Indiana Jones And The Thread Of Cash-Ins - Blu-ray Forum

Mikezilla3k · 07-14-2023, 11:16 PM

A thread for Indiana Jones films and "inspired" adventure films.

The "Inspired Films":

As always, suggestions are always appreciated.

88 Films released Ark of the Sun God in the UK. Haven’t watched yet but I’ll sure it qualifies.

Seventh curse from 88 as well.

It's too bad Harrison Ford never made a movie as popular as High Road to China. I feel like he could have been a star.

Guess to get really technical the Tomb Raider films probably wouldn’t exist without Indy.

Also maybe Treasure of the Amazon from Vinegar Syndrome.

What I'd give for a 4k of both Stone and Nile... Damn you Disney.

haha, it's interesting if the roles were reversed. High Road is a decent movie though. It gave Tom a chance to see what he could have been like as Indy. I didn't see that one until home video though. I did see both of the King Solomon Mines films (w/ Richard Chamberlain) in the theater. The first one being the most of fun of the two, and if people think Temple of Doom has racist overtures, it pales in comparison to The Lost City of Gold. Cannon can get away w/ that.

I would include Treasure but since it doesn't have a cover, it would just show up as blank.

These probably don't count, but I wanted to bring them up;
The marketing for this film (or at least the poster) was very reminiscent of IJ, mostly due to casting Kate Capshaw.

and who can forget this film's opening sequence

Godzilla vs Mothra (1992) also had a Indiana Jones inspired opening.

I haven't picked up the BD of Dreamscape yet, hoping that gets a 4k from Shout. Another one I did see theatrically. Altho I remember a nude scene that kinda got left out of home video versions or maybe it's back in. I don't know. But, Kate Capshaw looked great in that + This one has some links to Nightmare on Elm Street.
