Really cannot wait for this..Does anyone know, since you're all rambling on about Spielberg, if they're going to do a Jaws boxset?

Yeah, there will probably be individual releases of all four and four movie box set. I'd personally rate all four movies like this:

Raiders: 10/10
Temple of Doom: 7/10
Last Crusade: 8/10
Crystal Skull: 8/10

I surely hope not. 2 was ok, but 3 and Revenge were worse than awful.

You rate Raider only 20% better than Crystal Skull, and place CS on par with Last Crusade? You're a little more forgiving than I am!

Raiders 11/10
Temple 7/10
Crusade 8/10
Crystal Skull 6/10(the saving grace for me was

I like Crystal Skull. It just worked for me. It also impressed me that Ford did most of his own stunts at his age.

Perhaps next summer to coincide with Shark Week

Just a thought!

Don't get me wrong, I like it too...it's just that Raiders set the bar so high.
Crystal Skull was, in no means, a bad film! Had it been the first in the series, it could have been a huge blockbuster. I think it just suffered from having extremely large shoes to fill.
I'm hoping they include it in the set and make it a quad vs. tri.

BillieCassin · 06-19-2011, 02:27 PM

My relationship with these films is so funny.

Somehow I missed them growing up. I didn't see them until I was a teenager and I was babysitting for a family that had them. I've seen them a few times. I had the DVD set for years, and then I ended up selling it when I was slightly downsizing my box set collection a couple of years ago knowing it was stuff I wouldn't watch between then and when I had HD. I watched them through once with the commentaries (I think?) the day before I sold them.

So I'm not a *huge* fan, though I do quite like them. But I'm also a huge Disney park fan, and I love the Disneyland ride and still enjoy the old tired show at the Studio's in Florida. However, I'm very much looking forward to this release. I can't for sure say day one - depends on the price - but it will be on my list to get as soon as it hits a reasonable price.

Indeed, they were not very good, but It'd be cool to see them released together and I'm a sucker for a bad monster movie

Btw; Totally agree with you on your Indy ratings! I pry would have put Last Crusade at a 9/10, but I really did enjoy Crystal Skull.

Well if we are rating, here's my 2 cents

Raiders: 10/10 (not one for going over)
Temple: 6/10 (Still probably my least favorite, to include Crystal Skull...I hate Short Round and the Mine scene was a bit much)
Last Crusade: 9/10 (I enjoyed the chemistry between Harrison Ford and Sean Connery)
Crystal Skull: 7/10 (I enjoyed this film more than I thought I would. I was pleasantly surprised. Again, keeping in mind the genre.

I think you are right on with your ratings, sums up my view on the series as well.

Welp here is my 2 cents

Raiders 4/4 Great film one of the 10 best films of the 1980's.

Temple 2/4 Fun little summer film, not that great though. Did have one of the best opening scenes ever....
Crusade 2/4 Same as Above

Crystal Skull 1/2 /4 Terrible film that should have never been made.

amoergosum · 06-19-2011, 03:17 PM

My rating:

Raiders: 10/10
Temple: 8/10
Crusade: 10/10
Crystal Skull: 4/10

If you have a PS3 you can save the pictures directly to the hard drive and view it on your TV. It really looks amazing.

Wow!! Just F-ing WOW!!!! Thanks for the pics! They really do look amazing. My excitement meter just went off the charts!

Edit: Can you see the film crew in the reflection of Indy's machete?? If so, that's pretty damn amazing! Excitement meter doubled AGAIN!!

Edit #2: There, tags applied!

Sorry, no..."Legend," while being a mediocre movie at best, is also a visual feast of sorts, and it was only $14.99. More than anything, given their spotty track record, I wanted to see the quality of work Universal did on the release, which is why I purchased it...

This is an entirely different scenario. First of all, considering it's Paramount, I'm sure the transfers on these will be of fine quality, so that's a non-issue for me. Secondly, I do like adventure serials (which is what "Raiders" is), I just didn't particularly care for any of the three sequels (at least not enough to warrant purchasing them). But the fact of the matter is that I'm not paying a hefty box-set price for only one movie. Now if they release the box-set and then six months later it drops to $19.99 or $14.99 like the "Back to the Future" trilogy did, then I'll get it, because that's what I would be willing to spend on "Raiders" alone. As it is, I'm quite content with my "Raiders" DVD, and considering it's not a film I revisit all that often anyway, it will be no problem for me to wait for an individual release, or a major price drop on the box-set once it comes out.
