    The "repetitiveness" of the script isn't something to call down on it. It was intentional. This was an homage to the serials from the golden age of Hollywood. Every episode would end with a cliffhanger. It is pure, good guy-bad guy, campy fun taken to a new level. This is still my favorite movie of all time. And yes, the practical stunt work is a wonder to behold. That is something I greatly miss from most modern movies.

  • @brianimator
    @brianimator Рік тому +18

    You're right about the action beats being a little relentless, but that's actually intentional. The pic is based on old 30's era action serials like Flash Gordon. By nature these were "episodic", throwing the hero out of the frying pan and into the fire in every sequence. so Lucas and Spielberg were trying to recreate that energy.

    For a couple of your points: the ship captain's shadiness is a misdirect, he's actually a good guy and is trying to protect Indy and Marion. As for the point of the bazooka scene - it's a bluff by Indy and Belloq calls it. Belloq knows full well Indy is the same as him in terms of wanting the Ark opened.

    One of the most perfectly paced action movies of all time. There's suspense, downtime, and the great action sequences. I hate movies now that are constantly moving and even the love scenes come off like a montage because they're in too big a hurry to get to the next scene. And while I'm not religious, when Indy is dealing with philosophical questions, that's when he's at his best. When he's fighting aliens or cringey South Asian stereotypes, I'm not crazy about those movies. The first and the 3rd movie do an excellent job of having those kinds of "what do you believe?" kind of undertones. I also like that Indiana Jones isn't a perfect hero. His relationship with Marian is strained because of what he did to her when she was young. And speaking of Marian, what a badass female character. People who say there were never any strong female characters in movies until recently haven't seen this or a lot of 80s movies. Karen Allen is terrific in just about everything.

      MCU fan here from the beginning and I never thought about that. It's well-known that Hitler was obsessed with the occult but the "trinkets in the desert" line to me just meant his archeological expeditions in general (like his search for Atlantis). It never occurred to me he was possibly talking about the Ark of the Covenant and Indiana Jones.

  • @jefferoni1984
    @jefferoni1984 Рік тому +9

    One of my all time faves. I think younger viewers are used to the way movies are paced nowadays. Attention spans are shorter, so they tend to write scripts that offer some sort of pay off earlier in the story because they’re afraid they will lose the viewer’s interest. They often start right in the action whereas older movies tend to spend more time on exposition and backstory so you have a bigger payout emotionally at the end, a little closer to how novels are structured. It’s a little sad though because you lose the connection to the characters when you rush through everything. Modern action movies just end up feeling like video games with tons of explosions and special effects, rather than an actual story. Just my two cents.

    Somewhat long tale. One night was watching this movie on cable. Moms family friends came over asking help filling out forms (Mexicans). They were a very religious couple (no tv, radio, newspaper) but were very nice. They visited when Indy and Marion were trapped by Belloq with the snakes. They refused to watch the movie until my mom said they were looking for the Ark of the Covenant, they surmised it was okay because it was a "religious" movie. The husband LOVED the movie with the action, snakes, statues, explosions, fighting, shooting etc. His wife screamed every time a bad guy died (one of those horror girls scream) and kept telling him to leave. He kept saying "En un minuto, Ok Ok" and just kept watching-her biggest scream was when Indy forced the German car went over the cliff. They both thought the scene of Indy under the truck, using the whip and dragging himself back to the truck was too much. I was happy that they really enjoyed the movie. p.s - one month later they stopped by and I was watching "The Terminator"-he liked that movie too.

    YES!!!
    LOVE THIS MOVIE!!
    I watched all the Indiana Jones movies on NBC back in the early 90's.
    Originally, this s was going to be a James Bond movie back in 1978, following the success of Jaws and Star Wars, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg were on vacation in Hawaii with their wives,they were filming walking on a beach, and Lucas pitched the idea to Spielberg as he told him about Indiana Smith, before he was named Jones, where he fights the Nazis to get hold of the Ark Of The Covenant, until Spielberg said, "Wait a minute, George, I think I have an idea for our next film."
    Before Harrison Ford was cast as Jones, Tom Selleck was cast but had to drop out to film the hit series MAGNUM P.I., while Jeff Bridges, Nick Nolte, Kurt Russell, Tim Matheson, Peter Coyote, Michael Douglas, John Shea, and Jack Nicholson were considered for the role.
    The sound effects for Indy's gun is that of a 30-30 Winchester Rifle.
    The machine gun sounds are from an AK 47.
    The punch sounds are that of someone hitting a pile of leather jackets with a baseball bat.
    The sound of the spirits coming out of the Ark are that of Seals, Sea Lions, and Dolphins played backwards or sped up to make it sound otherworldly.
    Some of the cast and crew had food poisoning except for Ford and Spielberg who had Spaghetti O's and PBJ Sandwiches. It was 113 degrees where they were filming in Tunisia but thankfully they filmed the climax at Elstree Studios London England.
    The film was a box office and critical success making $390 million dollars against an $18 million dollar budget.
    It was nominated for 8 Oscars including Best Picture but won for
    Best Sound Editing
    Best Film Editing
    Best Production Design
    Best Sound Effects
    Best Visual Effects.
    It's one of the best Action movies ever made.

    The scene where Indy threatens to blow up the Ark is one of the main scenes where both Indiana and Belloq have the same love of history. They may see the outcomes of archaeology very differently (Belloq being the darker version of Indiana). The first scene where they meet established the competitiveness of the two characters, and the second where Indy is drunk and thinks Marion is dead...did establish the same thing as the bazooka scene...but with Indiana being sober, the point hits home better for him.

    Notes on the Ark of the Covenant: It was never actually used as a weapon in the Bible. One man died from touching it. A city of Philistines was plagued by boils after they captured it from the Israelites in battle. They put it in the temple of their god Dagon, but in the morning the statue of Dagon had fallen face first onto the ground in front of the Ark. The Ark represented God's sacred presence.

    The captain of the boat who was trying to help Indy and Marion was Captain Katanga. I always thought he was protecting them even as he had to give up the ark. First by misleading the Germans by claiming Indy was dead and by trying to keep Marion aboard his ship under the guise of trafficking b/c he knew Marion would be safe with him/them rather than the Germans.

    As a big fan of both Harrison Ford and Steven Spielberg, this is one of my favorite movies.I've lost track of how many times I've seen it. For me, it will always be called just Raiders of the Lost Ark. The "Indiana Jones and the" was added later, after the sequels were made.
    The scene where Indy shoots the guy with the sword was supposed to be a big fight, but Indy, along with the rest of the crew came down with dysentery and were very sick that day. They tried filming the fight, but couldn't get it to look right, so they came up with just shooting the guy. Spielberg carried his own canned food, so he was the only one to not get sick.
    The call letters on the sea plane near the beginning of the film were OB-CPO. Images of R2-D2 and C-3PO appear in the hieroglyphs on a wall inside the Well of Souls.
    Now you have to watch the rest of the series.
    The Temple of Doom is a prequel and, in my opinion, the worst of the franchise so far, though there are those who do like it.
    The Last Crusade is as good as this one, and costars Sean Connery
    The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull gets a lot of hate, but I liked it, even though it costars Shia Labeouf.

      It might have to do with changing tastes or simply growing up.

Afterward I hated the movie and regretted even watching it all. Years later as an adult I watched it again and couldn't believe what a great movie it was.

    - in other respects I agree now w this point about the repetitiveness - that aspect draws too much attention to itself - though in fairness it was the 30s cliffhanger formula itself that Lucas and Spielberg were most interested in here, more than characters or themes -

    This movie is near perfect in what it attempts to do. I think what I find most remarkable about the film is, often in action adventure movies you have your action scenes or set pieces. Between those, however, as a viewer your just biding time until the next exciting action scene. What Speilberg manages to pull off here, with the help of his amazing cast, Williams' perfect score, and his unique directorial choices, is he makes those interims between the action equally as engaging as the action scenes themselves. The ominous mood in certain scenes, the comedic banter in others, the mysticism etc. It all combines to make one flowing, joy ride of a flick. A true monument in the genre.

    Raiders is actually meant to be a homage to the old serial movies of the 40s. So the ambiguous nature of the opening of the Ark is what makes that scene great. It's ultimately been explained as the Wrath of God carried out by the Angel of Death against the Nazis for defying God's Will by opening the Ark. Sallah kind of eludes to this when he says 'If the Ark is there in Tanis, then it was something man was not meant to disturb. Death has always surrounded it''. There is a deleted the Old man warns Indy to never look at the Ark once it's opened, or he'll plainly die. It's possible Spielberg chose to leave this scene out to not give away the ending.

    I always commented on how they got the math wrong on the staff. The person told them essentially the staff needed to be about 6 feet high, and take back one, so, it would be shorter, closer to 5 feet high. One Kadam is essentially one foot. Yet, Indy is shown with a staff that is much much longer than that, even when put into the hole. So, either Indy is really short, or the length of the staff is wrong. I think if they would have said 8 feet high, and 7 feet after taking back some, they would have been OK. I replayed those scenes several times to make sure I was not hearing wrong, and confirmed they messed up.
