Why do people hate Temple of Doom? It's ridiculous and over the top in the best way. It's better than Last Crusade, which is just a worse Raiders.

No one hates Temple of Doom, it was just the least popular of a great trilogy. Also the bugs scene was extremely gross.
>>
Always my favorite.
Got tons of shit over the years because of that, not so much lately.
>>
willie scott ruins most scenes she's in

It's the one I have nostalgia for because they cast a kid in it, so I watched it a ton growing up, but now I can acknowledge it's not the strongest of the 3, even though I still love it.
Last Crusade is the best one.

too many jeets in the internet

Temple of Doom IS Indiana Jones for me. To be fair it was the only one I owned on DVD, the others I had to rent (or relive via the Lego game). Oriental adventures are just way more exotic and foreign. Even Crystal Skull I would say is stronger than The Last Crusade.

First off, thanks for the thread. I never considered it, but it is my least favorite as well now that I'm actually pondering on it.
For me, the worst was the monkey brain scene. I wasn't sure why it was necessary to be in the film. Otherwise, I didn't like the love interest as I believe she was a little too helpless and naggy nor did the little shortstack boy as he seemed generally just a way to make the movie more racy. It seems like it's only gotten more cringe as time has gone by after a fairly recent rewatch.
I would also like to say that I personally enjoy the remaining two almost equally as much as each other. I hope you have a wonderful day, Anon.

Yeah, I haven't seen it in like 15 years, watched it recently, and it was pretty good. It looks and sounds spectacular, modern movies can't possibly even dream to look this good. Everything since Indy gets caught and turned evil and until the end is pretty much perfect. But I was surprised how long the movie took to get there. Most of the movie was them actually getting to the Temple of Doom itself. The gross parts and edginess were pretty cool. The girl and the kid were kinda annoying, but not enough to actually piss me off.
I am doing my Indiana Jones rewatch now (minus Dial of Destiny), and while Raiders will always be the perfect 5/5 film, Temple of Doom is a solid 4/5.

It was always my favorite growing up, because unlike Raiders and Crusade, there isn’t a ton of boring exposition and setup, it just goes. Willy’s annoying, but I love it beyond that.
>>
>>221250219
Because they saw it as kids and fever hallucinated KALIMA and their hearts pulled out. It was one of my go to nightmares as a kid. Good movie.

>>221250219
Its a total rip off of James Bond in Octopussy

How so?
>>
>>221250219
I hate this fucking contrarian narrative now where people pretend like Temple of Doom is some kind of misunderstood masterpiece and Last Crusade is garbage. Really confirms my belief that 4ch is 180 degrees out of phase with reality.
>>
>>221250734
same. raiders is the better film, but temple of doom captures that "mystical east" setting so well.
>>
>>221250219
It would be a perfect sequel if the water tank didn't turn into an ocean by the end of the minecart scene.

It was extremely ridiculous that they were still worrying about the water when the tank was the size of a bedroom.

Temple of Doom is the one Indiana Jones movie that is not Jewish revenge porn. It's great.
>>
>>221250219
No real treasure to be found. Like the Jewel of the Nile.

>>221250219
One of the best children films ever. Its the Indiana Jones movie which sticks out most to me after watching it as a kid, back when cunts weren't so soft.
>>
>>221250219
hey your bot is broken. pretty sure it meant to say kingdom of the crystal skull. because that was god awful.

>>221253237
My dad would play a kalima game with my sister and I where he would pretend his hand was possessed and he had to fight it and it made him chase us around. He died when I was a kid.

Child sidekicks and brown people make everything worse.

Any day now I'm expecting somebody to claim that Die Hard 2 is the best one.

Speaking of Indiana Jones: The "cup of a carpenter" in Indy 3 is complete bullshit. The real last supper was held at a banquet hall the apostles rented. There were such places even in ancient times, for weddings and other celebrations. Such a rented banquet hall would come with some high class tableware, which is why people rented these from time to time when there was something to celebrate. The chalice used by Jesus at the last supper would thus be something nifty and expensive.
