Unfortunately, they're planning a fifth one, and possibly, will lead to a sixth one. George Lucas has already ruined one great trilogy by adding another one into the series. He shall not do it again!

Raiders of the Lost Ark is favorite followed by Last Crusade.

Don't care for Temple of Trash. The pulling the heart out is ....out there....and the voo-doo. Didn't like the voo-doo.

I saw the new one. It was alright. Well. I really hated how he survives the bomb blast in the fridge, goes way up in the air, and then it lands and he just walks out. :wacko:

Then, they are inconsistent with the magnetism. Can't quite recall, just remember realizing they were inconsistent with it.

I hated the ending.......I mean...come on.......that was stupid.

I'll stop here before this turns into an essay. :mellow:

They actually addressed the magnetism thing during the movie. I was saying to myself "that stuff isn't magnetic!" Turns out they realized that too, and came up with an excuse. Don't remember what it was, but honestly, it doesn't even matter. :P Doesn't even have to be believable.

Could have been better. :mellow:

Even if you give them the magnetism, there is a bunch of other items to attack.

Agreed. I tend to believe that they're all quite good though.

I like them all. The first three are patterned after 1930s serials, while the fourth one is patterned after a 1950s "B" movie.

:yes:

Now that I think about your B movie comment, it's quite right. It reminds me of the original "Day the Earth Stood Still", in a way. Sort of because of the tone and way things work out in it.

B grade movies are a true artform. Seriously.
It's probably unintentional, but unintentional brilliance is brilliance nontheless.

Beast of Yucca Flats is the pinnacle of the form. Look up it; you shant be disappointed. ;)
