did scare me
Nice! Lol
13:03 - plenty of ethnocentrism here, with a dash of xenophobia, but mostly orientalism. Hooray!
EDIT: perhaps we shouldn't judge a film too hard for their utter lack of cultural research when the main character says, "As a scientist..." like, 10 times but is never actually depicted _doing _*_research_* .
Wait this is the least liked indy movie? This ones my favorite. This like when I found out that ppl didn't like Jar Jar Binks even though I liked him as a kid.
Also I love how in the indiana jones lego video game they gave Millie the power of breaking glass with her screams
Geez, when the actual Lego game makes her much useful than the actual movie, then I hate to say, the movie REALLY HAS A PROBLEM.
This one always makes me think of the third Mummy movie. Have you guys done that series yet? Because it’s a must lol
Not yet lol
@@PinkPopcast I will be waiting on pins and needles.
Am I watching the Nostalgia Critic? Who trashes a movie the whole time and then claims they loved it in the last 60 seconds of the video?
We’re not robots, we’re allowed to have nuanced opinions. Also when am I trashing it? In this video I clearly love the music, short round, action, story, vibes, cinematography, absurdity, stunts, behind the scenes tidbits, inspirations, jokes, performances etc. - do I like the problematic depictions of South Asian culture? No. Do I think Willie is a little loud an annoying? Sure. But we’re allowed to enjoy this movie our own way and if you don’t like it… keep commenting cause you’re giving us engagement 😘😘😘
@@PinkPopcastIt kinda wouldn’t be Indiana Jones if the bad guys weren’t cartoonish two dimensional portrayals of evil. It would be difficult to pay homage to the original serials without a healthy dose of xenophobia. Although I don’t think that’s exclusive to western media. All cultures have a tendency to do this to outsiders. It doesn’t really bother me here. In the end the movie does portray the villagers as normal innocent people who have been victimized by this crazy death cult. Not an entirely unknown occurrence in the world. I take the “problematic” things in this one with a grain of salt.
Kate capshaw went on to marry Steven Spielberg ❤
Great commentary as always. Can’t wait for the Last Crusade, also my favorite IJ film. It’s so interesting to read about what state of mind Lucas and Spielberg were in at the time they were making this film and how it affected the tone. I also always wondered why he did not take Willies heart. Now I realize “she’s a main character “ 😄😄😄
She didn’t need him apparently haha
well. this was as traumatizing as i remembered 😐 (jk) ohwofu I can't wait for the next two ones!!!
20:37 Why was PG-13 created? Oh, nothing major... Just a guy's still beating heart getting ripped out of his chest! 😱😱
I didnt know that this was regarded as the worst Indy movie. I've loved it since I was a little kid. Theres some great comedy and the soundtrack is so sweet! The gross parts just make it more interesting, imo
It’s definitely one of Rizzo’s favorites upon rewatch
I love the word “problematic”. It kinda makes me enjoy it even more.
Up until you guys did this I had no interest in Indiana Jones at allll❤
😅😅
Literally the worst IJ movie made imo
Mythbusters tested the raft from a plane stunt and turns out it’s possible ✈️🚣🤙🏻
Nice!! I just started casually re-watching that show lol
There is only one scene that most people pure and continuously do not like seeing the most in Indiana Jones 2 is you will know what it is.
So traumatising to most people including myself meaning that cruel scene! 🫣🫣🫣
