Currently I still run the 1991 Letterbox Laserdisc because it has the untouched film and the best soundmix of any release IMO.

And new scans for Temple and Crusade are a must since the old ones are still very tied to video masters in terms of timing and fine detail as they are indeed older master largely.

Seeing as Raiders is already a recent Spielberg-supervised 4K remaster, it's most likely going to be what is used for the UHD version. Temple of Doom and Last Crusade, however, those should definitely be new scans. We've had the same old HD masters for those films used since the 2003 DVD release (though they were really good for their time compared to a lot of other DVD-era masters).

Crystal Skull will be a 2K DI upscale-- that film, despite being shot on film, always had a weird artificial look to me, I think being down to some of the effects and cinematography. Not sure if a new HDR transfer will make this better or worse.
