One of my alltime favorites. I need to pick up the DVD.

2. Great Flick. Too bad Spielberg changed the name for the DVD. |
|
It was originally just called Raiders of the Lost Ark––no Indiana Jones.
Also, look quickly for Alfred "Doctor Octopus" Molina in his screen debut as Indy's South American guide.

5. Hell of an actor, Molina |
|
Really liked him in Boogie Nights and Frida.
I've been watching Raiders since I was a kid and it never registered that it was he.

I should have also recognized him from Chocolat and Maverick (the one with Mel Gibson). I guess he just has one of those faces...

I love Chocolat! :D
Alfred's doing well on Broadway now as Tevia.

7. At least they didn't change the title in the film's actual credits. |
|
It's probably just as much G. Lucas' fault. He's going to drive me mad with his obsessive tinkering with past films.

3. I was just thinking about the end of the movie |

I would love to see the penultimate scene -- the one where the Nazis open the Ark -- remade with Cheney as Todt, Ashcroft as Belloq, and Rumsfeld as the other guy (the SS officer, or whatever he was, on the podium with them).
Note to our special lurker "Mike": my remake would use special effects, not actual violence or face-melting.

I have a fedora -- but it's not nearly as cool as Indy's.

"intriguing" (Please don't forget to bring your whip though) ;-)
Raiders of the lost Ark is my ATF movie.

Watching the credits, it listed a "Michael Moore" as a Second Unit Director. Can't be the same person, can it?

15. Yes, but you can't buy the DVD..... |
|
Unless you get the set of all 3. I really don't like the "Temple of Doom"--not enough to own it.
But that's what Netflix is for!
