The first one is an amazing movie that's exciting from start to finish. 100% Pure Entertainment.

Temple of Doom is fun, but it tries to go for Bigger is Better, and it doesn't always work. Also the tone of this movie is so uneven going from very dark to slapstick in seconds. Willie Scott?  Lookingup So Annoying.

Last Crusade is pretty solid but it tries to copy the original film's formula too much. I think it was trying to go for a safe bet after Doom got panned by so many critics.

Crystal Skull... Oh boy.  Drink  Horrible beginning and Horrible ending, with an entertaining middle section in the jungles.

First movie's great, like RD said, 100% pure entertainment.

I probably like Temple of Doom more than most people.  It doesn't annoy me quite as much as it does others, I guess it's fairly fast paced, and overall a good fun time.  Not in the same league as the original though.

Really didn't care too much for the Last Crusade.  I dunno, it felt uninspired, like everyone involved was just doing it for a paycheck. 

Haven't seen Crystal Skull, but I'll check it out one of these days.  Maybe when it shows up on Netflix streaming   TeddyR

I really like "Temple of Doom" and alot of people don't rate it as high as "Last Crusade." I like them in the order they were realeased. "Raiders" was the best. "Doom" was great. "Crusade" was really good. But unfortunatly "Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls" was a steaming pile of dog crap! I know Indy always delt with the suppernatural in small doses, but UFO's? Really? WTF!

I don't hate Crystal Skull. I thought it was a decent movie, but it wasn't on the level of any of the first 3.

I also didn't hate Crystal Skull. I DO however think it's not on par with the rest.

1.) Temple Of Doom - I never got the hate and still don't.  It has a decent pace and some really cool visuals.  The plot is a welcome jump into a different stylel of religion featured in the first one.

2.) Lost Ark - great, great fun and adventure.  Truly captures the serials that inspired it.

3.) Last Crusade - I found Connery and Ford had great chemistry together on the screen.  Plus the pace was great.  My favorite part is the young Indy backstory in the beginning.  He wasn't originally afraid of snakes until he fell into a vat of them.

4.) Crystal Skull - Terrible...painful...probably could have been great if Lucas butted the frig out of it.  Oh and Shia Lebouf ruins every movie I've seen him in.  He's the male version of Sandra Bulock for me.

Raiders of the Lost Ark = Excellent movie.

Temple of Doom = Underrated.

Last Crusade = Kickass.

Kingdom of the Crystal skull doesn't exist in my opinion.

1. Raiders of the Lost Ark (It's in my Top 3 favorite films of all time)
2. Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
3. Last Crusade
4. Temple of Doom (Once did an entire riff on the film my young cousins before we even knew what riffing was).

Oh and Shia Lebouf ruins every movie I've seen him in.

*Gasp*  So you don't like Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind or does that not count since you don't see because he was a voice actor?

The scene where Willie Scott is changing clothes in the jungle and screams at everything bothers me sooo much, it's painful.
