One of my favorite movie series, I adore each movie in the set in it's own way, even the much-hated Crystal Skull. With the anniversaries of both Temple Of Doom and The Last Crusade coming up, no better time for this. Rank all four of them in your order of preference. My ranking I'm sure will raise some eyebrows but it goes:


Temple Of Doom
Raiders Of The Lost Ark
Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull
The Last Crusade


Bear in mind I love them all and the latter two are actually pretty close for me, on some days I like Last Crusade better than Skull. I think Raiders is the best in a lot of ways but I find Temple Of Doom the most entertaining. A great series and if they're serious about a fifth one I'll for it as long as it's good.

    Young Indy TV movies





    Crystal Skull

    Crystal Skull was ok during the first act but completely falls apart when Marion is introduced and never recovers.

    last crusade
    raiders of lost ark
    temple of doom
    crystal skull

    In crusade liked the addition of sean connery and action was top notch. temple lacked only because it was set in one location unlike the other films, and was kind of boring imo

    Last crusade easily: the chemistry between Connery and Ford, the humour
    Raiders: Classic filmmaking
    Temple: entertaining sequel

    The last crusade is underated........ crystal skull story wise is cool, but the movie
    is mad forgettable probably due to the fact that the movie was made in the 2000s and
    not in the early 80s like the rest.........

    last crusade is my favorite
    raiders was dope , thats your introduction to indy
    temple of doom like many said is entertaining as hell.......

    Crystal skull i only watch once and didnt like it, need to rewatch it again.........
    Thought the exterrestial story line was a dope storyline for indy........


    crusade was my favorite however, it went the raiders of the lost ark route
    with the biblical artifacts, mix with the relationship with his pops which made for
    a great movie in my eyes........

    Indy looking for the cup that jesus ? from for immortality.......
    the lil challenges he had to go through in order to get to the cup,
    like walking that invisible ground........even the part with the guardian
    telling the criminal dude to choose from the cup and to choose wisely......
    and the chick picking out the most extravagant cup for him to drink from,
    not realizing that jesus would never drink from a cup made of gold and rubies.....



    i dont know i saw that movie when i was a younger and to this day that ? stuck with me......


    all of indy movies were dope as hell........talking about this i think im a rewatch all of it
    including crystal skull to refresh me memory...

    To me personally they should either re due the new indiana jones with a new actor....
    same storylines, just a new actor and updated 2016 graphics......

    or they just make an entire new movie with a new story line with a new actor as indiana jones.......


    i dont wanna see harrison ford back in action as indy especially with all the new technology out in 2016
    it just dont look right to me, thats part of the reason i didnt like crystal skull, it just looked weird.....


    i thought maybe having indy mentoring a new indiana jones would be dope but than the movie
    wont be called indiana jones no more.......

    picture if we new nothing about nathan drake from uncharted and harrison ford who is old and
    of course a professor decides to helps mentor a student of his

    who name is nathan to take up his legacy......

    That would be a nice transition into a whole new world with a new indy, but it will be called nathan drake.....

    i think that would work......... remember im just using nathan drake as an example i dont mean to really use nathan drake
    from uncharted...
